If it’s the last Saturday of the month, Big Trouble is at the White Squirrel. Come say hi.

Ah yes, perfect ‘90s albums but no Nirvana, etc.

What are the equivalent excluded ‘00s albums?

Funeral? Is This It? Silent Alarm?

It's the last Saturday of the month, so Big Trouble is at the White Squirrel tonight. Come see if @twinkiejigggles.bsky.social has a holiday costume to rival his Cat in The Hat for the October gig.

Nate Shelley in Ted Lasso is a good argument for some timid people never gaining confidence.

It’s legitimately wild that someone uploaded a recording of the first Pearl Jam show I saw from 1992. Six months after I got the tape, two months after I started playing guitar. Hard to imagine a more high-leverage moment for 15yo Steve. youtu.be/GPS0Lgk38lg?...

Fully thought we were talking about James Cameron and Avatar here for a sec.
I’ve always chocked it up to noble-savage racism too. I think he has empathy for Native Americans not because they are victims of atrocities, but rather in the way one has empathy for a blue whale or bengal tiger.

Sadly, the widespread jerk shortages of the ‘90s are a thing of the past. We’re never going to run out of jerks now.

One of the great things about teaching is working with three consecutive students on “Enter Sandman,” “Here, There and Everywhere” and “Giant Steps.”

It’s actually kind of impressive that Avatar continues to be a huge cinematic franchise with ads and articles and featurettea and hype despite absolutely no one giving one half shit about it for 20 years. The best thing in the Avatar universe is the Ryan Gosling SNL sketch.

If Paul Hogan’s memoir isn’t called “That’s Not A Life, This Is A Life,” I’m going to be very disappointed.
