My introduction to Michael Shannon was his portrayal of Kim Fowley (their creepy manager)  in the Runaways movie. Since then, I’ve seen him in Boardwalk Empire and the George Jones mini-series. He’s even done a tour of REM’s Murmur album and Chronic Town EP with some of the REM guys joining him onstage. 

Kind of a tangent, but happy that my interest in Joan led me to his acting. One of the first songs I learned on electric guitar was her I Love Rock and Roll and I’ve become friends with one of the original Heartbreakers, ie. Eric Ambel (Del Lords, Yahoos, etc.). 

I kinda prefer the version from the Arrows.

That's an udder way of describing the Cowser HR. 

Cold as milk and smooth as silk!

Speaking of REM - the band was good friends with Dale Murphy in Atlanta.  I thought that was a funny  friendship

Suarez has pitched REALLY well tonight...id have the pen ready though...he's about done...close to 90 pitches..

A lot of loud and far contact though. He was quite lucky tonight.

And Buck and Mills have The Baseball Project, which have about four albums of baseball related songs. 

I got to introduce my kids (in our family band) to Mills in late ‘23 when we played in Athens. And I got to share a stage with him in a tribute to Big Star’s 3rd album when they played it in NC six years ago.

Stroman is out after 4 1/3. Tonkin came in with the bases loaded with one out and hit Springer. 3-1 Jays.

A Yankee pitcher hit a batter?  Say it isn't so.

Let's hope we get the good Cano tonight.

Yep.  The bass is obnoxiously forward in the mix.

Good walk for Ramon.  He looked horrible on his two swings and then worked a walk

[Moose Milligan]

All aboard the roller Canoster!

[Rbiggs2525]

Keep the ball down Cano.

Much to @Sports Guy’s dismay, the clock on Suarez apparently hasn’t struck midnight yet.

That's awesome.   Life's Rich Pageant was their best album,  by the way.
