Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Robbie Robertson - Eponymous (1987). Lead guitarist for Bob Dylan. Founding member and songwriter for The Band. Storied solo career. We sadly lost him last year at a young 80 years old. #music #nowplaying en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robb…
Wow! #Ayaneo, the premium handheld game console maker, has just unveiled their Ayaneo 3 #Windows gaming device and while it doesn’t appear that unique, it does have a neat gimmick. The controls are magnetically swappable. Just watch. #videogames #hardware www.youtube.com/watch
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Psychodots - Terminal Blvd. (2005). Rob is prolific. He was in The Bears with Adrian Belew, The Raisins, and has a strong solo career, and is a stellar guitarist. A deeply underrated talent. #music #nowplaying
I’m a full album listener and appreciate explorations of particular musicians across multiple phases of their career (e.g., Jason Falkner, Rob Fetters, Simon Phillips). I’m pleased to see someone finally ran a study on the so-called ‘Sophmore Slump’. #music entertainment.slashdot.org/story/24/…
I’m a native Angeleno. I was born in #Pasadena, just outside of #LosAngeles way back in 1968, just in time to miss the Pacific Electric Red Car era. I still live in #SoCal and getting around is… difficult, but it’s been getting slowly better. I found this video quite hopeful. www.youtube.com/watch
Found this in my #YouTube recommendations this #Christmas morning :) The #Lancia #Delta #Integrale is my all-time favorite rally car and this is some stunning #animation in Unreal Engine 5 #UE5 #shorts #film www.youtube.com/watch
Wow. Good job making your customers think their computers were infected with a virus, ASUS. #stupid #capitalism #tech tech.slashdot.org/story/24/…
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Vintage Trouble - The Bomb Shelter Sessions (2011). This bombastic 1950’s R&B, soul, funk inspired band from LA put on one helluva live show. They remind me a lot of the fictional band from the movie Animal House, Otis Day & The Knights. www.youtube.com/watch #music #nowplaying
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Train - Train (1998). I’m sorry if you love Train, but this is really the only album of theirs I truly love. I’d describe it more like Southern fried AAA rock rather than the more pop-oriented albums that follow. Nice, modern twist pre-2k. #music #nowplaying
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - Global a Go-Go (2001). Joe’s just a fantastic musical presence and this album is him through and through. Great groove from top to bottom. #music #nowplaying
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: The Smithereens Play Tommy (2009). Who doesn’t love The Who and I adore The Smithereens. With the latter playing the entire “Tommy” album by the former, it’s a match made in musical heaven! #music #nowplaying
Just got done watching the first episode of #StarWars #SkeletonCrew and it’s definitely a banger. Great writing, casting, VFX, sound and music, and pacing. It’s nice to see some suburbia in a Star Wars property, as well, and the Goonies vibe is strong with this one. This will be the first new Star Wars I’ve been excited for since Rogue One. #TV
I started talking about nerdy stuff, so my wife put a stop to that. #photos #funny (I hope)
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: It Bites - Eat Me in St. Louis (1989). Having just finished some Frank, I thought I’d put on his old bands 3rd and final album. It Bites would usher in the Neo-Prog Rock era with strong power pop vibes. #music #nowplaying
Now Playing @ Nothing Manor: Francis Dunnery - Lets Go Do What Happens (1998). I was living in Vermont at the time, heard this on The Point FM, and drove from Eden to Williston to buy this album on cassette. #music #nowplaying
