What a delight to have our pal musician Will Oldham (aka Bonnie "Prince" Billy) return to celebrate the release of his new album "The Purple Bird." Topics covered included the Office Hours remix of Will's single “Turned To Dust (Rolling On)," Jesus Christ Superstar, Charlie Daniels Christian music, and the rock band Deep Purple. Then we addressed a bone pick, and watched a kid get bonked on the head in Montana.
PLUS, Doug's United Names of America slideshow, Vic's new guy, a viewer su...

Greetings from Snowy Montana! We're a few miles west of Missoula where we'll park for the day, then drive overnight to the other side of Montana and spend the day in Glendive, Montana. 2 full days with very little to do. I don't know what the temp is outside but it looks just plain bitter.
Last few days have been a real dream! Despite concerns about the late night sex party happening at the club after our Vancouver show, the night went great! Great sounding room, and the set and playi...

Good morning from the tip of Washington state, on our way into Canada and bye bye to USA for 24 hours.
OK now we're rolling! We had a great show in Portland last with the proper revolutionary show flow in effect and a packed house... It was so fun. Kyle joined us and fit in right away with the band and the crew... his set was so funny, and I came out and we goofed around for a bit. The show had a fair amount of goofs and looseness that I hope I can hold onto for a while.
We spen...

Good morning from Medford Oregon! our bus is parked outside of a hotel after an overnight drive from San Francisco. I think I'll do these as "Parts" as opposed to days. Days seem to get confusing for me!
Last night was our first show of the tour but it actually kicked off the night before as we loaded up the bus at JPs and drove up from LA, narrowly avoiding the 5-5 closure due to yet another fire north of the city!
First nights on the bus are hard. I'm in the back which is a l...

We said bon voyage to Tim and Eliana Athayde before they sailed off on tour, Eliana graced us with the gift of song from her band Jacaranda performing "Jon the Baptist," and Tim revealed a new acquisition at the compound. Of course we got into America 2.0 under our new/old totally normal president Trump and his totally normal inauguration activity including his sword dance/cake cutting, his wife Melania's totally normal hat, and Billy Ray Cyrus stinking it up on stage.

I recently busted out my VHS deck to watch these awesome horror movie shorts that my friends Gabe and Alex made. They were really fun and they brought me back to the early 90s when I was in college making movies on VHS. So since my deck was all plugged in, I dug through my basement bins and had a watch party.
One tape I put on was Space Station. It's the cable access show I made while livi...

Hey friends it was great to back on the air and laughing with you all for a few hours the other night.
Made it back home from Palm Springs yesterday afternoon. The sky was blue but you could feel the poor air quality after a little while outside... Back to the masks for a while! Lots of debris and a few large branches down, but no damage so we're feeling extremely grateful and lucky. Still nervously watching the wind forecast, but hoping and expecting the best.

Good morning! Happy 2025. I hope you guys all had a nice New Year's break. Matt and I rented a big mansion for just the two of us to ring in the new year. It had a pretty nice hot tub and a big screen TV, where we watched Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen do their thing in Times Square. It was way too much house for just the two of us and I think we should've just stayed home. Matt strongly disagrees.
I wanted to take a moment and talk about my friend Jeff who suddenly passed away Friday. ...

As the year that was 2024 winds down, with all its hellish moments and personal setbacks, I’ve planned a positive, forward-looking sendoff; Attending a New Year’s Eve concert by Florida’s very own maker-of-smiles KC & The Sunshine Band. Before you say “Disco ain’t cool, Vic,” I’ll tell you that it is. Harry Wayne Casey (KC) started out in the early 70s with a backing band that was funky as hell and quite cool actually. Check out this performance/track from 1974...

Good morning friends. Hope you're having a nice holiday break or at least taking some time with friends and/or family or family who are friends. Before I begin my year in review, a quick note on my trip to the movies yesterday.
I had a few hours to kill, and despite my resistance to the trailers, I decided to go see "A Complete Unknown." I had head some positive things from a few trusted sources so I was optimistic, but skeptical. I went to one of those "6 Bag Cinemas" type theaters w...

Good horning! I put together 15 OHL games for you and your family to enjoy this holiday season. Just click on a .pdf and you should be able to tab through the images by pressing the right ➡️ key.
