Zoom

How was everyone’s Christmas? It was very strange for us – didn’t feel much like Christmas (the rain washing away most of the snow didn’t help. We tried to get Chinese food for Christmas Eve, but the best place in town was way back-ordered. We went to another (disappointing ) Chines restaurant, and was thus unfulfilled.

We did see the grandson briefly on Christmas Day – brightened everything up. He’s very wonderful – great mood, crawling and pulling himself up – almost walking. Should be soon.

Tried Zooming with family last night – did not go well. Actually used an app called Houseparty – it’s the easiest app to use and generally works well, but the eldest of the family was having problems that we didn’t resolve. Lots of crosstalk and missed communications.

So much for 2020 – we’re waiting out the line until 2021. Most of us are in the last tranche of getting vaccinated- let’s hope the rollout goes quickly, and we have people who know distribution handling getting shipments where they need to go. It’ll definitely be a quiet New Year’s Eve here.

Still, we have music. On today’s podcast, we have music from Chuck Prophet, the Flat Five, the School, Camer Obscura, the Blend, Robert Plant, the Dream Syndicate, Paul Molloy, Grace Jones, the Tom Tom Club, the B-52’s, the DriveBy Truckers, the Georgia Satellites, and Alejandro Escovedo.

This podcast is, as always, available to stream or download at brennick.net. There should be more content there, and I will try to put more things up this year. The podcast is also available to download as a podcast at your favorite podcast streamer – iTunes, Stitcher, etc. The podcast is called brennick.net. Check that out sometime. I welcome suggestions and comments, too – leave them as you will. Thanks for everything you do to encourage me.
