By happy coincidence I just got given a copy of Open Up & Bleed the same week I downloaded Metallic KO from eMusic.

If the Stooges at last years's BDO was anything to go by, Iggy has been throwing those shapes on stage for nearly 40 years!…

It's extraordinary and Iggy is sheer charisma.

As he always is / was. I took him to a Cook Street Xmas Party in 1979, at the Mandalay. As we entered Th'Dudes, unknowingly, struck up "The Passenger". Mr Osterberg made his way to the stage and stared at Peter who stopped…

Yep, without whom......

Great clip. I have The way They Were, a compilation of Granada material from the punk and new wave years, which includes the full version of 'The Passenger', which you see a little of there. It's extraordinary and Iggy is sheer charisma.

1985 news – so relaxed, in both pace and tone.

But one thing was more formal then than it is now: all people mentioned in stories, whether verbally or in a name graphic, were given a title. So it's "Mr Ron Knox", whereas today it would just be "Ron Knox".

what were you doing in CHCH with students Russell? Why wasn't I informed?

Doing a 90-min info dump for students at the School of Broadcasting. I come down every year, because it's a good course and it feels worthwhile.

But where's the cute puppy

You'd never see a cute puppy story in the first few minutes of a news story today. They're usually stuck at the end along with the weather.

What stuck out the most for me was that Tom Bradley was obviously not reading from an autocue…
