Oh, man. Kenny Rogers has left the building forever.
How long has he been around? Long enough I remember him singing "The Gambler" on the original Muppet Show.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Ann, that's a ferret.
He was one of the New Christy Minstrels back in the mid '60s. A long and highly varied career, once you factor in the First Edition.

If people are interested in kinda folk goth, The Amazing Devil released The Horror and the Wild on Spotify the other day. I've been listening to it a lot. The second track and Farewell Wanderlust especially.

I was coming here to post that Tim Burgess, the singer of The Charlatans, has been hosting twitter listening parties on twitter with members of the bands that have been pretty great. There was one tonight for Prefab Sprout's Steve McQueen with 3/4 of the band that was pretty joyous. There's a lot of great bands on the schedule, including some 80s classics Lloyd Cole, Billy Bragg, The Pogues, Style Council and The Cocteau Twins. (There's also a lot of Britpop I don't know.) Schedule is here: [link]

And now Ellis Marsalis has died. Fuck this disease, and fuck everyone who made it worse. I'm going to bed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is it weird that I've been thinking about Rachel Bloom a lot? I mean, she just had a baby this week! And now her friend died? That seems like too much to put together any week.
