I knew and liked him a lot in the wayback years, hadn’t seen him since he produced Galang (the odd private view non-withstanding) and I’m so devastated for his family and close friends.

Just rotten. What a perfect key element for that band, always an anchor but never a weight.

Jarvis & Steve were in many ways the core duo of 90s Pulp, and he was the only member of the band on Jarvis's solo LPs, a real loss musically as well as a lovely guy.

I made a mix of some of Steve's best work, both in Pulp and as a writer/producer/remixer. Mixcloud wouldn't let me publish (too many tracks by one artist) so here it is instead:

Wonder why there is a screenshot of live Pulp performance in the middle of Hitchcock/Truffaut.

Saw them at Finsbury Park last night - despite the absences, they're sounding incredible. I've missed them.

They played A New One at the second Sheffield show, it's pretty good.

Ticketmaster can eat my unwiped shitstained asshole

Well there'll be other chances later in the week at least!

Kings Theatre in Brooklyn (the NY stop on the tour) dropped Ticketmaster. Things moved slowly on their system, but was able to get good tickets, and fees lower than Ticketmaster scum would have charged.
― bulb after bulb, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 15:30 (one month ago) link
That’s really nice. Paid $30 in fees on each ticket. Hope you’re lucky with the general sale Murgatroid

I went on right at 10:00 with the correct presale code but couldn't even get in.
― Bee OK, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 17:09 (one month ago) link
Oof, sucks to hear. In contrast SF went crazy smoothly! Got a floor/GA spot, all good.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 17:12 (one month ago) link
So I got in after typings that out but like Murgatroid was timed out. Now they say no tickets left.

Their seat selection system stresses me out, especially on a phone. But I got mine.
― early rejecter, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 17:22 (one month ago) link
damn, i missed the memo about the mailing list so no artist pre-sale for me.
gotta listen to a bunch of pulp on spotify to day and hope to get that pre-sale code.

Got a pair for Toronto, but only after trying nonstop for 15 minutes. Like Murgatroid I had some in my basket, went to pay, and they were suddenly gone. Was about to give up and refreshed another 10 times or so and got in, this time it worked. No rhyme or reason. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Aw darn my ex works for live nation and I was excited to come share the code! Alas!
