Yes, as was Ruben Gonzalez (who was the first to pass away, not long after that tour), Compay Segundo, and Omara Portuondo. They were the core of the bigger names. I saw that show at a really nice theater in SoCal from the 3rd row. Still one of my favorite live shows ever. They recently...

Oof. Heavy heavy. One thing that bugs me sometimes with this series is that they can be a bit obvious in telling the viewers how they should be feeling. In this case I really didn’t need the sappy score playing in the background as they discovered the camp. I thought it would’ve been more...

I find Oasis and Foo Fighters painfully boring to listen to. Like, bad bad.

Pearl Jam Radiohead Pavement Neutral Milk Hotel Rage or Weezer for the last spot Morphine and Super Furry Animals get an honorable mention

Yeah that’s all fine but a guy who averaged 18 and 10 in the G league with his percentages can’t reasonably be dismissed as having “nowhere near the skills” to play in the NBA.

Quite a grand proclamation against a guy who can board with anyone anywhere, and has boosted his 3-point range (36%) and FTs (79%). I watched a few of his G league games and he has definitely come along. Slow feet of course so he’ll never be a great defender, but it would not be far fetched...

Started watching Band of Brothers earlier this week and only have four left. Which for me, qualifies as bingeing. I’m not sure it’s quite living up to the expectations but it’s obviously very high quality. Character development is lacking for me and spread too thin, but it’s been great as a...

Been meaning to check this out. I like Seth. The thing I love most about Scorsese is how he is so accessible, transparent, earnest, and doesn’t take himself too seriously. Very minimal ego for such a modern legend, and truly is just a movie lover. A bit like Spielberg in that sense.

Barcade in NYC has been around at least 15 years and expanded to several other locations and states. Always busy. They seem to be doing fine.

The guy means “fair-weather” fans and is instead using “bandwagon” fans too liberally. It’s semantics. Get over it.

Yeah was pretty obvious he misspoke and essentially meant to say 2-5.

Watched this one over the weekend outdoors with a big crowd on the beach in Coney Island. Which if you know the movie, is a pretty damn cool way to watch it.

Yes. Getting caught up in the backstory details of how they arrived at that situation is not what the movie was aiming for. It would’ve been too easy for viewers to choose who their good guys were and who their bad guys were, depending on political persuasion. The point was to be dropped into...

Very Steve Jobs.

Racism and bigotry.
