    I dunno. Let's say the last song you can hear assuming you're not deaf or otherwise incapacitated. You won't have a wife or any kids around to hear it so really for self-enjoyment.

    Made our first visit to the Chase Center in San Francisco last night, we loved it. Beautiful place, $25 tickets, no parking fee (nice 1mi walk away), proving that great entertainment doesn't have to be ridiculously expensive. Dinosaur Jr., Flaming Lips and Weezer, all really good...

    Last song to hear while alive with my loved ones around, I’d go with Hey Jude.

    Song to hear while actually dying, I think I’d go with this.

    I informally maintain a playlist of songs I want to listen to one last time if I know the end is coming.

    And if I'm in a situation where it's time for hospice staff to crank up the morphine and let me drift away, the song I want to listen to while sitting with friends & family before saying goodbye is the Miles Davis/John Coltrane version of "Someday My Prince Will Come."

    He's still touring. I saw him last night. He quite literally brought tears to my eyes. I know that sounds over the top but the story he sang/told was extraordinarily personal and open-hearted. I don't think there's ever been a musician who is so profoundly authentic.

    Last night, I saw Air for the 25th anniversary of their debut album Moon Safari. It was one of the better shows I've attended. Good music, sold out crowd, they played the entire Moon Safari album and some tracks from their other albums. Whoever ran their light show also deserves a lot of credit. It was maybe a top 10 show for me.

    Even better, what was an early birthday present got better when an usher gave me an upgraded ticket that had me 7-8 rows away from the stage.

    Lastly, the venue, the Fox Theater, is as always, incredible. Right in downtown Detroit and it was a party. Something Trump will never get.

    I can believe it.

    Only saw him once, 35-ish years ago. Solo set, playing a pink Stratocaster turned down so low it barely sounded like an electric guitar.

    He is absolutely guileless and genuine.

    A case where the cover is far better than the original

    Here’s a fun video the algorithm fed me, hardest rock n roll (mostly) songs from 1954-1964. Probably half of them were new to me, and the ones I know are all great choices (though I’d also include Chuck Berry’s Around and Around and at least a couple Bo Diddley songs). I wasn’t surprised to see Link Wray on there several times.

    Boy, Dick Dale really does stand out, even with Cochran and Wray and Uncle Chuck, don't he?

    Amazing how many of those songs I first heard as cover versions...

    Totally. And that one I actually knew because I have it on a compilation of stuff produced by Joe Meek. Which has lots of weird wonderful shit on it.

    This is easily the most famous (Musician famous- he's not anywhere close to being entertainer famous) of the players I've seen on this stream..



    EDIT: listening now. Keep scrolling if you can't handle chops. This is more chop-laden than a lot of the jazz I've posted- like going to the gym and watching some guy hit threes right handed, left handed, from different places, without ever missing.
