18 years into marriage and today - the day I received a Joni Mitchell box set - is the day my wife tells me she hates Joni Mitchell.
Signed up for my first Ultra. Gulp.
Anyone know what happens to records left on your doorstep all day at -45? Thanks Canada Post.
Ice Fog is the worst weather. Currently taking suggestions on cold weather songs.
-33 and sunrise at 11:04am. Dark days of winter indeed.
Cyber Monday splurge? $200 Canadian Dollars for the Dylan mono box set.
After seeing that a flood washed out the highway in and out of Vancouver I hope my family and friends are safe (they are - I called). But does it make me a bad person that my second thought was concern that my records shipped out of there in time?
The Tragically Hip’s Road Apples is a Canadian Classic. Miss you Gord.
When you give a rating on Discogs (out of 5 Stars), what are you rating?
The music? The mastering & pressing quality? The packaging? A combination of those? Something else?
I base mine on the quality of the music, but am genuinely curious what others do.
Another successful liquor-treat in the books. Shout out to my neighbor serving the Don Julio 1942.
Flying (and going to a big city) for the first time in 2 years today. Feels weird.
Really great long form piece by Michael Azerrad about his friendship w/ Kurt Cobain:
My Time with Kurt Cobain
Befriending a rock star isn’t necessarily as cool as you’d think—particularly when tragedy happens.www.newyorker.com
Things I enjoy:
1) Seeing the Aurora Borealis while walking home from the bar.
2) Ordering $300 in jazz records when I get home from the bar.
Update: My son got a saxophone yesterday and it sounds like he’s already mastered Free Jazz. It sounds like I might have the next Peter Brötzmann or Albert Ayler on my hands.
I love that my 12 year old son loves playing music, but buying instruments is getting expensive. (And cutting into my vinyl buying budget.)
First day back to school and I’m exhausted. Time for a glass of port and some jazz records.
Running a Trail Marathon tomorrow and am refreshing my running playlist. What’s your favourite running/workout song?
Great morning to listen to records and stare at the falling snow. Smh.
Came home from the post office with a package of 4 new records. Wife and kids were busy getting the green house set up. Perfect right? I can listen to music in peace. Brewed myself a tea and put the new Fleet Foxes on. Before I finish Side A, everyone clamoured in, talking over the music, dog barking, and started vacuuming up the dirt they had dragged in.
TL/DR: A Greenhouse is a great place to hide bodies. -
