OH NO DID HE EAT ALL THE CAKE......???? www.townandcountrymag.com/society/trad...

I will be reading at this on the 2nd day. Looks cool! FYI: Come are probably my fave Amerindie band of the 90s. I love every song they recorded. Also: *Breakfast with P.G. SIX* should definitely be my new favorite podcast. Thank you to Karen Schoemer for asking me to read at this!

Such a great show last night in the woods of Wendell, MA! Lots of people came out for it and it was so nice to see folks and read and listen to great music. Liz Durette was awesome. Slowpoke Records were likewise awesome. Go see them! Everyone was great. Great to hear Toshi! I know the nicest peeps.

Trigger Warning: I will be reading in the woods tonight. To soften that blow there will be amazing music to listen to as well. *Slowpoke Records* are my favorite *Animal Piss It's Everywhere* side-project. They do a gazey Ride/Spacemen3 thing that really floats my boat.

This is the kind of personal touch that I'm known for at my record store.

Another choice moment from Oshima's 1971 film The Ceremony. Granny with the truth bomb!

You have to see the wedding scene in Nagisa Oshima's The Ceremony from 1971. So pitiful! So sad! What a crazy friggin' movie.

I had no idea that Quentin Dupieux was Mr. Oizo!! Mind blown. I had no idea that the movies I've been enjoying were being made by the person who made the genius album Analog Worms Attack! He has a new movie out with Tim & Eric. Looking forward.

My favorite headline this week from my favorite local paper...

You have never heard this EP by all-female Texas trio Disbanned from 1983, but apparently they are the unwitting pioneers of Gen Z's fashion-sense. The EP is good if you are a fan of Suburban Lawns and Pylon. Buy one online while they are still cheap.

Maria and I will be at Epsilon tonight for the big Glenn Jones, Dredd Foole & Wednesday Knudsen, Lys Guillorn, Liam Grant, Allysen Callery show! Here is a shot of Nace and me at that cool church show a few weeks back. Me and Bill are starting a new duo. Nothing but Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper covers!

There is a hippie drug jam festival in the woods here this weekend and I am ready in case anyone gets lost and wanders in to the store...

Finally, a 2026 summer anthem for me. I used to hope that American pop music would sound like this in the future. I never liked the weirdly retro sounds they always played in sci-fi shows and movies. Mission accomplished, 2Slimey! #peakoil #policestate www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9Qk...

A screenshot of BJ The Messenger's performance of "Crackhead" from his appearance on Stairway To Stardom in 1990. I went to some very interesting places on YouTube last night...

So cool. I will see you there and I will read your ass off!

My local town music fest this summer. I'm crossing my fingers that Swamp Dogg comes in my store. He gets everything free! AI-font fest posters make all the names look AI-generated. A flock of Geese fans coming my way!

It's the semi-official anniversary of the time years ago when my brother gave Parker Posey the painting I painted of her. Much to her dismay. Sorry, Parker! Love you! I can't help but laugh every time I see this though...

All she has is ANOTHER really big hat in her bag. And some Altoids. And that's it! Kind of a weird episode... www.youtube.com/watch?v=stoX...

The first music writing I've done in over a decade. I had to stop at 15 records or I would have kept going forever. Maybe a sequel someday. Thanks to my kid for the actual photos of album covers. This was fun. Please share if you like. Link in comments.

I've never wanted to listen to RATM (though I have had to hear them...) but I do enjoy listening to the Inside Out single, Zach's pre-Rage band that was almost/not quite Krishna-core. Their guitarist joined Shelter. But my point is: I think Inside Out might have pioneered the ironic fanny pack.

Harmony Korine's daughter is my kinda nepo baby. I learned it from you, dad! She should totally remake Boxing Helena in dayglo AI. www.youtube.com/watch?v=az1f...

I know. I know. Bernie Sanders and Tom of Finland had a baby? He's too good to be true. He blames Trump on the Dems! He is a leftist dream. Don't get too wet listening to this. I just like hearing someone who can speak in full sentences. That is my low bar now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cecJ...

Man oh man, if Amna Nawaz had a late night radio show she would make Alison Steele sound like Wolfman Jack. Her voice is like butter. Oof. My kinda ASMR. And, oh yeah, far-right Christian extremism is bad! (Her interview show is great by the way...) www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKzf...

Nice shout-out to Robert Mondavi... www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MUu...

One year ago today! The story that touched all of our hearts...

I like finding old bookmarks... #booksky

Peak grungegaze! www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJ1U...

FYI: The U.S. promo edit is FOUR SECONDS shorter than the album version. Just thought you should know...

Did you know that Maine candidate for U.S. Senator Graham Platner's grandfather designed Windows on the World in the Word Trade Center? It makes you think.... It didn't actually make me think... Kinda cool though...

When is Severin or whover going to put out the ultimate CUBE TRILOGY dvd box set? I'm always thinking of CUBE. And, yes, I will totally watch A24's new CUBE RIPOFF liminal space dead mall creepypasta whateverthefuck movie that is out now. Backrooms. Of course I will.

@aarondilloway.bsky.social it's the a capella version at the end with the original show footage that get me every time. Whoever decided to upload THAT version of this deserves a medal from younger me on acid. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dEl...

So much fun! (Worth it just for the *allergic to alcohol* joke alone...) www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmIx...

I watched Apex. It's like Wolf Creek if it were a big budget movie starring Charlize Theron. I liked it! But I will watch ANY movie that is basically an epic survival journey through the wild. I don't care if it stars a dog or a cat or a cat and a dog or Charlize Theron. I am simple that way.

I watched a movie last night. Aaron Eckhart and former Fila Fresh Crew member and Ruthless Records recording star The D.O.C. saved some cows. But not without great cost. #itsgettingfunky #inthecompanyofmen

Underrated faux Prince we have enjoyed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRHH...

Pete Hegseth speaks in AI when he gives a speech. You can always tell when someone separates their sentences like a slam poet.

You might need to see this...maybe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mujT...

Best Dee Wallace Stone shout-out in hip-hop. unagi.bandcamp.com/track/favori...

This was probably exciting to someone once...maybe.

Mort Walker hated grunge. This made me laugh so hard and I've kept it for 30+ years. (I'm mean and have totally thought about posting it after someone writes one of those endless social media eulogies for some musician I couldn't stand...but I don't. I'm not THAT mean.)

Posting my old Village Voice music reviews again in case people missed them and needed some dumbassery from the dawn of the 21st century. Link in comments!

The pilot wasn't great, but the second episode (and beyond) of the new Tracy Morgan show had me LAUGHIN'! Even Harry Potter made me laugh! Not to mention my hero Bobby Moynihan.

goodbye winter...

Find Vachel's Caedmon album. Well worth owning - even with insensitive Congo poem - if you are an experimental vocal fan. He was ahead of his time. He recorded his poems in 1931. The same year he killed himself via a bottle of lye. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Gzw...
