As you may or may not know, i live in Canada, and for some reason KSHE doesn't stream their audio to here. I have to connect via a VPN in order to spoof an American address, and this week, according to whatismyipaddress.com. i was listening from Atlanta, Georgia, again.
Quotation of the week: Simon Pegg ~ Being a geek means never having to play it cool about how much you like something.
Ahh, Spriggsblog, one of the few blogs in the world that has fewer readers than Donald Trump's! Unlike that notoriously thin-skinned orange accident and Insurrectionist-In-Chief, though, we're not shutting ours down (pumps fist in air à la Josh Hawley). (Ooops, bad example....)
This week's show gets a grade of “A+”, but only because of the Dan Fogelberg (and it wasn't even one of his greatest). Otherwise it may just barely have scraped by with a “B+”. There was some wonderful music, certainly, and absolutely nothing that made me want to flee the room and go and scrub the toilet, several nice surprises, but very little that had me dancing / head bangin' / melting in my chair. Highlights: Poco, Arlo Guthrie, Pete Townshend and Mama's Pride.
