Music Monday – “The old man at the Quickstop/Lying to the county cops/And laughing like his soul was without sin.”
“Cast Iron Skillet” – Jason Isbell
Music Monday – “Well I come home from work/You know I’m tired of the beat/I try to make some supper/Get myself something to eat”
“Night Time” – George Thorogood
Music Monday – “What would you say/If I took those words away?/Then you couldn’t make things new/Just by saying ‘I love you'”

“Weird Fishes/Arperggi” – Radiohead
Music Monday – “Clicking sticks three times/Drawing ‘er back to your own line/Top shelf and we’re up by one/Ringing ‘em off the crossbars/Moving our nets for the cars/And all together we’d yell ‘Game on!’/And then our folks would call us in/And we all agreed ‘Next goal wins'”
“More Than A Game” – Mike Plume Band I didn’t put a lot of thought into this (well, except picking whoever was against the Oilers and Leafs!) but here’s my picks for this year’s Stanley Cup Playoffs…
