Saturday Matinee – The Skids, Linkin Bridge & Cinco De Mayo Madrid Flash Mob
The Skids “Into The Valley” [via]. Nice Ramones influence.
Today is the start of The 2018 Kentucky Derby, and yes, it has a themesong.
Linkin Bridge‘s “My Old Kentucky Home” is killer.
Oh, and Cinco De Mayo has everything to do with selling beer in the US and nothing to do with Mexican Independence Day.
This is kinda cool. Mariachi flash mob showed up in Madrid, but Mariachis originated in Mexico not Spain. Go figure.
Have a great weekend. folks, see you back here tomorrow.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day Saturday Matinee- PSA, Yola Singer, Dervish & The Pogues
St. Patrick’s Day
Try not to puke in front of children.

Map and Yola song found here. Northern Ireland hadn’t been invented yet.
Dervish is awesome.
What’s St. Patrick’s Day without a tribute to the Pogues? Contrary to popular belief, frontman Shane MacGowan is not dead.
I jumped the 3rd vid to one of my favorites, Young Ned Of The Hill [full concert starts here]. It’s a traditional Irish song about one Éamonn an Chnoic. Legend says he became an outlaw after shooting a tax collector dead during a quarrel over the confiscation of a poor woman’s cow.
Have a great weekend, folks. See you back here soon.

Saturday Matinee – Human Fountains, The Band and The Black Crowes.
Might have been better with four NFL cheerleaders in skimpy wet chamois skins, but that’s just my non-judgemental politically correct sexist micoagressional opinion [via].
That’s one of the best songs by one of the best bands ever.
That’s one of the best covers of one of the best songs by one of the best bands ever.
Have a great weekend, folks, and remember that President’s Day is a construct designed to minimize the historical importance of both George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, two of the greatest and most influential Presidents in the history of the United States of America.

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Always Remember which political party supported slavery, promoted racism and segregation, and which political party successfully fought against it.
Some things never change.
