Sean's good people, I've found; somehow we ended up mutual Twitter follows years back and I have to say I really like his recent music. That album with David McAlmont was striking.

100% agree.

i did not post this as a diss, but as a point of order re the chaos he clearly went through due to that one 'quote'.

Don't know about this Twitter thing but their chapter in the recent C86 book is an eye opener on that topic.

Just read that chapter this morning by coincidence. Great book.
What I really want to hear is that TR808 / SH101 solo thing Sean recorded when he was 14 (as mentioned in the book)

Great recent chat with Sean here:https://thehustle.podbean.com/e/episode-408-sean-dickson-of-the-soup-dragonshifi-sean/
Gets pretty emotional about his coming out and subsequent breakdown... and his lack of renumeration for turning "I'm Free" into a massive hit. Seems like a good dude.

Guess they are touring again, with the original line up and the BMX Bandits & Vaselines in support. Perhaps an acknowledgment that the Ross on drums era is what people want to hear, at least in the UK. Probably be good fun tbh.
