I’ve been slacking on my Pekingese duties. Here’s the lady of the house. She has really come a long way from being rescued. She used to have these deep dark tear stains along the folds of her eyes. Now, she can smile without the tears.

Got our first cold blast of air this evening and it made me think of our balmy fall days in October. Rock Island State Park.

LEGEND! I can honestly say this is one of the greatest musical artists and performance I’ve seen in my lifetime. Johnny Marr in Nashville at the Brooklyn Bowl on a Sunday night was a religious experience for any Alt/Goth/120Minutes fans.

8/29/2025 6:22AM Radnor State Park, Nashville, TN I was hoping for a sense of serenity with the park opening at 6AM, but there was already some very yappy people too involved in their discussions to appreciate the break of daylight or forest sounds.

On this day July 31st, 1997, I saw the 1997 #Lollapalooza lineup in Nashville, Tn at the Starwood Amphitheater. The lineup included #Failure, Julian/Damian Marley, Snoop Dog, #James, #Tricky, #Tool and #Prodigy. It was definitely a spacey lineup and was the last Lolla concert for a long time.

Last night’s presentation by @therealjoebob123.bsky.social
titled “How Rednecks Saved Hollywood” was brilliant! A legit historical fact based 3hr show about the evolution of the redneck around religion and immigration. Then how the redneck was seen in the media. Thanks, Joe Bob and Darcy #mutantfam

#Nashville #NoKings We’re here because we have friends afraid of being kidnapped and deported. We have a neighbors on fixed income and can’t afford cuts to Medicare. And most importantly we hate bullies. It’s the only hate that should be tolerated.

27 years ago today on May 23rd, 1998 I took this picture of #bjork on her Homogenic Tour at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. The ticket cost $25.50. Amazing show and songs from that album ... "Bachelorette", "Alarm Call" and especially my fave "All is Full of Love." Def check out that video.

Happy 37th “Birthday” to one of my favorite albums. When this was released and the lead single “Birthday” hit the MTV airwaves it opened the world to Iceland and this collective of artists, which included Bjork. My fave single is still “Deus.” Is that longbox bringing back any memories for anyone?

My view from work last week. Nothing better than leaving the big city for a remote cabin during bitterly cold weather. Peaceful.

To keep balance and my own sanity, I will post something to offset the nastiness of the US political climate. Today I give you Chewie the pekingese. Chewie walked over the🌈 this past February. We miss him everyday. RIP ChewieBear! #pekingese

For my first music related post I thought I’d post something from the last concert I attended. Asheville, NC @idlesband.bsky.social “I’m Scum.” 2x seeing them. Brilliant band. From the beginning every album is powerful growth. Friendliest Inclusive crowd at venue Rabbit Rabbit. Beautiful Fun.
