Watching a PBS fundraiser special on Celtic Thunder where one of the interstitial talking heads said “like many of you, we’ve been watching Celtic Thunder for years” and an involuntary, incredulous “YEARS?!?!?!?” came out of my mouth

TIL (or possibly re-L) that Anthony Head and Murray Head are brothers

I wonder if Fantasia is planning to release an album named “Slift”

It’s me, your friend who has been obsessed with “Catwalk” by T99 for more than three decades

This is very fun

Finally listening to the new Boards of Canada album. I’m on “Hydrogen Helium Lithium Leviathan”. I love it so far.

I sang in a fundraiser on Mother’s Day for the Lewis D Brown Peace Institute (my songs are Anyone Can Whistle at 33:34 and When You’re Good To Mama at 50:10)

I am biased for obvious reasons but damn there are some fantastic songs on All Eternals Deck

If I only got into Low as of Ones and Sixes and love their last three albums, what is the next one I should listen to?

Chain a bunch of bands together for no good reason The The Smiths and Mighty Mighty Bosstones On Tailgunner

Twentysomething me would be absolutely appalled by how little I care about seeing The Mandalorian and Grogu

You know what, “Hips Don’t Lie” is a jam

This is amazing

What’s the likelihood Gorillaz gets into the RRHOF before The Archies? (Note: “neither will get in” responses will get muted)

I hadn’t pegged the governor of Montana as a big Cure fan

If you are looking for a fantastic meal in Boston, check out Baleia

Eurovision: The Story of Fire Saga is a fantastic movie and Rachel McAdams is a treasure

I decided I was going to drastically reduce the number of negative things I say on the internet and my posting frequency cratered

The current President is obsessed with putting his name on things. Public facilities are always in demand; people need to use the toilet. Therefore, how about we ask the US Government to build a network of public restrooms and collectively call them “Trumps”? That serves both needs.

I’ve been playing Leaves Turn Into You the past few days and I’m thinking it’s time for me to finally do a deeper dive into the Unwound discography

Here’s my vote for the most millennial song of all time

Now moving on to The Ark, which I’ve never actually seen before It feels very obvious that Dodo is a placeholder companion

Why is The Ambassadors of Death so long?

Silver Nemesis is very silly but the line “Hello! I’m the Doctor! I believe you want to kill me!” is one of the best of the 7th Doctor’s run.

Nothing will prepare you for this. Nothing.

I binged the Malcolm int eh Middle reboot last night and it was absolutely perfect

TIL there are people who hate “Purple Rain” and “Synchronicity II”

I am not clicking on that Jacobin music article, I don’t care how many dunks you post about it

I had a brief panic moment where I thought I had confused Willie Mays with Hank Aaron but my dad assured me I got it right. He also noted that due to the age difference, Mays was much more a contemporary of his older cousin (RIP) than him.

A piece of family history that absolutely shocked me when I learned it is when my my dad was a young kid, he knew Willie Mays. Also, at least one, possibly two of my mom’s uncles played Negro League baseball with him.

TIL Lou Rhodes is still releasing music and honestly, life is a little brighter now that I know this

Putting it out there: “Mutual Core” is an underrated Björk song

“The Shire, but make it techno”

I will always go to bat for the first Passion Pit album

Ah, Wisconsin

My dad is playing Yacht Rock on Sirius FM and comparing the quality of singers from this genre and time period to the people we have now just makes me feel embarrassed for what we consider acceptable now

They be telling on themselves with the "everyone has a Nazi phase" bullshit. Um, no we didn't have a Nazi phase. Why, did you? Did your homies have them? Is Nazism a natural life stage to you?

Someone tell me why Deborah Cox wasn’t a superstar on the level of Whitney and Mariah

That’s me in the corner That’s me in the spotlight Seething at your Prince takes (It’s very funny to me how much I think I’ve mellowed into reasonable Prince mania right up until some innocent internet person isn’t overtly deferential to his music, at which point I find myself baring my fangs)

I feel like this MIN/DEN game was an excellent way to start my NBA season

My husband somehow completely missed nu-metal and I don’t know that I’ve ever been more envious of another human being

Hot take: Post Malone is decent

I have been rolling through Massive Attack albums this week and my hot take is that they are all classic

“Isle of Man (Version II)” is the best Ministry song. I will not be taking any further questions at this time.
