This song was played non-stop in college circa '98-'99.
It was most certainly a one-hit wonder by the New Radicals.
Kudos to my friend and Good Dog regular, Milo, for enlightening me to the Onion's "A.V. Club" project.
They have artists cover other artists. They do 25 a year and as the year wraps up the performers have less and less to choose from -so it can be a bit of a challenge.

Philly Beer Scene/ Philly Tap Finder announces 2nd Bottle Share
Sunday June 23rd from 4-7- PBS and PTF will host their 2nd bottle share.
They've selected a community garden on Christian St between 3rd and 4th st for round two. Jared and Kristy Littman of Philly Tap Finder grow their own hops there.
They will cap it at 90 tickets so reserve your spot HERE. through ticketleap.
$15 will get you in the garden. That includes awesome wood-fired pizzas from Kennett.
Please bring your own glass- or you can buy a PBS tulip for $5.
This is a bottle share. Please bring a bottle- "any bottle you think people will enjoy," says organizer Jared Littman.
However, if it's on THIS LIST, you might make a few new friends. Kidding. Sort of. Use your judgement and use a public transport/cab to get there. Driving to bottle shares is dumb.

TWO TRACK: Common People "The back from the dead edition"
It's been several months since the last "Tuesday Two Track". November 27th to be exact.
On the 10th day of Beer Week- Dennis Hewlett of the POPE played "Common People" on the juke during the Bell's Brunch. He didn't know it's a favorite of mine and one that I haven't heard in a while as it's on my running mix and I've barely been running. Don't worry-very much a temporary thing.
He mentioned a cover that William Shatner did. I had never heard of it. The lovely Laura Bell was sitting next to me and confirmed that it existed.
SO- that prompted me to bring back the Two track this week.

And here's a video someone made about the making of "Common People"

BONGOGASH- this THURSDAY 8 pm
Ever since I saw Toots and the Maytals and Hugh Masekela four days apart two weeks ago- I've been listening to their Pandora stations.
The arduous drives to and from DC are better, chores are better, everything is better.
Varga Bar and I had an event slated for Thursday May 9th. I thought it would be fun to add a lil
Afrobcuban, reggae, ska, calypso music to the evening.
As of now they're calling for possible thunderstorms which is unfortunate- but that's 96 hours away.
things could change. And even if they don't- I'm sure people still play bongos in the rain. (as long as their not walking down the stairs in the rain playing bongos).
I am not a graphic designer so forgive my attempt at an event sign.
See you this THURSDAY at VARGA at 8! 10th and Spruce if you've never been.

Tuesday Two Track: Willie Nelson 80th Birthday Edition
It's been months since a Tuesday two track. I almost wondered sometimes if it was possible to run out of material so to speak, but no I don't think I could. I just run out of time...
Today- Willie Nelson was thanked again and again for 57 years of music on his special day. Lots of twitter and facebook tributes. He is nothing short of a living legend- and probably pretty lucky to still be among the living.
Here Willie does a lovely version of the Righteous Brothers "Unchained Melody"

Kutztown's Saucony Creek Trickles into Philly Taverns this Week
This Wednesday, Saucony Creek launches at the P.O.P.E.
They were one of 1,118 microbreweries that were slated to open in 2012. And they actually did.
Owner, Matt Lindenmuth took his dream to Kickstarter last Spring and with enough support and a generous landlord, built a brewery and crew (Joe Percoco, head brewer formerly of Barley Creek in the Poconos) and started distributing this year.
What makes them different (besides the fact that Lindenmuth spent years as a globe-trottin' Guinness Book inline vert rollerblader/snowboarder) is they are farming and malting their own barley.
What else do you need to know???
The brewery took over an old Saucony Shoe warehouse.
They've named the brewery for the Sacony Creek that there water is sourced from, but kept the original spelling.
It appears that 7% Stone Fly IPA is a potential flagship out of the gate.
On Wednesday between 7-10 pm you can try that as well as North Ramp Stout and Bling Blangers Brown.
Guests can also meet Lindenmuth who I imagine has a few great stories.
Kudos to them for making it happen and being one of the 2, 416 breweries now operating.
Follow Saucony Creek on twitter here. Website coming soon.
