Five years ago today, Rivers Cuomo launched the initial version of his demo store at Riverscuomo.com.

At first, Rivers put up about 500 songs, for sale to one user each (I managed to snag 28 tunes). But a week later, he changed the store to sell bundles centered around each album (or era)...

Lights are on. Does this mean I get to take a handful of mulch?

I'm a very big fan of Rivers Cuomo's newest name for his discord server.

I love George Lucas, but this whole 'Palpatine doesn't understand why love would be an effective lie,' well...

Fox News Anchor Voice: I’m receiving word we are seeing gruesome footage of the war zones of terror that exist inside our cities. Viewers beware, this is some scary radical left gore.

My kid's pet axolotl (Charlie) got a mention in the school newspaper.

The blurb also mentions that I spoil Charlie by feeding him too much.

My earlier comment about bad movie theater experiences reminded me I had a George Costanza moment in a theater once.

Summer 1999, down the Jersey Shore. Was in this old theater. During the previews, the projector kept breaking.

Trailer for The Story of Us comes on. I had never seen it before...

#RiversDemoFlood 1677: Little Bag

December 1991

From Pre-Weezer

One of my kids has a doctor who always carries a little bag with him. So they and I call him Doctor Little Bag, after this song.

Anyway, Rivers wrote this song while conceptualizing the type of music...
