Black Keys, Preservation Hall and Dr. John blast us into the weekend

The boys from Akron, the Black Keys, had a great night at the Grammys last week, winning awards for best rock song and best rock performance for their single “Lonely Boy” and best rock album for ‘El Camino”.

They also provided what was clearly the best performance of the night, although it surely didn’t hurt that they were teamed up with the legendary Preservation Hall Jazz Band, with the great Dr. John on keyboards. Their performance of “Lonely Boy” tore the place up, waking up a show badly in need of a shot of adrenalin.

It’s a good way to send us into the weekend ….

That public transportation thing. I’ve got a friend who does dance reviews/commentaries. I was reading his review of the Pacific Northwest Ballet’s NYC presentation of “Romeo and Juliette” which he had headlined “My Day at the Ballet.” Now confined to a wheelchair, he was going on and on about his travails of getting to the theatre and the elevator/handicapped access dysfunctions at the various stations. Turned out, he got there just in time to catch the finale, thus his day at the ballet.

I can see you missed the back-hand in that one…I didn’t. I suspect he may have had you in mind when he did that “editing.”

Del: See, now the way you presented THAT was just mean. It’s all in the delivery and the relationship I would say. But you know that, this isn’t your first rodeo. You just wanted to be a dick. I dunno why……..

josef: That would suck

Brocephus: I just checked my phone. What a beautiful little girl. I love the “baby burrito.” I laughed when they told us that one. I want another one dammit………

Change that verb “to be” to “to have” and I think you may be right! :-)

Fred, don’t you feel naughty doing a beer run on a Sunday night?

It used to be so taboo.

Bro, you gotta do one more.

The odds are on your side big time now!

Just do it.

This compilation (on cassette) was one of the very first pieces of music I ever bought.

Even back then, did I have some awesome taste in music, or what?! LOL!

A real man will acknowledge his limitations. After watching the Mrs go au natural without an epidural, two is enough. Just sayin’

Yeah……. and apparently the words birth and control aren’t uttered much in the same sentence either………….. as Brocephus continues with the browning America…………

Oh and Kam: Awesome. I had never heard of that dude before. I started laughing so hard it turned into a cough that almost killed me. (I’m sick, remember?). After that one I did this one (well actually I’m still doing it since it’s over an hour……..):

Fred, Oh, we got Muslims around. And Hindu. Some of my kids best frinds were Hindu. And one of my kids father-in-law was Hindu. Went to his funeral. The Minister (sic) did a good job. He knew is audience was mostlynot Hindu and did well.

Oscar? What does Hindu have to do with Muslim? My next door neighbor is Hindu. They don’t do Allah, they do 330 MILLION other gods and minor deities instead……..

On the other side I have the Greek orthodox and his nasty Missiouri wife convert. Next to them is the Buddhist from Thailand and her Wisconsin heathen hubby. Next to them is the militant yankee Jewish wench and her coonass Catholic Hubby. We of course are the protestants. I’m a redneck and my wife is…………..

We have the lesbians down the street, the Cubans on the corner, the Chinese dude and his violently atheist wife across the street from them. Don’t forget the nasty old spinster lady who teaches piano. The black folks across from HER and the Indians next to them. I can go on, but NO Muslims………….. we are quite diverse.
