That was the first “new” album I heard by U2 after discovering them (and having my life changed musically) the year before. Amazing to see what man the boy has turned into.

Ok, fix is in, right? Chiefs devil magic / Pentagon made it happen - duh! Now just waiting for the Biden endorsement. Or was it T&T engagement? I’m so confused. Great game though. If it wasn’t staged. Was it? I think Taylor also turned Usher’s mic down.

Beautiful seeing Annie Lennox sing Nothing Compares 2 U in front of tributes to Sinéad O'Connor and Shane at #Grammys and when we realized it was Wendy & Lisa backing her I started losing it, only to have Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis on next behind jon batiste - Prince is with us, always.

Check it out - it’s U2 at The Sphere opening for Taylor Swift and her mic drop album announcement for The Tortured Poets Department coming out in April just now at #Grammys

Digging the #GRAMMYs broadcast tonight - Noah makes pop music awesome fun, and how cool was it to see Tracy Chapman back onstage? Here’s Olivia Rodrigo pre-blood smear doing Vampire.

You know you’ve made it when you are translated in Portuguese! Check out Brendan from @thenogoodcrowd interviewed in a Brazilian blog about the b-side of our 45 - Pioneer. Playlist “Além da BR” #117 – Sons do mundo que chegam até nós revistaartebrasileira.com.br/alem-da-br/pla…

Love this quote from Last Day Deaf blog about The No Good Crowd: 'One thing’s clear – their garage power pop banger with a psychedelic twist is a proclamation' The No Good Crowd - Some Kinda Gold lastdaydeaf.com/listening-now-… via Last Day Deaf

Careful - that could happen someday… but not today - it has to be when you least expect it!

gracias!

Made it in - let’s rock this morning show thing here WXPN

I’m subbing in for Kristen on the XPN Morning Show tomorrow and psyched to welcome Adrian from Black Pumas to take over the 9a hour!

It’s #MLK2024 and all day on WXPN were dropping songs of change, hope, dreams into the mix. I’m filling in for Kristen Kurtis and Bob Bumbera if you need a soundtrack or some company this morning.

Alright! My new band The No Good Crowd getting a shoutout / recommendation for our video from Freim TV - a music publication out of Mexico City. Gracias Freim TV! (Vid link in their post)

Rocking the mic between the picks today 10-2 on WXPN subbing for Some Velvet Blog - and here’s a tease: get ready for a lot of Lucinda - she landed 4 songs in my 4 hours (including one written by her but sung by another longtime XPN fave). Let’s hang out!

Best thing (in addition to listening!) about the WXPN #XPNCountdown - real-time stat updates! Big props to our own Brian Divver for putting this together. See what artists have most songs, airtime, what decade and genres are represented etc!
