Live: Like everybody over a certain age who is obsessed with rock and roll, this was all about the Replacements who failed to disappoint with a career spanning 100 minute set of Mats song. Lorde was pretty damn good as well. Meanwhile, Cat Stevens forced us to pre buy his album or miss out on the presale code.
Recorded: Banks was a revelation and Chris Brown wasn’t but both came up with killer album, though Brown, the poster boy for woman beating picked the wrong week to do it in.
Sports: Wait a second, a sport so violent players die years before their time from massive head trauma is favored by homicidal maniacs? How is this possible? Meanwhile, speed demon bicyclist are roaring through Central Park at a terrifying 30 to 40 miles per hour, ignoring all traffic laws and responsible for two deaths in three days.
Politics: One day you’re gonna wake up and discover you have Iran lecturing the US on the need for American boots on the ground in Syria. The US want to train the rebels to beat both Assad and ISIS, though at this point in the game nations, I wonder if you can name one leadership change that has worked to the US’s benefit. Egypt?
