“You’d probably be the first band in history to play a green Egg and Haim.”

One of my favorite moments from Djo’s Boston show was this literal dad joke.
Review & Setlist: And when Djo is back in Boston, we feel it

I searched “small round bed” online shopping for furniture and I don’t know how I didn’t anticipate this, but, it was all dog beds.

I thought #SNL50 was kind of a blast. I got

• to hear Meryl Streep make “Devil Wears Prada” and “Into The Woods” jokes.
• to learn a new Cher line.
• to see Keke Palmer and Miley Cyrus reunite.
• to hear Paul McCartney sing “Carry That Weight.”
