I love Steely Dan and this is a great interview. Donald Fagen is supposed to be working on a new solo album. 🎡

Talking Nabokov and Judaism with the Steely Dan co-founder, whose first live album comes out today.

Watched the old Hammer classic The Devil Rides Out again. It has some genuinely scary scenes but I can’t help laughing at some of Christopher Lee’s hammier lines. It still stands up quite well despite being over fifty years old. 🍿

I have three more invites to literal.club.

Off to my first post-lockdown big indoor public event tomorrow. I got an email from the venue with a list of precautions that are going to be in place but I’m still a little nervous.

I considered not going but there has to be a first time and I really “need” this concert.

A great unreleased (as far as I know) live version of my favourite Genesis song. 🎡

Genesis Live at the Rainbow (1973) - Cinema Show (2009 Remaster) - YouTube

A reminder for anyone thinking about getting the new iPad mini - your old Apple Pencil will not work. 🀨

Email from Blizzard re new Diablo 2 Resurrected game - “Hell’s Gates Have Opened!”. They don’t mention that those gates are closed to Mac users. I think I’ve had enough of various hells anyway.

The Drafts action “Append To Obsidian Journal” is good enough to make me want to use Obsidian again.

I bought myself a little synthesiser to learn about synthesis and have a bit of fun. That led me to buying an audio interface and a delay pedal and now I’m thinking this is not the cheap hobby I thought it would be.
