    Very excited to confirm I’m writing a 33 1/3 about George Michael’s Faith. If you see me on here, tell me to get back to work.

    We're thrilled to announce the next batch of 15 books for 33 1/3! We received so many outstanding proposals and are honored by your support of this series. Congrats to all the authors whose projects were chosen, and thank you to everyone who submitted!

    Celeste on Graham Norton talking about her debut album, now around 40 years in the making, bless her. Imagine winning BBC Sound of Imminent Lockdown.

    It also gives me another year to buy some non-ironic t-shirts.

    This month a friend and I are trying to think of band/artist t-shirts you could wear that might appear ironic but also carry a sense you actually mean it and are in fact ahead of the curve with the (re)discovery of this act. Iron Maiden doesn’t work. Nor UB40.

    The Glastonbury announcement at least gives plenty of time to plan what you're doing instead this summer. Like going to the fridge. Then back to your desk.

    My daughters (15, 12, 10 - names have been changed) enthusiastically offer out Beck, Hanson, Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson every time and they don’t even know why.

    Because they're more concerned the Daily Express might run some fucking story about a Turkish roadie overstaying on his visa, than they are about hobbling a major industry

    Doesn't surprise me the kids have just discovered sampling. The DJs on Kiss call cover versions 'remixes'.

    At some point we decided that it was impossible to represent anyone or anything in narrative art without at least tacitly endorsing it and I really want to understand why.
