Sonic Overload 8/10/15

I don’t have much today... I did mark the one year anniversary of the murder—yes, I said murder—of Michael Brown by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, MO last week and also did a set dedicated to the victims of the US nuclear bomb attacks in Hiroshima and Nagasaki that happened 70 years ago last week. I suppose I could talk about Fascists on Parade aka the two Republican debates last week or how it boggles my mind that a dyed-in-the-wool racist and misogynist like Trump is doing as well as he is but then I remember that there are PLENTY of assholes in this country that support that crap.  In other words, NO surprise.

I guess I do have something today... but let’s get on to the punk rock...
