I dunno... Bill told me to?

Thanks, pal!

What a night! That's the way to do it, boys.

Scott The Hoople (@scottthehoople) It’s Sunday, day after No King’s and a couple days before the Tweedy family band hit town. A week of seeing rock and roll ahead (Nick Lowe and possibly more…), followed by two weeks of non-stop Young...

Strumming songs solo from the new Young Fresh Fellows album... here's one! substack.com/profile/5925...

Scott The Hoople (@scottthehoople819330) I’ve been avoiding doing Substack for a long time now. While I truly enjoy the few that I subscribe to, I always felt like it would just be another promotional thing that I’d HAVE to do — and that I ...

I just wrote my first note on Substack. What the hell! substack.com/profile/5925...

I'm totally stoked, as well as being nervous as hell, to be included in this line-up. But having been many times, I know that it's a feel-good situation, start-to-finish.

I can do it

I've really re-upped my (never-gone) appreciation for Todd recently. Re-reading @paulmyers00.bsky.social book on him, and pretty much listening to The Ballad Of Todd every morning for weeks. The craziness of Wizard, the Utopia years, The Healing... there's so much and he's still amazingly unique.

Thanks for spreading the word. I'm looking forward to hearing it myself. It's actually been a while!

This kills me, Annie. So sad. But it seems her spark is still there for you.

No matter how many times I hear this song (a couple thousand?) it stops me in my tracks and I just wonder, what did the world do to deserve something this incredibly weird and beautiful?

NEIL IV: The Horse Lives On, by Scott The Hoople 2 track album

Happy 80th birthday to @neilyoungarchives.bsky.social !! I've recorded a couple new Neil-dedicated songs for the occasion.

It's a wonderful book.

I am so thankful for @tcmtv.bsky.social!! Today I'm especially moved by their not-so-subtle programming of anti-fascist WWII movies. Touché!

That show was so excellent! Cool pix!

Right? And The Minus 5 did cover "Wicked Annabella" on a 45 in Spain many years ago...

It seems like Jason MUST be in The Minus 5 already, but perhaps not! Let's do something about that soon.

Q&A: Scott McCaughey on pulling a doubleheader with The Baseball Project, The Minus 5 Somewhere in Europe, there exists live footage of an unreleased song about Roberto Clemente, penned by R.E.M. bassist Mike Mills. The Baseball Project — a music supergroup now comprised of R.E.M...

Talkin @pirates here! Tonight with @the baseballproject
at MrSmalls.com — I’m told it’s a cool venue. Pittsburgh is a beautiful city.

Rock n roll hijinks galore! If they could all be that great. Some might say that they are… but yes, top rank!

Had another excellent conversation with @caropopcast.bsky.social the other evening. We’ll see you, Mark, @thaliahallchicago.bsky.social tonight!

That’s really funny! And cool.

I still hate that my ‘mishap’ derailed that tour. Both bands were quite simply ON FIRE.

You know it! She doesn’t crack!

Pleasure! Show was great — amazing venue

I’ll join my buddy #ThreeChordMonte on @wfmu.bsky.social for a rollicking palaverfest at 1 pm eastern today! There will be music too. WFMU.org

I'm told by those who've listened that this is a really good episode of a really good podcast. It might be too much of me to revisit myself. As Pee Wee Herman once said so poignantly: "I lived it."

Yes I suppose so!

Tonight we’ll sing songs of heartbreak and victory. Many about the sport. Others about death and rock n roll. All the usual stuff, smothered in Tabasco.

Fist bumps are the new selfies. We wish!
