The show notes are as follows:
It is the day after Mother’s Day, and I talk about my mother, including the book she’s writing about living in Greece. I sold books on Saturday in Goliad, Texas, in the shade of the Hanging Tree.
I talk about the bootlegs I used to buy for thirty bucks each in Seattle. The impetus for this episode is a post I put on Facebook about two things men love and women hate. Do you agree?
I talk about John Lennon’s primal screaming, his lost weekend with Harry Nilsson, and the screaming contest the two had that blew out one of their throats forever.
I talk about the chart that came out ranking the relative literacy of rappers and how Jethro Tull would be far to the right of all those guys. Is Jethro Tull really breaking up?
I tell you a foolproof method for winning concert tickets on the radio. I almost won a wine tasting with Ian Anderson, but I thought the question was a trick. I knew where Freddie Mercury was born, though, so I impressed the deejay.
I hope you enjoy this episode and thanks for listening!
