One day in 1992, I spent a highly-memorable day with Bob Hoskins, dressing him up as Cher. For the full story - which also stars Cilla, MC Hammer, Gazza, Rab C Nesbitt & Blur-dressed-as-Blondie - plus images by the late great Terry O'Neill, read on.

Opening tonight in the Praxis Gallery in Minneapolis, USofA, is 'Water-Sky', a new exhibition which includes my image 'The World Outside'. The opening party is just going to have to happen in my head sadly!

Felt I needed to rerun this fantastic Alex Harvey story from Tom Robinson - with thanks once more to @Shinjuku77 for first bringing it to my attention!.

Enjoyed this tonight. I fell in love with this band in 1973 and never fell out of love with them. Watched it on Amazon, but seems to be on YouTube too.

Whatever the advantages of the digital world, physical artefacts are just NICER :).Just had a catalogue in the post of the 'Water' exhibition by a US gallery which includes my image 'Pool Steps', shown here along with a couple more personal faves from the show.

Just finished 'Shifty' - the latest dystopian delight from Adam Curtis. As Lucy Mangan puts it perfectly - AC's 'compendium of documentaries I have unofficially entitled How Did Things Get So Shit? Let Me Explain in a Weirdly Uplifting Manner.'.

I wonder if the Scotland rugby team call new Loosehead Prop McBeth by his name or just refer to him as 'The Scottish Player'?.

Mother Jones broke the lead/violent crime correlation story back in 2013 @Dorianlynskey (re: Murderland) - so it's not that lead is the sole cause, but it was probably enough to turn a sociopath into a psychopath. The original is still a great read - .

The ultimate strolling troubador ensemble and a reminder, as if needed, that they are one of the best rock'n'roll bands ever to bestride a stage - and writers of some of the best songs in the canon. #libertineslove.
