the titles and cover art make them HMHB's wario.

If you ignore the odd spelling mistake/typo (eg, 'Martin Shepherdson'), this is surely the greatest festival lineup of all-time. Interesting to note HMHB's low billing back then - I sincerely hope a Running Order Squabble Fest ensued.

For the last day, its the bountiful trove of HMHB's back catalogue again.

I always thought Kevin might be the one of the gang who had a Scalextric in HMHB's Dukla Prague Away Kit, a few years down the line.

HMHB's Irk the Purists

I keep encountering them. Though I think HMHB's 80s stuff might be their weakest. They're really on a roll from about 1997-2005.

Dad mentioned Mariella Frostrup and @jfarrers.bsky.social and I had to sing the line from HMHB’s You’re Hard. Nearly made my mum wet herself.

This was recorded before HMHB's glorious tune #gimwr

Immortalised in HMHB’s ‘Running Order Squabble Fest’ 😁

Though they did inspire HMHB’s ‘boom boom boom let me hear you say hosepipe ban’. How rude to steal Erotic City’s tune, also. #totp

The penultimate MISSING ARTIST is also the last of the 45-pointers.

THE KILLERS

It's 'Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine'.

Along with HMHB's 'National Shite Day', a constant C21 presence in the top 100 until Bonus Bonanza week.

40th anniversary of Cocteau Twins' album Treasure, here's HMHB's piss take of 4AD.

"Formed a band and had loads of good songs like
“Love Froth Tuesday”, “Pancake Candy Shoes”
Got a good guitarist, but he’s got a sad barnet
“Kiss Cream Carnival”, “Lime Sky Spooky Pills”

Beautiful bit in hmhb's 'Blue Badge Abuser': 'one day I know I'll have to face His wrath - a walk in Hell for a walk-in bath'

"In this lecture I will demonstrate that The Strokes were a phenomenon of hauntology ..."

(at this point, I am about to say "Yeah, right..." in the style of the music journo conducting the interview in #hmhb's peerless song 'Used To Be in Evil Gazebo'.)

And there's another (indirect) Ted reference in HMHB's 'Uffington Wassail': "Lazy greedy farmers, pick your OWN strawberries!"

My current earworm is a mashup of this and HMHB's Upon Westminster Bridge. Ken Hom Wok Set, perchance?
January 1, 2025 at 1:01 AM
See, it's hardly relevant, but my brain saw this and has given me an earworm of HMHB's Improv Workshop Mimeshow Gobshite

HMHB's (Peel session only?) version of STTS is a delight, mainly for the way Nigel says "was I a fox?"
April 17, 2025 at 4:44 PM
Had a nap by the way, during which I dreamt that I heard HMHB’s Record Store Day (which sounded nothing like it) on a long down escalator that went into the sea at the bottom.

Morning spent zipping along the M53 chortling to #hmhb’s latest and pondering the magnificence of the northbound hard shoulder. #OblongOfDreams

HMHB's answer to The Modern Antiquarian
It’s Friday & I’m pleased to announce that for the Half Man Half Biscuit fan who thinks they have everything,a new HMHB map of the UK has arrived with over 200 locations mentioned in their inimitable lyrics. Something for the weekend? Oh, yes, I think so. xx

Pleasantly surprised to read that HMHB's Alehouse Futsal has been selected to be played during the hydration breaks in tonight's game. Great decision from all those involved.
👏👏
