There was a time when Seger used to wail like a cat passing a gallstone and his songs would never be mistaken for a Chevy commercial. Now? Not so much...

They just added a fourth show here in Detroit.

Well I think the cat and the gallstone had both passed a long time before I saw him in Peoria January 22 of this year. Glad I didn't pay (several hundred each) for the tickets, thanks Carol. The opening act Larkin Poe was good.

Swedish Cows.

"Wango Tango" - Ted Nugent. Stoopid with a capital S - and pretty damn funny - but the guy can play a little bit and yes we'll claim him as one of our own. His childhood home is still standing over in Redford Township, about 10 miles from Casa Doctor D.

Detroit: it's a dismal cascade of drek but it's still home.

I went to Ted and the Amboy Dukes in '74 not long before they split up. Ted was already playing a long guitar heavy song called Stranglehold. This was a good year before it was released.

Odd coincidence was that a local radio station I had on yesterday (Mother's Day of all things) was having a "flashback" moment and that was the selection.

Never had the desire to see Terrible Ted again.

[Scout]

Suitably impressed here. Love the encouragement of discussions about music here instead of just a dry list.

[Scout]

Discovered today that to renew my Rolling Stone subscription for a year will cost me $50. What the heck?

[The_Ficus]

Vinyl of Glass Vegas.

[Scout]

A short review? Not familiar.

[The_Ficus]

Pretty mild, 80s esque synth pop with mindless, meaningless tunes stretched over it. A bit like Bjorns but not as nice. More like Tame Impala or the Mary Onettes.

[The_Ficus]

Scout, will you be renewing your Rolling Stone subscription? I just decided not to renew Yoga Journal. I do think I will subscribe to something other than my kids' magazines and Pioneer Woman.

[Scout]

Thanks for the info, Ficus. I subscribe to several print magazines (probably tmi, but like to have something to read on the john :-), but none of them come close to costing $50. Most are $5 a year. I will not be renewing Rolling Stone. I don't understand the high price, although I do enjoy reading it and will miss it. It's the only way I find out what's new in music and also keep up with the old groups I grew up with. They're pricing themselves out of the market, and that's sad. You might try Discount Magazines website if you're looking for something to read. They have great prices.

Gary Clark, Jr.

[Sally, la reina]

Slavonic dances opus 72

Busoni Piano Concerto (Garrick Ohlsson)

[Scout]

Gary Clark, Jr. is a natural musician. Can't help grooving to his music.

[Phil]

TV is on in the other room. I'm sort of listening to that.

The teen next door is revving his dirt bike. He's been doing this for ten minutes. So I'm listening to that, too.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Mahler Symphony no. 5, Berlin Philharmonic, Bernard Haitink.

[CD]

Working my way through some of the Grammy Nominees.
Not ALL, some.

I've always like the LSO and CSO with Sir Georg Solti and those Mahler renditions.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I also have the Solti version with the CSO on my computer.

[Scout]

I'm also attempting to listen to some highfalutin tunes . . . but Robert Johnson is drowning them out.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Mahler Symphony No. 6, Berlin Philharmonic, Claudio Abbado

[Phil]

Impeachment trial.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

You go, citizen Phil !

[Sally, la reina]

July talk and Mac Miller on repeat.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Der Arbeitsmann by Richard Strauss. Sung by various baritones.

[CD]

The emergency services scanner. It's the weekend and the Interstate is a few hundred yards away. When the various groups respond with screaming sirens and flashing lights, I periodically like to know what is going on. I mean if there's going to be a fireball, I'm going out to watch.

Tiefland by Eugen D' Albert
