Here’s something that’s been on my mind. Cesar Chavez was accused of sexually assaulting/abusing at least 3 women a couple decades ago. His name has been removed from buildings,schools, streets, and a holiday, rightfully so. The orange asshole in the White House has been accused by more than 2 dozen women of sexual assault , found liable in a civil suit of sexual assault/rape of E. Jean Carroll and ordered to pay her millions of dollars, bragged about grabbing women by the genitals on video, and has been named in the Epstein files a million times. How is he still in office? How does anyone justify following him?
I met Mojo when he first moved to San Diego, before he became Mojo. He was one of a kind. Musical rabble rouser, outlaw country radio mainstay, all around wild man who was also a kind - hearted human. There’s a screening of his documentary at Whistle on Saturday. Check it out.
Tim Mays has been promoting shows and owning clubs in San Diego for 47 years. His most famous club, The Casbah, is celebrating 37 years in business this year. Tim talks with me about the early, often violent, days of the San Diego punk scene. We also talk about the early '90s when San Diego was thought to be "the next Seattle," with bands like Drive Like Jehu, Rocket from the Crypt, and Lucy's Fur Coat being courted by major record labels. We get into Stone Temple Pilots, Iron Butterfly, Jason Mraz, and, of course, Ratt. Tim has been there for all of it and shares stories from his legendary career. Link in bio
