Nothing Much Happened Today.

Yep. It happened.

“Colorado Springs Police say a patient behaving badly caused chaos in the emergency room of a northeast side hospital Monday evening (8/17/15).

The incident happened at around 6 p.m at St. Francis Medical Center, near the intersection of N. Powers Blvd. and E. Woodmen Rd. Police say Johnny Solis, 32, was being treated in the emergency room when he began acting up. They say he ‘menaced’ several members of the medical staff as well as several security guards with a metal T-Bar. They say he also knocked out several first floor ceiling tiles and then climbed into the rafters above the ER.

Police say Solis damaged plumbing and electrical systems while he was in the rafters.”

Saturday Matinee – A.I. Family Guy Pizza, Hot Club de Piracicaba, Jimmie Vaughan, and Robert Randolph & The Family Band

When you ask A.I. to create a Family Guy pizza commercial you get this.

Hot Club de Piracicaba performs Paganini in Django style.

Guitar great Jimmie Vaughan is still pickin’ the blues at 72.
At 04:12 he says it’s an Eddie Taylor song, but a 1952 Meteor Records 78rpm issue credits Elmore James & James Taub as the writers.

Robert Randolph and The Family Band
“In his adolescent years before being discovered by the secular community, [Randolph] was almost completely unaware of non-religious music. He went on exclaim in an interview that ‘I grew up and saw a lot of older guys playing lap steels and pedal-steel guitars in my church. I had never heard of the Allman Brothers, or even Buddy Guy or Muddy Waters.’ “ [Wiki}

And I had never heard the term sacred steel before today. Have a great weekend, see you back here tomorrow. Bring your laundry.
