Blancmange – Hammersmith Apollo, London – December 11, 1985. Blancmange for your Saturday brunch. Recorded at The Hammersmith Apollo in London on December 11, 1985. Since we seem to be spending a lot of time hovering around 1985, might as well include one of the bands who made it what
Megan de Klerk of Nusantara Beat – One of those timeless voices you wish everyone sounded like. Since I’ve been taking most of the day off (being a birthday and all; figured I earned it) – running a concert from this year’s Lowlands Festival in Biddinghuizen, Netherlands, recorded on August
Something of a cheat this weekend: Gracious in performance during the 1970 Isle Of Wight Festival. Part of the reissue box set released by Esoteric Recordings last year. I suspect there are not a lot of you who are even vaguely familiar with this band, which is 99% of the
Brunch with The Claypool Lennon Delirium this weekend – recorded at the 2016 Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco on August 16, 2016. The Claypool Lennon Delirium – one of my favorite go-to bands in recent years, probably because they remind me, in vibe and approach to Gong, another favorite
Queens Of The Stone Age – Reading 2000 – BBC 6 Music – Queens Of The Stone Age, in concert at The Reading Festival in 2000 (are you joking? Twenty-six YEARS AGO??). The Palm Desert California band were one of the highlights of a festival that included headliners Oasis

The Police for this weekend’s Brunch – recorded during the Mont de Marsan Festival on August 5, 1977. Probably the first recording of a public performance by the newly formed Police, recorded during the Mont de Marsan Festival in France on August 5, 1977. For people who listen to later
Avril Lavigne – Former MVP in Ice Hockey . . .honest! Brunch with Avril Lavigne today – in concert from Rock In Rio on September 9, 2022. In case you don’t already know what she’s been up to, the past few years: Avril Lavigne’s sound went softer and poppier on
Red Hot Chili Peppers – “Nobody Weird Like Us”. Red Hot Chili Peppers live in Tokyo for Weekend Brunch – recorded on January 26, 1990 at the Club Citta Kawasaki. It occurred to me that in the twelve years Past Daily has been around, we’ve never run a RHCP concert
