<p> I am, at this moment, kicking myself for not having made the time to go to Moogfest so I could see them live.</p> <p> When I have five minutes, I sit at my drumkit and play <strong>Golden Age</strong>, because it is currently my favorite song in the whole universe:</p> <p> <div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;"> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" loading="eager" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/2wTHxUl9WdQ?autoplay=0&amp;controls=1&amp;end=0&amp;loop=0&amp;mute=0&amp;start=0" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; border:0;" title="YouTube video"></iframe> </div> </p>

<p> So, I posted about my feeling that <a href="2011/05/13/the-pop-music-of-my-youth-isnt-getting-rehashed">pop music today was a retread of stuff that wasn&#39;t even the best there was the first time around</a>. I got some pushback on that, to the effect that I, being over 40, would have to be an exceptional specimen to appreciate music that wasn&#39;t of my youth, and of course I thought things might sound like other stuff, but that was just a natural consequence of having listened the first time around (tell me if you think I&#39;m mischaracterizing your argument, Chet).</p>

<p> I actually rather liked <em>TV on the Radio</em> on SNL last night. The last musical guest who didn&#39;t annoy me into fast forwarding was, I kid you not, Duffy. Which kinda surprised me too.</p>
