Miles Kane - Blog Posts
do you ever think about how the dream synopsis and the bourne identity are the most honest, candid, and open songs that alex turner has ever written about his identity struggles/fame/growing up and we’ve never heard him speak as openly & not wrapped up in metaphor neither before or after these songs. and that the reason for that is miles kane and how comfortable he makes alex during their songwriting and how they collaborate so well with each other. because i do think about that.
So these are only some of them because most of them look even worse than this (somehow) I also have the pictures that I took with him after but I haven't put my face on here yet so I'm not sure if I'll share it.
this is the opening act but the colouring is so cool.
Also I want to add some pictures to my wall of TLSP pictures, if anyone has any opinions on which ones to use let me know :)
Miles Kane show
So I saw Miles in Bristol on Friday. The show was incredible - both Miles and the opening act (The Royston Club) were so good. I have some kind of bad quality pictures and videos from the gig if anyone wants to see them I can post some. I also met Miles after the show and despite me barely saying a word and being really awkward he was so lovely.

if this actually is what he plays i am even more exited for my show than i was before
updated tour playlist 😍
So we couldn't join the server someone sent us but i did find another one. This link will expire in seven days just so you know :). https://discord.gg/kKfqrePC
I was talking to my friend (@skylarbee) earlier about how toxic the am fandom can be while the tlsp fandom are the calmest most lovely group of people you could ever meet.
On that vein of thought we were wondering if any TLSP fans would like to join a big group of other fans (most likely a discord server) and we can all just chat and form a properly lovely community together.

kind of tempted to take a Miles Kane themed trip to London now
Miles Kane Shares His Little Black Book Of London
Interview from Forbes 12.04.22
Musician Miles Kane is the dapper chappy known for his solo music (F.Y.I he has a new album out and a European tour starting this week), being part of The Last Shadow Puppets, and, last but not least, his modish mode.
Miles shares his guide to London, from his favorite watering holes to vintage clothing stores.
Shop: Mr. Start and Nordic Poetry
"For classic menswear, one of my favorites is Mr. Start in Shoreditch, it’s got a John Smedley vibe but with an edge. The fits are fantastic. On a vintage tip I like Nordic Poetry, it has great bits for men and even better stuff for women. I’d say some real gems there."
Bar: Satan’s Whiskers
"Best cocktails bar in London in my opinion. It’s small, sexy and dark with the best drinks. It feels private as everyone has to sit to drink so no one will be banging into you. Sip a killer Martini while it plays old-school hip-hop, it’s just cool basically! Book in advance I’d say."
Boozer: The Sun Tavern
"For me, it’s the best bar in London. lighting is key in my eyes in bars and restaurants, nobody wants to be sat in a dentist when having a bevy or eating! The tav has a rock n roll, New York feel and energy to it in the heart of Bethnal Green! Great friendly staff great tunes, it’s family x"
Stay: Town Hall Hotel
"Great hotel in the heart of Bethnal Green, it’s surrounded by all the cool spots to eat and drink. The apartment-style rooms go down a treat with the warehouse-style interiors. Great restaurant and amazing pool in the gym as well."
Eat: Brutto
"My new favorite Italian in London. It has it all for me, incredible martini, best steaks around and pasta to die for! The pepper steak stew is also incredible it has the vibe of my dream restaurant, it has a mix of Frank Sinatra and The Sopranos vibes, what more could you want!"
Chill out: Paragon Gym
"It may not sound chilling out but to de-stress, paragon gym has been my home for about 7/8 years. It’s a kickboxing gym where I train with Stuart Lawson, a Jedi master and an incredible trainer. He has kept me in shape! Great for one on one sessions or group classes. I love boxing or kickboxing, it has a real family-friendly vibe and has been my second family at times! Good people, give it a shot!"
Music venue: The Moth Club
"For the Northern Soul nights and the Cave Club, it’s hard to find anywhere that plays great music with a dance floor, maybe there is but I don’t know about it? The Moth Club caters to me as once a month they have a Deptford Soul Northern Soul night and Rhys Webb's Cave Club. If you're looking for soul, Motown, rock ‘n’ roll and to cut some shapes, look no further!"
Barbers: Jimmy Slick’s Barbers
"My favorite barbers around is where I go to get my hair done. The best skin head in London, it’s that simple folks! Incredible painted walls floor to ceiling like a psychedelic jungle too. Check it out."
Your favorite place...Victoria Park!
"I’m showing my age now but I love a park. Vicky Park has been good to me, it’s where I go every day pretty much to either run, walk or get a coffee. It’s sorted my head out many times, good energies in there I promise you. There’s a cute little village in the middle of you want to treat yourself."
Twitch stream
I've talked about this before but while I am live I thought I would mention it again. I livestream on twitch, mostly knitting/crochet but i chat A LOT while doing it about whatever i am nerding about at that time. Which right now is AM/TLSP/MK. I also have a couple of projects to do with them so please come and join me if you want to. As I said I am live now and would love it if people joined. Bespokenits - Twitch
why would you put that thought in my head???
if we get any pictures of alex watching miles perform from the side of the stage just know you won't be hearing from me again (i will have passed away)
Someone please add that picture of miles and alex. You know which one i mean.
it's too bad smoking is expensive and bad for you and everyone around you because we will never be able to replace the specific intimacy of lighting someone else's cigarette for them
For people who dont know this. The person who made this incredible edit also made this iconic video using the Sziget concert.

I want to say thank you to the tiktok creator who made this the transition is incredible🙏🙏🙏🙏
Is there video for these? I've seen the second one in video form but only seen the gifs of the other three.
Miles + calling Alex “baby”
the other picture they used from the 'used to be my girl' performance though-

My twitch streams are so quiet recently. I mean all I do is talk about nerdy stuff (currently tlsp/am) while knitting or crocheting but still. twitch.tv/bespokenits
:))
but always said like miles kane in that one particular tlsp interview
adding “if that makes sense” to the end of my nonsensical statements
Honestly I came back home from university today and the about five hours since I got home my mum has heard Miracle aligner four times 😂
I think I accidently set the bar too high for myself by watching Miracle Aligner as the first TLSP music video I saw and now I'm hesitant to watch any others because I feel nothing can top it
and they do it so well
The interview that goes with that GQ fashion shoot!
I need to inject the album into my bloodstream
“When you’re longing for the sweet smell of self esteem”
“Glass-bottomed ego, still afloat but can’t you see the cracks appearing in the base”
“I’m leaning in to kiss the past goodbye”
“I caught you talking to the real me”
Lyrical geniuses
