2021-02-13 11:35:44 +0000 UTCEveryone should check out Self Defense Family especially their album Try Me inspired by the life of an 80s adult actress. Funnily they’ve called themselves the Grateful Dead of DIY Punk

2021-02-13 01:59:40 +0000 UTCSomething would be criminally wrong with this mix if it didn’t have a Nick Cave or Leonard Cohen track. Gotta love Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds as well as Grinderman

2021-02-13 01:57:53 +0000 UTCWOO HOO! Yes!!! Oh man, this is a real treat! Personally, I think you should’ve opened with Nilsson (shame on you!) And the Roland Kirk cover of “My Sheri”? So good! Also, great look, Matt, as Danny Devito! Romancing the Stone, though, is the best of the three flicks!

Veronica WK
2021-02-13 00:34:05 +0000 UTCRIP Sandman. One of the best live bands of that era.
Tim Heidecker
2021-02-13 00:32:29 +0000 UTCBonus points for Nick Cave, Matt! Shameless plug for my music podcast but it’s happenstance. We just happen to cover Nick Cave over 3 episodes this month. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/nick-cave-and-the-bad-seeds-retrospective-part-1-1979-1996/id1291787697?i=1000506576392
