I came across this somewhat recent documentary on Mo Tucker, and it’s really interesting to see how her playing evolved and the weird kit configurations she used. Fortunately, it makes no mention of her late life conversion to kook.
Weekend Viewing?

The Velvet Underground created a new sound that changed the world of music, cementing its place as one of rock and roll’s most revered bands. Directed with the era’s avant-garde spirit by Todd Haynes, this kaleidoscopic oral history combines exclusive interviews with dazzling archival footage.
And this again, just because it kills me every time …
Just My Speed
After sleeping like shit last night.
This Is Next Level Good
I had no idea a Robin Williams biopic was in the works. I also just realized that this dude played Han Solo. I must admit that my brain was glitching watching this guy portray Williams. It’s like, I know it’s not him, but it is him. Anyways, this looks like it will be worth checking out, whenever it’s released.

The Politburo Did Not Want To Be Sedated, Or Rock and Roll All Night
Here’s a list of bands to avoid and why to avoid them from Soviet era Russia. If some of you bastards would have had access to this list, you would have likely turned out to be more upstanding comrades, er, citizens.
I’m sure they left out a lot of bands, but I’m wondering how Led Zeppelin didn’t make this list, and The Beatles surely would have stoked the ire of the Communist Part Brass for Back in the USSR.
I Never Really Thought About It

The Story Of Salem’s Lot
Salem’s Lot scared the living shit out of me when it originally aired as a two-part miniseries on CBS (November 17 and November 24, 1979). Please to enjoy this one-hour love letter, filled with scary clips, wise observations, and neato behind-the-scenes trivia.
In this in depth retrospective I tell the story of Tobe Hooper’s 1979 vampire epic “Salem’s Lot”, based on the novel by Stephen King. I delve deep into its development, production and legacy while providing my own thoughts on the miniseries. Starring: David Soul, James Mason, Lance Kerwin, Bonnie Bedelia, Lou Ayers, Ed Flanders and and Reggie Nalder. Written by Paul Monash and produced by Richard Kobritz. Copyright Warner Bros. Television.
Lady Boner Pills
Well, Gwyneth has done it. She’s developed a pill that will put an end to the “not tonight, I’ve got a headache” excuse, for only $55. What’s it called you ask… DTF. No lie. As in Down To F**k. I’m think this and that vagina scented candle she’s selling will make great stocking stuffers for Mrs Droogie this holiday season.
GoT Prequel
No idea where the story goes with this, but I’m in.
