I can’t believe my wife and my bro convinced me to fly Air Canada.

Congrats to Jasmin Paris (first female finisher) and Ihor Verys (first Ukrainian-Canadian finisher) at the Barkley Marathons!
I have not had that much fun refreshing Twitter since the early days of TBT.
Do you file/organize Classical albums by the composer or conductor?
Record Organization Q: Toots & The Maytals...file under T (for Toots) or under H (for Hibbert)? I normally file by last name, but the group doesn't use his last name.
8.5 minutes into filleting fish is a bad time to realize your version of Music from Big Pink is 45 RPM.
RIP Robbie Robertson
Awesome doc about the great Canadian band, Spirit of the West, and their lead singer's fight with Alzheimer's:
Thought about tickets for Beyoncé, but...$2000 for B-Hive, $1200 for floor tickets, $500 for lower bowl, $200 for nosebleeds? Uhh...how do people afford to go to concerts regularly nowadays?
Has anyone ever tried to inventory their CDs in Discogs? Did you create/use a different account than your standard vinyl one?
Seems a little "sky is falling", but do folks think mid-sized tours will become less prevalent as they become less financially viable for artists? I mean if Animal Collective can't make a tour work, one would think it's even harder for less well known acts.
I hate moral conundrums. Like…whether to go to my first concert in 2+ years, or show support for my union siblings and not cross a picket line at the venue. Ugh.
So we get Monday, Sept 19th off for the passing of the Queen, the symbol of colonialism.
And then we also get Sept. 30th off for Truth and Reconciliation Day to reflect on the negative impacts of colonialism?
Not complaining about days off, but that's a weird juxtaposition.
Need to expand my running playlist from 5 to 10 hours. Please give me all your favourite workout songs.

Daughter: How do you get them all with like 2 notes? That’s ridiculous.
Me:
Imagine if I used my brain for something positive?
Daughter: But alas, you like music instead.
Me:
(I will now be up all night contemplating all the different things I could’ve learned instead of music trivia.)
Listening to Kelly Joe Phelps’ Roll Away the Stone with the sun shining in is a great way to start the weekend. Was sad to hear he passed this week; if you like acoustic blues, definitely go back and check out his discography.
C'mon @Mather, even Steve Jones likes Steely Dan.
Steve Jones doesn't like the Sex Pistols' music anymore: "I'd rather listen to Steely Dan"
The punk legend is currently promoting Pistol, the new FX limited series about his band.

Thought my teenage daughter was listening to Death Cab for Cutie this morning. Nope. Charlie Hickey. Who sounds an awful lot like young Ben Gibbard. Wonder if we can get Chris Walla to produce Hickey's next album.
Just got tickets for Sunny Day Real Estate in Seattle!
Edit: Haven't Used Ticketmaster in a while, was actually easier than I remember. Got Main Floor, Centre. Towards the back, but not too bad.
Taxes filed! Return incoming…Upgrade my mountain bike or upgrade my speakers?
FFS. Suddenly have a week off to listen to records as I tested positive for Covid. Feel great, ran 19km yesterday. Please send thoughts, prayers, and jazz records.
That feeling of dread when you get the Amazon parcel delivery notification photo and see your vinyl is wrapped in a plastic bag on your doorstep instead of a Cardboard mailer. -
