Blind Skeleton

This week’s Three Tune Tuesday marches through Sousa — from patriotic spectacle to institutional loyalty to full-on absurdity. What were marches meant to do? And what do they mean now?

IT WAS AMAAAAAZING. The incredible Brett Miller seamlessly accompanied Metropolis (all 2.5 hours!) on the mighty WurliTzer. I'm sure we'll wax poetic about it on our next pod - TOMORROW, 8/5!

Just before the show. Lookit that console!

We're here! @yuliasilvae.bsky.social and I have reached Phoenixville's epic Colonial Theatre for Mla showing of Metropolis. The original one! Be sure to come by!

I grew up with PBS.
Mr. Rogers taught me kindness.
Big Bird taught me curiosity.
Now, our would-be king is gutting public broadcasting.
So I’m doing something about it.

Three tunes. One theme: Disobedient Women.

Rebecca went to Mecca and came back barer than Theda Bara.
Eva Tanguay didn’t care—and shouted it.
Ma Rainey wore a tie and dared you to “prove it.”

This week on Three Tune Tuesday, we break rules, records, and a 1925 cutoff.

Well-behaved women rarely make history.
So next week's Three Tune Tuesday is for the rabble-rousers, the rule-breakers, the ones who talked back and sang louder.
Theme: Disobedient Women

This week's Three Tune Tuesday podcast theme is "Outsiders" — those who live on the margins and drift between worlds.

We’ve got a lonesome drifter, a Siberian exile, and sorrow for a boy who lost his way.

Three vintage tracks. Three voices from the edge. Tune in Tuesday.

Next week's Three Tune Tuesday theme is "Outsiders." @yuliasilvae.bsky.social and I will discuss and share songs about the marginalized in society - immigrants, travelers, and "others."

Have a pre-1925 song you'd like us to play? Drop me a note!

This sounds like an acoustically recorded song on shellac that I'd play on my podcast. Love it. She's got a great sound.

This is so obviously not about ratings.

I love Star Trek, but I'm cancelling my Paramount subscription. That's the only and best way for me to express my displeasure.

Blind Skeleton's podcast, Three Tune Tuesday, is getting upwards of 100 downloads weekly! Can you help us make it 200? @yuliasilvae.bsky.social and I talk about current events through the lens of vintage, acoustically recorded music.

Want to be on a podcast where satire, song & justice collide?

Three Tune Tuesday seeks guests with something to say—and a few songs to spin. Musicians, activists, culture shakers: if it’s art, justice, or just plain weirdness, let’s talk.

DM @blindskeleton.bsky.social or visit blindskeleton.one

Thank you! It's a lot of fun to put together.

Satire, song, laughter—and just a touch of chaos.
The latest Three Tune Tuesday podcast from Blind Skeleton is live.
Tune in for vintage tunes and sharp takes.

Come have a listen to @yuliasilvae.bsky.social and I as we go off script and ramble, occasionally swerving back on topic.

(FYI: We're never scripted)

Great movie. I preferred the book, but the movie really got the heart and emotion of it.

It's true! We were a little quick on the draw this week. If you're interested in listening in as we discuss the plight of workers with three vintage worker/labour inspired songs, go check us out!

"Freedom, eh?" This week's Three Tune Tuesday celebrates "International Freedom Week" (Canada Day and Independence Day) with three freedom-inspired songs from the acoustically recorded era. Freedom is something to be cherished and still worth fighting for.

Three Tune Tuesday
Songs that didn’t mean what they mean now:
“Yankee Doodle” (mockery turned anthem)
“Swing Low” (freedom song turned chant)
“Battle Cry” (Union song co-opted by Confederates)
Music moves—and it doesn’t always ask permission.
