I’m a big fan of Tom Jones! In 1997 I saw him in concert two night in a row in Fort Collins, and later got to meet him at a bar after one of those shows. I shook his hand, looked into his eyes, and proclaimed, “TJ, I love you.” True story. At the time, [...]

I’m a big fan of the french duo Air. Air has consistently released great material since their 1998 debut Moon Safari. And now they go back to the moon for their latest release. Le Voyage Dans La Lune (A Voyage to the Moon) is a 1902 movie that has been recently restored and re-released. During [...]

I didn’t get an official song count, but they played at least 90 songs over three nights without repeating a single song. Impressive. You can find recordings of the show at the BrownTracker or at the [...]
It’s getting a bit ridiculous. I have this wonderful website to post interesting things, yet I almost never post to it. This could be a nice diary for me, something to show my great grandchildren — but no, I fail to utilize this amazing tool. So here is a promise to my great grandchildren, I [...]
Nothing makes me happier than seeing (the) Melvins play live. They are the heaviest band I’ve ever seen. And not “heavy” as in loud, but heavy as in what’s-that-stuff-dripping-from-the-ceiling “heavy.” It absolutely kills me that their mini-residency tour is not stopping in Denver. I’ll just have to make due with their latest offering, Sugar Daddy [...]
Continue Reading →Yup, just about a year. For some reason, and I can’t explain why really, I decided to stop posting here at scott stafford dot com. It’s easy to get caught up in daily activities and stop writing, but it’s also nice to take the time to think and tap away. It can be therapeutic. I [...]
Continue Reading →I am a part-time resident in Canon City, Colorado. Most of the people I interact with are retirees and rafters. I was anxious to see Prison Valley, as I rarely have interaction with prison employees and was hoping for an in-depth viewpoint on how the prison system works in it’s day-to-day operation. Instead, I [...]
Some of you may remember an old Internet radio site I ran for a few years called Auxiliary Radio. It was a showcase for innovative radio programming. Not algorithm based programming like Pandora or Last.fm, but an actual DJ based radio station. It was great! The radio site has been gone for nearly a decade [...]
My good friend, John Reidy, and I finally got around to recording the LOST podcast we’ve been meaning to do — posting it less than 24 hours before the series finale. But alas, it is in the bag and chock full of LOST music, reflections, and predictions. So who’s going to die in the series [...]
Continue Reading →I’m so confused I’m still not sure what to make of last night’s episode. Irony: (i·ro·ny) a manner of organizing a work so as to give full expression to contradictory or complementary impulses, attitudes, etc., esp. as a means of indicating detachment from a subject, theme, or emotion. Last night Sawyer led a mission off [...]
