Native Detroiter stuck in St. Louis. Michigan Wolverine fan. Drummer. Motorcycle rider. Blue Note collector. Waffle House enthusiast. Navy vet. USF Don. There’s a good chance I think your favorite band sucks.

If a GB500 is ever released in the US (there’s a rumor that it will) I will absolutely buy one.

I saw this magnificent beast randomly parked in the lot of a neighborhood church and I had to stop and take some pics. #mopar #dodge #superbee #musclecar #hotrod #dragcar #car #automobile #vintagecar

Michigan stinks.
Everything is terrible.
Eat at Arby’s.

Sucks that it’s in Alabama, though.

There’s nothing bad in life that can’t be fixed by eating an entire pint of ice cream in one sitting.

Done!

In fairness, people are generally pretty terrible.

Now spinning: A Connoisseur Series version of this from ‘94. Baby Face had 2 Blue Note sessions: both of them are excellent w/ this one being the “easiest” to find in the wild. If you’re in to soul jazz, highly recommended LP. #jazz #souljazz #bluenote #vinyl #lp #record #hammondb3 #nowspinning

I would argue that Oklahoma is way worse than just mediocre.

Now spinning: One of the Crown Jewels of my collection… A rare, OG 10” mono from 1955. As an added bonus, it’s one of all time fave Blue Notes. #bluenote #record #vinyl #oldvinyl #rarerecord #jazz #bop #bluenoterecords #oldrecords #trumpet #vinylcollectors #vinylporn #nowspinning

Since I now own the world’s smallest garage, I have to keep my bike at the back of it, horizontally. And even then, my Mini barely fits past the garage door. #motosky #motorcycle #bike #garage #harley #harleydavidson #softail #bobber #streetbob #vtwin #m8 #purple #ride

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours with no prep.

1. Jazz
2. Architecture
3. Michigan football

If punk had been around in the 1930s, some band would have used Lindbergh Babies as their name.

I knew Belva when I interned at KRON. Insanely nice and gracious, a pleasure to have been able to spend time in the same newsroom as her. Rest in POWER, Belva.
