I am totally against Govt waste but I would be totally behind the next President to come in and tear down his new ballroom like he is doing to our country

I honestly thought I would be dead before I agreed with anything MTG would say.

I feel like I'm in Bizzaro world.

Listening to RFK Jr talk about health and science today confirms he is a fucking moron. I really don’t want my health decisions made by a guy that shot heroin for 12yrs unless it’s this guy.

It's amazing how the only place really covering the news anymore is South Park....

Undocumented immigrants paid over $92B in taxes last year.
Churches paid $0 in taxes last year.

Who is the bigger problem to America?

Getting harder to look at my phone as it seems each and every day another one of my musical heroes passes away. Some I've been lucky enough to call friends, some I've met, but all were a building block in my journey. R.I.P. Brian Wilson, I think they broke the mold when they made you

Man another legend gone, Sly Stone was unique in so many ways. Listening to Sly And The Family Stone took me places other bands could never reach. R.I.P. Sly

Sparks played in Cleveland and Akron in 75 but I don't know anything about INXS back then.

I was thinking that if Elon wants a big F.U. moment he should go ahead and hire every taco truck in America and have them come to D.C. on June 14th for Thump's parade and have people dressed as chickens hand out free taco's to everyone there.

That would be the ultimate mike drop!

Wanted to come on here and wish everyone to have a great Memorial Day and to please take a moment to remember those who gave their sacrifice for us and our country, but someone beat me to it......J.F.C. what a completely deranged asshole

Happy Sunday everyone, keep it loose and the vibes flowing. Poster Of The Day is from 51yrs ago when the Eagles played at Ohio State. This was right before One Of These Nights released. I think I saw them 5 times on this tour when I worked the shows. This was the Eagles I really liked #OhioState

Poster Of The Day is from 55yrs ago, the Piper Rock Festival happened. Originally in Akron after over 10,000 tickets were sold the city got a restraining order to stop the show. Promoters moved to Newton Falls OH and didn't announce where it was until the day before worried it would be stopped again

I know I've been around much, hard to do social media or the news in these trying days. It just gets depressing.

Poster Of The Day is from 50yrs ago today when Fleetwood Mac played at the Akron Civic Theatre in Akron Ohio. I think this was the first time I saw this version of Mac, didn't disappoint

Poster Of The Day is from today. It is the poster I did for the Kent State May 4th concert happening tonight to remember what went on 55yrs ago today on the campus. With everything that is going on around us now let's make sure to not forget our past.

Poster of the Day from the old studio is from 51yrs ago today when Steely Dan played at the Allen Theatre in Cleveland with Montrose opening. This was the last time I saw Steely Dan until 35yrs later when I saw them at E.J. Thomas Hall in Akron with my daughter. SD has always been a favorite of mine

Poster of the Day from the old studio is from 49yrs ago today when Artful Dodger played at Chanel HS in Bedford OH, a suburb of Cleveland. This was when bands still played in HS and College gyms. You couldn't turn your radio on in 1976 without hearing their song "Scream" being played

Poster of the Day from the old studio is from 51yrs ago today when Suzi Quatro just blew the roof off the Allen Theatre in Cleveland. I've always liked Suzi and I think "48 Crash" is one of the best driven rock songs from that era, especially hearing it live.

Poster Of The Day from the old studio is from 35yrs ago when Eric Clapton played at the old Richfield Coliseum. Say what you want about EC but for me he has been the soundtrack of my life from the Bluesbreakers to Cream to Blind Faith to D&B to Derek thru his solo work It's a rare day I don't listen

Poster of the Day from the old studio is actually one of my favorites. It used to hang over my desk at the studio and even now is hangs in my house. 43yrs ago today Rickie Lee Jones played at Music Hall in Cleveland. Don't know why but of the thousands of posters I can choose from, this one is it

Poster Of The Day has it's own backstory. 50yrs ago today Golden Earring played at the Allen Theatre in Cleveland. For some reason we used the old publicity image we had laying around and the poster got rejected "We can't put that around town" so we sold off the prints to record stores to sell.

Been awhile folks but here is the Poster Of The Day from the old studio and it comes to us 50yrs ago today when Alice Cooper played at the old Richfield Coliseum outside Akron. This was one of the best AC shows I ever saw and especially with Suzi Quatro opening, man I loved her.

Pete Hegseth is just like me after 3 or 4 heavy pours of Blantons then getting on Bluesky to chat except I'm not the Defense Secretary Of The United States!

Poster Of The Day from the old studio is from 1979 when on this date The Police made their 1st appearance in Northeast Ohio when they played the Painesville Agora. This was a little club that held I think about 1000 people. Great show with The Romantics opening. #Cleveland #ThePolice #ClassicRock
