Weird that when I show up for my physical, the song playing at the doctor's office is "Physical."

Some of the youth have found shoegaze, and I'm here for it. Wisp's current tour finished in KC last night at a sold-out recordBar, with more than a few minors out late (for a school night), dragging along a parent. The kids are alright.

I was feeling meh, as tends to happen, but Shonen Knife at the recordBar made me happy for a while. It had been 7 years since their last KC show, but I last saw them on Christmas Eve 2022 in Tokyo.

Can't believe I'm not seeing the Jayhawks tonight, but (1) Grinders, (2) expensive, and (3) they're sandwiched between two bands I don't care about. Three strikes, guess I'm out.

I first saw the Wedding Present on March 8, 1991, at 7th St Entry in Minneapolis. Their most recent album was Bizarro, and I loved it. Somehow it's 34 years later, and I went back to MN yesterday for the Bizarro 35th Anniversary tour. The current lineup was fantastic! An epic show.

Harrison Ruffin Tyler was just three generations from the White House, since his father and grandfather both fathered children in their 70s. The chemical engineer helped preserve his family's legacy.

I used several songs by Austin's Gentlemen Rogues on last year's monthly playlists, but tonight was the first time I've seen them bash it out live.

THIS. There is absolutely no justification for Medicaid and SNAP cuts. NONE.
Massively cutting Medicaid and SNAP isn’t the only way to find savings. We could just forgo tax cuts for Americans making over $500K instead.

My first exposure to KC's own Means Motive won't be my last. Melodic indie rock for the win.
