The Dead End of the Week - 11-3-24

Afternoon folks!

Last week, orlbucfan asked if i would put together a deadhead feature, possibly in honor of Phil Lesh, the Dead's bass player who recently passed. So, thinking about it, I figured that I'd come up with a video to get the ball rolling and let other folks contribute their favorite stuff.

The Weekly Watch

The Tit for Tat Trap

Open Thread Image.jpg

The Israel/Iran war seems to operate in a tit for tat status. Israel blows up Iran's Damascus embassy, Iran floods Israel with old drones and missiles (probably to map their defenses). Israel murders the primary Hamas negotiator in Tehran the day Iran inaugurated its new president, Iran targets and hits Israeli military facilities. In response Israel mounts an aerial attack on Iran's air defense system. So now we're waiting for the response. Is there no way out of this tit for tat trap?

Album of the Week 11-2-24

Afternoon folks!

Well, there's a real grab-bag of goodies this week. Starting off we've got an album from New Orleans blues guitarist Snooks Eaglin after that there's an early album from the Climax Chicago Blues Band and an album from J.J. Cale. Following that we've got some fancy acoustic guitar work from Tony Rice. Then we've got some rockabilly from Carl Perkins and some Zydeco from Buckwheat Zydeco. We finish off with some straight ahead rock from The Godfathers.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

Saturday Open Thread - 11/2/24: Odds and Ends

Good morning, good people!

Well, this is The Last Saturday before the "most" important (s)election of our life times. Man, this election season has been filled with some of the most dangerous rhetoric evah. I know some crazy while folks down south, flying rebel flags, made some dangerous statements against Obama all day, every day. But, he was the main target, for want of a better term, not his supporters.

Now, half the country, more or less, is out for blood (metaphorically speaking, I hope) from the other half. The 99%ers split. Whoever is in control is thrilled. Good for them, the bastards.

Which side wins? Who do the controllers favor? Or will both sides be decimated to the controllers delight?
