Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
I should note that it is only recently that I could take listening to "Take The Money and Run" again. I got so sick of it back in the 70s and 80s that hearing it was like finger nails on the chalkboard. Now I enjoy it. Strange how tastes change over time.
Miller's hit songs are okay to me, no real favorites.
Favorite Jackson Browne songs:
Jamaica Say You Will
The Load Out
Running on Empty
Shaky Town
These Days
The Pretender
Somebody's Baby
Tender is the Night
Call It a Loan
Boulevard

Obviously to get the chicks. They say Ukulele players always get the babes.
Damn!!!!!! That's what I shoulda got!
It's what was missing that would have taken it from 10 to 11.
The Mrs bought a Uke about 10 years ago as a gag. It's a pink flying V. It's cool, but it's cheap as hell and doesn't stay in tune.
Here's Dave Grohl with one.
I got this one instead. It's cool, but not double-neck cool.
My son built a ukelele from one of those monthly subscription kit deals. Then played it with his chorus, surrounded by girls (he's third from the left).
(pre-pandemic, of course)
Great. Why didn’t you tell me that when I was in high school?
I could have saved a ton of cash, and might have actually been a player.
Stud! Who knew?
No pictures of him airborne like his old man?
No, he's not a headbanger mosh-pitter like me, he's into EDM (modern video game music, more specifically). His go-to music artist right now is Acutic Notes. Yeah, I'd never heard of them either. When he was about 9, he was listening to Knife Party. Yeah, I'd never heard of them either. Our closest overlaps are Celldweller and Missio.
Most of my photos of him are taken when I've walked into the house and he's done something that would sound impossible, but somehow he's done it anyway. Like this cube of hangars, for example.
