The End of an Era or: Thank You All

Salutations™!! As you may or may not know, Dear Reader, I have written this blog “every day” (at least FOR every day) since November 1, 2014. That was right after, well a month and a half after, my honeymoon. I did the Rolling Stone Top 500 Albums of All Time list (the 2012 list that…

The Count So Far or: 2554+3

Salutations™!! Let me start by saying that the number in the title has nothing to do with what I’m going to say here. I tallied up my totals for my podcast episodes. The last I checked, in September, it was 2186. As of today, I have produced or co-produced 2281 episodes. So 95 since September…

 He Occasionally Takes an Alcoholiday or: The Wake (2543 + 14)

Salutations™!! Today, I learned some very sad news. Finnigan’s Wake will be closing its doors permanently on October 30. Finnigan’s Wake is THE reason the Arts District in Downtown Winston-Salem exploded in to ’00s. Yes, there were other now-staples such as Sweet Potatoes and 6th & Vine, but none had the impact that Fins did….

Dating or: 2540 + 17

Salutations™!! No, I’m not dating, Dear Reader. The Less Desirables will be doing a remote recording from Cin Cin Burger Bar on November 10. As a promotion, Tracy, one of my work wives/co-hosts is silent-auctioning a date with her for this event. Here are some details about the “silent auction”: THIS IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH…

Sounds Like Saturday or: 2527 + 30

Salutations™!! Today is the 40th anniversary of The Police’s Ghost in the Machine album. It has a lot of great tunes, especially the singles. I have always loved this song and this is a unique cover.

2526 + 31 or: The Timer

Salutations™!! That title is a little weird, I know. It won’t make much sense now, but it will over time. It is what it is and what it is will be revealed soon. Until then, today is the 37th anniversary of U2’s The Unforgettable Fire album. And because I don’t pass on playing a Mike…

Salutations™!! With all this “Now Normal” stuff going on, I didn’t even realize that I had passed 2000 blog posts last week. I think my official count makes this 2,008 blog posts. Part of it is that I have posted every, single day since November 1, 2014. That, Dear Reader, is 1,985 days. So, before…
