On this day in 1981, R.E.M. played The Station in Carrboro, North Carolina, for a fourth and final time. It had been the venue for their first gig outside of Georgia the previous year. It closed in 2023, having been in business since the 1970s.

I think the solution to all this social media upheaval is a return to the era of blogs and rss feeds. I still miss google reader.

First time I’ve seen a Festivus pole (made of aluminum: high strength to weight ratio) on display. At Gray Squirrel Coffee. Happy Festivus to all those who observe.
