Family man, food follower, everybody’s emcee. I made a book about Winfield’s Walnut Valley Festival.
Hey @meryanroe.bsky.social I’m a serious Muppet fan with a soft spot for MIS if you’re still making assignments. Also you should have @jessethorn.bsky.social on to discuss 2 minutes that feature funk / r&b. He’s a podcast legend and deeply knows that music. #movinrightalong
Honestly, we're barely thinking about that yet!

I will always be more interested in #originalmusic but the great thing about seeing a solid cover band is seeing people (predictably or surprisingly) go apesh*t over a song. The crowd at this all ages community “block party” lost it over a Green Day song.

I reject the notion that we aren’t as tough as previous generations. I literally just used a bayonet to open an Amazon package.

Hey Unca @deesnider.bsky.social I’m driving past Cheyenne WY with House of Hair on. Made me think of your family. Is your Cheyenne named after the town?

Hey @deesnider.bsky.social I’ll be at Swannanoa Gathering near Asheville for a week this summer getting my folk on. Wanna drop by to bring some rock to the party? (And seriously, if any of the grandkids is interested in guitar, Swannanoa Guitar Week is amazing.)

Hey Unca @deesnider.bsky.social - as a tribute to Marty Callner I rewatched TS: The Video Years. So fun to see the progression of your partnership. Questions: whose idea was using Bobcat in 2 videos? Also (and I know it wasn’t a Callner video) was it Joey Franco playing drums in the Hot Love video?

Just donated to the Veterans Garden LA project that we heard about from Susan Feniger on @gofactyourpod.bsky.social. It’s not only my favorite #podcast, it helps me do a little bit to support things other people love that I otherwise would not know about. (Also, Helen Hong is the funniest.)

After a lifetime of being known the world over by one name and legally by another, yesterday I officially changed my name to Dee F. Snider. You know what the “F” stands for, don’t you?

Just read the headline “Grateful Dead Announces 60-CD Unreleased Concert Set.” Genuinely did not know if this was satire or fact.

Since the 90s, I've referred to grunge as "the grunge scare" and I won't stop doing so until I'm dead. At which point, I will stop.

My town’s minor league baseball team scheduled me to sing the National Anthem based on my past performances, no re-audition required.
Apparently I am have achieved offer-only status 😏⚾️

So.
It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.
I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Hey @mjmckean.bsky.social what do you think of the new Nick Chandler and Deliverance version of “Never Did No Wanderin’?” I’m digging it more ever time @chrisjonesgrass.bsky.social plays it.

Just settled into seat for my flight. Ad came on my phone game making a loud roar. I scrambled, making sure I was muted, turning down volume, sure my seatmate already hated me, covering speaker with my hand, nothing worked.
It was the fan that the guy in front of me turned on.
