She’s a moog pioneer. And she collaborated with Al in '88.

A lot of people don’t know that Al was on a Brian Wilson track in the early 1990s, “Let’s Stick Together” (it later became “The Waltz”).

His stuff from the mid '70s is rough, but it’s still pretty funny.

There have only been 4 artists to have a Top 40 single in each of the last 4 decades ('80s, '90s, '00s, and '10s).

• Michael Jackson
• Madonna
• Weird Al Yankovic
• U2

(In that order.)

I wish that album were still in print. You can easily “acquire” a digital copy, but it would be nice to own the physical record.

A great collab with Wendy Carlos.

Honestly, I sometimes even rock out to “Belvidere Crusin’” (1976).

A more accurate question is “can humans understand canid languages?”

Every time one of these “revelations” come out, it’s met with surprise and disbelief. Meanwhile, any empathetic three year old can probably deduce that the noises dogs make to each other probably have some meaning.

Meanwhile, some people keep trying to tell us that non-human animals don’t have the capacity for things like communication and emotion.

I guess English must be a second language for the Kremlin.

Pretty much everything “Weird Al” Yankovic and his band have ever done.

They’ve gained more recognition in recent years, but most people don’t realize that his catalogue goes back to the mid-1970s. A lot of people are sleeping on his work, even today, because he’s categorized as a “novelty artist”.

The early stuff is rough, but from the mid-1980s on up is worth a listen even if you’re not a fan.

I need eye bleach.

In the US, if my memory serves me correctly, that coveted title of “Most likely to be DUI” belongs to Dodge Ram drivers.

If it turned out to be BMWs, though, I wouldn’t exactly be surprised. 😁

Thumbscrews

Tomorrow’s headline:

“U.S. President has Scientist Arrested and Executed for Daring to Learn Subject Matter Above His Grade Level”

Nope! I read correctly. I just wanted an excuse to talk up Weird Al, honestly. 😁

A big hero of mine is/was “Weird Al” Yankovic. I feel like out of all celebrities that exist, he’s the one that I probably don’t have to worry about turning out to be a horrible person.

I fully agree with Murdoch… there should definitely be no ICE in New York… or anywhere else.

Be aware: Newsweek spent the lead-up to the 2024 election telling us that we had nothing to worry about and that Harris was going to win.

This has been a consistent placating of the non-MAGAts.

Hi, Super Nintendo Chalmers

Did Alice Cooper do something that I’m unaware of? My impression was that he’s much, much less terrible than Kid Rock.

My favorite Kid Cock moment

Let’s not get all of the Kid Rock fans excited.

I’ve heard that Kid Rock’s habits are “mandatory”.

(If you get that, I’m very sorry.)
