i'm no one from nowhere

Ilya knows exactly what he’s doing

Hey do you guys remember when a lucky minority of us were able to see one of the most beautiful and reclusive bands in the world perform live and in person?

And those of use who were in attendance, we decided individually and simultaneously to clap along to one of their most beloved songs the first opportunity we had?

And in response that band smiled and laughed along with us, like they were in awe of our presence and not the other way around???

Yeah, me too.

Anywayyy, after months (sorry) I have finally found the time and motivation to compile my photos, videos and audio recordings of the Amazing Devil performance at the Hay Festival back in May. I also included audio of the Its Not a Cult interview that Joey and Madeleine did at the start. Yay! 😄 Here is the link to my Google Drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IQ2fvJM-q5rdHocVmrinU0kcS1s_rj83?usp=drive_link

Please let me know if you have any issues accessing it (or if I messed something up)! The previews of the videos on Drive are super compressed, but if you download them they should be much better quality.

I know other fans have already posted their audio and videos of the event so I am not sure if this is really desired by anyone anymore, but I wanted to do it for myself and the few others who might still enjoy it. Plus, I wanted to keep my promise! ☺️

Imagine Luke Arnold as Long John Silver in Treasure Island

(With reference to the 1952 film adaptation of Treasure Island.)

Nigel Farage is the leader of Reform UK, a far right party who are currently in the process of a serious bid to become the UK government. they are just straight up evil.

Count Binface is an intergalactic space warrior with a bin on his head. he likes to run as a novelty candidate in general and mayoral elections. a big thing he likes to do is run as a candidate against the incumbent prime minister:

Anyway, in brief:

Nigel Farage is currently in the midst of a big scandal about his finances

He has decided to deal with this by 1) making a show of nobly resigning from parliament and then 2) immediately running in the resulting by-election

He has stated that he is letting 'the people' judge his actions and implied that if he wins that will prove that he has been exonerated in the court of public opinion

His goal was presumably to get a big resounding win over the other parties, proving that The People still love him.

the other parties have thus far decided that this is a 'vanity election' and, well, there is one very easy way to ensure that he will not beat any of them, and that is simply not to play.

and as a result the only person who has so far confirmed they are running against him is Count Binface. no matter the outcome this makes Nigel Farage look like, u know, a fucking clown.
