    Beyonce was genuinely shocked. And, I don’t wanna start nothin’, but Kacey didn’t seem pleased.

    I dig the local business spots. People are going to be critical of the Grammys no matter what, but I think that was a pretty good decision.

    Rest easy Marianne. First song I thought of was her cover of Tom Waits’ ‘Strange Weather’ featuring Garth Hudson on accordion.

    Was looking with my sister. She’s in the market. Probably didn’t help that we went after her birthday dinner which featured some strong margaritas.

    Man, buying a new television used to be so simple. Not unrelated…I used to be so much younger.

    A Simple Twist Of Fate - The Bob Dylan Thread

    I'm not aware of any studio version of 'Tell Me Momma', or even word that it was ever attempted in the studio. That seems crazy to me. I'm thankful for the various live performances of the tune from '66, and it has always been a highlight for me from those shows. Surprising to me that it was a...

    It happens every year. I’m kicking myself for not listening to Mary Timony’s release from 2024 in time to include in my year end list. No shade to the Kim Deal album because I really like that record too, but the sound of “Untame the Tiger” is closer to what I was expecting on “Nobody Loves You...

    Baseball

    Totally agree. I think bad chemistry has ended a bunch of seasons for the Yankees since 2009. Young teams with great farm systems have a chance to surprise the league every now and then, but they have a very limited window. Once those young players develop into superstars and that next...

    Yeah, whenever a big time free agent is available, it is the same 4 or so teams that are mentioned as possible destinations: Dodgers; Yankees; Mets; and Red Sox. The Cubs are often mentioned as well. Big markets with owners willing to pay the tax for over spending. The Yankees used to be the one...

    Baseball

    I’m the opposite. I grew up in Houston in the 80s, and although the Phillies broke the hearts of all Astros fans in that 1980 ALCS, I always loved those Phillies unis of that era. The home pinstripes were great, but there was something about those powder blue road unis that I just really liked a...

    Digging the new Bob Mould song. The sound hearkens back to his classic early solo sound. It's not as dark as most of the stuff on "Black Sheets of Rain", but it also isn't as acoustic leaning as much of "Workbook". It's sort of in between the sound of those two records, but it also wouldn't...

    I didn't completely buy Edward Norton as Seeger. I like Norton a lot as an actor, and he did get some of Seeger down, but not enough for me to truly buy it. There were some scenes early on where I wasn't sure Chalamet really hit the mark, but, for the most part, I feel like he captured Dylan...

    Just saw "A Complete Unknown". Like a lot of Dylan fans, I was initially put off by the choice of Timothée Chalamet to play Bob. I started to come around whenever I saw the final film trailer. I thought the movie was actually good for a music biopic. Good that they only focused on that 4 year...

    RIP Olivia Hussey. I just caught “Black Christmas” on the big screen at the Alamo Drafthouse this past Monday. She’s great as Jess in that movie.

    Best Music 🎶 of 2024!

    It would be cool to get some new songs from Waits. I’m really glad I saw him on that Glitter & Doom tour, as it seems he is likely done with touring. Another artist I would love to get some new material from is Paul Westerberg. Even if it is just more home recordings from his basement. I think...

    I just beat my Aunt at Five Crowns by a single point. She could probably play Five Crowns professionally. Seriously. She’s a master, and she’s cutthroat too. King Kong ain’t got shit on me!
