I watched "Springsteen on Broadway" last night on Netflix. It reminded me why I loved Bruce so much (until he released "Born in the USA").

Wait. You saw YLT at The Basement?! That place is tiny.

Hahaha. Post of the week. Unlike Stevie, Harold deserved it.

I could tell you, but then I would have to kill you.

What were your favorite shows this year? I still have a few to attend in December, but so far mine are: David Byrne at the Auditorium Theater (one of my favorite shows ever) Low Cut Connie at the Empty Bottle Drive-By Truckers at Thalia Hall Parquet Courts at the Vic Theater Guided By Voices at SPACE Courtney Barnett at Newport FF Alejandro Escovedo and Don Antonio at SPACE John Prine at the Ryman Margo Price at Thalia Hall Waco Brothers at Schuba's

I'm now five episodes in and I really like it. I've worked closely with two of the defendant's expert witnesses (Werner Spitz and Jan Leetsma) so it's kind of a kick to see them on screen.

As a die-hard, long-suffering White Sox fan, I'm pleasantly surprised and happy as hell that Harold Baines is entering the HOF. As NoJ posted, Baines is a class act all the way.

That's high praise! DBT is one of my favorite bands, so I'll have to check this out.

I tried putting all my concerts on setlist.fm about a year ago (it truly was a labor of love) and was amazed to discover that when I saw R.E.M. in 1986, Camper Van Beethoven was the opening band. I had completely forgotten that factoid -- and I love CBV!

Finished hate-watching the last season of House of Cards. Garbage. Enjoyed the Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Just started the Netflix series Staircase.

Thanks. I think this is the 15th time I've seen RT. He never disappoints.
