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.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Have you seen/heard "Christmas Truce" by Sabaton?
Powerful stuff. I teared up.
Be sure to listen through the credits.

Things I saw today:
1. An actual, non-metaphorical DeadHead sticker on an actual, non-metaphorical Cadillac.
2. Debbie does Dallas, the Original Cast Recording.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Mighty Mighty Bosstones just broke up. Seems Dicky Barrett is an anti-vaxer and that's what did them in. After 40 damn years.
Bad week for Trudy's bombastic musical tastes and COVID insanity I'll tell you what.
An old joke is bouncing around again in honor of the occasion:
"What's the difference between a bull and the Mighty Mighty Bosstones?"
A bull has its horns in the front and its asshole in the back.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Oh, yes, I saw that about Lanegan, and that prompted me to do some nostalgia listening. While watching "No One Knows" [link] I noticed this gem in the comments:
Legend goes that if you say "f—, I need a drummer" in the bathroom mirror at night, 3 times, Dave Grohl shows up to play in your band.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
The hovertext on that comic is so true...
