I know folks are hoping for thunderstorms to ruin that DC debacle tonight, but can you please focus those wishes directly on the WH and not the whole DMV? Orville Peck and I would appreciate that. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Looking forward to a little Sunday Funday.

West Virginia observation: There are more couches on the side of the road than I had anticipated.

Random urge to rearrange my closet for summer. Came to the realization that the only thing I need dress clothes for these days is for funerals. Now I’m a bit depressed.

Now *that’s* a fucking record!

How have I never seen “Paris is Burning”?

Interesting that these shows are back-to-back, and that the Lydon-less Sex Pistols show is the one that's sold out already. Awkward.

Certification Successful! I love knowing that by the time I need to renew, I’ll be so close to retirement I won’t give a fuck.

Me 35 years ago today.

Happy Coming Out Anniversary to ME!

Had a great time at Woodmoorstock yesterday. A bunch of live bands...fun time with friends...beautiful day to just be outside walking around. 10/10!

After 6.5 hours of confcalls, I’m finally sitting out back with a beer and some Bob Marley. #TGIF

I'm not above leaving work early for cheap wings and beer. Love The Quarry House!

oops! 🤫

Mr. P's. I didn't know where else to go. My 2nd time there someone looked me up and down and just said "You should be at JRs." He had to tell me where it was.😆

In a mood. Time for some Dogfish therapy.

50 years of The Slickee Boys. Most-likely their final show, but we’ve been hearing that for years. Fantastic night with great music and dear friends.

The Band That Refused To Die! The possible return of Dan!? Hell yeah!!

So you're telling me there's a chance...

I’m officially out of fucks for the week, so let’s start Slickee Boys Weekend a little earlier than expected.

Oh no! Awful news about Peelander-Z.

I’m not sure what’s up in the Psychedelic Furs camp right now, but I can’t stop listening to this record. “Made of Rain” 2020.

Pretty sure he’s mistaking “Days of Our Lives” for the news.

Unexpected solo evening. What to do.....?🤔

Nats are putting on quite the Home Run Derby today!

This hits pretty close to home. Trying to get back to my daily treadmill routine. Today was the first time in a couple months - even though I actually enjoy it. It all starts with Day 1.

Robert Fripp says he still doesn’t know why a hospital orderly shaved his balls after his heart attack stereogum.com/2500053/robe...

I think Pride Night would be a good time to bring this to Nats Park. Just sayin’.

I love people who are like “Cosmo and a pizza please! That’ll be for here.

So good. Laurie Anderson is a treasure.

Things I didn’t know I needed…

Thou shalt not let these evil motherfuckers win.

Music has always had the ability to speak to us, and for us, in a way nothing else can. That’s why, if you want to understand the last 250 years of American life, one of the best ways to do it is to listen to the music that defined them.

That current "Top 100 Punk Albums" list is a bit triggering. It's great to see so many DC bands in the list, but I don't think I got to #90 before declaring the list to be garbage. No link because it's crap.

Temps in the 90s today. Clothing-optional.

Progress!

Guilty. Maybe 2026 is the new 2011? A year when nobody thought they'd get close to .500, but they (almost) did it. They started picking up momentum over the years after that, leading to the World Series in 2019. Could this be the turnaround year? TBD - But I'm here for it.

This Guardian book list has me feeling guilty for not reading so much over the last couple months. I’ve been spending too much time studying for this work thing that I probably don’t really need to study that much for. Reading for fun > Studying for work

Nats + O’s + Hot Dog Day = Crazy crowds. Beautiful night for baseball though. Plus great seats from friends. Good times.

Released on this day in 1985. New Order - "The Perfect Kiss." Still a contender for my favorite dance song ever. Oh, those nights at Poseurs. "Let's go out and have some fun."

Looking forward to an evening alone. A night of everything and nothing.

They may actually finish this thing.

Just stop.

Did absolutely nothing on my impromptu day off. The most productive part was going out to get lunch. Currently laying on the couch, listening to records,and watching Dr. Pimple Popper with the sound off. It’s been wonderful!
