“Black Rabbit” is the cross between “Top Chef,” “Ozark,” and “The Bear” I never knew I wanted until now.

Here’s to John Bonham, who died OTD in 1980. A goddamn monster truck of a drummer who also is one of the best beat scientists ever. Case in point: the absolute wizardry of his “Fool In the Rain” beat. #Bonham #LedZeppelin #BonzoLives

Today's playlist b/c I've been informed that fall funtivities are kicking off this weekend, whether I'm ready or not. Ft. Tedeschi Trucks Band, MMJ, Dawes, Jim effin' Croce, Sturgill, Mallet Bros Band, Old 97s, Drive-By Truckers & more. #playlist #fall open.spotify.com/playlist/2j6...

Tom's 'Jump to Conclusions' game feels pretty timely these days www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDEL...

HORDE 97 at Great Woods in Massachusetts is a core memory for me. How could it not be? Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Beck, Primus, Soul Coughing, Ben Folds Five, Ween. Amazing. What more could a music-loving high school kid want?

Eggy is doing John Brown Body's covers?

We don’t call everyone who disagrees with us a Nazi, JD, just the ones doing Nazi shit like: -masked secret police kidnapping people off the street -creating concentration camps -attempting to eradicate trans people -banning/burning LGBTQ/opposing viewpoint books -murdering fishermen in open waters

With today being the anniversary of Nirvana releasing 'Nevermind,' I wanted to share this piece I wrote a few years ago about Nirvana, my friend Dave & the endless power of music-associated memories giddyupamerica.com/2021/09/24/n...

I have no clue what to make of this but consider me a little bit interested with that level of interest having the potential to increase based on initial findings. I mean Hootie, the drummer for the Black Crowes & REM’s bassist? Actually, saying it that way kind of only adds to the confusion.

Gotta say…that “Golden” tune from KPop Demon Hunters is pretty good.

Based on the pile of shoes by my door, I don't know if the rapture happened or if it's just that my kids are home from school.

"Well, obviously we need to write another strongly worded letter." "Obviously." "And obviously this all just a distraction." "Obviously." (pause) "A distraction from what?" "Oh, I have no idea."

Years ago, I was going thru some shit, bummed out & by myself on an empty airport in So California, grappling w/ the sudden death of my Uncle John. I listened to “Waiting on a Sunny Day” by Bruce Springsteen on repeat to get me thru. I’ll always be grateful to Bruce for that. Happy birthday Boss.

Tylenol right now

It’s my least favorite day of the year: Take the Beach Stuff Out of the Car for the Season Day.

I purposely ignored the Phish Hampton shows until today, so I had something new to listen to on Monday.

What movie do you consider "perfect?"

The 2025 New England Patriots

Mr. Saturday Morning

I can't think of Phish & Hampton without thinking of the '98 shows & the horn on "Cavern," and anytime I hear "Cavern," I hear that trumpet, whether it's there or not, and anytime I hear that specific "Cavern," I think of us playing air trumpet to it and on & on it goes. youtu.be/DxahwBkvAlo?...

I mean…the outfits, the audience, the decor on the walls, the damn good Chili Peppers cover… there’s a lot to love here. A lot to love.

"Fascism is a temper tantrum disguised as an ideology" is a great line

Sturgill Simpson announcing that he and the boys have a Johnny Blue Skies & the Dark Clouds record coming out is exactly the kind of good news we need right now.

Been a minute, Eggy, but holy smokes…this rips.

When in doubt, have Jon Stewart make sense of it for you…

It’s going to be interesting to see how SNL handles things during this upcoming season. And you have to think they’re going to go after Seth Meyers next. This is some dark shit and it hasn’t even been a year.

Ridiculousness after Fox host Brian Kilmeade called for euthanasia on the homeless.

Hey, the 'Use Your Illusion' albums by Guns N' Roses came out 34 years ago today, and here are some words about the 5 best songs on the two albums that aren't "November Rain." giddyupamerica.com/2025/09/17/u...

‘Dear Science,’ the excellent 3rd album by TV on the Radio was released OTD in 2008. I still remember seeing them on ‘The Colbert Report,’ back then, playing a wild version of “Dancing Choose” and just being completely blown away. Here’s them playing it a few years later on Letterman.

Hey...new music from Antibalas & that's pretty sweet. @daptonerecords.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0JI...

Alan Sepinwall isn’t just an incredible writer and reliable critic, he’s a valuable resource when it comes to TV’s history. Thankfully there’s still his newsletter. Rolling Stone fell off years ago.

If I owned a stadium, my goal posts could be programmed so that when the uprights get hit, you’d hear “hell yeah!” “Ah, shit” “are you kidding me?” some maniacal laughter & more.

This was dope

In a perfect world, if we're able to crawl out of this Trumpified hellscape, Stephen Miller would be forced to answer for his actions & face consequences. Yet with every day, that world seems further and further away. An unsettling piece by @swin24.bsky.social www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

'The Pitt' has easily been the best thing I've watched this year. I'm happy it got some Emmy love last night. Amazing performances, perpulsive storytelling, great writing. Just killer from top to bottom.

If there’s not a T-shirt available tomorrow morning that says “Go Birds, Fuck ICE, Free Palestine” then someone deserves to be fired

Whenever the Patriots play the Dolphins in Miami…

Listening to football on the radio vs listening to baseball

Second time going to Sea Hear Now up the road in Asbury Park. - De La De La De La (w/Talib) - Great seeing Alabama Shakes for the first time. Hope they stay together. - LCD Soundsystem puts on one of the best shows in the land & are one of the tightest bands. Massive sound, good fun. I’m tired.

I’ve been lucky to see De La Soul 3 times in my life. First time was in Maine w/ 311 & Rustic Overtones. The second was at a Roots Picnic & they were backed by The Roots. Last night was my first time seeing them since Dave’s death & he was definitely missed. Pretty sweet having Talib Kweli drop in.

Not for nothing but another disturbing trend in this country is people already putting up Halloween decorations. I know it’s very low on the list of problems we have but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be addressed. I mean come on. At least wait for summer to be officially over.

Today is Neil Peart Day. If you don’t celebrate by watching at least one of his legendary drum solos, you’re doing a disservice to yourself. #NeilPeart #Drums #Rush

The 90s alt-rock-loving kid in me is having a heck of a good time blasting the new Liquid Mike record because loud, fast music that you can sing along to remains undefeated

Kash Patel when he gets out to Utah

Really excited to check out Alabama Shakes this weekend at Sea Hear Now. Seeing them sandwiched between De La Soul & LCD Soundsystem sounds like a nice lil’ Saturday to me.

Mood for the next 24 hours. Probably for the best.

Nothing says America in 2025 like having to ask "which one?" when someone mentions a shooting that happened today
