If anyone cares: Birthday 61 has come and gone.
I've had better. But I've also had worse.
I was fully kneaded and polished with hot stones and even hotter oil by a skilled massage technician who knew less than 20 words of English.
I filled some long-gaping holes in my ELP and Moody Blues libraries.
There were lapdances aplenty. And much Newcastle Brown Ale.
I also met the best BBQ Cheesesteak sandwich I've ever tasted.
And dammit, I fell in love again. Shit. SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!! SHIT!!!

What occurred December 22th, 2016?
Plus: More peppermint-fueled prog rock, metal, comedy and classic rock obscura! GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!
I've previously mentioned that I will be closing down the VHUS Pod-O-Matic page at the end of the current cycle of repeats - unfortunately never to return.
And I now have a firm date for that event:
November 11th, 2019
In order to make that schedule work, we'll be boosting the number of repeat episodes per bi-weekly-window. (Bandwidth WILL be limited.)
Our final wad of VHUS Encores will consist of our 3 Halloween-ish episodes (20, 46 & 61) making their final bow on or near October 17th.
We knew this day was coming. I wanted to bring this MoFo back - REALLY - but there's WAY TOO much real life in my equation right now.
Watch this space.
