Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE CLASH!

One day New Jersey, Governor Unkie Phil is gonna get this whole legal weed thing together. Combustible refreshments will be coming to a dispensary near you.

Until then everyone is a narc.

The Clash tried teaching us this way back when. Good lads, The Clash. Julie's not your friend. Julie needs stitches. 'Julie's Been Working for the Drug Squad' wrapping things up tonight. That smart piano is being played by Allen Lanier of Blue Oyster Cult.

Lucky us! One night only, tonight, White Eagle Hall -- Nick Lowe's Quality Rock & Roll Revue Featuring Los Straitjackets!

You simply can't do any better than having Nick Lowe performing a few blocks from your house Jersey City and tonight that's exactly what's going to happen. White Eagle Hall hosts Nick Lowe's Quality Rock & Roll Revue Featuring Los Straitjackets and what a great night of music it'll be.

Probably be a Nick Lowe song on the Music Series tonight in celebration...

Follow this handy link to find one near you and make sure you check up on the elderly and vulnerable adults on days like these and bring those pets inside and give them access to plenty of water.

Late night open thread

Time for Jersey City, After Dark

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE FACES!

Johnny supposes that if you're Rod Stewart and you're gonna tell the tale of taking a groupie to bed for a one-night stand  you should probably let Ron Wood lay down some of the guitar work on that. You know, like ya do.

'Stay With Me' kicking off tonight's festivities.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with LIZ PHAIR!

Johnny had such a crush on Liz Phair during her whitechocolatespaceegg era. He used to spin that disc and others on his Discman plugged into the cassette slot in the old Chevy Lumina driving back and forth from Ypsilanti to Maumee Ohio every day for work. Johnny would like to dedicate this one to US-23.

'Polyester Bride' all up in your ears.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with U2!

All you hear is the live version of this song. It's become canon. Johnny prefers the studio version. Guess whose blog this is...

U2 helping you skedaddle into this glorious June evening with 'Bullet the Blue Sky'

Rock on Edge.

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with SNIFF 'N' THE TEARS!

Another one of those songs you haven't heard in many moons and in this case maybe many many moons. Johnny has always simply loved this song since it broke back in the 70's (The 1970's). If you are looking for some sharp as hell guitar work this song is for you bunky. This here is the kind of song that makes you want to go get into your car, drive for a while and stop somewhere and fight.

But don't do that.

Sniff 'n' the Tears with the timeless 'Driver's Seat'
