ONE HUNDRED ANSWERS

Wednesday the 29th of October 2025

Dear Reader,

Yesterday the first of the One Hundred Questions were asked with little thought being given to what those questions were for, or why they were being asked, or even if they had anything at all to do with what EMOTIONS by The Tied Hands was about, or even why Hitler decided to call his bombing of Coventry on the 14th of October 1940 his Moonlight Sonata.

But...

Today the first of the One Hundred Answers have been delivered and will be added to this website for you to consider. Other answer will be added between now until there are no more answers to be given.

That said...

There may be more questions asked, which in turn will be beg more answers to be given.

We will see...

But...

In the meantime, if you feel the urge to read the answers given to date click HERE.

Yours Faithfully,

ONE HUNDRED QUESTIONS

Tuesday the 28th of October 2025

Dear Reader,

Bill Drummond is uncertain...

Bill Drummond is uncertain about almost everything in life.

This uncertainty usually takes the form of his mind bombarding his thoughts with an endless list of questions he does not have the answers to.

Most mornings, the endless list of questions begins when he is still not fully awake wondering what the meaning of the dream is, as in a dream he has as yet not fully escaped from.

What follows are a selection of the questions that his mind has been bombarding his thoughts with this morning.

This selection of the questions might contain some of the ONE HUNDRED QUESTIONS that will be asked in exchange for a bowl of soup at the Delia Derbyshire Building between 5pm and 8pm on Friday the 14th of October 2025.

But...

In the meantime, you can answer as many or as few as these questions you want, as long as the combined word count of your answers is no more than 100 words. And then email your Anwer(s) to me via admin@penkilnburn.com

Your Answer(s) will then be considered upfront payment for your Bowl of Soup, if you were to attend the soup kitchen at Delia Derbyshire Building as mentioned above.

That said, your answers to any (or all of the) following questions will be welcomed by Bill Drummond, and may find themselves be used as content on these pages in the coming days / weeks / months or even years.

Dear Reader,

The Tied Hands are to mark the completion of their 480-day tour of the World Wide Web (17th of May 2024 and the 8th of September 2025) on the 14th of November 2025, at the Delia Derbyshire Building in Coventry, England.

This marking will begin with Bill Drummond fly posting posters at far flung quarters of the city of Coventry.

And...

STEWY completing his Public History of the Shangri-Las, also at somewhere in the city, as yet not known.

These actions will be followed by Bill Drummond making and serving soup in the Delia Derbyshire Building. This serving will be for the first one hundred people that turn up with the answer to a question that is yet to be asked.

As in...

The price of a bowl of soup is the willingness to answer a question asked by Bill Drummond there and then before he ladles the soup into the waiting bowl.

As yet...

Bill Drummond does not know what those questions are. But they might include ‘Where would you rather be?’ or even ‘Why don’t we do it in the road?’ or maybe ‘If you were to bomb one city in the world which one would it be?’

Anyway...

That evening after Cauldron has been emptied and the Ladle laid to rest and the Soup Bowls have been washed, and the one hundred questions have been asked and answered...

The Tied Toes will perform a performance as a tribute to The Tied Hands.

The Tied Toes being a tribute act of The Tied Hands. The Tied Toes will be led by a tribute version of Bill Drummond.

As yet it is not known what form this tribute performance will take...

But...

It is known that it will begin at 8pm in the Delia Derbyshire Building...

And...

It will last for no more than one hour...

And...

There will be no more than 40 members of The Tied Toes.

And...

Forty Tickets to become lifetime members of The Tied Toes will be made available in the coming days.

 And...

All there will be no audience other than those forty members of The Tied Toes.

And...

EMOTIONS by The Tied Hands is to be the third of five scheduled Long Playing records released by Penkiln Burn Records.

EMOTIONS by The Tied Hands is to be released in the Delia Derbyshire Building on the 14th of November 2025

EMOTIONS by The Tied Hands is to be released in an edition of 480. As in one copy for every day that The Tied Hands tour of the World Wide Web lasted (17th of May 2024 and the 8th of September 2025). Each of the 480 copies will be given their own handwritten date on the copy. None of the 480 copies will be signed by members of The Tied Hands those.

What follows are images of the artwork for the album EMOTIONS by The Tied Hands.

WARNING:
