Been goin' hard at shows btwn Blucifer's First Rodeo + last few days while darling was outta town. Saw amazing bands play, had one of our best shows this year, but now time to settle down & chill for couple weeks. Haven't played this album at home in years. Pussy - Plays. #nowplaying #VinylEveryday
Can one make a decent breakfast burrito using uncured capoccolo? Yes, one can, indeed. #breakfast
BREAKING: The band from the Humira commercial has declined an invitation to perform at Freedom 250.
Well, I filled up once for $144 and change in a rented Jeep Wagoneer L. But that was at a Costco with cheapest gas around. As thia photo shows, it could have been *much* worse.
If Opta predictions come correct, as of today, #BHAFC is going to Europe, w00t!
Diving into my first volume of Italo Calvino's work (thanks to all the references thereto in Helen DeWitt's "Your Name Here"). Please send a search party if I don't escape the narrative strangeness within a week. #booksky #playingwithstructure #italocalvino
I pretty much never mention my band here, but we're touring in May. Wave Decay sez Viva SoCal! All leading up to Arroyo Secodelic in Highland Park on May 24th. #shoegaze #krautrock #psych in SLC, San Diego, Costa Mesa, Las Vegas, more!
Ma'am, you weren't home when the salesman dropped by. How may we contact you to enlighten your family about this wonderful addition to your home library?
Waiting on this reissue for so long that I can't stop playing it. The Tropics' "As Time's Gone", lucky to snag one of 333 copies. A tune rarely comped, and og nearly unobtanium in wild (only copy on discogs today near $600). Guaranteed to spin this nugget next time I spin #vinyl out in the wild.
What a loverly Valentine's Day dinner with my beloved. She took a recipe for Chilli Prawn Linguine with Mango & Ginger, substituted lobstah tail for prawns, added baby broccoli, used thick textured heart-shaped pasta. Soooo good. I made an Asian lime crema sort of dressing for the salad. #cooking
Tonight's retirement #cooking adventure, baked chicken thighs marinated in green goddess, baked broccoli with parm, drizzled with Meyer lemon oil, cous cous, and slaw. Dang that'll flat git it.
Got tired of trying to find an affordable copy of "Tirando Dedo" of 45, so fck it, bought a reish of the whole Los Shain's third album, Docena 3. Lotsa covers, of course, but these just sound...different. #nowplaying #vinyl #losshains #garagerock #psych
Been looking for this one #vinyl for *years*, finally arrived yesterday, and today is first spin on new AT-VM95ML stylus, so life pretty good, at least for this hour. Not to mention, allows me to remove multiple expensive 45s from my #Discogs wantlist... #psych #freakbeat
Tonight's retirement cooking adventure, my first ever attempt at spicy grilled #gochujang pork loin. Probably cooked the pork a bit too long, but not bad. To be served with brown rice and kimchi shortly...
Looks like a Manhattan, but is not. Little Italy (by Audrey Sanders): 2oz Rye (Balcones 100 proof, in this instance) .75oz Carpano Antica .5oz Cynar Stir over ice, serve up with a maraschino cherry #cocktailtime
Happy New Year, happy open inoculated beer! Temporal Schlep, from Primitive Beer. #beersky
The Wyld Gooms (s/t) - Their long-awaited debut full-length, a late entry just under the wire, for what may be the #garagepunk rekkid of the year. Feels like early Cynics meets '66 all over again. #Vinyl #VinylEveryday #VinylTuesday #VinylCollection #VinylJunkie #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #NowPlaying
Now look, we know bacon is supposed to be the ultimate cheat code but, c'mon! #gtfo
The Schizophonics - People In The Sky, one of most electrifying live bands I've ever been fortunate to witness on stage and even more fortunate to have opened for. Album goes so hard. #Vinyl #VinylEveryday #VinylSaturday #VinylCollection #VinylJunkie #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #NowPlaying #garagerock
As the word "Christmas" appears in The Snake Pit, technically, Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me counts as a Christmas album for purposes of music to spin while decorating. #Vinyl #VinylEveryday #VinylSaturday #NowPlaying #VinylCollection #VinylJunkie #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #thecure
A movie that takes place where you are from. (pretty much at the same time, also...)
I'm no prog dude and I'm hardly gonna start whistling ELP's "Lucky Man" as I stroll shop aisles, but this, Colosseum's Valentyne Suite, has blown my mind. Parts of Side 2 ("The Valentyne Suite") go so hard I've repeated it thrice in a row. #Vinyl #VinylEveryday #VinylThursday #NowPlaying #VinylSky
Listening session selections. No real thematic connection here. Black Market Brass, Those Shocking Shaking Days (comp of '70s Indo psych/funk), Funkadelic, Sonic Cathedral Roky Erickson tribute #Vinyl #VinylEveryday #VinylThursday #VinylCollection #VinylJunkie #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #NowPlaying
Today's listening session selections. When feeling funky, one can never go wrong with Lee Fields and Dyke & The Blazers. #Vinyl #VinylEveryday #VinylMonday #VinylCollection #VinylJunkie #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #NowPlaying #funk #soul
Tonight's retirement #cooking adventure - baked salmon with herbs, twice baked spaghetti squash with sundried tomatoes, jalapeño, onion and garlic (via Chef Buck on YT), salad, vinho rose. Cooking soundtracks by Selda Bağcan.
