I enjoyed this insect playlist, Patrick. I guess great musicians can find their inspiration almost anywhere!
Like photographers! I wish I had your firsthand experience of Brood X, Tom. I'm glad you liked it and thanks for listening.
Love the opening tracks, Patrick. Interesting to read that the Cowboy Junkies were touring the west coast of the US at the time of the Tiananmen Square massacre their track is about - I'd just headed to a remote community in northern Ontario with the protests still ongoing, and didn't get news of what happened until six months later when I returned to 'civilization'. I read about it at the same time as finding out about the San Francisco earthquake of a few weeks before - both in copies of Time while doing laundry at a laundromat! Cheers for bringing back those memories, and the music of course! Simon
Wow, that's some heavy delayed news! I'm glad the song had that resonance for you, and thanks again for listening, Simon!
Interesting selection Patrick. Thank you for sharing! :D
(What a cute insect!)
Cuter singly than en masse! Thanks for listening, Maria!
