Thursday night at 9 pm I'm looking forward to playing with The Patti Rothberg Coincidence at The Hart Bar in Brooklyn. Thank you, Marc Seligman for getting this show for us!
Anyone want to speculate on how long Kash Patel keeps his job? I wonder what the betting markets say. I hope Trump fires him immediately. His behavior is inexcusable. Hopefully Republicans in Congess will apply pressure. I wonder how his Whiskey compares with Jameson, my favorite. I wonder who made it and how much it cost us (tax payers).

This was a real, insane, profane, and un-Christian post from Trump on Truth Social in the very early morning hours of Easter Sunday 2026; “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell — JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”
I am embarrassed and disgusted that he made this post, especially on Easter, and that he is threatening to harm innocent civilians. It should be condemned by all decent, moral humans. Destroying Iranian infrastructure will never win Iranian hearts and minds, not even those that participated in protests against the evil Iranian regime. Trump will be hated worldwide more than he already is for generations if he commits this war crime. Posting this on Easter shows how truly evil and deranged he is. Repeatedly attempting to kill civilians and destroy infrastructure hasn't worked out so well for Putin in Ukraine. It won't work in Iran. We've been attacking Iran for five weeks, have spent billions, and caused significant loss of life and loss of US aircraft. Trump must be removed from office by invoking the 25th Amendment and our forces need to withdraw immediately. The harm that's already been caused is irreversible, and is only going to get worse if this madness continues. There is no winning solution. We are going to be paying for this idiotic war for generations. The only possible good is that high oil prices will rapdly accelerate the adoption of alternative energy. Today, Trump has a news conference scheduled for 1 pm. The press had best grill him hard if they expect any respect. Now that Easter is over, it's time to take the gloves off.
Happening soon!! Looking forward to Rock!!! I'll be playing with 3 of the bands with these musicians:
Patti Rothberg
Matt DeSilva
Sue Lashley
Val Kinzler
Rigel Mary Sarjoo
Roger Blanc
Jeffrey Kamen
Billy Eric
Anthony Palumbo
I'm mixing sound for this and sitting in on drums with at least one guest band. Come by to find out who (it's not Patti). No cover charge, great find and drink!
Tonight I'll be drumming at Baker Falls with The Patti Rothberg Coincidence and others. We'll be doing a little longer set than usual. Sue Lashley may sing a few blues songs if she's satisfied her voice has held up after the Coincidence's set. Maybe I'll do a drum solo! Also performing are Matt DeSilva, Rew Starr, Violizzy Taub, Rigel Mary Sarjoo, Roger Blanc, Anthony Palumbo, and Val Kinzler (Valkyrie's Vendetta)!!
I did not watch the State of the Union. Instead, The Patti Rothberg Coincidence had a 3 hour rehearsal at Stevie Marshall Libra Studios. Thank you Chris Larsen for the photo and taking good care of us. We'll be performing a couple of songs at Steve's party at The American Whiskey Bar on Friday night. 247 West 30th St. between 7th and 8th Ave., 6-10 pm You are invited!
