  1. One of the benefits of switching from Directv to Hulu + Live TV is more regional sports access. I now get Fox Sports North and, therefore, most of the Twins games!
  2. That's beautiful, but how's this for cognitive dissonance? As I'm watching a video clearly recorded by someone using their phone, I'm thinking, "Look at all the dicks, put your phones down and enjoy the moment!"
  3. A bit of research leads me to believe this was shortly after Isbell left. Is this accurate?
  4. I saw Iggy at Metro in 1988. During a stop at Letterman's on that tour, he described playing small clubs as, "You get your soul fried." That happened to me that night, for sure. An incredible road trip and bonding experience for my 2 closest high school friends the summer after we graduated. The 3 of us got together just last month. Saw him twice again 2 years later.

  12. The cash registers at my local Quik Trip were playing the opening electronic sounds from Art of Almost.
  13. Thoroughly enjoyed that. Also, I recently learned that Don Was is now president of Blue Note. He was on Maron recently.
  14. Today (just now) I discovered this site is no longer blocked at work.
  15. Bob Mould especially on Eight Miles High and 2 or 3 songs on Black Sheets of Rain.
  16. Yeah, fuck Billy Corgan for going on InfoWars.
  17. A good book. The real St. Patrick deserved his story to be told beyond the silly myths.
