Ozzy Osbourne - Patient Number Nine
Poor Ozzy has had quite a difficult time in the past few years. He's gone public with his Parkinson's diagnosis, has suffered a fall and a long road to recovery, caught COVID-19... Add to that decades of self abuse, and no one would blame him if he he decided to retire and enjoy some peace and quiet in his twilight years.
Friday's Playlist: The Queen is Dead
Hey! Here's a new playlist for you. It's been a while since we published one of those, partly because we were on vacation and partly because after 137 installments, we were beginning to lose our inspiration. But, yesterday's news prompted us to throw this together to mark the occasion. All of the expected songs are here... The Smiths, the Pistols... We weren't trying to be clever. Enjoy, comment and share.

KNOWER @ Grande Halle de la Villette, Paris - September 4th, 2022
KNOWER is an experimental electro duo featuring multi-instrumentalist Louis Cole and singer Genevieve Artadi. Their show is visually stunning, featuring lots of clever video projections, and highly danceable. Their rave/funk hybrid is a lot of fun and the perfect starter to the evening's main course, Scary Goldings.
