A friend of mine is on the outlaw cruise and everyone is flabbergasted by the death of Mojo Nixon. Tuesday night, after playing a killer set at midnight, he went to his room and died. I guess last night they did a great event where Los Straitjackets played Nick Lowe karaoke with special guests.
Setlist
Los Straitjackets - breaking glass
Chuck Mead - so it goes
Jim Lauderdale - shting shtang
Nikki Lane- when I write the book
Rosie Flores - cruel
Los Straitjackets. ???
Bill Davis Dash - half a boy
Jesse Dayton - lately I’ve let things slide
Jason Ringenberg - bride
Jeremy Tepper and Chuck Mead: heart of the city ( Would have been Mojo)

Per Snopes: "Rumors of the havoc wreaked by widespread simultaneous toilet flushing after popular broadcast events have been spread for decades, dating as far back as the Amos 'n' Andy radio program of the 1930s. All such rumors are overblown: toilet use during breaks in large-audience programs can certainly be much higher than average, but so far never to the point of causing serious damage to a large municipal sewage system."

Mojo: I was on tour with a band, as engineer. We played a festival in AZ. I think? Mojo was on the bill. Mojo and Skid were on, and basically nobody was watching. Except for me and three kids, about 8 years old. For some reason, the festival was giving out small Halloween type candy. The kids decided it would be a great idea to start pelting Mojo with Snickers and Milkyways. One got Mojo right between the eyes, and he jumped off a stage probably 15 feet off the ground, and started chasing after the kids, mid-song for what seemed like ten minutes. You should have seen the terror in the eyes of those kids. I might never have laughed so hard.

...but there's that bit in The Who doc 'Amazing Journey' - & some Drummer fellow (name?) analyses it as
...Moon is throwing everything Up - while Townshend is throwing everything Down.
Daltrey illustrates - by playing only the Vocal & the Drum tracks - how Moon is right along with the Lyric & the Voice.
Has been posited Moon gets Inside a Song - & blows it apart from in there...
