Greetings from Laurel Canyon!
Until it all explodes / I'll dream of you and cry
You can't control the way you feel / You'd rather run away and hide / I bet it hurts a lot more to heal / When you're so wrapped up inside
Why oh why / I can't say goodbye
Halfway through the month of Sagittarius, and it's the third week of the 'final year' for '23. It's not time to say goodbye, but it's time to say goodbye to the music of 2023. TVD is on vacation, so here we go.
Again, my annual “Golden Shower of Idelic Hits” is more of a “count around” at the end of the year than the other way around. I put the set in no order. The playlist is really just a big shout out to these artists who helped make 2023 the best year ever for rock 'n' roll. I mean on the one hand, what a crazy fucking year—and world—but as I listen to the outcome of these last 3 perfect hours what comes to mind is:
What a beautiful morning it is in Laurel Canyon.
So nice to have a birthday dinner with Susan, Zoe and Jonah.
Thank you Jon and the TVD crew and thank God for rock 'n' roll.
See you or hear from me in 2024!
