The Warner Bros. Beacon Theatre was opened on December 24, 1929. The 2,657 cap theater was a movie palace only until 1966 when they started having live entertainment. It was turned into a rock venue in 1974. Here's the original vertical sign & marquee. #marqueespotting

Took these at SXSW 2012 when Jimmy Cliff sat in with Bruce Springsteen. Also caught Jimmy Cliff’s solo set that week too. He was excellent. RIP Legend

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

The great Tom Petty, gone eight years ago today.
Of “I Won’t Back Down”, he said: more fans connected to the song “than anything I ever wrote. I've had so many people tell me that it helped them. .. I'm still amazed about the power a little three-minute song has.” 🙏🏼
