Blogging rock, R+B, soul, funk and pop tunes from the '60s forward, mostly from my vinyl collection. ... But UNLIKELY to hype your new song or record. Peace.

    New blog post: There were hundreds of memorable shows at the Arena over its almost 61 years. I've lived in Green Bay for roughly half that time, and I have no explanation for why I saw only two shows there.

    I'd go see this. Billy Idol was excellent when I saw him ... wow ... 14 years ago in the big tent out at Oneida. Bryan Adams seems like a nice fit as co-headliner.

    When you hear the word swing, do you think of baseball or jazz? Duke Ellington (born this day 1899) and band members playing baseball in front of their segregated motel ("Astor Motel") while touring in Florida, 1955

    Remember those halcyon days when people thought Ozzy Osbourne was a messenger of Satan, and not just a working-class lout from the British Midlands who'd enjoyed the indulgences of fame a little too much?

    Joining my friend in helping out. Enjoyed seeing and at the in Green Bay four years ago. Be sure you see them at this summer.

    Asking for help is hard as fuck, but it is what it is. Some assholes stole our trailer last week and it was found empty by the police. We launched a GofundMe to help us get through this extremely fucked up time, and we will recover. Thank you for all the ❤️

    50 years ago this month, in April 1969, there was a double feature of sorts at the De Pere Theatre. "Yellow Submarine" got top billing. The second feature was "How I Won the War," a British comedy in which played Musketeer Gripweed.

    All the infighting over all these years is just sad. Certainly soured me on John Fogerty and to a certain extent soured me on the original Creedence.
