Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! Today on The Man Who Ate the Town podcast, I announced my Top 10 Burgers in WSNC (ish). You can listen to that list on the podcast HERE. You can wait to read the list if you prefer. That post comes out tomorrow at noon. Now, what you may want to listen to the…

Salutations™!! Yesterday was the start of the $1 sale at Underdog Records. Jonathan and De put out around 3,000 records Friday night after work. Jonathan estimates around 1600 of those went out yesterday during the sale. Some people walked out with over 200 records yesterday. The place was a madhouse and I loved seeing it like…
Salutations™!! Again, full disclosure, I forgot to post this yesterday but will date it for yesterday. Today is the 32nd anniversary of Depeche Mode’s Music for the Masses and The Smiths’ Strangeway, Here We Come. So, the song I picked got to say “Strange” in an effort to bridge the two. Enjoy! Until tomorrow, same blog channel……
Salutations™!! I’m going to be transparent, here. I know I update this blog every day. But, somehow I forgot to do that on Friday and then again yesterday. And, Friday was one of those “anniversary posts” that I am always on top of. I totally bombed that one. SO, I’m going to do it, date…
Salutations™!! I’ve told you how much I love this DC Universe thing. I went through the Young Justice series and now I’m doing the Green Lantern series. It’s a lot shorter but I’m enjoying it. I don’t get paid for saying this but if you’ve not checked out the app, yet, and you’re into comics, especially…
Salutations™!! I finished my “Top 10 Burgers of Winston-Salem (ish)” for The Man Who Ate the Town this week. I have contacted all the burger spots that are on the top 10 list and most of them have responded to me. I know what you’re saying, “so, let’s see this list!” Well, you’ll have to…
Salutations™!! Today is the 29th anniversary of Megadeth’s Rust In Peace album. I have always thought that Dave Mustaine was a better songwriter than Hetfield and company in the band that kicked him out. Yeah, he had his issues, but he’s all straightened up from that, found the lord and cleaned up his act. In June…
Salutations™!! This weekend, as I said was a little bit weird, timing-wise and we didn’t get to do our normal listening. That also threw our posting off a little on Beeswax Vinyl and in the Underdog Records “Now Spinning” page. So, I’ll leave a little posting about them here. Hah’bah’dah? This is from Saturday, Sunday…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was a scheduling-weird day for The BCPF and me. We had a house-warming to attend in Charlotte so we had to put our regular activities on hold. We got back into town around 3pm so then we got to go to Underdog Records and got to listen to a few before we went…
Salutations™!! Today is the 40th anniversary of Cheap Trick’s Dream Police album. I got to perform my favorite song from this album when VSS did the Live at Budokan a few years back. But, other than Clay Howard, I don’t think anyone touches Robin Zander trying to sing these songs, so, instead of a cover, here’s the…
