Not sure how intimidating I'm supposed to find the threat of an IRS audit when the person they are praising wants to defund the IRS.

Nearly 200 years after it was composed, an unknown waltz thought to be by the Romantic-era composer Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849)has been discovered in the Morgan Library & Museum in Manhattan, reports The New York Times.

If you didn't know it, Dr. Phil is a rich scumbag that sounds like a racist.

My wife and both of my daughters have now voted. That's the whole clan now.

For the next couple of weeks I will mostly be replying to people on social media with the word:

INCORRECT.

Less so here I am happy to say.

Are the Black Keys even capable of NOT recording the drums so loud that they clip?

They're a good band when they want to be, and the new single has Alice Cooper so you'd think we'd have something solid but those fucking drums.

I don't like it, but I recognize that I'm in the minority. So here you go: The Black Keys with Alice Cooper with "Stay In Your Grave"

Aw man....

Phil was the nicest guy, and a true adventurer. I met him twice and he was friendly and smiled almost constantly.

There is a documentary about The Grateful Dead where a cameraman is following Phil, and he notices that the rig the camerman is holding causes one of his amp speakers to squeal. He then spends the next 10 minutes trying to find different sounds depending on where the camera is, and how to incorporate that into the live show. Awesome.

Have some straight ahead unabashed rock and roll from Finland. Maybe finally the Von Hertzen Brothers will break big outside of their homeland.
