My TOP 10 ALBUMS OF 2025

This is MY LIST of albums that speak to ME. It's based on how much I listened to the album & how much I enjoyed it. Like bourbon, your taste may vary. That's a good thing by the way. Like & listen to what moves YOU... always!

@Chief_Wildcat Jealous of ya brother! Hoping for dry weather this year... but the same bad ass music as last year!

[David Midwest - MWRU @DavidinSL]

@td_nash Lem Barney - watched him run back an INT at one of my first Lions games!

@SeanPBali I have always said, when Larkin is out 2nd line Center we will be winners & he'll explode. We never got the talent to drop him to 2C, but somebody will... dammit

@murphy_tjm8286 @AuthorGFAllen Good call that was an early one for me along with these two...

[David Midwest - MWRU @DavidinSL]

@WGTD_Tracer Not controversial at all. More like much needed common sense for the masses. In my opinion anyway.

I ran my mouth about AI music a couple years ago roughly and it blew up in my face and here I am talking about it again for the first time in ages. Support the independents my homies

@Hotrodstew121 Wife: Is there a way around the construction?

Me: Ummmmmm...

Nearing Kentucky, but just let me say that driving through Cincinnati is a DISASTER... even when you plan to do it between morning & evening rush hour. Grrrrrrr...

Day One in the books. @Philbow55 Philip Bowen and @RachelBaiman did The Ark proud last night. Entertaining a small, but enthusiastic crowd.

Just left Michigan and are passing through Ohio on the way to Zanzabar in Louisville for tonight's @JohnnyMullenax show!

[David Midwest - MWRU @DavidinSL]

@WGTD_Tracer Hell yeah... my hat of choice for our road-trip to Louisville today to see Johnny Mullenax!

@BBGreatMoments Jack Morris, most wins of any pitcher in the 1980's.

[David Midwest - MWRU @DavidinSL]

@GregEno Ted Williams & Ty Cobb, just to listen to them discuss hitting.

Al Kaline - calming presence so as to get the most out of the previously mentioned discussion.

Lem Barney - met him twice, incredibly interesting person in ways far beyond football.

Tom Harmon - UM & WW2 stories

[David Midwest - MWRU @DavidinSL]

@jasoneady Mississippi born, Texas BASED (as opposed to raised, but whatever).

[David Midwest - MWRU @DavidinSL]

@Kristinartz What was Your Favorite Band When You Were 15?

1977 was a transitional year for me musically. Everything before seeing Elvis Costello on SNL and everything after. That appearance led to Ramones, Clash, Stiff Records (Nick Lowe), etc. Absolutely changed my life.

Don't miss this show. Kenny is a real deal cowboy. His songs are full of grit & gasoline. He & his band flat burn the stage down every night!

@icculus26 Hang tough Chris, the tide is going turn.

Welp, (that’s upper Midwest for time to leave) I tried my hardest but alas the body has its own rules. Looks like the mural I started last year- blew my shoulder out on- is gonna need to be finished by another artist. I tried painting for about 3 hours and I’m in the worst pain since I had surgery. There is nothing more devastating to an artist than not being able to make the creations you started, finish the journey with your hand. If anyone knows an artist who even slightly resembles my style and can finish this, I’d be forever grateful. I’m pretty emotionally destroyed after realizing for real my limitations. Not sure how to pivot, but if anyone knows someone who needs an incredibly successful visual artist who had an unexpected career destroying injury for non-art making let me know! Ugh.
I’m gonna listen to what is slowly becoming my favorite album this year- Keyland, Knuckle Sandwich, and pretend I’m not completely crushed and crying like a kid right now.
