I enjoyed the GE interview. I still remember my first Bob show… had no idea GE was in the band. My brother and I turned to each other and said “Hey, that’s the guy from SNL!”
Have you had any contact with Don Herron yet?
It’s no Up With People.
Charlotte 26 July will be 50th show unless I somehow intersect with the old man in April.
I always listen to Marc Maron’s WTF podcast, and yesterday he posted an interview with Noah Wyle. Maron talked (again) about how much he loves Planet Waves.
RIP to Marianne Faithfull. You won’t see many things more delightfully bizarre than this.
I barely watch the NFL / don’t really give a damn about which team wins the AFC, and even I am convinced that the refs are absolutely doing everything they can to help the Chiefs win.
My brain is not prepared for that.
I remember Dr Demento playing him.
The last (and only) time these two teams met in the playoffs, I was in the 700 level at the Vet. Washington won and it was Buddy Ryan’s last game.
I planned to finally perfect my Parkour skills this spring so I could wow my kids on TikTok, and now that path to respect appears to be dashed.
There’s no way he wrote that.
I remember standing in line at the Rt 29 Bodo’s with Dave Matthews, but Dave never seemed like a celebrity. A few hours later, I watched him play on-stage with Phish in front of thousands of people.
NYC saw a Betsey Johnson interaction with my 5-year old.
I only ever saw Joan once. It was possibly 15 years ago now at a little 100+ year old theater here in Charlotte that used to be a church. Great building. And she was WONDERFUL. I have no patience for the Dylan fans who still insist on bashing Joan. What a career. What a voice.
I was born in 1973 and ended up being an MTV kid. I can just remember my mom watching the news after John’s death, but my first truly vivid John memory was this video. I’m not sure how heavy the rotation was on MTV, but I feel like it was on a lot. I loved it then and love it now.
I had it new on cassette 40 years ago, and am now standing in the kitchen singing all the words to Slime Creatures from Outer Space to the dog.
All five living US Presidents will be at Jimmy Carter’s state funeral, and CNN has called them “the world’s most exclusive club”.
There are only four people alive today who could possibly call themselves a former Beatle (Paul, Ringo, Pete Best, Jimmy Nicol).
It’s no Wiggle Wiggle.
I remember Francie (and May Pang) posting on rec.music.beatles back in 1994 / 1995. I can’t recall if any interesting details were shared, but the reaction from certain fans to both was quite vitriolic. I seem to remember Francie getting very heated and May staying polite but just giving up.
