It occurs to me that if I went to (what we used to call) "an old man bar" it would now just be a "me bar."

An enormous honor, as always, to have a byline in the NYTimes!! I've written about the amazing roadies, soundmen and techs who continue to work well into their 60s and 70s! These Roadies Help Stars Rock ’n’ Roll All Night. They’re in Their 70s. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/09/a...

Some of the live music industry’s most respected and consistently working roadies, instrument techs and sound people have been on the job for half a century.

Hey I got this gorgeous object in the mail, commemorating the wondrous fact that 30 years ago I helped make a record that sold over 20 million copies! So, yay. But it still won't bring back The DuMont Network.
