Finds at the market. Ole eagle eye neofobia spotted these in a bucket off to the side of a table. We ended up paying $15 and both are in working order. A Revere Eye-Matic Ca-4 8MM camera A Norelco SC - 7759 electric razor.
Both from the mid 50’as and in working order. #vintage



Hard to believe it’s been 20 Years since Numero Group released Eccentric Soul: Mighty Mike Lenaburg exploring the funky underside of Pheonix AZ circa 1967-1980. I love that we have creative people out there doing creative things with other groups celebrating it. #funk #soul #numerogroup


some trainspotting from the south side market on Ashland in Chicago. Music: Swearing at Motorists - No More James Dean #trainspotting #swearingatmotorists
One of my favorite things about being in Chicago is standing in line for a really great taco in a Grocery store aisle. I also miss Dunkin Donuts, and Giordano’s Pizza. Forgive the less than glamorous shots but feel the love intended.



Love getting home from a trip to find a record I ordered weeks ago has arrived. Thanks to Bandcamp I was listening to the digital download via Plexamp for my whole trip. This is a lovely refreshing album. #vinyl #swapmeet #winspear #bandcamp #plexamp



The music for today’s flight is the estimable Please Inform the Captain that this is a Hijack!
A relaxing escort through the bumpy skies with a thought spared to all the complexity of living in the modern world while attempting to do as little harm to others as possible.

Chicago trip is in the books. On the plane in the last row by myself, excited to be back in the PNW. One thing I always try to do is hit up the south side market. We always find something to take home. Plus we always get a chance to see the trains there too. Win/win



crate digging in chicago’s Out of the Past Records! The team there are amazingly kind and allowed me to get really dirty digging. You can smell this photo btw and you are correct. Finds posted later.
20 years ago an awesome SXE band dropped “the Myspace Song”…it still makes me smile.
I know that websites don’t kill but sometimes they will sometimes they will…..break hearts ….internet grass is always greener…
This is a gentle reminder for y’all to STAY POSI

My son was discussing his 7th grade reading of The Outsiders. I took the opportunity to name today “International NJ Hardcore Day" and introduce him to some Lifetime.
They never get old and may we never age either.

pacing the sun in the ole squareback takes a small amount of faith. But it doesn’t hurt to have the mono blaster singing sweetly with the Twisted Teens - When we first met.
Kohl’s is really going hard with a orange velour skull front and center, but Target is absolutely wil’in out with a whole ass section for female incontinence. (no corresponding male section….f’n patriarchy in action.)
Middle age, middle class, white man evening shopping. I know what you want.
Surprising to no one I really enjoy Mat over at www.youtube.com/@Techmoan
He has a new video about his personal stereo dropping wide soon. I went out and picked up boombox i had many moons ago as well.
A JVC PC-X100. It still sounds amazing and at $20 who can argue?

Went down to see the Stonehenge replica monument in Maryhill. Samuel Hill, working from the interpretation that the original Stonehenge was used to sacrifice humans to the god of war, thought it a fitting tribute to those killed in WWI. We still seem to be sacrificing to the gods of war.




Having a lovely discussion about music yesterday and was reminded of Killing an Arab and by extension Camus’ The Stranger. Worth a revisit. The only meaning to being human is to be…HUMAN. The rest of the nonsense is window dressing. Be kind and be you.
