I was indeed harumph years old on October 30th. which always signals the impending close of yet another year, this time 2015, which with all the best will possible has been something of a fleeting and not particularly polished turd amongst many others.
Birthday wise, the Good was…
Yay! The new 4K restoration of one of my all-time fave films, on Blu-ray. Thanks, Nigel. :) Steve got me some Phibes Blu goodness, too. Double Yay!
Generally, the Great was…
A brand-new David Bowie album, Blackstar, coming on January 8th! Single coming November 20th!!
Less great… Steve and I were off to see Vic & Bob on November 23rd.
I was lucky enough to catch them at the Civic in Wolverhampton back in February 1994. Seeing them again was something I was really looking forward to. Sadly, Bob recently underwent heart surgery and the 2015 shows have been cancelled. Here’s hoping he makes a speedy recovery.
Oh well. Here’s a pic of Fred taken on my birthday. We’ll ignore the serious injury he inflicted on Steve later this very day. No, Steve, please… I don’t handle the sight of blood very well…
