"Gun-Shy" by Grizzly Bear

I'm publishing all of my backlogged draft posts that I haven't had time to finish.  Hopefully someday I'll find time to really complete them...

I went to the clubhouse tonight to help assemble the representative signs for our Ignored But Not Silenced Direct Action Tomorrow.

"Una Paloma Blanca" by George Baker Selection

Hmm, this popped up when I was searching for yesterday's song and I remember this.  I can't remember if it was the B-side or maybe another hit?  Anyway, it's a fun song.

The second video it looks like the "blue screened" them in.  Weird!

"Reach" by Martini Ranch

I always loved this song and the video was so cool.  Funny they substituted "dirty striped britches" for "dirty sons a bitches".  I always loved the line: "hell boy, gimme that guitar".

Sad to see that Bill Paxton (a member of Martini Ranch) passed away on Feb. 25.  I hadn't realized he was only a couple of months younger than me, born in the same year, 1955.

"Just Like a Woman" by Bob Dylan

Another Stephen Colbert Late Show that really made me laugh, this one about Jeff Sessions:

I was going to post a different Bob Dylan song today, but I had trouble findin it.  But while I was searching I came across this song, another song I've always loved.and it felt right for me.  Sometimes I do feel I "break like a little girl".  I'm actually okay with that :)

There are all sorts of versions of this song on YouTube, some of them seem to even have somewhat different lyrics.  I couldn't find anything with the album version\ I remember.

"Anxious In Venice" by Superhumanoids

My BFF Carri had her first "Newer New Wave" show on 103.1 The Wave earlier tonight.  I really enjoyed it, I really liked every one of the Newer Wave songs she played.  I had a hard time deciding which one to post tonight.

I finally decided this one stood out with a female vocal and after I watched the video I was sold.  I absolutely loved it!  I've watched the video like 8 times now, it's awesome!

Not only does the lead singer's hair look a lot like mine many days, but she really looks like I feel sometimes.  Actually, I can TOTALLY relate to this song and video.  Some days I so want to escape!!

Of course one of the things I really want to escape from is the constant shit show from Cheeto Voldemort.  Here is a Finnish skit (with subtitles) that is pretty funny:

Update 5-Mar-2017:

The band's website is here: http://www.superhumanoids.com/ and they are a trio consisting of: Sarah Chernoff the lead singer, Max St. John synth programmer and Cameron Parkins.

"Wear Your Love Like Heaven" by Donovan

I went to the Utah Women Unite meeting tonight.  So uplifting to be among people who are so dedicated.  Such an amazing group!!

Next Wednesday, March 8th, we are meeting at the Utah State Capital for a "Direct Action".  Because parking is such a nightmare at the Capital, we are all meeting at City Creek and then they are having buses to take everybody to the Capital.

There was some discussion about having a separate (from the LGBT) Transgender caucus and I was told I would be the "official chair" if that happens.  :)

In other news, I found this video of Bernie Sanders response to Trump's speech on Monday.  I love Bernie, he makes so much sense to me.  He addressed many of the issues, things like giving 3 trillion in tax cuts to the richest 1%, SERIOUSLY?!?!?

This is another song I swear I've posted before, but it doesn't turn up in my searches.
