The very last song The Ramones ever did. You can see their leather jackets hanging up at the end. Eddie Vedder on vocals. What a way to put my teenage years to bed.

We are at a very dangerous point right now, in which a narcissistic sociopath, insatiable for power, is losing public favor and facing an enormous scandal.
He is desperate and will do (or allow to be done) anything that might claw back control and popular sentiment.

Pretention is a crucial problem for all artists—but particularly insurgent arts—it can’t be avoided, can’t be denied. The things we use to overcome it: utilitarian helpfulness, comedy, spirituality, eroticism,* all may bring their own problems & limitations.

Burning the midnight lamp tonight to finish mixing a recording of an Emily Dickinson poem, now a song, that I did on her birthday anniversary this week. If it stands up, I’ll release it later this week as part of my long-running Parlando Project.

This is an old Merle Haggard song. The Wainwrights recently covered it (brilliantly). But I like Phoebe’s voice and the sad poem of this montage.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.
