This 6-minute folk ballad waltz is sure to get the joint jumpin'.

I'm not saying I'm in midseason form yet, but that 2nd-inning organ medley of Wilco's "Jesus, Etc." into BTS' "Dynamite" was totally decent.

I’m not often star-struck, but…

AND it's only three weeks until Katy Perry's half birthday, so this request is perfect!

Who let this guy into the ballpark? Coming up shortly.

Kicking off Home Opening Day with Sam Cooke's "Bring It On Home To Me." ⚾ 🎹

Had a lovely time chatting with Tom Caron and Lenny DiNardo yesterday on the "310 To Left" podcast about getting ready for today's Home Opener at Fenway: podbay.fm/p/310-to-lef... (conversation starts around the 34-minute mark).

If you're at a Red Sox home game and you want to send me a song request, this is the best place to do it. If you prefer to send it via Twitter, that's okay. If you prefer to send it via some other means, I may or may not see it in time. Thanks! Let's have an awesome Red Sox season together! ⚾ 🎹

Talking about practice. Not a game.

Stopped by the office to hand in my “What I Did Over Winter Vacation” essay. Home Opener First Pitch in 46h 35m.

Tour Diary, Day 2: I made a new friend in Manchester England.

Tour Diary, Day 1: Touring is a great privilege; today I get to visit a country I’ve never been to and really immerse myself in its culture during a 2-hour airport layover in the middle of the night before jetting off to another country to immerse myself in the culture of a windowless rehearsal room

WSJ: "Decapitation Is Hell. But Is It Good For Losing Weight?"

Helping Mom & Dad go through boxes of their old cassettes… this one has been the best find so far:

The text chain with my college roommates currently has all of us not remembering how we ended up with an 8-track player (and a modest but strong collection of tapes for it) in the mid '90s. We do remember this tape being in heavy rotation, though:

First audio multi-tracking experience for 7-year-old niece was a success! This song is called "Mister Avocado."

You may be cool, but you're not "George Benson in the first four seconds of the 'Give Me the Night' video" cool. Sound ON

I know I'm preaching to the choir with this, but I really think you'd sound better if you had choir practice.

Was gonna bring Cheez Whiz to a potluck, but then I found out it's kind of a fancy event, so I'm bringing Goat Cheez Whiz.

Last week, this was happening next week. This week, it's happening this week!

So many folks who thought Born in the USA was a pro-America song are suddenly worried about not understanding lyrics.

The less said about the time I ended up in a room with this dunce the better, but I appreciate that the photographic evidence shows me scowling at him from the stage.

It’s gonna take a couple weeks to wrap my head around this one.

Does anyone know if that damn groundhog saw his shadow? I don't know if I can handle six more weeks of Edgar Winter.

"Melania" opening weekend in Boston has sold 92 tickets out of 3,847 seats.

Our country was founded on protesting unjust laws.

If anyone needs me, I'll just be over here making out with the entire showroom at Control Voltage in NE PDX OR.

Try harder, street! You can do it!

Recording an album in Seattle this week with The Split Squad at a studio that is pretty much keyboard heaven.

Okay, maybe I’ll just skip my flight.

Saints be praised! I found my 1992 “End of the Road” cassingle with “Instrumental Version” on the B-side. Also, shame on spellcheck for not recognizing “cassingle.”

@tookymonster.bsky.social Saw this license plate in Illinois today and thought of you…

Blood, Sweat & Tears has had eleven Daves and twenty-one drummers, but they've never had a drummer named Dave.

Time to try and figure out how and why this movie left such a lasting mark on me back in the ‘80s.

Friend: Josh, can you put some guitar on this song? And it should sound kind of bad, like almost (but not quite) on purpose. Me: You've come to the right place.
