Damn I didn’t know you had them too, I was picking up dinner and boom, it just became a nightmare and the rain started dropping I was like well at least my phone has a great camera we can make it work
Mine was earlier in the day between 2-3pm. I was freaking out cause it came so fast, but luckily passed just as fast
I was sitting in a hall closet with extra water, food, blankets and my dog. Then I looked down an realized there was a 6 pack of seagrams coolers in the closet. My husband bought them a year ago thinking I would like them?!?!??? At least gave me a laugh during my freak out.

Yellow April #1
The B-52’s - The B-52’s, 1979.
Right into it, then. Good one to spin for a Friday.
This is a 1981 West German pressing, where the album was actually known as Play Loud, which is what’s printed on the label - being both a title and an instruction.
The tune is probably my favorite B’s song (top 3 at least), really showcases Ricky Wilson’s unique playing style. The group was (understandably) never the same following his untimely demise — although they did achieve greater commercial success in the following years.

I needed something to wake me up. Should’ve included the lyrics. Well. Never mind. Have a good weekend.

Morning everyone! Yellow April!
Dizzee was baby rascal making this record - at 16. I’m 38 and still struggle with what end to open the bin bags. Ungenerous.

Right, yellow April it is then. Let’s do this @TMAC!! I’m going big early with one of the best records ever made (in my humble opinion).
Bonus picture, my Bad Brains shirt from at least 20 years ago that is now a disgusting rag that I can’t bear to throw away.

I’m incredibly saddened to say that their first recording studio in Arlington was closed down, the owner said he might move it elsewhere, but he’s a older gent, might just call it a day.
A lot of great music came out of there, Bad Brains Fugazi, Foo fighters recorded there.
