On November 13th, Donald Trump was asked to remove himself from his place of residence. That request came from basically everyone except Fox News, billionaires, and assholes who peaked in high school.

Whenever I’m knee deep in a book project I dig out this selfie from May 2017, where I’m sitting on our back deck in Bed-Stuy, drinking a Modelo and plugging away on the Rock and Roll Explorer Guide to New York City manuscript.

Resident Punk’s pub date is September 15, 2026. Much more soon.

I’ve got an actual ticket stub from my first Charlatans show in a box somewhere, but this is much nicer.

Listening to the Damned because Halloween. Shut up, it is not a flimsy premise.

Blur played Madison Square Garden on October 23, 2015. My son Ian and I were lucky enough to get in for soundcheck, and then Ian was among a small group of fans who got to join the band onstage for “Parklife.”

I was just 10 years old and in the wrong part of New Jersey and on the wrong side of the Hudson River when Talking Heads played the pair of shows on sides three and four of The Name of This Band Is…in 1980. And for all that, plus the undelivered promise of time-machine technology, I am bummed out.

What I love about Stereolab is no matter how much music they’ve released - and it’s an awful fucking lot - the album I like best is the one I happen to be listening to at that moment. This moment is for Dots & Loops.

Music for whatever night it is, I’m pretty tired.

🎂 I share my birthday with Groucho Marx, Graham Greene, Bud Abbott, Annie Leibovitz, Richard Hell, Sting, Rex Reed, Tiffany, and Phil Oakey. I was born exactly one-hundred years after Mahatma Gandhi, and on the same exact day as Damon Gough, a.k.a., Badly Drawn Boy. Happy Birthday to us.🎂
