LET'S SELL SOME VACUUM CLEANERS!

"BACK. We knew we shouldn't have left you/ Without some strong chat to step to..."

John and Luke are back together at tQHQ and are blazing a trail across the firmament like nuclear powered sherry trifle of chat blasted from a cannon of despondency, scornfulness and insomnia. Today, the notionally dynamic duo play tracks by Cakes Da Killa, Peaches, Grumbling Fur, NOMEANSNO, Laughing Len Cohen, Skinny Girl Diet, Innercity Ensemble, Rats On Rafts, Acid Arab, Sleaford Mods and much much more. Emboldened by coffee the pair talk about the woes of being a door to door vacuum cleaner salesman, Richard Foster's mum's recipe for corned beef hash, why Michel Houellebecq is the Morrissey of literature and the joys of the Russian and Turkish saunas in York Hall, Bethnal Green.
