I took my daughter to Courtney Barnett a couple months ago. She continues to impress me. She's remarkable live; amazing sound from a three-person band.

The Killers the other night were interesting. Better show than I would've thought, much more audience enthusiasm than I anticipated, and a stunning realisation that Brandon Flowers has adopted some remarkable Neil Diamond-like vocal stylings. I've never been enthusiastic about them but I've loved "All the Things that I've Done."

I went to see Johnny Marr, one of my favorite guitarists, open for them. He was lackluster, but he can still play. Going to see Echo and the Bunnymen Saturday--one of my favorite New Wave bands, who I never thought would tour again. Next month I'm driving to Albuquerque to see Thee Oh Sees because John Dwyer is an amazing guitarist and I'll probably never have another chance to see him. Then I'm taking Sheryl to see Scott Bradley's Post-Modern Jukebox in Grand Junction: modern hits, ragtime style. Some of their covers are truly inspired.

I think all the bands got broke during the pandemic.

It’s mind-numbing.

Thanks for the humorous, Light treasons. GB makes my tv-watching worthwhile.

Beautious concept after Time Tunnel Review of our past presidents.
