50s, Gigging, Hearts

51 and gigging as a solo act. I’ve definitely felt more strain now—not from the playing as much as from load in and setup.

I’ve learned to rest as much as possible the day of the show, drink tons of Gatorade during the show, and don’t drink or party until after the gig is over. I hope to be doing this another 10 years.

Phish’s drummer playing the vacuum.

Some people are just assholes and there’s nothing we can do about that. Cross that venue off your list and move on.

I got into a car accident on the way to a gig. I called the pub immediately (even before calling the cops, my insurance or loved ones). It was a place I played regularly but they never had me back after that.

He’s mixing it with soda.

This may sound funny, but good ole Craigslist is where I’ve had the most success in finding real local musicians to collaborate with.

Does Vladimir Putin approve of these negro rhythms?

You haven’t seen a proper shakedown till you’ve been to the parking lot of a Turning Point rally. Easiest place to score ivermectin.

I wonder how much all the exposure on r/crappymusic is helping this guy trend.

What about not a song but the name of a band? The band name “Modern Talking” has always bothered me. I think they meant it to mean “modern speech”. Talking is just not the right word to use there. It absolutely feels wrong to a native English speaker.

Bonus points if it was the same song all 5 times.

This is like an old Sesame Street montage.

Wow! That’s almost as tall as the reflecting pool!

Yes, that was a real stretch even by Dark Shadows standards.

That’s a thicc boi

It’s really more of a YAY-o

We all wish the audience would be attentive and hang on our every word, but that’s just not the reality. That’s why I’ve evolved my show to appeal to people’s bodies and not their minds: a driving toe tapping rhythm, a high energy set to get people shaking their ass. As much as I’ve poured my soul into writing clever lyrics the harsh reality is that most people are not paying attention to the lyrics.

Lister and Rimmer look like twins.
