Happy birthday Dean Wareham (2024 edition)

Happy birthday to Dean Wareham. Things have been fairly quiet on the Dean front this year (but there are a few things on the horizon), fortunately since it’s been two years since I last did a birthday post here are a few things since then…

I saw Dean in London in March 2023 here he is with the “Blue Thunder Band” playing Galaxie 500’s When Will You Come Home:

I made it along to the soundcheck for that one - here they are playing the same track during their soundcheck

… and since that sort of gives this post a theme, here’s a minute of Galaxie 500 soundchecking When Will You Come Home

… and Luna playing it at The Borderline in London in 1993

… and Dean playing it 10 years (and five days) ago at Indietracks

… and some pics:

I also got a visit from Dean & Britta at work back in April…

And the things on the horizon are…

… and that’s pretty much it (or at least as much as I’m aware of).

Have a lovely birthday Dean, and hopefully see you again soon!
