I opened for Dave Mason at The Bottom Line in 1990. He opened AND closed his set with "We Just Disagree." #AT40

I love everything BJ Thomas does, but I wish he'd passed on this. #AT40

You would think the Nobel Peace Prize was made out of 13 year-old girls the way Trump wants one so bad.

Let me just say, as a drummer, there are countless classic rock licks and grooves that are beyond me. But right at the top is the opening fill of "We're an American Band," which I never knew until two years ago is mostly done on the friggin' kick pedal. Check, please.... #AT40

#AT40 A masterpiece of 70s pop. But I agree with the guy who said that "B.W. Stevenson" sounds like a Chevy dealership in the midwest

Chuck Eisenhauer @chucke40.bsky.social · 7d

My fave song of the show - My Maria by BW Stevenson. Another tune that should’ve been longer. #AT40

Can't you just see him saying it?

When Bill Parcells was coaching the Patriots, during training camp one year, he had all the beat writers around him. He challenged all of them to name a better song than "Midnight Train to Georgia." When one guy laughed, he snapped, "You got something to say? No? Yeah, I thought so...." #AT40

I don't like to take medical advice from a guy who no longer uses a toilet. I'm funny that way....

Mother Jones @motherjones.com · 17d

Erik Siebert, the federal prosecutor whom President Donald Trump pushed out Friday for declining to prosecute his political enemies, listed as an attorney on 675 federal cases.

His replacement, Lindsey Halligan, who's Trump's former lawyer, has worked on only three.

The wildly unqualified lawyer Trump just named to prosecute his enemies

Lindsey Halligan, the new US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, has no experience as a prosecutor.

Does Tylenol cause childhood autism? We asked an elderly man dressed as Uncle Sam who drove 2100 miles to attend the Charlie Kirk memorial stadium event.
