Punk Song-A-Day #253: Descendents - We. One of their best tracks and if you take the time to listen closely you'll realize it ranks up there with some of the best love songs ever written. youtu.be/WLETykQ_ZZA?... #punk

Had a stack of 'new to me' vinyl delivered via post yesterday and been unable to touch it. Better half dominated the media all day binge watching right until the baseball game started. The records are stacked in the corner and I'm sure they are staring at me and whispering among themselves...

Another 10% Eh? Look, I'm no fan of Doug Ford but that ad was factual and accurate even if it was missing some context. After this Ford shouldn't pull the ad. After this he should increase the budget and get that commercial on the air during Super Bowl. Heck, he should crowdfund that. #cdnpol

Punk Song-A-Day #252: Phleg Camp - Clarify. The only band I saw more often than Grasshopper or hHead back in those hazy days of 90's Toronto. youtu.be/nx1R2QubcCY?... #punk

I'm looking forward to hearing how Pee Pee Poutine is going to blame PM Carney for a television ad campaign that was the brainchild of Doug 'The Hash Man' Ford that accurately quoted Ronnie Raygun but sent Diaper Don into a frenzy last night. #cdnpoli

Punk Song-A-Day #251: Grasshopper - Born Loser. This popped into my head today. Toronto band from the early 90's. They were not very original, but they played a lot, it usually only cost $5 at the door, and as such I saw them more times than I can remember. youtu.be/voK0_nWy7OU?... #punk

Kate Bush is always a good choice. I'm experimenting with a sort-of goulash dinner tonight so her music seemed the right choice. #vinyl #nowspinning

Punk Song-A-Day #250: The Hard Ons and Henry Rollins - Let There Be Rock. I saw something about how these guys are "the most Australian band ever". I am not qualified to validate that but this track is pretty damn tight. youtu.be/FMzowawbDbk?... #punk

Not giving Springer MVP for that series is a massive injustice

Never been happier to be wrong about how I thought this series would end after that disastrous 8th inning in Game 5. Go Jays Go!!! #BlueJays #ALCS #WorldSeries

This album serves as a pretty decent reminder for me that the early 90's wasn't about one type of music. We listened to everything. Punk in some dive bar one day, alt-rock hits at a dance club the next, glow sticks and a warehouse the day after that and hip-hop in-between. #vinyl #nowspinning

I should pay closer attention but when I ordered this online I thought it was a single 12" reissue of the album not 3x10" with 2 tracks per side. Still glorious deep dub vibes. #vinyl #nowspinning #dub

Punk Song-A-Day #249: Gogol Bordello - Immigraniada (We Comin' Rougher). Great song for this weekend. Great song for any weekend. Great song for any time. I need to see them live again. Also need to grab those recent vinyl reissues. youtu.be/aKpgb2WrGo0?... #punk

The better half is grumpy because she came downstairs and the coffee wasn't brewed. In my defence I thought she was sleeping in and wanted it to be fresh when she woke. So cheering her up with this... the response "Kinda energetic for this early in the morning isn't it???" #vinyl #nowspinning

Only thing I know about them is the doot do doot do song and that it’s about meth and I’d like to keep it that way.

Another one of Benn's great quotes ""What power have you got? Where did you get it from? In whose interests do you exercise it? To whom are you accountable? And how can we get rid of you?"
