Nirvana's third & final studio album 'In Utero' hit #1 on the U.S. albums chart 32 years ago on October 9, 1993

Rediscover Nirvana’s ‘In Utero’ (1993) | Tribute

Three decades on, there is still a sense of urgency to ‘In Utero’ that propels it beyond its scatterbrained bombast production value and obtuse lyricism.

Update: at happy hour today (the 620 Club) I happened to meet a guy who played for Cretin with the guy that hit this home run in 1978. He claims in a scrimmage vs Richfield in 1976 Steve Christoff (U of M, 1980 Olympics, North Stars) hit a home rum that cleared the Nook into the next street/alley.

Did the combo Moderna/flu shot, just the usual arm soreness, nothing else.

Good to see Nate dipping his Croc clad toes back into Bluesky waters!
Give him a follow so he posts here more and who would have thought you could fly fish under the Stone Arch bridge and catch fish!

After several years of posting about it, I got the Twins to play "Can't Hardly Wait" between innings at Target Field.

In the picture Mike Mills is wearing a Suburbs shirt and there's a giant inflatable Miller High Life bottle on stage.

I missed this when it was in the StarTribune. There's a great picture of REM playing the show that the Replacements also played at.

Raspberry Island was once home to curling rinks, a Navy training center, even an R.E.M. concert

The tiny Mississippi River isle under the Wabasha Street Bridge in St. Paul has a surprising history.

After years of not wanting to bother with another social media platform for the glove repair, I'm having fun posting the before and after shots as short videos on IG. I'll keep posting them here but check me out there.

Immediately thought of the Dead Milkmen.
"We went to the Philly Pizza Company
And ordered some hot tea
The waitress said, "Well, no
We only have it iced"
So, we jumped up on the table
And shouted, "Anarchy!"

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?
