Very nice researched piece Colin. It’s interesting you mention In & Out. My wife and I are on the board of GAP Ministries in Tucson. It was picked by In & Out as the non-profit of the year out of the 200 they support. All their executives came out to celebrate.

Thanks for restacking, James! I looked up that ministry. It looks pretty cool. That’s amazing that it won that award!

Yeah I haven’t actually been to an In-n-Out in about 7 years, but it was a big part of my childhood in California.

Never heard of the band! I will look them up 👍

They’re a good one! Sometime Around Midnight is probably their best. This is one of their early performances of it.

Yes! Never heard of the ATE, but sounds fun. As a teenager, I embraced weirdness by listening to progressive bands like Yes and Genesis (I still do) with their 18-minute trips while everyone else was into Led Zeppelin and Def Leppard. There's something about doing things a "little off" from what everyone else is doing.

Yeah they’re really good! Hard to describe but a bit like a cross between The Cure and The Jesus and Mary Chain. I have to confess I haven’t listened much to Yes or Genesis, but I’ll have to check them out!
