Daddy? What are we listening to?

New Years '96.

I thought we just listened to that?

No. We just finished New Years '95...

...there's someone in my head, but it's not me...

I for one am not at all worried that the most powerful people on earth have optimized my society and my brain to be ultra-reliant on the misery machine we keep in our pockets.

At a VERY 'country music only' establishment.

About to spend the best $10 of my year... #music #phish

Good.
Place.
To.
Get some thinking done.

A few somethings. Some of my somethings are worse than other people's somethings...some are not as bad.

Always think about other peple's somethings...

Henry Rollins remembers his friend Ozzy Osbourne YouTube video by CNN

Henry on CNN is just...I mean, it's weird. But if anyone "got" Ozzy, it was him. A solid conversation (starts around the 4 minute mark), and I really love his comment that #ozzyosbourne was "A wild guy who meant no harm." #ozzy #music #musicsky #henryrollins

Ear Fuel #40: Ozzy Osbourne Yesterday afternoon, word broke that Ozzy Osbourne passed away.

With the passing of #ozzyosbourne yesterday, I took some time to write about his half-century as a cultural icon, as well as 4 of my favorite, somewhat lesser known tracks from the #BlackSabbath catalog. #ozzy #music #musicsky

Henry Rollins has been preaching the truth for decades. #blacksabbath #ozzy #ozzyosbourne

Ozzy Osbourne, pioneering heavy metal singer and Black Sabbath frontman, dies at 76 Word of Osbourne’s demise came weeks after the ailing front man reunited with his original Black Sabbath bandmates.

The absolute best. It's impossible to comprehend the past half-century of rock without #OzzyOsbourne

Ride easy, #Ozzy.

Live Aid - 40th Anniversary (PART 6) YouTube video by Live Aid

The entirety of the original LiveAid is currently being uploaded to YouTube with soundboard audio and the TV feed for video. So many incredible performances, but most people are probably just looking for Part 6 (Queen, Bowie, etc): www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouqo...

#music #liveaid #musicsky

Many of those records are still in steady rotation for me. Your efforts made the ears and lives of SO many people MUCH better.

"Bouncin'" (A Live One)

"Stormy Monday" (Fillmore East)

"On The Way Home" (Massey Hall '71)

Surprising music selection at this restaurant. Just did studio "Operator" -> "Shakedown Street" -> "Fee"

New shirt day. #ThePhishFromVermont #music #musicsky

we like Page's new shirt...it's so nice...

Custom playlist of over 800 songs, and my iPod (yes, I still use my iPod Classic) delivers me Nirvana's cover of "The Man Who Sold The World" followed by......the Bowie original. #music #nowplaying

I, for one, am tired of [gestures broadly]. I have grown weary of [points in all directions simultaneously].

‘I don’t want to die in a hotel room somewhere’: Black Sabbath on reconciling for their final gig – and how Ozzy is living through hell Heavy metal’s godfathers are preparing a star-studded farewell – but will Ozzy Osbourne, after ‘horrendous’ surgery, be well enough to perform? In their first interview for two decades, the original l...

This is really rough to read. Ozzy is clearly in a lot of pain and suffering. He deserves dignity and retirement...not being trotted out so Sharon can buy another face for herself. #music #blacksabbath #ozzy

Maybe go on podcasts to discuss your love of Bauhaus, punk, etc and work in how that influences Storytime

It's about peeling off a handful of listeners in tangentially related podcasts.

It's the most difficult (and often annoying) part of podcasting, as there is no singular path to follow.

Along with being a content creator, I spent time heading podcast creator operations at Spotify.

Cross-promo can't be overstated. Try getting mentions/appearances on a pod about literature, but one that isn't sci-fi focused. Maybe be on a pod about VO work, and discuss how it led you to Storytime

Ear Fuel #34: How Rock Hall Inductees Are Chosen & Two Massive Snubs With yesterday’s announcement of this year’s inductees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, so began the annual fury and frustration of a large swath of music-loving interneters.

With last night’s announcement of one of the stronger #rockhall induction classes in recent memory, I dig into how acts are chosen for the honor, and discuss two long-standing, massive snubs. #musicsky #music
