9 years ago today: My old radio show, #TBPC, paid tribute to 𝐓𝐨𝐦 𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐲 by playing 2 hours of his music. We featured music from 18 albums, 31 songs in all. It was heard on WICR-FM 88.7 in Indianapolis and all over the globe on the station’s livestream. #TomPetty #RIP #WICR

Six years ago we lost the #GOAT: Eddie Van Halen. One of the reasons I played in the first place. His playing and infectious smile made me feel like I knew him. We all did. The world is a little less fun without him. 1/26/55 – 10/6/20 #EddieVanHalen #VanHalen #EVH

Indeed. You were SO much closer to the field at Tiger Stadium. Some people still called Comerica Tiger Stadium. Nope!

I got used to Comerica, I’ll get used to this! I always loved Tiger Stadium!

Boy, that sums it up perfectly. “Too old to be considered young and yet far too young to die.” I’m so sorry.

My dad would have been 90 yesterday. September 12th. He passed away at 59, almost 60. So that’s how he’ll always remain to me. Miss you now and every day.

Irish President Catherine Connolly to Trump, “I conveyed the strong view of the Irish people that the normalisation of war and genocide can never be accepted'. Trump walked away angry & pouting as usual whenever he encounters a strong intelligent woman. Another day. Another embarrassment. ==========

8 years ago (8/29/18) I had what turned out to be my 2nd stroke of the year. It has caused me to be paralyzed in half of my face and it caused the symptoms from the first stroke to get worse. It was a much smaller stroke than the first massive one, but had longer lasting effects. #StrokeSurvivor

My dad died 30 years ago today, 8/29/96. He was 59, just a few weeks shy of his 60th. I, like a lot of kids, didn't always appreciate him as much as I should have when I was younger. I'm glad that I was able to spend a lot of time with him the last year of his life. Nothing but respect & love.

We’ve lost Tim Curry. April 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 One of my very favorite actors. Each moment that Curry was on screen left you transfixed. Whether it was serious, scary or hilarious… you couldn’t look away. I’ll miss him. R.I.P. #TimCurry

#Top15PoliceSongs #7️⃣: “Behind My Camel” (Instrumental) 🐪 Album: Zenyatta Mondatta (1980) Written by my man, Andy Summers. He’s my favorite of the three BY FAR! I have several of his amazing Jazz records! It won the Grammy Award of 1982 for the Best Rock Instrumental Performance.

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

It's been 6 years since we lost Martin Peter Birch (9 Aug 2020). So many bands - so many albums. His work is a foundational part of my music identity. Thanks for all you did Martin, may you rest in peace leaving behind a job VERY well done.

A reminder that lots of places will list today (7 Aug 1983) as the release date for Black Sabbath's Born Again - they're wrong. My own site perpetuated that for a long time, but that date is incorrect. Here's my research on the matter: www.black-sabbath.com/2022/09/born...
