We’re Weekenders! We’ve Got ‘Color My World,’ Paul Simon and Queen On Tap! It’s Saturday, October 19, 2024

Woke up this morning to a headline that Salem, Massachusetts has had 666K visitors so far this Halloween, a record number. I hope there are more coming. 666 is not a good number to be floating around on Halloweek. IYKYK. But we’re safe here in The Lounge!

Here’s your Saturday music:

9:00 a.m. Color My World: Various Artists

Songs that include colors in the title, lyrics or both from the above pictured along with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Donovan, Booker T & The MGs, Donovan, Electric Light Orchestra, Procol Harum, The Who, Amy Winehouse, Sam & Dave, Badfinger, Bob Dylan, Fleetwood Mac, Elvis Costello, Neil Young, Jefferson Airplane, The Hollies, Elvis Presley, Janis Joplin, Cream, Marvin Gaye, Lucinda Williams and more!

We play plenty of Paul Simon, but this is the first live performance we’ve aired. It will be one of as many as we can find (and we have more already in waiting).

8:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of Queen

Here’s something we don’t play a lot of: Arena Rock, Glam Rock. Not our favorite genre here in The Lounge, but Queen is a bit different. They’ve made more good than bad, but we like early Queen and the days of Keep Yourself Alive and Killer Queen as opposed to what they later morphed into.

We’ve finally made it to the weekend. Not going to lie, going back to hardware hell after nine glorious days of vacation was more than tough, but it had to be done. We’re here and we’re totally free. And there’s no commercial advertising. The button is below.
