Here I Stand, Tongue In Hand

Sunrise Ocean BenderHere I Stand, Tongue In Hand

Oooooh, a recent tornado watch in Richmond …

That get you shaking in your boots? Of course not, Richmond. And you know why? Because you're Americans: hearty, proud, vigorous … Let us celebrate that by celebrating some truly great Americans. Great Americans who are national treasures, not pointless slogans and slurs. Not knee-jerk symbolism or passing fad.

Let's all listen together, big and small … Irata, Ween, Butthole Surfers, a veritable hat-trick by Todd Parker , Lotion, David Max, The Flaming Lips, Maserati and much more … 

Who's gonna clean up this mess? You, the rest of the world? Not in the America I come from. We're card carrying members of the universe … so let's hear it for the globe-spanning dignitaries who truly do render the U.N. ineffectual:  Mugstar , The Bevis Frond, Mott the Hoople, Sula Bassana, Thin Lizzy and many more in the wings … along with your valis Pick of the Week: Sunrise Ocean Bender favorite, Brace/Choir {check the interview Brace/Choir did for us just a bit back … here} … and maybe some young upstart going by the handle John Lennon. 

You never know.
