Found a prominent piece of my awesomely misspent youth on the interwebs, a flyer from Bad Brins' first time in Nashville, August of 1989. I had just turned 19. Bad Brains melted our faces. My copy of this flyer sadly disappeared over time.

My favorite spot in downtown Nashville, a swimming pool reclaimed by nature and hidden by a fence and overgrowth. You may not see it well here but trees are growing through a pool cover. With Broadway stupidity happening right down the street.

The "UFO" at the top of what's now the Sheraton in downtown Nashville opened in 1975 as The Polaris. I was 5 then and loved staring at it. Glad it's still here even if it doesn't spin now. A small part of "Old Nashville" that still lingers, seen from my window at work.

This date in 1996 The Ramones played their final show. They ended it in true Ramones style, leaving without saying goodbye to the crowd or each other. This box set came out of it the next year. I've only watched it once. Crazy to think they broke up during the VHS era.

I don't often show myself here or anywhere online for that matter. Here I am unleashed to the public this humid Tennessee evening before they catch and poo it me back in my box.

Playing my own gig to an audience of one on the stompbox kit with some New York Blues backing tracks. The only bang-pows to be heard in here.

The Roxy Theater near me in Dickson TN is such a wholesome place they'll show Jackass but won't post it on the sign. Same theater that showed "Heckboy" when that was new. I love and hate this ridiculous state both at the same time! I still haven't seen Jackbutts 1-4.

Browsing the thrift stores, looks like all I have to do is change my name to Gene Baker and I can have an autographed framed picture of Pat Boone all to myself!!

Got my stompin' box today and a bag of Sweetwater candy with it. Much fun to be had with this.

Ordered one of these today for my "porch jam" kit consisting of this, a snare drum and cymbal. I either want a swamp blues porch jam duo/trio or a one man band spectacle.

A cool find in the Goodwill Outlet bins for the country side of my collection. I didn't know Shout Factory did music releases. It's all "hits", or known stuff, but it's the known stuff I like all in one place. I'll listen tonight while the goofy CMA fest happens a few miles away from me.

Jogal.brand shirt, cheap-ish Uniqlo selvedge jeans, Clarks brand chukka boots. All new. This was my rockabilly outfit today. All new stuff. Fast fashion? Sure. All my vintage stuff got worn out ages ago so much easier to just go this route, rules be damned! And I'll make my cuffs whatever length! 😆

Some musical stuff picked up at the Great Escape, Madison Location (5 minutes from my home so I don't even have to venture far!) just now. These Billy Mure records are fun 60's guitar instrumentals and worth picking up if you stumble upon them at a thrift store. Not well known so always cheap.

A picture of a CD case for the psychobilly band Guana Bats titled The Very Best Of.

Nine CD's in this. For a quarter, even "very scratched "I couldn't leave it. Every other "very scratched" bargain bin CD I've got here plays fine.

I hate downtown Nashville these days but I do like to stop by this alley in between the back of Ryman and Tootsies where Hank and others once sneaked out for a nip between Opry sets. Wish I could do the same now but sadly my profession isn't as forgiving!

DIY project - took fabric cutters to my old retired Gretsch work shirt and put the back piece on a new Dickies shirt with a sheet of heat and with the help of my wife's much more skilled ability. Success!
Black Dickies work shirt with a Gretsch guitar Sinners and Saints rockabilly logo.

Stopped by the Great Escape, downtown Nashville location. Picked up some stuff to listen to tonight. Starday, by the way, was located minutes away from my house but is sadly now gone.

Too much going on in and around the area makes me want to stay in out of the fray. As such, here's my Saturday afternoon soundtrack.

Spending the afternoon kicked back with this Proper Records Little Walter/harmonica blues box set. Some great stuff to sift through here.

If you like good garagey surfy instrumentals and want to hear some great tracks from some good lesser-knowns, this 4-cd set is a great source. On Rock Beat Records.
