Fourteen perfect songs. Twenty-six minutes. No guitar solos. All five of the chicks in the auditorium pushed to the front row. No keyboards. No backup singers. No harmony singers. No horns. No breaks. No belts nor calipygian guys, yet no jeans fall down; how? Perfect count-offs to all songs by...

Brand-new Vulfpeck! :listening:

Cory Wong and the Wong-Notes, with Victor Wooten guesting on bass. Damn, that bari sax player must be 6'10", at least!

Wow, you're right. Now I want to find that interview where I heard the accent... :oops:

Quick interview with Tony Levin (King Crimson, Peter Gabriel, and countless studio sessions) on the Chapman Stick. I've always wanted one of these, or at least rent one and experiment with how to play it. The last interview I saw with him was back in, what, the '80s? Then he had a very...

My first concert, which my folks took me to, was Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton. I was too young to appreciate Dolly, and I despised PW. There's been a lot of neat tributes to her on TV and the 'net these last few days, but Rick Beato's here is fantastic: Tomorrow I need to pull up her...

New video, where I worked the last ten years of my career. Got to see a few familiar faces. :cool:

The tech guys who do the weekly Waveform Podcast (Marquez Brownlee's crew) all flew to Spain to see the recent total eclipse, and they video'd it in real time with ground shots, filtered shots with a 500mm, and a shot taken from a drone that showed the "totality shadow" racing across the valley...

I kinda forgot about Marius, then after watching this realized I hadn't subscribed! Coolest gift exchange on the planet, where four talented makers/creators make things for each other; wow: Here he makes the world's most precise set of VixBits™:

Techno... on a Jaws Harp. :oops:

I bought the first two albums from the brilliantly-named "Stick Men" (two Chapman Stick players, and a drummer! ), this is the first time I've seen them on video. Turns out they have a boxed set coming out and are on tour (Tony Levin is 80, and just came off an anniversary tour for King Crimson).

An unusual mashup I missed, 5 years ago: Nina Haugen/A-Ha, by Pomplamoose.

What is this? I'm old enough to remember the Beatles' debut on Ed Sullivan, and this song was not played. In fact, I haven't heard it before.

EweTube just tickled a long-forgotten synapse! I danced my ass off to this record back in college, and it got me dancing again tonight (sorry about the visual). Flamenco Disco!
