Not many people buy music anymore. I can't fault artists for doing everything they can to make $$. I don't have to buy it, but if people want to, that's between them and their pocketbook.

Driving through Canada on my way to Massachusetts tomorrow. Maybe I'll just goddamn stay.

This would be beautiful. I could envision a scenario where Pence refuses to debate a sinner. Also, a key Iowa staff has quit Booker's campaign. I doubt he makes it to the caucuses.

I get that. As a public school teacher, I totally agree. I can sympathize with a mayor of an impoverished urban area willing to take risks to improve the school system. I don't dismiss this, that's one of the reasons he's not higher on my list; but I don't disqualify him. Fuck Nebraskans. They have a brilliant Springsteen album and that's more than enough.

Iowan here, so I matter more than most of you. Here's my current ranking: 1. Harris 2. Warren 3. Buttigieg 4. Booker 5. Castro

My tix for Chicago said 7:30, they took the stage at 9. Not sure who's opening. If it's Whiskey Myers, you're not missing anything. Enjoy!

I really need to explore the pre-Daydream Nation stuff these guys put out. I love that LP so much.

Mick Jagger is a singular phenomenon. Damn! Not sure what was going on with some miscommunications about setlist or other issues. Keith disappeared briefly early on and that kind of freaked me out. Highlight was definitely Monkey Man. One of my favorite (slightly) deep cuts. I'm very glad I went and had a good time with friends. Having said that, I'd follow McCartney on tour (or at least 5-10 more shows) if I had unlimited funds. Can't say the same about the Stones. What'd you think about night 2?

Yesterday, as I walked along the Chicago Riverwalk, The Northman seemed to be playing nothing but Wilco, heard I If Ever Was a Child and Heavy Metal Drummer, the latter while walking west with the Marina Towers in the background. Kinda cool.

The Rolling Stones

Y'all are getting me quite excited for Tuesday!

Tuesday for me!

I was picturing the interaction between Nicky Katt and Adam Goldberg on Dazed & Confused.

I had the same experience when I told him how much I like it when Wilco plays ITMWLY live.

I bought that LP thinking it would be the Rolling Thunder Revue version. Nope. Pretty much sucks, IMO.

Pretty sure I was introduced to that song by that video. It took me a while to adapt to the Blood on the Tracks version.

Missed posting yesterday. Saw McCartney in Madison, WI. Well worth it. Three hours. Great setlist (Helter Skelter was a highlight). INCREDIBLE energy from a guy who turns 77 later this month.

This... A thousand times over!

And skinny as hell!

The latest episode of the Sound Opinions Podcast featured 3 Feet High and Rising. I'm glad I was able to burn my CD. It's hard to find for streaming. https://www.soundopinions.org/show/704

Gah!! How could I forget?!?

Nope. A horrible metal opener (he was touring the metalish LP, Instinct) called Balaam & the Angel.

Any chance you, or anyone else here for that matter, was at the Iggy show at Metro in July '88? My two best friend from H.S. road tripped from Des Moines for that show. Thirty-one years later we're still telling stories.

Thought about citing these, but there were just a few tracks on each that were memorable to me.

Some other I really liked Michael Penn - March Smithereens - 11 fIREHOSE - fROMOHIO
