I saw the Goodyear blimp flying around downtown Cleveland on my ride tonight and figured it was probably tentatively scheduled for a Guardians playoff game so they took it out anyway since its a georgous night.

Never forget Browns Center Mike Baab who cast himself as the lead (alongside Tiny Tim, a live bear and Michael Stanley) in the Browns bonkers answer to the Super Bowl Shuffle.

Really its likely due to Regional Sports Networks that don't have a catalog of syndicated programs to pull from.

A buddy of mine once wore flip-flops to a show just to bother me and boy did he regret it by the end of the night. A packed Guided by Voices show ensured I got the last laugh.

Only rule I have is that people should not wear open-toed shoes to club shows. I don't like feet (I realize this is a me problem) but also you're probably in one of the worst bathrooms in your city.

I would watch an 8-part doc or read a long-form article on how Sophie B. Hawkins decided to throw a SHUCKS into Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover.

Was it planned? Ad-libbed and left in? Are there outtakes where she tries other words?
