Hey TDK. Wilco was from Canvey Island, which is a wonderful and idiosyncratic place, featuring a massive oil refinery, off the coast of Essex. There's a great moment in the documentary about the band, Oil City Confidential, where he says, "When I grew up I really loved the blues and I always wanted to live in a shack on the Delta. Then, one day, I looked around and realised, Hey I DO live in a shack on Delta!"

Last live band I saw pre-lockdown was the Porchistas at Monty (the night I met Handy and Kate). The last live-music only show I attended was Anderson Council, 3/7 at Pino's, Highland Park.

I need to check out Wonderful again. I remember 1985 being a year for what I thought at the time as being really lackluster Punk records, but upon listening to some of them today, they don't sound quite as bad as I remember.

I can't believe Kate's missing this set for a work call!

Def Leppard is one of her karaoke standards, but she does Crue plenty. And there's an Ozzy/Lita Ford duet that she sings whenever she can find a Lita!

When she read The Dirt, she really would not put it down. I'd turn around and she'd have it out at dinner, around the camp fire ...
