and everyone who cares, is looking forward to the Trump Harris encounter. Whatever happens, Kamala will be deemed by the shit stream media to have ‘won’ because Trump is a felon and a racist and a rapist and eats pizza with a fork. It’s all entirely predictable. I don’t wanna talk about it. I did watch some music TV on the weekend. Specifically the BBC’s Radio 2 in the Park, I think it was called. Some of it was garbage, some of it was pretty good, like the Pet Shop Boys, who started out alone on stage wearing these ridiculous head pieces, and finished up with a full band who played the shit out of all their hits, and very well too.
Their light show was great also. Very innovative and clever. It all sounds a bit samey after a while, but I didn’t feel the need to switch it off at any time. My only gripe was that they didn’t play “On Social Media”. I’ll post it at the bottom so you’ll know what I’m talking about.
Sting looks like he works out a lot.
The other highlight was Sting, who performed with a guitarist and drummer. It was the classic Police three piece line up. Kids, you really need to know what you’re doing with this kind of bare bones group. You can’t run and there’s nowhere to hide. It was essentially flawless from start to finish. Sting’s vocals tend to stray into Jamaica a bit, but that’s what he’s been doing forever. Maybe he’s part Jamaican, what do I know?
Yesterday afternoon I watched Kim Wilde’s performance which was kind of scary. Was she ever actually capable of singing in tune, I wondered. Out of every 8 notes she likely hit the right one once, and even that may have been accidental. I don’t know. Some people make a living out of not being able to sing properly, but I’d rather not mention any names. (I’m tempted but I won’t)
Kimmy. She’s a legend, and don’t you forget it.
That’s it. I went to take my truck to the auto shop for its yearly inspection yesterday morning, but when I started it up, it had no brakes. I don’t know where they went, but I called AAA and they sent a dude post haste with a truck to take it there to get fixed. I like to repair my own vehicles, but I’m not fucking with the brakes. There was a slight element of excitement when he was winching it on to the truck bed as the weight of my truck started to levitate the front of his truck into the air. He quickly adjusted the leveling bar underneath and disaster was averted. It would have made a great Tiktok video though.
