Mark Robinson, Repugnikan candidate for governor of North Carolina, scheduled a fundraiser in Durham yesterday. He drove up, saw these women there to greet him, and promptly canceled the fundraiser.

@TwiHusband @MookyTroubadour It's important to understand that when "Leningrad Cowboys Go America" was made, they were actors hired to play a part, and the part was, the worst rock and roll band on the planet.
Like Otis Day and the Knights and The Commitments, they decided to keep the act going when the film was done.
And, I continue to believe that "The Total Balalaika Show" was special because it happened during a brief period of history when Finland and Russia could be friends.

@TwiHusband This is I think of whenever I hear the Lynyrd Skynyrd original.
This came from a historic concert. I recommend watching the entire film. youtu.be/sX9Z7NPyjNY

I had never heard of Aoife O'Donovan prior to her set at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival on Sunday, and I was blown away by her performance. Here is one of the songs she did.

@NorthernInvader

Thanks for posting. I'll read it tomorrow. I can't take any more tonight.

Here's a non-paywalled version for anyone else interested. archive.ph/v059G

@BeGrateful "Challengers" had young people smoking, aspiring athletes, no less. Some product placement money changed hands on that one.
And speaking of product placement, there's "Avatar". How much would it cost to ship a case of Marlboros to another planet, so that a scientist can smoke them in a lab?

Going to the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in San Francisco. Seeing A.J. Lee and Blue Summit, an excellent bluegrass band, at 1:15 PM PDT on the Towers of Gold stage, and Emmylou Harris at 5:45 PM PDT in the Banjo stage. These performances are livestreamed. A registration is required, but I don't know if there's a fee. hardlystrictlybluegrass.com/hs
