As of tomorrow, year one of Vinyl Me, D weirdness is in the books. Was able to send 45 records to new, loving homes. It was fun. I'm gonna do it again........with a twist. Last year, I chose 3 winners, and they got the complete haul for the year. This go 'round, I'm changing it up to make it...
For anyone keeping score at home, I just fell down my fucking stairs. Right foot slipped right out from under me. No more socks. Damn, hurts. Will hurt more tomorrow. You don't bounce at 63. You thud. Quickly applied an IPA and a Jesus And Mary Chain record. Best possible remedy.

“I think that music is a spiritual thing and it’s a way of communicating with people on a level that’s deeper than words. It’s a way of expressing something that can’t be expressed in words and it’s a way of touching people’s souls.” - Neal Casal, born this day in 1968. Thanks for everything. Hope you found peace.
"When women make their image about youth and sexuality, and not about intellect, that's kind of a dead-end road. So I think it's a combination of self-entrapment and entrapment by society." - k. d. lang, born this day in 1961.
"I am very proud of the fact that 20 years on people tell me they became a vegetarian as a result of 'Meat is Murder'. “I think that is quite literally rock music changing someone's life - it's certainly changing the life of animals.
