i got a bit obsessed with the modern lovers this year & attempted to assemble a complete-as-possible 1970-1974 live chronology. it's far from complete, but found lots of fun stuff, including a setlist for what might be the 1st gig & ads for their shows in bermuda. jessejarnow.com/2025/12/the-mo<…

flyer for the Modern Lovers at Stone Phoenix Coffeehouse with caricatures of band
what might be a handwritten setlist for the first Modern Lovers show
newspaper ad for the Modern over soppening for the Famous Esso Steel Band
The Winter Ball
Boston's Jam'n Jelly Boogie
A Very Social Night with the Velvet Underground's MOE TUCKER with The Modern Lovers Jonathan Richman 'n George Thorogood

I love that my campus's first student newspaper, founded from the ashes of an earlier paper in 1974 by a bunch of McLuhan fanatics, was called the Medium II. Why II? Because the official name of the campus radio station, that no one ever used, was the Medium (McLuhan was big at the University of Toronto). Since the fall of 1994, the paper has officially been known simply as the Medium, making it the only thing I can think of that had a "2" dropped from rather than appended to i…

At a Pride festival in October,
a volunteer approached Sara Luce Look, the co-owner of
Charis Books and More,
and shared that decades prior,
a person in her life was sexually abused.
The person’s counselor had suggested they go to Charis for support.
Known as “the South’s oldest independent feminist bookstore,”
the Decatur, Georgia, shop
not only offered books that the survivor found helpful,
but it also provided a safe space where the…

Sure Reverb. I just "forgot" that $500,000 vintage synth in my cart.

An email from Reverb that says:

Forgetting Something?
We noticed that you left something in your cart. Just a reminder: there are
no reservations on Reverb, so live listings can be bought by someone else
at any time.

I am holding up a vinyl record album with a bright yellow/orange cover. The album features Count Basie and Neal Hefti dressed in vintage baseball uniforms - one wearing a dark cap and the other wearing a red cap. The text on the cover reads "Basie plays Hefti" (with "EMUS" visible at the top, part of a reissue label).

The photo is taken in a home workspace. In the background, there's a white shelving unit containing various items including:

• A black sculptural bust on the left
• A small fram…

Mars - The Search Begins (1974): #Mars, including speculation on what form that life might take, many of the core ideas are still current 1/2 century on. The film was made just before NASA's Viking landers were launched in 1975 to begin the search but after the great success of the orbiter Mariner 9 - Olympus Mons was still called Nix Olympica and model makers believed that the sky over the Martian landscape was a deep blue.

Für meinen Film über die #Speckschweiz habe ich eine interessante Fotoserie von 1974 in einem zerfledderten Buch gefunden. Die Fotos hatte eine Fotostudentin geschossen.
Jetzt finde mal die Fotografin ohne Anhaltspunkt nach so langer Zeit...

Total Cohort Fertility Rate and Total Period Fertility Rate for Ireland, using birth data up to end 2024. Consistent downward trend in both, the relative pause in the middle of the TPFR decline is associated with large net in-migration (including of young women) during the Celtic Tiger.
