A new year means an old us (releasing NYE content on Jan 16th, with the Gig Pigs Album of the Year to follow next week). Sophie Ellis Bextor, Jools Holland, and more ageless figures in the spotlight as the pigs ruminate once more on music based TV, music based board games and the music based passage of time. Bring on 2025!

S4 EP6: Lankum with Vittorio Angelone
Oh Lordy Lod, oh lordy me, what a gig Ivo missed this week, wild raving in the north while Alex and Vittorio "Victor" Angelone were wild roving in the west. Grab your Lankum tote and listen in horror (folk) at the various snafus he makes in pursuit of the emerald bandwagon, via viral pizzas, marital pledges and Master Kealy's Busted tap-in of dreams. All the words we have spoken, they were only in jest!

S4 EP5: Bloc Party
We are trying to be heroic in an age of modernity, and, in other news, we are releasing an ep from the old Patreon vaults (shout out to the £3.80 legends of yesteryear): a deep dive between gigs into the sinister hum of Ivo's music journalism circa 2007 (or was it 2005?), going in to bat for the second Bloc Party album, musing on what it's like to be in a band (not that we'd know), and commissioning a fantastically speculative bit of data-harvesting for a starting price of £200. We will charm, we will slice, we will dazzle you with our wit!

Seated or standing? Support band or drinks? Sing along as loudly as possible or watch in respectful silence? These are the dilemmas that have plagued Ivo and Alex - stand up comedians by night, gig pigs by night off - over a decade and a half of watching live music together and it’s time to start opening them up to the floor. Join them every Thursday to find out who they’ve been to see live this week, and which guest they roped along for the ride.
