These Days: Saturday, June 25th, 2015
Live: Apparently people don’t get out much in LA -not one but two riots occurred as fans tried to get into a free Future concert. Future?? “Reports said some 700 fans lined up outside the club, which has a capacity of 500, with the hopes of nabbing a wristband for free admittance into the show. Scores of fans spilled out into the street and blocked traffic, prompting L.A. sheriff’s to shut down a portion of the Sunset Strip at around 3 p.m. They moved it to the House Of Blues, and that was also cancelled. Wait a second… DS2 Future???
Recorded: I’ve been listening to Husker Du’s Zen Arcade all day and it sure sounds awesome after all these years, “Pride” sounds like it coulda come off the new Titus album.
Sports: Just as you are ready to count em out Mets complete trade with Braves for Juan Uribe and Kelly Johnson, three games out of first you get the logic.
News(ish): WWE CEO Vince McMahon once used N-word in awkward comedy routine with wrestler Booker T -will the last white person to use the N word please turn off the lights on their way out.
The Empire Strikes Back: Turkish jets struck camps belonging to Kurdish militants in northern Iraq, authorities said Saturday, the first strikes since a peace deal was announced in 2013, and again bombed Islamic State positions in Syria…. it sure seems to me that ISIS are making the same mistake Bonaparte and Hitler made before them: fighting on too many fronts. If there was any form of concerted effort, they should be wiped out in around a week
