I always wondered what happened to the Bangles, they were very popular into the mid and late 1980's and then pretty much disappeared overnight.
Back in the day, I think Susanna Hoffs was pretty much every guy's fantasy.



I think they broke up for a while.
Susanna Hoffa married the guy who directed the Austin Powers movies.
At about 60 years old she’s still gorgeous

Weird Al Yankovic was always a likeable cool nerd. I used to hear his songs on the weekly Dr Dimento radio show of weird songs and parodies.
I don't know if Dr Dimento still even exists. I bought a few albums of the funniest songs Dimento collected, including some Weird Al songs.

The George Harrisson number he sings here is the first I've seen him play straight, not for humor. And it's actually quite good!

to be that good at musical parody it stands to reason he had to be a good musician in his own right

In honor or Elizabeth Warren's failed campaign and her many depressed cheerleaders in the MSM.

\:lol\:

I hate this victim-crap coming from the Democrats, that it's somehow discrimination toward women that Warren's campaign wasn't more successful.
Likewise Hillary Clinton, Kristen Gillibrand, Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, Cory Booker, Julian Castro, etc., etc.

Every one of these primary candidates were widely praised by the Liberal media. Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris in particular as the inevitable successor to Obama. It was when they stepped in it and made unforced errors and said things that were offputting to voters that they suddenly lost favor, *NOT* because of any blanket discriminatory resistance toward a woman candidate by voters, or conspiracy by party elites or the news media. It was completely their own failure, no other reason.

The one exception where there was a conspiracy was against Tulsi Gabbaard, but as she herself says (with lawsuits to back it) the discrimination against her is because of her independent ideas from outside the mainstream, not because of her gender.

Likewise Trump.
Likewise Bernie Sanders.
Their outsider non-establishment campaigns meet great resistance, both in the establishment-controlled parties and in the establishment-subservient media.

Quite the opposite of discrimination, the Democrat party leadership and the news media are salivating at the thought of a minority, female or gay candidate from their side. They hyped and promoted these minorities and women until they choked all on their own.

A far cry from mainstream treatment of minority-Republican candidates like W. Bush-era attorney general Alberto Gonzales, black secretary of state Colin Powell, black female national security advisor and 2nd-term secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, current HUD secretary Dr. Ben Carson, justice Clarence Thomas, presidential candidate Herman Cain, gay ambassador to Germany and soon DNI director Richard Grennell, and several other highly placed women and minority cabinet members in the Reagan, G H W Bush, W. Bush, and Trump administrations. Democrats and the media try to destroy or at best ignore these examples. Their success breaks the "Republican=white-racist" narrative of Democrats and the media.

Al’s made it clear he won’t do that. He doesn’t want to mock people with the disease.

Country star Joe Diffie dead from coronavirus complications at age 61 - March 29, 2020


Joe Diffie - "Home"


Another casualty of Covid-19. I honestly was unfamiliar with either Joe Diffie or John Prine, but it's sad that their lives were cut short by this pandemic.
At least on some level, they live on in their music.

"Won't Get Fooled Again" - The Who (live)


Although the "new boss" (or the puppetmasters behind him) are particularly Marxist, authoritarian, and fanatically anti-American. By their past rhetoric and actions, the new boss will do his damnedest to "radically transform America" and permanently destroy our constitutional republic. The new boss is essentially the French Revolution, and at the end of four years, or even two years, even Democrats will be wishing for the old boss.

But here I am talking as if Biden was even legitimately elected, as if the people even chose him....

I've been watching "Doom Patrol" now that I could get a cheap copy on DVD and I have to admit the song from the drag club Karaoke scene with Negative Man has been stuck in my head for the entire week since I watched it.

Oh, since I saw Susanna Hoffs discussed at the top of the page, she released a new album this past December called Bright Lights. Great collection of covers similar to what she did with Matthew Sweet on the Under the Covers trio of albums.



Still rocking hard and looking great!
