Always great to read your newsletters. This one cracked me up on Never say never. Those quips are proof of it. We all live in a yellow submarine. Dive, dive, dive. Find your bliss and go for it! You and Gabi certainly did. Have fun with the end of the world as we see it.
When we moved to Portugal in 2012 we felt we were in a time warp, listening to 60's music everywhere. Ten years later they had moved onto the 70's. Pretty funny. I assume Depeche Mode and Paula Abdul are on tap in the future.
A great list! I was reminded of the Fred Astaire's RKO screen test comment: "Can't act, slightly bald, can dance a little."
You are welcome, Tricia. Thank YOU for reading! Music from the 60s and 70s is good stuff! My set list of cover songs (I can't act, am slightly bald, and can play guitar and sing a bit) doesn't include anything unless it's 25 years old or older, including:
"Bend Me Shape Me" by the American Breed
"The Letter" by The Box Tops
"Steppin' Stone" by Monkees
I don't intentionally restrict myself to old songs; it's just that I like them and, more importantly, I can play them! The new stuff is too complicated.
I am listening to old Beatles music right now, and it sounds sooooo good. I was hard on old George, the "grumpy Beatle" as U2 referred to him, and not without cause, but he was a damn fine musician and no worse than anyone else. We all live in a Yellow Submarine.

“And our friends will all be there. Many more of them, live next door. Yeehaw!”
Right on brother. Keep the light on!

Thanks as always, Brant.

Ahaha. Great fun!
And, in a strange way, a true comfort
