Microwave and The Dirty Nil co-headliner at Òran Mór tonight. Both bands on top form and great sound quality in a venue I've not been at before for a gig. Great show.
Opened by English grunge duo Sick Joy, a very enjoyable start to the night.
Punk Paradox by Greg Graffin
A really interesting look at Bad Religion and the greater LA punk scene in general. The punk professor is a pretty fascinating man, it's incredible how he wove his academic career seamlessly with his musical one.
Bunny by Mona Awad
Maybe the weirdest book I've ever read but I'm pretty sure it worked. Didn't have a clue what was happening or where it was going and it constantly surprised. Very strange, ultimately enjoyable.
I don't see the fuss. Pubs are places for adults. If any pub wants to be family friendly, then that's their prerogative, but I'd have thought the default stance for a pub would be "No children allowed".
