Ed Ackerson passed away 7 years ago. I usually prefer to mark birthdays but Ashley asked us to share his music today. Here's his band who played at the very first Basilica Block Party

I’m a proud Minneapolis Public Schools alum and parent. After talking with MPS families, I’m deeply concerned about the district’s current plan to close 14 or more schools.

Reggae session bassist Jackie Jackson has died at 79. He played on such classics as Desmond Dekker’s “Israelites”, and Toots’s “Pressure Drop”. His work on the Alton Ellis 1967 song “Girl I’ve Got a Date”’is a foundational rocksteady bassline. #RIPJackieJackson m.youtube.com/watch?v=UMd8...

Sad news. The end of an era in Minnesota music history. An excellent band, all through the years.
Slipping into darkness, BiL have made the difficult decision to go on an indefinite hiatus, with one final show at Crooner's on Halloween. Hope to see you there.

I think I may need a total ban on all supposedly "fun" gimmicky episodes of Strange New Worlds. They have a good cast and a good setting and they should tell stories that happen in their main reality only.

It just occurred to me that Sammy Hagar's "I Can't Drive 55" is the antimatter version of the Minutemen's "Double Nickels on the Dime."

"Unload the dishwasher"
Russell Shaw noticed that he’d texted the same phrase to his kids 133 times. He wrote in May about how, in hindsight, he saw profound meaning in it, and a lesson for other parents. theatln.tc/pFuG3NFQ

every billionaire & tech mogul, they all want to be adored & celebrated without doing the things Dolly did with a fraction of the power & money. What she had, she gave away. I'm sure she was comfortable (& that's good!). But she just relentlessly helped. It's not that difficult. Love. Care. Help. 💚🌸

(1/3) With Dolly Parton's passing, I want to put good words on the wind for her. Feel free to quote reply with your own.
Dolly became the single largest donor for the Moderna COVID vaccine because of a chance encounter and friendship with a Vanderbilt researcher Dr. Naji Abumrad years earlier. She
