O god, I was standing in the middle of burning hot Nowhere, Arizona on a desert highway, eating a blended Totino's pizza with a spoon out of a Ziploc bag and holding hands with my best friend and some girl that somehow squeezed in next to me when I wasn't looking.

And that's the story of the day I changed the world.

It's always amazing to see a bunch of extremely talented people cutting loose together.
Thanks Subby.

That was sweet. More genuine emotion in that video than the forced emotion in We are the World.

I didn't see Bono in it, maybe that's why.

Maybe they should have released that, instead.

And a hundred other movies.

Marshmallow Jones: Dan Ackroyd.   Why?


I've read several (conflicting) stories why he was there but the most popular was he came to THAT studio by mistake (maybe something to do with looking for his managers office or something?) but they said "Well, Blues Brothers WAS a music act" so they let him stay.

I get the desire to want to be there, but I'd feel like a douche staying with all those musicians

I did not. Is somebody stealing my life stories again?

johnny queso: ray charles, awesome


I went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 5-6 months after Ray Charles died and they had a nice display dedicated to him. In a glass case there were a couple of Playboy magazines in Braille. Ray requested that, and to tell the truth back in the day everyone read Playboy because they had phenomenal writers. Hunter S. Thomson wrote for them regularly, for instance.
It was pretty cool, better than I expected the place to be.

If all Dylan does is sorta smile the world is indeed "a better place" as the song goes. Never got the fascination with him or his long lost child Tom Petty.

great find subby, that was enjoyable

I had to feel something clear and unsullied  after watching that, so I reread Theodor Adorno's "On Popular Music" and image-searched "Kevin Carter photographer," because we are indeed the world, and today I decided I should feel bad about that. Maybe you should, too.

That didn't provide nearly enough of a funk, so I rewatched some live Danny Gatton & Roy Buchanan videos. Couldn't get a witness, neither they nor I. Too sad. Made lunch.

That guitar work kicked ass. The best part was everybody wondering what the hell Neal Schon was doing there. Awesome guitarist? Sure. Metal? eh . . . . .
