Thank you for this! In a pleasant hole now

Adding to my Xmas list!

This made my day!

One of my favorite union trivia things is that all these Peel sessions only exist because of British musicians union rules restricting what percentage of the time the bbc could play records instead of live music

Killin it as per usual

It's Friday the 13th guys remember: investigate all strange noises on your own, go to that house where the murders happened twenty years ago today, have loose casual sex, drink lots, the person in the mask is just your friend being silly, skinny dip in the lake and above all else just have fun.

Eagles frontman was backstage with an original copy of Pet Sounds and asked Wilson to sign the record. Brian Wilson stated “I wrote on his record, ‘To Don: Thanks for all the great songs. Brian Wilson’ Don was so grateful. It was almost like he couldn’t talk. He turned to leave. ‘Hey Don’, I said. ‘Wait a second.’ I took the record back, crossed out ‘great’ and wrote ‘good’. Some people would have been mad, but Don just looked at it and laughed.”

Every few months I get caught up in a Brian Wilson / Beach Boys hole, discovery this time is this fantastic quote about the time Don Henley met Brian Wilson.

The new book from @danielrachel.bsky.social, THIS AIN'T ROCK 'N' ROLL, is a meticulously researched and sensitively told history of pop music’s enduring and problematic fascination with fascism.

Fruit snack called Amazin’ Fruit. Has the same style art where dinosaurs are popping out of green leaves/brush in the cover. Featuring The Lost world logo in the center

I loved these as a kid. Trying to remember what all the dinosaurs were. They also had lost world fruit snacks with similar illustration style

I will get a lot of flack for this… but I’ve seen mgmt twice. First time they were great, second time they never even acknowledged the crowd, turned their backs and the vocals were so buried we couldn’t hear them. Was about a year after congratulations and in a festival setting

This is over but I fear it is a sign post for future corruption from the GOP

I’d love a true/faithful Thunderbolts series. The original concept is more interesting than what we ended up with. Let’s see real villains team up and then struggle with the apparent praise they receive fighting evil while simultaneously trying to dupe the government into access for their own gain

Just saw avett brothers do a version of ground hog at Merlefest this year. Woulda been wild if they traded a banjo for dulcimer

60s ad for Kelloggs Frosted Flakes with a skinny fun version of Tony that is more reminiscent of a stuffed animal than a jacked up tiger. A boy in a baseball uniform eats the cereal while the tiger has an arm around the boys shoulder while licking his lips

The ads were fun too

I’m partial to this version

Cocopuffs, the new bird is lame compared to mister classy

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated.

The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said.

What a turd

I sincerely miss the blogroll days- it felt like every college town had a few blogs of up and coming local talent mixed with shows/events happening in the area and new up and comers. Wish there was something hyper local like that now

That scream is so iconic.
