Further Macklemore stats:

More total streams (since March 2023) than Bowie, Prince, Madonna or U2 and also more than Chappell Roan, Gracie Abrams or Benson Boone
OK properly shocked that Macklemore’s current - not peak - Spotify monthly listeners are 34 million

Acts who have apparently never reached this level include:

Metallica
Backstreet Boys
Outkast
Nickelback
2Pac
The Rolling Stones
Foo Fighters
Amy Winehouse
Carly Rae Jepsen
Kylie

When Taylor Swift met Ed Sheeran she was disturbed by how obsessed with his charts and streams he was. If Taylor Swift thinks you're too obsessed with charts and sales then you're an addict. Accounts of Sheeran watching his streams go up, sweating like a gambler. That's how you end up like this

I refuse to believe that major stadium venues would have cancelled their Ed Sheeran concerts rather than allow Macklemore on the bill. There was an opportunity for Sheeran to use his commercial weight to force the issue, and he folded immediately.

Me, earlier: "I'm getting too old for London shows, next year it's gonna have to really be a special band for me to make that trek, probably gonna limit myself to 2 or 3 at most."

The Warning, two hours later: *announces a London show*

So, those other two gigs are gonna need to be pretty special.

Have just left the Emirates and arrived at the O2.

I feel like I should play a Sega Dreamcast on a JVC TV to complete the set.

My first morning in the Omaze house. I didn’t sleep. I could hear crying from behind the door I’m not allowed to open.The only thing to eat is frozen prawns. I went for a wander round the 4 acre garden and found a box of VHS tapes marked ‘For the next one’. I’m sure it’s fine. I’m sure it’s all fine

There's something pleasingly symmetrical about starting a re-read of a book in the same pub you finished it the last time.

So, it turns out if you're on a server for a trio of musicians in their early twenties, in which the general democratic is 70% middle aged rockers and 30% gen z lesbians, describing the band's latest post as looking "cunty" can cause quite a schism.

Something's wrong with my football score app, it's showing Gillingham as *winning* 4-0. They're playing away so clearly the score has been reversed somehow.
