“Sunset Rodeo” - the first single from “A Month of Somedays” - the single and the album are currently in all the usual places. Felt like an appropriate calling card to introduce myself on Skylight!

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

I've come to the conclusion that MAGA Christianity is identical in spirit and execution to a Vegan Pig Roast

It’s 25 degrees in Kansas City where the Chiefs and Texans are playing for a full stadium. Guess it’s only dangerous when it’s an inauguration.

This is the battle I’ve been given. I’ve been fighting going on 3 years & it’s kicking my skinny butt.

If you can lend a hand, it would be most appreciated. I update it often & those updates go back years. My warmest thanks for your time.

these new few days, take deep breaths. take long walks. take lengthy, considered looks around you & file it all away.

remember these last few days before it all goes to shit.

crazy as it is now, what's coming will have you longing for what you have in these last few hours before it hits the fan.

say goodbye to all of this, because the roller coaster starts down the other side in less than two weeks.
JUST IN: The U.S. added 256,000 jobs in December, surpassing expectations and bringing the total for 2024 to 2.2 million. The unemployment rate dipped to 4.1%, and wages grew 3.9% over the past year, far outpacing inflation.

A serious constitutional crisis is taking place in North Carolina where Republicans are trying to steal a state Supreme Court election by disenfranchising 60,000 voters AFTER the count and recount have showed the Democrat won.

Please watch and share.

today's offering for BandCamp Friday is a "pay what you want" special live recording of acoustic versions of my latest album, "A Month of Somedays" - if you're up for checking out the rest of the catalog, I'm ok with that, as well. :)

today’s epiphany:

we’re never going to reach the “actually, we don’t need another remix/interpolation/cover version of Drift Away, thank you” level of consciousness…

…it’s just not in the cards, apparently.

Hey, Documentary Gods?

You listening?

Cool.

Hey, just so you know, Tom Scholz is still here and probably happy to dish about those first two Boston albums.

Great talk. Think about it.

so there's a video link in the lower left hand corner, but apparently there's a 50MB file size limit...so I guess we're just sharing YouTube links, then?

OK, fair enough.

I've been lax in committing to this platform, but looking to change that ASAP - starting tonight. gonna start by posting stuff that's exclusive to this platform, like this photo from the Chocolate Church in Bath, ME with Craig Bickhardt and Jonathan Edwards (me far right) from yeeeeears ago. :)

glad to be here… And hoping that maybe this is the one to finally drive the steak into the heart of you-know-who… So weary of the dumpster fire over there.

Will be poking around, looking for friends from elsewhere for a couple days… Let’s give this thing a fair shot!
