Hey, next week I'm going on tour! Come see me in Chicago, Milwaukee and Madison. The Upper Heartland Tour! I'll be with @joshterry.bsky.socialin Chicago and @bymattwild.bsky.social in Milwaukee. Come thru!
A sentence I was destined to write: I'll be on TMJ4's What's Brewing Wisconsin today at 3 p.m. talking about Milwaukee Record's upcoming Weird Al Week. Don't change the channel! Don't touch that dial!
Listening to postseason Brewers radio on the bus after a weird-ass night of co-hosting a live radio show and then doing some random undercover reporting/drinking, as god intended
This show is fantastic. Don't miss it! (It's killing me that I WILL miss it because it's the same night at Weird Al.)
It is happening again. Perhaps for the final time.
Should I see DIGGER or PRIMETIME? Both playing in about 15 minutes.
The Super Extra Super Deluxe 60th Anniversary edition of RUBBER SOUL (out today) confirms my suspicions that this is a very, very good record
In the thick of one of those 24-hour periods where an emergency cal to AAA is actually kind of pleasant
When I first started going to the Landmark 8,000 years ago there was always a random old guy who played pinball and drank High Life and wore a jean jacket and a Stormy Kromer cap and now I’m 100% that guy
Night 2. They’re playing LINCOLN. May have cried in the nosebleeds during “They’ll Need A Crane.”
Shout-out to Your Office, where cigarettes are listed in the sides
No one in the world ever gets what they want…but sometimes you get to meet your favorite band of all time, and that is beautiful.
Tomorrow morning! Free! Come out and hear what some accomplished media professionals have to say about AI! I'll also be there!
Let’s talk human creativity in the age of AI at CreativeMornings, September 18
“This month, as we explore CURRENT, we’re asking: what happens to human interest when machines can write the story too?”

I talked to Milwaukee greats The Fatty Acids about their reunion shows this weekend at Linneman's. Tomorrow: Feeling weird about being around so long that you extensively covered a band in its early years and are now covering its reunion 10 years later.
The glorious, not-so-messy return of The Fatty Acids
After nearly a decade away, The Fatty Acids reunite this weekend for a pair of shows at Linneman’s.

What's the fuzzy little wireless mic everyone uses for stuff nowadays? Asking because I need one
Ashamed to say I’ve never seen LAWRENCE OF ARABIA. Happy to say I’m seeing it for the first time in 70mm at Milwaukee’s gorgeous Oriental Theatre
