It's been a very EXTRA week, and so we're going early cos frankly we're busting to unpack it all.
The Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony is camp AF and we're here for Blue Man Group Dionysis, Renaissance horsewoman, a ménage a trois nod, and death metal beheadings of Marie Antoinette. Obvs we're on the floor watching Celine's return. Wow.
CD's are having a renaissance of their own, thanks mainly to T Swift, but a sweet editorial has us reminiscing about the beloved compact disc and the memories they hold. And on the anniversary of Sinead O'Connor's death, a wax figure has been unveiled in Dublin. It's not good.
Bang Fam have been DM'ing us the Alexander McQueen hoof boots left right and centre too, and trotting down the runway with this hairy FARSHUN. And we're banging on about the Von Dutch doco and Nick Cave & Sean O'Hagan's beautiful book of conversations.
