I recorded a board tape of the Fats Domino show from the sound truck at the Nice Jazz Festival in 1980. The performance is remarkably well preserved! Listen to 35 minutes of the show and read about that night. aggrovox.substack.com/p/fats-domin...

My UPS package is 340 miles away, in Lathrop, CA, but it will take 3 more days to be delivered. In 24 hours it travelled 700 miles from Oregon to the UPS distro facility on Hwy 5 in NorCal. Makes zero sense. Unless the "last mile" rule of delivery physics is actually true...

35 minutes of live, unreleased music from Fats Domino - the first King of Rock & Roll, from the Nice Jazz Festival in 1980. I recorded the show from the sound truck and it holds up extremely well after 46 years! aggrovox.substack.com/p/fats-domin...

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time. I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

Nobody sets out to make a bad movie. Hundreds, sometimes thousands of people work their asses off to put the sound and images up on the big screen. Sometimes it's not good. The story might be great; the cast wonderful, and the sets superb, but... When it doesn't work, it's often not even close.

"The whole point is to make everyone believe that there is not truth. When that happens, the biggest liar wins." Sounds like the MAGA game plan, aided by the recent lifting of ownership caps for broadcast in America. The biggest liar is about to win (again). www.imdb.com/title/tt7939...

Are video games responsible for 'timeline hopping' narratives in movies/TV? Sure, a flashback for an origin story reveal. Entire parallel timelines joined with visual cuts (a man walks toward a door; cut to the reverse angle of a different man opening a different door in 20 years). Just stop.
