Radioactivity - Time Won’t Bring Me Down. After a 9 year wait, it is good to have a new Radioactivity LP. Dirtnap Records edition on green vinyl.

Singles Going Spooky. Happy Halloween! #musicsky #seveninchsingles #spooky

Happy birthday Bela. Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi’s Dead 12””. I usually hate picture disc but this glow-in-the-dark one is super cool. 🧛 #musicsky #bauhaus #goth #vinyl #belalugosi

St. Louis wasn’t going to let a lot of rain stop the resistance.

The Oxys from Austin, TX at The Heavy Anchor in St. Louis, MO 10/2.

The Hives at Evolution Fest 9/27. The Hive never disappoint.

Chuck D gave a talk and displayed his art at Legend’s Gallery. Later Public Enemy destroyed the stage at Evolution Festival in STL. 9/26/25 The greatest hip-hop group to ever do it. @chuckdpe.bsky.social @flavorflav.bsky.social

De La Soul & Talib Kweli performing at Music At The Intersection 9/14/25

Common & Pete Rock at Music At The Intersection in St. Louis 9/13/25. #musicsky #hiphop #common #peterock

Sultans - Shipwrecked Here is one that I have been patiently waiting for a vinyl version to be released. It only took 21 years (!) #swamirecords #swamijohnreis #musicsky

When worlds collide. I saw Lil Jon at a NASCAR race yesterday.

Who said it - Kenneth Parcel or RFK jr?

Who is running the country while the nazi party is Weekend At Bernie-ing the rotten pumpkin? Theil? Miller? Big Balls? Who is your guess?

Whatever…. Into Darker Days. I started out with whatever’s latest album and followed it up with the other 2 albums in reverse chronological order. #whatever #punk #musicsky

Michael Dean Damron - Plea From A Ghost Early this week, I read the sad news about Michael Dean’s death. I was blown away by his talent and sincerity when I saw him play. His music touched a lot of people and will live on. RIP MDD

Thanks to whoever recommended this book. I sat down & plowed through it in one sitting. It’s a bit scary how a nonfiction book from 1993 feels like a prediction that is a couple of years away. I just reserved Parable of The Talents from my library. #octaviaEbutler #booksky

Ben Nicols & Cory Branan at The Golden Record, STL. #musicsky

Vandoliers at Off Broadway in St. louis on 7/25. @vandoliers.bsky.social #musicsky This was a phenomenal and fun show. Go see Vandoliers when they play your sitting.

The Baby Huey Story.

Clipse - Let God Sort Em Out. All the hype is true. This album is a masterpiece. Welcome back #clipse

Plague Vendor in St. Louis last night.

Social Distortion at The Pageant in StL 7/10

Rainbow & colorful sunset tonight.

My impulse buy at the grocery store. Dolly Parton is an example of a great American. Be like Dolly.

Run The Jewels - RTJ Sometimes you gotta close your eyes and count to fuck. #rtj @el-p.bsky.social

Dead Prez - Lets Get Free #deadprez #hiphop #musicsky #vinyl

The Darts at The Sinkhole in STL 6/19/25 #TheDarts #musicsky #live

it is, again, intensely funny that the entire country threw a massive "fuck that guy's birthday party" party in response to trump's birthday party

St. Louis showed up today. My daughter made me a sign since she couldn’t join me. I had to let her know her message got out to the masses. #downwithtrump #nokings

Chuck D Presents Enemy Radio - Radio Armageddon. A friend once said that if God was real, his voice would sound like Chuck D. I 100% agree with that. I’ll back anything Chuck releases. The latest album sounds like a hot mixtape made by the Bomb Squad. #ChuckD #PublicEnemy #DefJam #hiphop #musicsky

The Briefs - Hit After Hit Another classic. Or soon to be classic? How old does an album need to be to be “classic”? #TheBriefs #DirtnapRecords #punkrock #musicsky

Rolling Stones - Beggar’s Banquet. I tend to listen to the classics on Sunday morning. You can’t get much more classic than this. #rollingstones #muscisky

Kim Deal - Nobody Loves You More. I think this is my favorite release of the year so far. I knew it would be good, but still surprised how much I have been playing the album.

The Effigies at Off Broadway STL 5/29. #theeffigies #chicagopunk #offbroadwaystl

Kendrick Lamar - GNX The one/two punches of Wacced Out Murals and Squabble Up, get me every time. Kendrick knows how to come out swinging.

On my old Instagram, I had a series of 4 items arranged into the Black Flag bars as a long running dumb joke. Here is my 1st on Bluesky. Enjoy! #potatoflag #blackflag

How do you keep going when you wake up to new, fresh hell each morning? I know it’s part of the plan, but I feel powerless. No amount of phone calls, emails, or protests are going to change my Missouri maga politicians or sway the cult members. It is getting harder to spot anything positive.

The Damned in NOLA 5/16/25. Incredible #thedamned #musicsky

The Adverts Civic Theater, NOLA #musicsky #theadverts

I walked by a café in the French quarter and saw Paul Gray. I wasn’t sure if it was him so I asked if he was going to The Damned show. He replied I hope so. I’m supposed to play bass tonight. #thedamned #paulgray #theblackalbum #nola #muscisky

The Soul Rebels at Le Bon Temps Roule, NOLA 5/15/25

Didjits - Strictly Dynamite! The Best of Didjits #musicsky #Didjits #garagerock

The Bronx - III This is my least played album by The Bronx, but that is like saying “the 3rd giant bag of cash I found, is my least favorite”. They all are great. I could listen to the opening track - Knifeman, on repeat all day and still want to hear it again.

James Brown - Sex Machine 2xLP I love how worn the spindle hole is on this thrift store found record. I alway imagine all the cool parties and dance sessions that this album inspired or provided the soundtrack. #musicsky #jamesbrown #doubleLP

I hadn’t heard of Spiritual Cramp before seeing them last night but I’m now a fan. #musicsky #livemusic #spiritualcramp

Cock Sparrer - Two Monkeys Every time I listen to this record, it bugs me that it is called 2 Monkeys but there are 3 on the cover. Other than that, it is a great album. This one in the 2013 reissue from the equal great Pirates Press Records. #musicsky #cocksparrer #piratespress

I know it is a cliché to say this, but when I heard the Ramones, my life changed and I knew I found my tribe. Happy 49th anniversary to their debut. #musicsky #RAMONES

Territories - When The Day Is Done 10” EP. Listen to Lockdown and Quit This City on this EP, and then tell me why this band isn’t more well known. They should in every punk’s collection of records.

Czarface Meets Metal Face. #7L #esoteric #InspectahDeck #MFDOOM #hiphopvinyl #musicsky

Listening to records while debating going to Record Store Day festivities. De La Soul - The Grind Date 20th anniversary double LP reissue. #musicsky #delasoul @wearedelasoul.com
