Mostly music, but also sports. Also a decent bit of book talk, outdoorsy stuff, etc. Not FJM.

As a person of rather fair complexion, I love an overcast day for sports. Also, first baseball of the year!

I’ve never met a single person who is like “Hell yeah, the pregame music at this sporting event sounds like a robot orgy served at a volume that would make Metallica wince.” And yet this is the formula for every stadium in the United States no matter how big or small.

Andy Kennedy's frustration with lackluster play at home has boiled over into public comments. Will be interesting to see how this plays out for him.

This is so true.
I remember being a young adult and seeing a Stax documentary at some point and seeing him do the intro at the Wattstax concert from 1972 and just being blown away by him and couldn't imagine why he'd been painted in the way he had been when I was growing up. RIP Revered Jackson.

Been listening to a lot of Okkervil River lately. Will Sheff looks so much more hippie than his music sounds.

Would a Birminghamian or Atlantan like to join me to see Gianmarco Soresi at The Variety Playhouse on April 30? I think he's one of the funniest people going right now and I'm willing to drive to see him because I just don't think he's gonna be hitting my town any time soon (if at all.)

I'm going to an book signing tonight for Roddy Bottum's new book. Do I bring my 30+ year old Faith No More ticket stub for him to sign too or is that lame AF.

Since we're talking Tame Impala this morning, it's always a good time to drop Kevin Parker chiming in on a meme basically acknowledging that his life was wildly different with success.

A guy I know did these 6’ x 4’ animal portraits by shooting a .22 rifle through aluminum sheets. Definitely didn’t take any planning or obsessive attention to detail for prolonged amounts of time.

I keep seeing stories about the mountains of unsold World Cup tickets and then you log onto the site and it’s $2,050 per ticket for nosebleed seats to Haiti vs Morocco. Vultures.

Today is both Ice-T's and John McEnroe's birthday and somehow Ice-T is older (by a year.) McEnroe has seemed old forever. Maybe it's the cantankerousness.

Big shout out to the old guy with his wife in this hardware store that didn't point the stud finder she handed him at himself.

The ‘bel’ in ‘decibel’ is for Alexander Graham Bell.
Since the ‘B’ in 'dB' is a name-derived unit, it is capitalized when abbreviated.

Birmingham people are always asking me what's the fun stuff going on in town with relations to music, so I figured I might as well start hyping the stuff I love is worth your time/attention/$$$. Hopefully I'll maintain an enthusiasm for doing this, but here's my picks of the week for February 15-21:

Immediately deleted the Substack I setup yesterday after someone informed me they're monetizing hate group shit so I figured I'd just coast on my Medium page until I ultimately decide where I want to land. Was trying to embed some Bandcamp links and nothing was working so boo to that.

I was in Athens, GA solo on Valentine's Day last year to see Drive-By Truckers and had not considered the dining dilemma of the day. Knew I wouldn't be able to get in anywhere nice/cool, so I thought, "I'll go to Raising Cane's since we don't have those at home." Friends, there was a wait at Cane's.
Friends, I have some bad news. I think it’s going to be difficult for me to find a place to eat tonight that is not Burger King or Pizza Hut.
