The world lost Charlie Watts today. Whew. I’ve been listening to the Stones since the First Millenia. Well, Charlie had a great long life full of unbelievable ups and downs. Hopefully, mostly ups. I saw the Rolling Stones in Portland, Oregon in July of 1966. I saw them the second time late in their careers in Seattle, I think August 1999. These guys are pros. Imagine working with the same dudes for 50 + years. Goodbye Charlie. You will be missed. I’m broken hearted that you are gone but I’m so glad I got to meet you and your rowdy crew. RIP.
Not only has Megadeth won at least 12 Grammys in their incredible career but they also won the 1993 Genesis Award (It was then the Doris Day Music Award. Given to artist(s) that brings animal rights to an underserved audience.) for their single, “Countdown to Extinction.” Today I thought we should have a little noise. So here is the Calamity Politics Juke box Choice of the Day. Mostly, in celebration of leaving Afghanistan. Here is Megadeth doing their incredibly long, incredibly loud masterpiece. I need to give credit to Calamity Politics contributor, Dave Shadrick for this one. So if you like his choice let him know. It’s all about politics, and Megadeth has maintained a very political stance. Enough, here it is, Megadeth “Holy Wars.”
Well its that time again. Time again for Calamity Juke Box Choice of the Day. Today selection comes from the clown herself. She thought it was time to get serious about child abuse. This is one of the bands earliest and best known songs. You can help. Report abuse. Abuse gets worse, not better. Step up. Make the difference in the life of an abused child.
I know I keep dating myself, but the Calamity Politics Juke Box Choice of the Day comes from 1985. So here we go folks, here’s one of my all time favorites, “Money For Nothing.” Please enjoy!
Just Dave is at it again. This week Dave asks if Trump should make a run for president in 2024. The man who incited a riot to overturn our government is actually out there rallying his MAGA crowd begging for money to support another Trump presidential run. Dave says, ‘hell no’ the orange one will never run again. His goal at this point in his life is to continue milking his supporters for every cent he can squeeze out of them.

The Calamity Politics Jukebox Choice of the Day is from way back, by David Bowie. The tune was chosen by Calamity herself when she saw that great article by William Jones “Billionaires in Space”. So here we go folks, from back in 1972 at the beginning of America’s first awkward but brilliant steps into space flight. As Jeff Bezos gets ready to blast off from somewhere on earth, I thought it might be fun to remind Jeff Bezos that not all flights go as planned.
On this long holiday weekend Dave Shadrick from the “The Just Dave Show” suggested we highlight “The Fourth of July” by X. It’s a bit sad, but it’s supposed to be. So, grab your hankies ladies, here’s the Jukebox Choice of the Day, “The Fourth of July”.
The Calamity Juke Box Choice of the Day is Gary B.B. Coleman’s version of “The Sky Is Crying.” Calamity chose this because it is one of the saddest songs she could think of . Why, is Calamity sad? Calamity is broken hearted because half of the U.S. Senate doesn’t believe every American citizen should have easy access to the voting booth. Shame on Mitch McConnell.
Oh, my. Not sure what to say but Dave is back. He was asked to discuss Asian and South Pacific Islanders Month, but knowing Dave I can’t promise he will follow instructions. In fact I can almost guarantee what ever was planned was filed in the round file and he is off on some crazy rant. Enjoy.
