I have Herbie Hancock's "Headhunters" album cover as my iPhone wallpaper. When I used my phone to pay for groceries recently, the young cashier exclaimed "Cool! Herbie Hancock." When I asked if he knew the album, he replied his GRANDMOTHER used to listen to it. Womp womp.

I played guitar on Sting's "Nothing Like The Sun" World Tour (1988). He and I were having breakfast in Sydney when a Muzak version of "Every Breath You Take" started dripping from the hotel sound system. He just looked up at the ceiling and smiled. Ka-ching! (P.S. - read my book!)

These posts from Senators always feel like a policeman is pulling me aside and telling me a crime is being committed. WTF? I don't have a badge - YOU DO!
