These guys are an interesting little story I'd been unawares of. Regardless, here's some groovy music for your Sunday.

Henry Chadwick is often considered the father of baseball. He wrote the first rule book, created the box score, and was the first to keep track of singles, doubles, triples, and home runs.

This is not a great clip of these wild, wild Nashville dudes. I saw them open for Jeff The Brotherhood last night, and was absolutely blown away. Their initial CD, Can I Live is out, and dirt cheap (and available on the new fad-tech cassette tape format). Support these guys, and if they're in town near you go and see them. Oh, and they're offering a free download at their band camp page.

My major issue for most of the last two decades in the MLB playoffs is the sameness of the teams. A Baltimore-Kansas City ALCS would do nicely.
Full day of postseason baseball!
11:00 AM: Tigers at Orioles
2:00 PM: Giants at Nationals
5:30 PM: Cardinals at Dodgers
8:00 PM: Royals at Angels
One of my favorite vocalists, who also went by the name "Daddy Gee" on some records and sounded like Massive Attack's Daddy G chopped & screwed. Here's his Prince cover with Kode9, the first release on Hyperdub.

Jim Joyce has been a major league umpire since 1989.
We would also like to wish a very happy birthday to spookymilk.
It's my birthday. Gift me in the form of donations to my Relay for Life walk this weekend!
Even if you can't, thanks to all of you, as always, for being my brothers away from my brothers.
Some Canadian craziness to warm you up for your weekend.
