Finally got to watch the Hall of Fame broadcast back in full in the last 36 hours. ā€œFooty was something I did on a Saturday,ā€ from Peter Darley may be one of the best quotes ever about giving your best but also not taking it all too seriously.

ā€˜Mix Tape’ on Showcase reminds me of so many things from early ā€˜80s. Waiting to copy a song. Someone giving you a track you’d never heard before. Making a tape & the thought that went into it, or seeing what others were listening to. Trying to explain now v then is impossible.
