I’m not quite sure I can put into words what today means to me.
Music has been my whole life. From those early days of falling in love with records and DJing, to travelling the world and sharing that love with so many people, I’ve never stopped being grateful that I get to do what I do.
To receive my OBE from Prince William at Windsor Castle today, recognising nearly 50 years of doing something I absolutely love, is beyond anything I could have imagined. ❤️🔥
I’ve been thinking a lot about my mum and dad today. I know just how proud they would have been, and I wish they could have been here to share this moment with me.
This honour means so much, not just to me personally, but because of where our music has come from and how far it has travelled. To see dance music recognised in this way is something I’m immensely proud of.
To my family, friends, everyone who has believed in me, supported me and danced with me over the years, thank you. You’ve all been part of this.
My heart is very full today. I’m proud, humbled and deeply honoured.
Thank you, Carl.

My great friend, supreme broadcaster and funniest man I ever knew, Danny Kelly, died yesterday afternoon.
I cannot believe I will never hear his voice again.

Some huge news if you are a fan of rare footage! I have been trying for years to get my hands on some extremely rare footage - that NOBODY has. I was aware of it's existence and after a long time of corresponding with the UNC College Library in North Carolina I was able to obtain it. It's footage from a WCW house show in Greensboro on April 6, 1991 that was shot by a public access crew from the college. Today I was finally able to get my hands on it. Unfortunately, it's edited to about 27 minutes long and only 2 matchups shown (and even they are incomplete). But the matchups shown are cool ones (Sid Vicious vs Ricky Morton and Sting/Pillman vs Barry/Arn - along with some additional footage). This will be my biggest contribution to the rare footage community since the time I was the one to unleash the NWA basketball game years ago where Dusty went viral. Haha.

Think this was my favourite stat in the piece...
New post:
Probably the most important political trend of the year has been Farage's growing unpopularity, which has dropped Reform to third place in the polls.
How did it all go so wrong for him? Is he now the main block on the radical right in the UK?

#OnThisDay in 2011: Playing William Regal's Real Man's Man theme in the middle of his regular one during his entrance is an all-time great rib.
Both Regal and Daniel Bryan are loving this.
