I couldn't swear to every detail but it's certainly true that it's a story.

He was sorta funny lookin', though. And when he got out of the truck to check the tires, he wasn't wearing shoes, which was strange. So l said to him, "You know your socks don't match? You have one black sock and one yellow sock." And he replied, "Yup I know. Funny thing is l got another pair just like it back home."

Was heading up 35 to the Cities last fall and came up behind an old pickup with Iowa plates. Guy was poking along 5 under the limit. I was just getting ready to pass him when all the sudden he veered hard off the road and into the ditch. I quickly pulled over to check on him. "Are you okay? What the heck happened," I asked. "No, I'm fine," he answered, "I was on my way up to the Fair, you know, and I was just thinkin' about whether to go to the Dairy Building or the 4-H building first. But then I looked down and noticed my turn signal was on."

That's what I see in the app store. Settings shortcut: Everything else > Sync for Lemmy shows v24.03.26-14:56 (122).

I saw it. I'm not in Louisiana or Los Angeles.

Letterkenny introduced me to Japanther, Black Mountain, DZ Deathrays, and a bunch of other bands that would never hit my recommendations on any streaming services.

Stickball was a thing. We played all the time.

Suite for Ma Dukes by Miguel Atwood Ferguson. Live recording of a Dilla tribute concert with a 60 piece orchestra. Stakes Is High with Posdnuos and Talib Kweli is a standout. Album is on Bandcamp and the full concert video is on YouTube.

In the World: From Natchez to New York by Olu Dara. He's the father of Nas (who guests on the album) and an accomplished jazz musician in his own right, but this isn't a jazz album. Okra is in my top three songs about food.

Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway. A mashup of De La Soul and Fela Kuti. "Music is the weapon. Music is the future. Music is the weapon of the future."

A couple old ones:

The Serpent And The Rainbow directed by Wes Craven.

Arachnophobia with Jeff Daniels, John Goodman.

There's quite a few worth watching besides what's already been mentioned.

• Patriot
• Bosch
• Goliath
• The Night Manager
• Sneaky Pete
• Reacher
• Jack Ryan
• Mr. & Mrs. Smith
• Good Omens
• The Man In The High Castle
• The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

I bet we were at some of the same shows if you were doing First Ave/Fine Line/Turf Club/Uptown Bar in the '90s.

I'll take Replacements at 7th Street Entry in early 1986. Westerberg did If Only You Were Lonely solo acoustic as an encore while getting pelted with beer bottles from off stage.

Most memorable (in hindsight) would be Stevie Ray Vaughan at Alpine Valley the night before the helicopter crash.

Super Monster - Ooh La La La

I bought an old iPod at a garage sale awhile ago and this was on it. It took a surprising amount of searching to find, given just the artist's name and song title.

It could be an outtake from Velvet Underground's Loaded. The singer even sounds like a young Lou Reed.

Works with tea, too!
