Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Had a MRI. I passed. (Apparently, I'm very good at laying very still.) They want me back to repeat the procedure on different equipment, so they can calibrate the equipment. 🙃 Kinda reminded me of a concert I saw where Pan Sonic played one long drone and manipulated the timbre so that different parts of audience members' bodies resonated. (The concert was a very visceral experience.)

LOL, most studios have since implemented non-smoking policies in the control room.

Could be worse, IG...

Condolences.

Happy birthday, Shelly! (party favour noise)

Queens of the Stone Age riff rizz with 2 drummers and a baritone guitar what an unusual formula, I love it. Originally discovered them through this clip:

Nice. I just waxing poetic about that first concert feeling.

Since I couldn't go on their FIRST NORTH AMERICAN TOUR, this:

New Halou! Brutalism for Lovers Bandcamp link

The first band that I saw after lockdown -- actually saw in person, that is, I watched a lot of streamed performances -- was Zombi (yes, named after that great soundtrack). They did a pivot recently, into the world of yacht rock covers: https://zombi.bandcamp.com/album/zombi-friends-volume-1 Highly recommended

I love Charles Bradley! One of the many great finds from Daptone Records.

Speaking of long walks, maybe I should have posted this here: It's worth the payoff, trust me. Okay, maybe not, I am, after all, my own favourite comedian. Inspired by a serious comment to a funny post on LinkedIn.

🧇?
