Encouraging to see Russians around the world protesting against their fascist government and its delusional leader (who now compares himself to Peter the Great) on yesterday’s “Russia Day”.
We arrived in stunning Stockholm yesterday. See you at the show tonight?
Like many people, we are concerned about the safety of Alexei Navalny, the courageous Russian opposition leader, who survived being poisoned by Russia’s fascist regime and was then imprisoned on trumped-up charges. He is believed to have been recently moved to a remote prison colony.
Our one-off show at the Electric Ballroom in Camden is just over a week away and the exclusive tee shirt, designed by Farrow, is now in production! More info about the show at the link below.
Just came to see (and be impressed by) Tracey Emin’s massive new sculpture, “The Mother”, outside the Munch Museum in Oslo. Neil x

Published today — the memoirs of Barbara Charone, the veteran music industry publicist who I have known since I was a journalist at Smash Hits. (Consequently I make a few appearances in the book.) Full details at the link below. Neil x

Zoe Ball interviewed Chris and Neil on her BBC Radio 2 show in the run-up to their Glastonbury performance on Sunday. You can hear the interview at the link below (PSB are approx 36 minutes into the show).
Tonight we’re playing a concert in the Electric Ballroom in Camden Town to aid grassroots music venues. I can remember us going to the same venue in 1984 to see this historic benefit gig by Bronski Beat for the families of striking miners, later immortalised in the film, “Pride”. Neil x
Fabulous packed singalong show tonight in the legendary Electric Ballroom!

In Oslo recently we saw the preparations for a happy Pride celebration. We are horrified by the deadly attack on innocent people and send our love, condolences and admiration for everyone who defied violence and marched in Pride anyway. Love Neil & Chris
What a night at Glastonbury! The front screen didn’t go up at the beginning so Chris went and played keyboards upstage. Fabulous, huge crowd! Thank you to Olly Alexander for joining us, also to our brilliant band, dancers and creative crew! And to Glastonbury and the BBC! xx

A Russian lawyer, Dimitri Talantov, who has been defending a journalist charged with treason, has been arrested and taken away in handcuffs after posting on social media a statement about the recent Russian missile attack on a Ukrainian shopping mall: “Today’s horror in Kremenchuk — is this also a part of your denazification? Or is this fascism?” We salute his courage.
Wonderful nights in Camden and Glastonbury last week. Dreamworld is heading to Athens next! x
