Happy Birthday Will, old chum. Hope you have a fabulous day. x Will Sergeant

Sold nearly 400 now folks, but what I'm really looking for right now to keep momentum going is GIGS. From the smallest most intimate room to the biggest tent you can put in a festival field. I'm good at the talking. Open to all offers.

Day 6 - Cue Beethoven's 'Pastoral'.
The sun is out. My fever has finally broken, and I have done significant damage to a family-sized bar of Cadbury's whole nut. Thank you for your lovely messages Twitter friends.
Not today Satan. Not today! x

Day 5 - and whatever variant of Covid I am wrestling is positively Satanic. Kidneys, spine, stomach, teeth, even my eyeballs hurt. Coughing is a cattle prod to the brain, while sleep, if it comes at all, is a Jake & Dino Chapman hellscape. Apart from that... living' the dream. x

Revolutionary Spirit is a book about the glories and wonders of the margins, the magical peripheral, the future unscripted.

Winded, in the best possible way by this. Just beautiful Jeff. x

Ah, I feel sad. Another little part of the teenager I was just died. RIP Steve Harley.

You've arrived in Oslo's coolest independent book shop Paul Simpson and I didn't even have to put in a special order to get you here.

While sewing a button on just now, the voice of my Liverpool tailor, the late Peter Harland came into my head. Requesting he convert a two button suit jacket, into a three, he refused me with 'I'm sorry Sir, that will compromise the integrity of the garment'. Beautiful. x

Bought papad. Nothing says delicious & crunchy like a scary bunny, and a sedated child.

Recorded twenty four years ago, The Dream Diaries is the weirdest project I ever manifested. Freud would have a field day. x paulsimpsonmusic.bandcamp.com/album/dream-di…

June 1996. 'Invisible' my 18-minute long debut as Skyray. Recorded in Ian McCulloch's garage, and produced by Will Sergeant , I played everything. Recording the bass live without a drop-in was a blister forming mind killer. youtube.com/watch?v=1zgKJL…

29-minute long ambient piece I made to underscore a reading of my play - De Quincey in Everton (2015). x skyray.bandcamp.com/album/music-fr…
