    Golf?

    My golf trip for this weekend looks fukt. We booked an Airbnb a couple months ago which is non-refundable, so we're driving south 5+ hours to not golf, which sucks. "Once in a lifetime flooding" is the forecast for the area we are headed. I think we learned our lesson; the spring trip is too...

    Day 2 - It's International Guitar Month. Spin an album that includes a favorite guitarist(s) and if so inclined, tell us why they're a favorite. Coupla legends... King Crimson - Three of a Perfect Pair. Belew and Fripp are both kings of great tone and creativity.

    Day 1 – Spin any artist’s / band’s debut record I tend to lean into The Cars debut as my favorite first record ever, but man, this record is hard to top. Thanks @threesunrises for running April. And, hey, your first ever! Cheers! John Prine - S/T

    Day 31: Fare Thee Well, June 2015, Levi’s Stadium – This set of shows in Santa Clara and Chicago was last time the “Core Four” of the Grateful dead played together. As we bid goodbye to March and this challenge, play something that references a goodbye or farewell. I saw Sir Elton in 2022 at...

    Day 30: Liam Gallagher / Mary Wallopers, July 2024, Thomond Park Ireland – Liams show happened to coincide with an already planned trip to Ireland, the tour was focused on the 30th anniversary of Definitely Maybe.

    Day 29: Fiona Apple September 2017, Ohana Festival – Was a surprise to see Fiona on the lineup at all, and she really hasn’t done many shows since then. Play something by an artist who focuses more on music than touring. I'd love to see him live, haven't had the chance.

    Book 9 - 33 1/3 - Horses by Philip Shaw Not bad, a bit dry I guess. I'll refer to it on my next full listen to Horses to see if I'm picking up what he's laying down.

    Day 26: Pearl Jam / Sonic Youth July 2006, Viejas Arena – This particular show was memorable for a number of reasons, getting Sonic Youth as an opener was a big one. PJ played the Mother Love Bone track Crown Of Thorns and the rarely played Satan’s Bed, but the high point for me was the...

    Day 25: Steve Burns / Starlight Mints July 2004, The Casbah – Steve Burns (of Blues Clues fame) released an excellent album with Steven Drozd of the Flaming Lips called Songs For Dustmites, and did a short tour with it. Was a little odd to see him sitting at the bar nursing a beer before the...
