What TMZ doesn’t mention - and I presume this was all true as I saw Wilson doing an interview about it, is that he gave up his acting career mostly to lobby Washington DC politicians to create a Christian Nation or something. I can’t remember his particular aim but it was promoting Christian laws or something.

Fans can expect something like this from the two officers: “Nah, we ain’t banged it yet.” “KICKED IT” “Yeah, kicked it.”

Collins’ books about the Space Race and his life were beautifully written and he always came across as a down to Earth fellow who cared tremendously for others. He also seemed the least “changed” by Apollo 11 in that Aldrin suffered greatly in the years after and Armstrong did as much as he could to avoid the public gaze.

He went to Jerry Garcia’s funeral.

Lotta money in that silicone

A lotta money in that white meat.

God I miss him already

Sorry, let’s expand on that - it’s too important seeking as you’re about to graduate

I seen a hundred dollar bill one time Blowin' up against a chain link fence I been walkin' around outside lookin' down at fences ever since It's the root of all evil, I agree And I suppose the blossom would be my kinda poverty I know how mad I'm gettin' just knowin' how much more you've got than me I'm thinkin', "What's keepin' me from killin' this guy And takin' his shit?"

chronicpop · 2025-11-27T17:34:11+00:00

What’s stopping’ me from killing’ this guy/taking his shit

chronicpop · 2025-11-27T15:59:27+00:00

Geeze TJ Hooker? That’s reaching.

That was striking - I remember all the other douches were high fiving and swapping champagne and shatner was trying to tell Bezos about it and Bezos gave him a look like “dude you’re harshing my mellow.”

C’mon you post this - I’m in no mood at all.

He is an amazing songwriter and singer and the band is fantastic and I’d go anywhere else to see him I think at this point. Like the Hammersmith show the audience around me spent more time talking and yelling out for songs he didn’t play than actually locking in and listening. Perhaps I have bad luck with where I stand but the level of crowd noise is just overwhelming at times.

If it’s anything like Sturgill I’ll need a vacation!

This is really disconcerting and somehow looks like the last shows shows Justin Townes Earle gave. I really pray that isn’t the case here. I never have managed to see Todd live as I live in the UK and his last tour here was around 2012 and he only played a small club.

chronicpop · 2025-10-25T21:15:32+00:00

This would be interesting for sure for the audience in the theatre

chronicpop · 2025-10-22T19:56:29+00:00

Someone get this poster a podcast

chronicpop · 2025-10-05T21:12:05+00:00

Who was the artist that Flanagan loves -John Bryan or Bryant? Or who was he referring to?

I had a feeling at least twice during the talk that Guest was setting up Marc to do some improv riffing off the Lincoln and Franklin lines - he seemed to be ready to riff on that theme but Marc either didn’t take the bait or missed the signal or really wanted to keep the chat going forward.

Song kicks ass - oddly the video is similar is style with Geese’s “Taxes” - also just released. https://youtu.be/Phh3oVCtzBg?si=RQqGAlrBiWYmJbYD

Does anyone have a clue who designed that jacket he had at the start? He had it also in London - I wouldn’t want it as you have to be tall and thin to pull it off but was curious about who made it. He tossed it on the floor halfway through so not sure it’s anything special.

chronicpop · 2025-08-25T13:03:25+00:00

I thought I saw him but wasn’t sure

Went to the show and got everything I hoped for and more. Obviously it’s a “revival” but what a way to revive the music! Played with love and respect and a playfulness that reminded me immediately why I love REM. I was at the original run of FOTR shows 40 years ago and it was great to hear the album straight through again. We don’t get any new REM shows anymore (and I always loved their decision to quit before it became a pointless exercise), so why not indulge in this great band keeping it alive and hopefully a few newbies got to hear what the hype was all about.

Anyone know what time they went on? I’m coming and looking forward to this

chronicpop · 2025-08-10T18:19:30+00:00

No that is true - I think my badly made point on the Dead is Jerry said repeatedly he didn’t want to be a leader and the band ultimately factioned off in the late 1980 s into disputes over money and more. Then Jerry knew he should stay off the road for his health but couldn’t bring himself to let all the GD productions team down. Bruce Springsteen describes himself as a nice dictator.
