1. Gig
This was on the Park stage, simply after nightfall, and she or he was clashing with Paul McCartney so her set turned out to be actually intimate. Her efficiency was so inspiring. She tells a narrative together with her physique – I hadn’t seen anybody do something like that earlier than. Typically if you’re watching dwell music you possibly can miss a number of the lyrics, however she was placing her entire self into all of the phrases, so you actually felt them.
2. App
It’s social media however you solely get a notification in your telephone as soon as a day, saying: “It’s time to publish your BeReal.” You have got two minutes to publish – it takes footage out of your back and front cameras, so that you see the individual’s face and what they’re . I've about 10 buddies on there and it’s good, particularly being away on tour, to know what they’re as much as. It’s primarily my housemates within the paddling pool or individuals at their laptops trying fairly scorching. The purpose is you don’t get the possibility to curate it. It simply feels actually healthful.
3. Trend
Renli Su dressed us for Glastonbury, Hester and me, and I actually like them as a result of their collections appear to all the time be impressed by tales – of actual individuals, but in addition from myths, poems or ballets – however based mostly on ladies who've gone towards the grain. The garments are all fairly historically female. They’re much like how ladies gown in interval dramas, which I hate, however within the little blurbs concerning the designs it says: “This assortment relies on a magician who was pretty much as good as Houdini, however her story was forgotten.” I benefit from the juxtaposition.
4. TV
It’s my favorite TV present. I nonetheless watch it commonly and discover it comforting although it’s so bleak. Everybody says that they’re a Mark or a Jeremy, particularly in home conditions: in my family I'm undoubtedly a Jeremy – I’m the bizarre musician who is available in and may’t actually take care of themselves. We watch it on the tour bus if we are able to get the TV working. We all the time discover ourselves moving into bother as a result of we’ll come out with quotes from it and if you happen to haven’t watched it, it's going to appear a bit odd.
5. Music video
Katy J Pearson is a extremely wonderful indie folks artist I’ve been following for years. This video is fantastically shot. It begins off together with her telling a ghost story with a torch proper as much as her face – there’s one thing charming about music movies once they can incorporate the miming of the track into the story. I stored seeing stills of it pop up on my social media: Katy J as a vampire, coated in blood and carrying this white robe. I lastly watched it and was not disillusioned.
6. Snack
Takis are my new favorite crisps. The primary time I had one was when [producer] Dan Carey went to the store once we have been recording and got here again with a packet. They’re rolled up tortilla chips and I swear to God on one crisp there may be all of the seasoning from an entire regular packet of crisps – they’re so spicy and wealthy and undoubtedly above your advisable salt consumption. They’re most likely actually dangerous for you however I can’t cease consuming them.
