"You know, the young ones get confused about me being able to play with them. Hell, I was listening to Stravinsky when I was a kid. It's not a question of being modern. It's just music. That's what music is - adventure."

who are McCetich, Holmes, and Sumner. Top 3 win. If this holds, it's impt to know this is not atypical for ChrChr candidates in Moscow elections. Not a lot of winning for them. The result would be more status quo than part of some shifting tide tonight...(2x)

City Council results from Moscow, ID, with a preface: Moscow has been in the news a lot b/c of Doug Jones/ChristChurch & their relation w/ Hesgeth. Search it, many stories. The two ChrChr candidates (Schoolland/Slagboom) are behind right now to the three progressive candidates (1/x)

The battle for a North Idaho city’s identity:

Earlier this year I started researching/writing an extensive piece about the Stalag rhythm as a follow up to my Sleng Teng piece. It's still in the works, but I couldn't miss the 40th anniversary reissue of Ring The Alarm without penning a few words for @thequietus.com thequietus.com/quietus-revi...
Reissue of the Week: Tenor Saw's 'Ring The Alarm'
