i find it hilarious that after decades of squeezing every last drop of blood out of the middle class, now capitalists are complaining that not enough people are eating at restaurants, taking trips, using airlines, or buying crap from box stores.

Damn, Well this hits deep! But it's just how life works in this crazy world!
Goes by in the blink of an eye!🌍
I may have exaggerated when I said it before, but today I mean it. I could definitely play in this travesty of a United team. Dicks.

An extraordinary musician, arranger & producer.
A huge loss to Irish music.

Sweet (October 23, 2026) – Live 25 Album: 2LP Turquoise Vinyl
Live 25 is a live album by Sweet, scheduled for release on October 23, 2026.
The album follows Full Circle, the band's 2024 studio album, which returned Sweet to the German album chart Top 20 for the first time since Level Headed in 1978.
Following the release of Full Circle, the band took the newer material onto the stage alongside established Sweet classics and heavier catalogue tracks that had appeared less frequently in recent setlists.
Andy Scott describes Live 25 as more than simply a live recording, presenting the album as a celebration of the live performance tradition that has remained central to Sweet since the 1970s.

A statement on yesterday…..
Everything I said in that interview was true. However, rest assured I’m doing my best to turn things round.
I have been in a mental health clinic for the last 10 weeks, finally discharging so I could attempt to play in Belfast
I owed that to my family, in particular my daughter to see me play for what could be the last time….. I also owed it to the fans who have supported me throughout my 21 years on tour
I also owed that to World Snooker who have been amazing from day on in all this, in particular Simon Brownell and Neil Tomkins who have remained in touch regularly, even Simon paying me a visit in the clinic itself
I’m not ok, but I’m ok in that itself. I’ve been much worse in the last few months than you saw yesterday. I literally didn’t see a future in anything…..
My daughter kept me going, the therapists, staff and all the other patients were amazing and helped me through some really dark days
I see the light now that I couldn’t see before but I do now. I also know it won’t happen overnight. I’m a work in progress!!! My fight and determination on the table has always been there for ones to see. I need to show those same fighting qualities off it now for a while
Please don’t detract anything from Jordan yesterday, he’s been aware of my struggles and that can’t have been easy to play in but he handled it with grace and skill as I knew he would. Im proud to call him a friend
I hope the rest of the event is a success and I will continue my treatments going forward and then see what’s ahead
Thank you to every single message I have received on here, instagram, Facebook, text messages and WhatsApp’s, I’ve seen them all but a bit overwhelmed to reply right now. Just know that they have helped me a lot but I’m not going anywhere just yet!!!! I have so much to live for and this is only the beginning of my new journey
Also, I was not made to do any interviews, I was simply given a choice and felt I owed it to everyone to speak. The media team at WST have been incredible through all this too
Thank you all x

“Those who die go no further from us than God, and God is very near”. The St Brigid’s players bring the McNamee Cup to their friend Fionntán McGarvey's grave after they won a first ever Antrim senior title. Fionntán died in 2022.

SUPERSONIC – SHOW 7 | OCTOBER 18, 1975
A cracking line-up featuring Sweet, David Essex, The Real Thing, Marc Bolan, Steve Colyer and the Bay City Rollers.
One intriguing correction: the mysterious “David Essex – The Main Attraction” found in episode guides is very likely a misidentification of “All the Fun of the Fair”, which begins with the phrase “see the main attraction”. The Real Thing then performed their 1975 single “Watch Out Carolina”, written and produced by David Essex.
Another little piece of Supersonic history reconstructed.
