    RIP Charles Bradley

    Had the great pleasure of seeing him perform six times. He was always humble and appreciative of the people who came to see him.

     

    I missed the pre-show he did before Newport Folk Fest started but saw him a day or two later backstage at the fest. He looked frail. Sad day today. I've posted a couple photos of him on my instagram today and might do a couple more.

    nice shots, Tim

    My Vikings have 2 top flight QBs with fucked up knees and are in a great position to sign Kaepernick to lead them until Bridgewater can come back. Think they will?? I'm not holding my breath. It's more acceptable in America in 2017 to scar your 4-year-old son's thighs and scrotum with a switch than to sit out the national anthem.

    I was disappointed that the Seahawks didn't sign him to be backup. They had the chance. We'll just hope Wilson lives through the O line this year.

    Top 5 teams, after Week 2?

     

    1. Chiefs

    2. Falcons

    3. Patriots

    4. Raiders

    5. Steelers

    it's early. this weekend against the Titans will be a test for my Seahawks. I'm officially worried. thank God we have a great D. my other team, the Raiders, are looking fantastic. there could be something magical going on there with Beast Mode bringing the extra oomph. fun so far!

    I dunno...everyone around me is also a life long Jets fan. It's just one of those things, right? You grow up with it, it comes from your family, etc. A friend of mine used to have season tickets, until the new stadium required seat licenses and he could no longer afford them. Their practice field is less than 10 miles from my house. :/

    understood. i put up with a lot of bad years in Seattle. i was just teasing you. :)

    Pete was on the Tonight show doing "Love Reign O'er Me". He looked & sounded great. Reminded myself why I can't watch Fallon. Fallon is so obnoxious with his fawning thing. Don't think he's that funny either. Sorry, got off track. Was worth putting up with to see Pete.

    if you don't think that Pollard was the greatest songwriter at some point in his life, consider "Do The Earth" and "He's The Uncle" were both obscure b sides... 

    Robert has said that he can write 3 songs whilst on the toilet & 2 them would be good. Saying that he is a character is a vast understatement. I used to have 2 records of nothing but his drunken rants during shows. Hilarious.

    Yeah, like maybe a couple notches better than everything since they got back to it, right?

     

    I've only streamed it but it seemed like it had more memorable tunes than Class Clown, or Bears for Lunch etc.

    The last one was pretty good, too although maybe could've used a little editing. Not Robert's strong suit haha. The current lineup is strong with Bobby Bare Jr & Doug Gillard. I read 1 review that compared the current era/lineup with the TVT era. Not a bad comparison. There were a lot of good songs on the TVT records & the production values were a little higher. The only bad thing these days (& for awhile now) is the overgrown frat boy contingent. Gets tiresome. Wasn't that way in the earlier years. First time I saw them was Alien Lanes era & have been a loyal follower. I gave up on trying to be a completist though. Got to be too much.
