Bonus #localangle: The Suburbs played before The Damned at a show in New York in 1986. City Pages reported: “Chan Poling…said that the audience was eventually “won over,” kind of. “At least we didn’t get killed,” said Mr. Poling. “We came away from the thing alive.””

That is an excellent #localangle #rockfacts!

All I can offer in thanks is this measure of the levelness of Fascher’s hometown with the Fab Four/Five’s …

@chrissteller.bsky.social a sorta #localangle: Fascher’s one recorded performance with the Beatles is “Hallelujah I Love Her So“; while Ray Charles wrote it, I believe the Beatles’ version was inspired by Eddie Cochran’s cover

The killer EMT was played by Nathan Anderson, a Duluth native.

Patrick Stewart once starred in a play at Minneapolis' Guthrie Theater. “It was one of the best stage experiences I’ve ever had," he said.

The actor, who died Wednesday, loved the play. Minnesota weather? Not so much.

If I told you there was an elected executive who was
1) cutting the budget of social services
2) lessening the capacity of election staff
3) unwilling to negotiate on spending in other gov branches
4) refusing to let department leaders and staff testify before the legislative branch

Though in the #LocalAngle department, Wes from PoM did get pulled over for drunk driving through Renville County where he blew somewhere in the Tommy Kramer range for his BAC

He's hoping to get going on restoring a second machine which has a bad drum memory (actually swapped from the other one), so it will involve re-manufacturing the magnetic coating. #localangle: It likely used 3M oxide material, so people with historical knowledge from 3M/Imation may be able to help

You guys, William Demarest (Uncle Charlie on My Three Sons, and much much more) was born in Saint Paul.
Family moved to New Jersey when he was a baby, but still #LocalAngle
Last night I watched a 1978 Carson show with Buddy Hackett, a drunk Peter O'Toole during the shoot of "The Stunt Man," William Demarest playing the cello, and Victor Buono reading his poetry. Folks, this used to be a country.

Dustin Byfuglien held court with media for 10 minutes just now and didn’t disappoint.

Some absolute gems.

On why he stayed with #NHLJets so long?

“Well, all my stuff was here.”

He got very emotional at times, too. This alumni homecoming means a lot.
