The Beatles made their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show as 73 million Americans watched, still one of the largest viewing audiences ever.
What was that name again?
Barreracudas… ? Ok
This song punches every one of my rocky dopamine receptors right in the pants. In a good way.
Sandinista Turns 40
Self-indulgent mess? Misunderstood masterpiece? I usually have an opinion on matters musical, but it’s now been forty years and I’m still not sure what to make of this album. Which may be the point. Or not.
Years Ago My Heart Was Set To Live
This is lovely, although Petersson clearly didn’t get the memo vis-à-vis camera orientation.
Masterful
I know you bastards aren’t necessarily gamers, but I’m sharing this because it’s pretty goddamned impressive. This guy or gal is playing The Last Of Us 2 on the hardest setting (with no reticle) and takes no damage.
Never mind that, the game’s gorgeous, the story’s engaging and the controls are like butter. Watching this makes me want to play it again …
My New Favorite Song
The French version of The Lollipops’ “Busy Signal,” performed by Gillian Hills, as heard on The Queen’s Gambit, thanks to my Netflix subscription, which is paid automatically every month by the good people at American Express. Happy Friday, bastards!
Oh Hell Yeah
My inner 7-year-old is pretty fired up for this one.
YouTube says March 26th but I think it got pushed to March 31st.
HBO Max!
Legends collide in “Godzilla vs. Kong” as these mythic adversaries meet in a spectacular battle for the ages, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. Kong and his protectors undertake a perilous journey to find his true home, and with them is Jia, a young orphaned girl with whom he has formed a unique and powerful bond. But they unexpectedly find themselves in the path of an enraged Godzilla, cutting a swath of destruction across the globe. The epic clash between the two titans—instigated by unseen forces—is only the beginning of the mystery that lies deep within the core of the Earth.
Shit

Comedy genius and total hottie Cloris Leachman has hopped the twig. 94!
Just Watch
Terrifying.
Ringo Starr, Genius
Ringo Starr was more than just a lucky drummer who hooked up with The Beatles. This video makes the argument that his originality, technique, skill, patience, and influence all add up to making him an unqualified genius of his instrument. He was, by all meaningful ways, the FIRST rock and roll drummer.
Also want to add that something about this guy reminds me of Lurker.
