I was often very sarcastic about the music the band members wanted to play, and Doug had to come to my rescue a couple of times when Roger and I nearly came to blows over the musical direction of the group. I kept pushing because I felt that if we didn’t change we’d never appear...
“we were young kids. we didn’t know what the fuck we were doing. we felt like we wanted to do something that can inspire people. it came from the love of the art. i grew up listening to pop-rock because that’s what my mom let us listen openly. i was familiar with soul but ...

We all lay about afterwards burping gently and nibbling on just one more bit of pumpkin or pecan pie. I can’t remember who launched the trial balloon for our Christmas— either Marsh, or Thea ventured. “You know, we could do a really nice bash for Christmas….” The room perked up...
Even if you solely use Camera Control to open the camera app, you can still free up the Action button to do something else. As someone who had it set to open the camera on my iPhone 15 Pro Max, being able to switch it to something else has been such a treat. Six paragraphs on a...
