Fuck you
TBH I've not listened to Filthy lucre live
but the band was super tight in 2003, so can only imagine they were doing a good job in 96
the live shows from the 70s are unlistenable and only for completists
Would have been fun as hell to be there

so just remember a story I often pass along

the Filthy Lucre tour stop in Detroit was at Cobo Arena which is attached to Cobo Hall the downtown convention center... anyways, on the same night as the Pistols, there was a square dance convention in progress.  so just imagine the sight of a bunch of brightly colored square dancers  and a bunch of suburban punks walking through the area... it was a sight to behold.

Bob Dylan - Self Portrait


There are plenty of Dylan albums I like far less...never understood the criticism this gets


Finally found a copy with 360 red labels (one of the last as this came out June 1970..only the Terre Haute pressing plant used a few of these labels initially for this record) ..been looking for over 15 years...was beginning to think it didn’t exist

It did set me back $65 which is kind of insane but it was one of my white whales

new Phoenix: https://lnk.to/PhoenixIdentical

looks like they did the sountrack to Sophia Cappola's new movie (she's married to Thomas Mars), so i imagine that will be released at some point...

Van Halen - Diver Down

To me VH may be the sound of 9th/10th grade...it’s not what I listened to most but they were the most popular band at my school with many of the guys ....everyone wanted to be Eddie..The MTV videos....and it really takes me back to a place and point in time...of course at this same period VH gets rid of Diamond Dave and Eddie gets obsessed with synths and Hagar joins and brings in a different vibe..too many sappy live songs...In retrospect I don’t blame Sammy



Diver Down gets shit cause it’s short and has covers but I love it..

Didn’t realize Eddie and Alex’s dad Jan plays the clarinet on Big Bad Bill

It’s such a fun album!

Van Halen really had it going on during the David Lee Roth period

*too many sappy love songs


I kind of regret not going to any of the VH reunion shows but the way they froze out Michael Anthony just pissed me off and knowing all the hatred between Eddie/Alex and DLR just ruined the vibe...I mean I wait decades for the reunion and then they freeze out Mike? It was so lame

I know I would have had fun seeing them though..how could you not?
