Yeah, I realize the Iron Horse is right next to Norcross City Hall, but it's still cool to have an officer on his lunch break sing a song at Saturday Night Karaoke. Come on by next week- you never know what's going to happen!
One thing I can pretty much guarantee will happen whenever anything is in bloom is that my head will be stopped up.
Honestly, I had no idea that the official start of spring was today, but my fucking sinuses told me at least a month ago that it was on the way!
My breakfast every morning consists of an inhaled corticosteroid and an antihistamine year round, but I think I'd have to down a bottle of each one of the damned things every day to clear up this stuff!
Dear everyone who supports Georgia's "Religious Freedom" bill-
Keep your bigotry in mind when the state's economy begins to tank, thanks to tourists, the entertainment industry, sporting events, and even the NFL begin to shun the state.
So, say goodbye to all the "Hollywood money" coming into the state from film and television production companies. Say goodbye to top-tier concerts. And say goodbye to any chance of the state hosting a Super Bowl in that stadium that Atlanta's taxpayers are on the hook for (don't believe that one- well, remember the NFL yanking Phoenix' Super Bowl over the MLK Day flap, and telling Indianapolis "no way" last year when the Indiana legislature passed a similar "rights" bill?).
Don't worry, though- there'll still be plenty of drunken jackholes in Savannah every St. Patrick's Day.
Lollapalooza will celebrate its 25th edition this year in a big way: Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers and LCD Soundsystem have been announced as the headliners at the Chicago music festival this summer.
Lana del Rey and J. Cole are also expected to perform, and the full lineup will be announced Tuesday.
Speaking of Radiohead, Thom Yorke is pissed that tickets for the band's upcoming shows in "smaller, more intimate" venues sold out so quickly.
Yeah, like how dare people clamor for tickets?!?
Loretta Lynn's new album, Full Circle, debuted at number 19 on the Billboard 200 album chart this week- making it Lynn's highest-charting album on the chart in her legendary career.
The album also debuted at number four on the Top Country Albums chart- where it aims to give her a dozen chart toppers.
Prince is joining the ranks of musicians-turned-authors.
Publisher Spiegel & Grau says it will release the Purple One's memoir will publish in fall 2017.
A statement released yesterday says the project, tentatively titled The Beautiful Ones, “will take readers on an unconventional and poetic journey through his life and creative work- from the family that shaped him and the people, places, and ideas that fired his creative imagination, to the stories behind the music that changed the world.”
“This is my first (book). My brother Dan is helping me with it. He’s a good critic and that’s what I need. He’s not a ‘yes’ man at all and he’s really helping me get through this,” Prince told the audience at a Friday night event. “We’re starting from the beginning from my first memory and hopefully we can go all the way up to the Super Bowl,” he said. “Prince is a towering figure in global culture and his music has been the soundtrack for untold numbers of people... for more than a generation; his creative genius has provided the musical landscape of our lives,” said Spiegel & Grau Executive Editor Chris Jackson. “Millions of words have been written about Prince- books and articles, essays and criticism- but we’re thrilled to be publishing Prince’s powerful reflections on his own life in his own incandescently vivid, witty, and poetic voice.”
