The age limit of 50 was introduced in 1991. It’s been abandoned this year.

I would have to refuse I’m afraid, being interviewed by Will Gompertz would fill me with dread.

From the 2015 hopefuls,this one made the biggest splat for me.
A large pile of aged human excrement has been shortlisted for this year’s Turner Prize.
The piece – ‘A load of old shit,’ was created by controversial excro-artist Simon Williams.
“Yeah, I mean, I was thinking, right, every year, right, the Turner Prize shortlist is just a load of old shit,” he said, controversially.
“So, I thought, right, that what I’d do was really satirise the whole concept, right, of an art competition by getting a load of old shit, right, and entering that as my genuine art.
“I really hope I win.”

Anyone wandering around Hull, City of Culture 2017 at a loose end today could do worse than take in this year’s Turner Prize exhibits at the Ferens Gallery – you might meet Nigel there, or possibly Mike The Badger.
I’m strangely drawn to Andrea Büttner’s ‘Fabric Wall (high visibility yellow)’ for some reason, but Christ, that Lubaina Himid’s good. She lives in Preston (q v), you know.

Sounds fab. Enjoy. Hull, City of Nowhere after 22.33.
(would have still gone for 20 songs if it was next to the station, but that 1000 yards would take it down to less than two thirds of the gig).
