What was Huck saying the other day? “It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your courage?” Something like that… maybe essence. Courage twice doesn’t even make sense.
Huckdoll was lifting a line from the most excellent Baths‘ song “Maximalist.” I am sure I blogged a cut from this kid before… BUT, today during this weekend’s adventure to Ditch Record with Madelyn, I happened to come across Baths’ record Cerulean. It was just what? $22.99. Still has the sticker on it, I haven’t dropped the needle. Had to have it. Which also reminds me… I gotta bug Smiths Pub to let me DJ another vinyl set on a Wednesday… if they’ll have me.

OK… took a break from this post to message Smiths, did you miss me?

The other gem I bought from Ditch is not a record at all, but rather a book. I was talking to Jeremy (hey! same name as me!) and my love of the Replacements. He recommended “The Replacements: All over but the shouting.”
I love books about war… and I love books about music. Bah, but the only issue is I am still working my way through “Our Band Could Be Your Life.” I hate getting two books I wanna read because sometimes I start the new one before the old one is done. Not this time, no sir… Imma read my books in due time, cover-to-cover like a grownup.
Please download some Baths as he is great (and download this one too).
Go with yourself.
