The triumphant (?) return of BEQ

Never mind the bollocks!

Stay tuned for the sequel, Captain Beefheart and the Trout Mask Replica

Well, you’re half right.

Also, my wife and I had the same reaction to David Bowie introducing Devo in ‘77 - like, no one should be that cool, it’s not fair he got all the cool.

I’ve been a hardcore Devo fan since I was in college in the late ‘90s, and I’m loving the doc even though the stories are familiar. The most electrifying performance was the brief clip of the Ramones at CBGB - eliciting an audible “whoa” from me.

I mean, they don’t make pretty mid Disney World rides out of just anything, right?

Who, me? Angry? Why I never!

The New York State Library makes the cover image!

Oof. As a 24 year veteran higher education staff member, it pains me to like this post, but yeah, it’s not wrong.

The recent passing of Ozzy Osbourne has reminded me of a song by an artist I haven’t thought about in years. It’s “Ozzy Made Me Do It” by Rochester based ‘90s anti-folk act Powered By Satan. If only I hadn’t gotten rid of the cassette I had that song on. If only I could still play a cassette.

It was near a light rail stop is all I remember! Also that the food was great.

The Only Living Jeremy in New York

The first Ethiopian restaurant I ever ate at was in NYC, but the best Ethiopian restaurant I ever ate at was in St. Paul (and I don’t remember the name of either!)

Computer love

No we’re not!

50 is 50 today. Wheels within wheels…

My kids watched this movie and yeah, it goes dark.

Back in my day, they called this vaguebooking!

Aw, but won’t I miss using my janky Amazon Fire TV Recast to record off a digital antenna broadcast? It mostly works!

😕 We love these podcasts in my household

Existential dread will play well in Albany

Who actually believes this insanity?

Please be Godzilla please be Godzilla

I very much enjoy the weekly left field cryptic as well.

This is a strong recommendation, so I think I’ll start solving the Sunday WaPo puzzles!

Fancy drinks with Cathy at Strangebird to celebrate our 15th anniversary! (what?)
