Pop football chants, Reg ‘Reg’ Snipton sings Joni Mitchell & the tale of John Lennon’s watch

The two-man tandem of curiosity wobbles its way down the rock and roll cyclepath pausing here to admire the view … … “We’re captive on the carousel of TIME-AH!!”: tuneless Northern club singer Reg “Reg” Snipton performs Ver Greats. … is going to gigs alone becoming a thing? ... why Phil Oakey was a better musician than any of ELP. … Seven Nation Army in football stadiums - and does Jack White make any money from it? … what rock stars spend their fortunes on. … people who are ‘jewellery-blind’ (eg D Hepworth). … the scariest intention a musician can announce.   … Dutch fans dancing. … the poignancy of all John Lennon’s possessions. … how to wreck the Great American Songbook (may involve xylophone solo). … from the Euros to a trip on the tube: how selfies have invaded our space. … the strange, unfinished story of John Lennon’s Patek, “the El Dorado of lost watches”. … you’re never alone with an iPhone. … and does virtuoso musicianship ruin pop music, asks birthday guest Guy Constant?
