Observing the Crossroads discourse. Trey and Phish been about that $$$ since the return of 3.0. And they’ve always been a political disappoibtment. Don’t act shocked. They can still play. A show is still a good time. But Phish, Inc. focuses on the 💵.

Look, I totally screwed up. I should have been hyping The Disco Biscuit’s imminent return to Madison for the first time since 2009. I’ve got a week to fix my mistake and that starts tonight. Part 1 of 2 of “Bisco’s Coming Back to Madison!”. Tonight, we look at the old Madison shows, 1999-2009.

Where are the Boogiedown tapers at? I left my (crappy) rig at home because I assumed there’d be someone with a better rig. Thankfully, my late arriving wife may bring the rig.

Is it bad that I prefer the Flying Frog Brigade’s “Thela Hun Ginjeet” more than the King Crimson original?

I know people are mad abt Google Maps changing the name of Lake Ontario- But I expect Apple Maps will soon follow with the name change - just as they did with the Gulf of Mexico. I searched for Lake America on Apple Maps and one of two results for the term was Lake Ontario

Apple Maps search for Lake America.

Search; Lake america

Result 1: America Lake

Result 2: Lake Ontario

I think it stems from tech bros need to DOMINATE and it is how they see the world. You have to be the WINNER and not like carve out a small, profitable niche that makes people happy. Some people can’t have enough.

So, need to get a digital piano as my son starts his musical journey. Go to Sweetwater. First time buying in years. Sales engineer Grant is still the same. It’s probably my longest online relationship.

Played some adult sandlot baseball for the first time yesterday. Getting a bat on a ball felt damned good. If you’ve been itching to play some baseball, find a sandlot group near you and show up. You will not regret it.

Baseball is good. And Bryce Harper tossed my kid a game used ball. Thanks Bryce! Nice visit to Comerica Park to kick off this week of 3 MLB games, including son’s first trip to CBP.

The Philadelphia Phillies are in the field as they play the Tigers at Comerica Park.
