Yes, my good luck song (Semisonic’s “Closing Time”) as a last call

No better way to chill out towards the end of a summer night than with Bob Seeger’s “Night Moves”
#RetroView
Like I’ve said, Amy Winehouse always makes me think of summer

I wanted to use a live version of “Dare” but there’s not one that wouldn’t require a lengthy explanation for Shaun Ryder’s live performances (For the curious: https://youtu.be/b3hzowjjjdc)

Debbie Harry at Coney Island (c. 1977)

nostr:npub1rg6qaga8m8rxp5l547t9vp743c7eq9pxdk8z3czqndc0w506wtcs0k6fn9 I go to sleep the natural way: full of enough prescription medication to knock me out deep for hours so I can wake up confused at 7am

This particular version of “Get Lucky” with Daft Punk, Nile Rodgers, Pharrell Williams and Stevie Wonder is from the REHEARSALS for their performance at the Grammys (https://youtu.be/xBJMr1v5Zuw)

I’ve never seen The Killers live without the crowd being at least this densely packed in.

A somewhat nostalgic nighttime playlist without some Pat Benatar? Not on my watch!

I feel that lyrically and general vibe-wise Bloc Party’s “Banquet”, PJ Harvey’s “A Place Called Home” and The Killers’ “When You Were Young” really fit that part of the night when things get kind of wistful
#RetroView
Yeah Yeah Yeahs always remind me of the summers I worked festival season as a music journalist. Long, hot days with great music
#RetroView
nostr:npub1rg6qaga8m8rxp5l547t9vp743c7eq9pxdk8z3czqndc0w506wtcs0k6fn9 I’ve seen that one… it’s a really gritty role for him
#RetroView
I really like the heat from Gary Clark Jr.’s music.. it always just feels like the kind of music you’d hear in a really good bar in the depths of summertime
#RetroView
And now for a little night driving music from The Doors
