Hope to see some Friends of Bob this Tuesday 5.20 - Free show at AMH - 40 artists doing 40 Bob songs, Including @thenogoodcrowd.bsky.social playing around 8:30. I’ll be there 12-string Rickenbacker in hand or my name isn’t McGuinn.

Sad news from MN today with my heart going out to all in the #millcitysound family. Mill City is my favorite record store and it starts with Rob Sheeley, his love for the music, people that worked and shopped there. He will be greatly missed and live in our hearts (and album collections) forever.

Thank you #DavidLynch - spending tonight Re-watching the Twin Peaks TV series for the first time in nearly 35 years and loving it as it comes flooding back into my brain, remembering how cool and trippy it was to see this on network TV in 1990.

Filling in for Kristen on the @wxpnfm.bsky.social morning show today with birthday boy Bob Bumbera! And since today is the day after our Philly Loves Bowie hero David’s bday, it’s kinda The Next Day - Bob’s bday. So let’s celebrate The Bob today! We’ll do so musically with more Bowie!

It’s a Christmas Eve miracle - a little a bit of snow hitting Philly this morning while @djrobertdrake.bsky.social performs his own annual miracle - The Night Before - a 24-hour DJ marathon on @wxpnfm.bsky.social #XPNtnb

Interesting Back to Black at #9 finished higher than Rehab (#14) which was the biggest radio hit off Amy’s album. But given the tragedy of her too short life, not surprising BtB resonates more now. Lucky to have seen her in a small SXSW gig before she went mega. Such a tragic loss. #xpncountdown

Favorite song by The Killers, inspired by my pal Matt Pinfield, who was trying to sign them to Columbia (they went with Island, but wrote this after their dinner together). Pic from show in Camden last year - glad it scored well on #xpncountdown - coming in #63. Got soul, but I ain’t a soldier.

We are all United In Bob (or at least his longest song). I was going to post a photo of Mike V asleep at the mixing board while it played yesterday but he woke up before I could snap it (jk!)

Fun piece from @emilybloch.com in Inky about Spotify Wrapped (Sidebar: have I mentioned again lately how Spotify is The Devil? Just checking) and a great side app How Bad Is Your Spotify that will eviscerate your taste in snark - here’s my spot-on profile:

I love train stations. They are a moment I can pretend I live in Europe. This is 30th Street Station in Philly. We are taking my German mother-in-law Helma to NYC to see an art exhibition at The Shed called Luna Luna to celebrate her Bday, then eat at a French Bistro in Chelsea. #ResistThruArt
