Saturday Matinee – Aaron Hughes’ Five Cents, The Meteors & The Interrupters
Aaron Hughes‘ impressive hand-drawn animation Five Cents:
“Drawn by hand on thousands of market data pages from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times with ink, white-out, gouache paint, gold leaf and other materials.”
[h/t Mme. Jujujive].
Formed in South London in 1980, The Meteors are considered the first verifiable psychobilly band (and the second band to use the term).
The Interrupters: Aimee Interrupter & the Bivona brothers always look like they’re having fun, probably because they are.
That’s all for now. Be back here tomorrow and we’ll make up stuff.

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 – Smooth Hound Smith, Justin Johnson & Cam Cole
Smooth Hound Smith were an Americana duo comprised of Zack Smith and Caitlin Doyle-Smith; their sound reminds me of Dan Hicks & The Hot Licks. After ten years of performing and recording, they closed up shop during The Great Covid Lockdown. Apparently Z.G. Smith is now back in business.
Justin Johnson‘s unusual cover of Howlin’ Wolf fits my mood.
Cam Cole, busker, bluesman, rocker, recording artist, and “the most impressive one-man band you will ever see” has a new EP out, but this one is still my favorite.
Porch time is on schedule for tomorrow, so we’ll see you there.
