A Happy Thanksgiving to you wherever you may be. I’m at work and then headed over to my folks house where I will build a fire, have some Turkey before my turkey, greet my wife and son upon their arrival, watch some football, have a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn’t be beat and then go home.
And [...]
Keeping the theme of songs dealing with Penn State opponents for Music Tuesday this football season can be a little tricky. For example, I was unaware of any Iowa musicians, so I had to look at Wikipedia. The Everly Brothers came up, so I figured they’d be as good as anyone. The Nittany Lions play [...]

They didn’t miss much, though they mispronounced Shenandoah — its Chen-Doe. Overall, they pretty much nailed the entire state.
So, is there going to be one [...]
Remember when I used to do Music Tuesday weekly? Good times, just haven’t been doing it lately. Anyway, on a whim, I searched YouTube for a live-ish version of the Jane’s Addiction song, “So, What.” The now defunct Revolution 101.1 in State College used to play this frequently — it was the only place I [...]
Alice Cooper & Muppets FTW
Happy Summer everyone!
A long time ago, I used to occasionally go to the 9:30 Club. The only thing missing from this Post article is the cigarette smoke the original location had — the air would be blue when you walked in and brown when you walked out. I only went to current one a couple of times. [...]
I’m never more proud of my Irish heritage than when I see this video.
