Greetings from two hours north of home! I’m up at my parents’ place this weekend—hanging out and testing some more foilboarding, mono-wing style, behind the boat. Heck, I even brought my wing and might give it a go off my sister’s SUP—haha.

Here is what went down this week, and everyone cheer for JJ McCarthy and the Vikings on Sunday night football.:

The first time I heard these guys was when I took over as the Director of Loud Rock at WMTU 91.9 around 1995. The former director was a huge fan of the more “noise” and off-the-wall but super interesting stuff at the time.

He played their 1989 album “Streecleaner,” and I was like “What the heck is this noise?” And by the time I was done listening to the album, I was a converted fan.

That album still lives up today, many, many years later. I never expected to have them perform live 35 years later, but they did. Justin Broadrick is genius.

Check them out. Streetcleaner full studio album:https://youtu.be/HfN7OR5q_xw​

Much love,
Dr Mike
