Should you care to dip your toe.

Some snaps from last night’s very sweet gig from @heyhumdrum.bsky.social @mtmiseryband.bsky.social and Juice Pops in Manchester. Great to see the Humdrum tracks in rawer live form and enjoy with v good company: @agarr45.bsky.social @ineeddirection.bsky.social @jimmyc1968.bsky.social

It was great to have a good chat, Jimmy - no doubt I’ll run into you at another one, and thanks for giving my tunes a go 🙏

A brilliant gig - lovely to finally meet in the real world, Tracey!

Great to see you Jason, and another really fantastic gig! Enjoy the rest of em!

Thanks to @timdaggerboy.bsky.social for the fab review of Black Lake ✨️🙏🩷

Bodes well for the album, Neil! This track’s great though, and I reckon a single can be anything you want it to be 😊

FAMOUS BOYFRIEND DEMO TAPE LATHE, by Famous boyfriend 3 track album

Didn’t quite get my new record “23 positions in a one night sleep” together for bandcamp Friday.

Instead I’ll offer this. The demo tape me and Craig did when we were 17 that we would send to Sarah records once a week until we got the hint.

Ha - didn’t see your post, Neil. I look forward to receiving my copy!!

Sincerely appreciated, Kieron 💜💙 am also pleased that the addition of an inlay allowed to me to thank you for your extremely generous support for this album since its first release 🙏

Thank you, Neil, it means a lot as has your wonderful support 🙏💜 (been a little quiet on here of late just due to busyness - hope that doesn’t mean I’ve missed too much Shopfires news!)

Reissue of my debut album, Mirror Skies on the wonderful Subjangle label.
