For the record, North America, Europe doesn't put its clocks forward until the 29th.

Isn't the 8th super early???

Holy crap! Is North America on Daylight Savings Time as of TOMORROW???

I have to adjust my phone alarms!

"One-Hit Wonders at the BBC" is on the telly right now and they just played John Freaking Mellencamp and now they're playing John Freaking Denver???

Okay, they're played the Divinyls now. That makes more sense.

I had to Google cos I had no idea was "Game" was! Damned keyboards... 😋

A Dutch classic. 😍

Yep.

And they're usually the same ones who were desperate to grow up before everyone else. They drank first, tried drugs first, had sex first, got married first...grew older first...

This is Albie. He was so touched by his family singing happy birthday in his native language that he didn't notice the cupcakes with his face on them. 13/10 hbd Albie #SeniorPupSaturday (TT: _sallyv)

"Itschycoo" Park by the Small Faces, Dutch release.

The Small Faces single I found in our neighbourhood record store this afternoon has a bit of a lisp. 😋

Ah, okay. Still debating. Pricey travelling from Rotterdam.

Another day, another 40-something saying, "It's never too late! I just got a deal & I've been querying for 15 years!"

This is NOT inspiring. This is anxiety-inducing. Stop iiiiiiit.

Is this a two-day thing or one evening?

Young ladies listening to a vintage radio

(Mar. 7/26) Hi - If you’d be up for some swell vintage music to start yer day off, my radio programme Zero To Fifty streams on canoefm.com from 7-8 a.m. Eastern Time. I play tunes from 1900-1950, including a spotlight on early Canadian musicians 🇨🇦. Crank up the wireless & enjoy!

Day 7: Song by a band/artist whose name starts with G

Galaxy-Lin - Long Hot Summer

Band formed by ex-Shocking Blue guitarist/songwriter Robbie van Leeuwen, based on the mandolin, which, he was sure, would replace the guitar.

Please Hate Me: Social Media For Writers

Please do check us out! We just dropped a new episode today about the evils and necessities of social media but, um, we still need to do a promo post for it here. But in the interim: open.spotify.com/episode/4pMc...

FOMO. Sometimes I get it. Then I listen to the @badlitfriends.bsky.social podcast and they tell me all I need to know.

Dear YouTube Creators,

If everything trivial or easily verified in a simple Google search "shocks" you or provokes extreme emotional responses, perhaps have a lie-down. Or I can offer you a hug. But I'm not clicking on your damned video.

Not missing a thing over a year after I flounced away then.

Siiiigh. Things I miss living on the wrong side of the pond.

Op 6 maart 1975 was er op televisie weer een uitzending van the Eddy Go Round Show met optredens van Duane Eddy, Marjan Schatteleyn, Abba, Frank Ifield en the Hollies met ‘Sandy’ (4th of July, Asbury Park). youtu.be/0cT9kOgHJ8Q?...

Happy Friday!
