So, here's the video which made me ask "Hey, who's the girl with the bald head the medals and the fantastic voice?" for the first time.
So Jagger's 80 today.
Someone needs to talk him into doing a live stream for a rendition of (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction 😂
The Dead Milkmen had Jason Aldean and his fanbase sussed out decades ago.
"The movie has had a $720,000 economic impact to Sacramento through hotels, catering, wages, wardrobe purchases, location fees, equipment rental, parking and Sac PD services..."
Annnd what's the impact of actually helping the unhoused of our city? I mean, I walk through these streets daily usually seeing dozens of people who need help and I've been there before. What is this latest Hollywood cash cow for the local economy doing besides enriching all the usual suspects? https://sacramentocityexpress.com/2023/03/21/feature-film-with-celebrity-cast-wraps-up-final-week-of-filming-in-sacramento/
Just taking a minute to say how much I appreciate radio.garden and having all this community radio a click away, as well as the college stations of my youth. http://radio.garden
Speaking of current events, Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra already have it covered with this lesser known gem of theirs from half a century ago.

If this week in Sacramento, as well as the coming week, were a Greta Gerwig film, this would be the opening theme song.*

Robert Fripp & Peter Gabriel - Here Comes The Flood
You know, the longer I experience this past week's series of "atmospheric rivers", the more I appreciate this song.
The Fugs - Wide Wide River
Age 10. When I opened up my first pack of Topps cards for the 1973 season, this was the first card at the front. I grew up going to games at Fenway, but over time, the more I learned about Roberto Clemente, the more this became my favorite card.
50 years ago today, the world lost a man who knew there were bigger things than baseball and acted upon that belief. Thanks nfor one of the most important life lessons of my youth, Mr. Clemente.
It's been a nice dull Eve for me so far, eating way more than usual and having a nice dull lazy day of staying sedentary and nodding off for a while.
I know that for folks like me who tend to be isolated at this time, it can be a challenge, so I hope you're making the best of it.
Like every year, I'd like to invite any of you interested to join me in my annual traditional viewing of that other Frank Capra Christmas film.
Meet John Doe (1941)
Yes, Mr. Heron, it certainly is.
