If you're old enough, this is much more than a meme:

So much of my favorite music on the last few pages Sturgill, Billy Strings, Nick Drake, the Dead, and current favs King Gizz. The new Gizz record Flight b741 is so damn good, and it's their 26th! Very stoked for their upcoming tour...

Any of you Nick Drake fans read the recently released book "Nick Drake: The Life"? Just finished this morning, highly recommend. By far the most comprehensive look into his life. It's not necessarily a happy book to read, but it's a must for Nick Drake fans.

I was standing in front of of this live concert in Germany. Couldn’t get in, because I had no ticket @derek111

@tody checked the last band I haven’t seen from that stack off the list a couple of weeks ago.

Metallica was a holdout for all of these years, worth the wait for sure.
Good memories from all of those bands.

@tody Hell of a 44 day window. That stack is much like what I love about Iron Heart, it's timeless.

@tody …and bought every one of them.

Found another one of these...

[Tago Mago]

@tody neck and neck between Bad Religion and NoFX

[tody]

@Tago-Mago same. wouldn't be able to decide, neither on album or song level. if you take it down to song level, it's Linoleum vs 21st Century Digital Boy.

[Tago Mago]

For me it’s linoleum vs hooray for me

@Graham not sure if you’ve had the chance to check out Sulphur Aeon:

[Graham]

Cranking it right now @Tago-Mago - will report back!

[alexxedge]

For those into heavier music check out Mutually Assured Destruction. The “Hexer” ep they released earlier this year is awesome to get a taste of what this band is about.

I remember there being a few black midi fans here. I was gutted when they announced their separation a few weeks back, but now Geordie Greep has announced a solo project launching October 5th called The New Sound, with Holy, Holy as the lead single.

Looking back, I think it was Greep's influence on the band that really caught my interest and imagination. He just has such an idiosyncratic, whimsical and surreal approach to songwriting, and I have no doubt that this new release will rival black midi's best output

[ARNC]

@T4920 just seen he’s performing in Nottingham in October (random email from a ticket site). Maybe close enough to you to work? Hope I’m not telling you something you already know!

[T4920]

@ARNC
I'll be buying tickets when they're available! Fancy it? Happy to do another city for a mini IH meet if it's easier for you?

[ARNC]

@T4920 the date doesn’t work for me, just passing it on as I got the info while I could still remember your post! Open to other options if timing/location works.

[T4920]

@ARNC if you enjoy the music and would like to go, let me know what dates work for you

If you haven't heard them already, the black midi songs that most resemble his solo output are probably Marlene Dietrich, 27 Questions and The Defence.

@T4920 sorry, I was meaning more generally. I don’t think any of the published GG dates will work for me, unfortunately.
