ILX Milk Carton

alive and well (if extremely grumpy) on twitter

i miss marcos!

Extremely grumpy but funny, he's still got it!

at first i thought that was about marcos, and the "extremely grumpy" part was making no sense!

Dmac?

Living his best life on IG and elsewhere, doing fine.

and he popped in for some Top Gun discussion recently but let's not go there

He actually posted a couple of times this past month but yeah he’s gone for good ito being a regular afaict

missing top bloke nakhchivan atm

And i’ve been missing r|t|c !

yes! I always think of him whenever I see qpr on the telly or when you bump the dj q thread. great poster.

Got quite a shock scrolling to the bottom of this tweet about a very interesting looking article:

In 1965, Malcolm X visited the town of Smethwick following a racist election campaign. Described by the Indian Workers' Association as a “shot in the arm for the anti-racist struggle in Britain”, it’s a powerful story of solidarity.

Yeah, miss pom too.

He's fine.

Good to hear

Does Pom have a Twitter or blog where he talks about contemporary classical?

He's doing well

Simon H?

I've texted him several times (and even left him a voicemail, which I never do in a non-work capacity) to no response, but a year ago someone here said he's doing fine so I'll take that he still is

He is.

glad to hear!

missing of Nilmar H de S ... a recent conversation reminded me of him ... RIP Hans K

He's just totally disappeared, not heard from him in many years.

I messaged very briefly with him about a month ago!

Ok it was April and just about something that reminded me of a meme we both liked so no info other than he’s still alive and kicking.

Glad to hear that.

Yeah, I didn’t think he would respond but was happy that he did.

missing marcos

The Pinefox is missed. I hope he reappears, but not in an outdated photo on a milk carton.

where is my hero estela?

or maybe she is around on threads i haven't gone to.

she still pops in every once in a while

whatever happened to Grady?

gr8y i see on insta.

Sad that gbx doesn't come around anymore, always thought he was insightful.

The Pinefox is missed. I hope he reappears, but not in an outdated photo on a milk carton.

Pinefox is always around, he pops in every few weeks in his own inimitable fashion.

unless the new zadie smith novel did him in

marcos looks to be doing well in 4rizon4

I really miss harbl

sund4r, he is my actual real musicology sparring partner :(

(ie he knows what he's talking about, counterpoint i don't)

Ally

I talked to Ally for a split second at the Morbius memorial but I don't really know her, that was the only time I ever met her. Sund4r I have been in regular contact with, I owe him an email.

say hi to sund4r from me!

ally is fine afaik (we are mutuals on, like, everywhere, tho she doesn't often post anywhere currently)
