Michael's Musings

Daddy's Getting Hot At The Body Shop
Michael Shinafelt

"Dirty, dirty boy

You know everyone is talking on the scene
I hear them whispering 'bout the places that you've been
And how you don't know how to keep your business clean" Unholy, Kim Petras & Sam Smith

Don't sabotage your peace because chaos is familiar, that's all

FYI If people make you sick perhaps you should cook them longer, the more you know...

But I'm A Cheerleader, discuss

The scary part isn't that Trump lies - it's that his supporters shape shift their entire moral code to fit each one, things that make you go Hmmm

The baby peacocks at Hollywood Forever Cemetery are sooo cute!!!

Mix it up a little. Text a random phone number this message: "The fat one won't fit in the woodchipper. What do you want me to do?"

Don't be the chaser. Be the one who gets chased. You are the tequila, not the lime

BTW An empty bottle of wine shows that you know how to finish what you start. Think about it, but not too much...

Hump Day & Chill

Fire Walk With Me

"This whole world's wild at heart and weird on top" Lula, Wild At Heart 

While exiting Hollywood Forever Cemetery post yoga yesterday I happened upon the final resting place of filmmaker David Lynch with many items of tribute scattered around his marker.

Being a Lynch fan I just had to take a picture and share it with all of you. 

Thus today we are going to Hump Day & Chill to the greatness of David Lynch. 

Wild At Heart is my favorite film by him, so I used my favorite quote from it at the top of this Hump Day & Chill post, naturally.

I'm sure seeing him at peace memories of his genius come flooding back to many of you.

Hump Day & Chill and reminisce about them...

JJ Braves

JJ Braves

Portland-based musician and producer JJ Braves returns this summer with his powerful new single, “Fix for a Broken Heart,” dropping July 25. The track—an emotionally-charged anthem of resilience—arrives ahead of his forthcoming full-length album and is the first taste of what’s shaping up to be his most fully realized release yet. JJ’s summer tour begins this week in Portland, OR and stretches across the West Coast through early August. JJ Braves is the throwback rock project of LA-based artist Joshua Keever, blending synth-driven hooks, classic rock theatrics, and deeply personal lyricism. Drawing inspiration from the power-chord heroics of Queen and Weezer, the slick pop swagger of Huey Lewis & the News, and even the animated bravado of the Transformers theme song, JJ Braves channels those influences into anthemic, emotionally resonant songs. His debut EP, The Circle Complete, introduced audiences to his signature stacked guitar tones and high-energy synth arrangements—designed to uplift listeners of all ages. Writing music from a young age as a coping mechanism for emotional isolation, Keever infuses the JJ Braves project with purpose: to empower misfits, outsiders, and anyone who’s ever struggled to feel like they belong. “Fix for a Broken Heart” carries that same message—pushing through pain and finding strength when everything seems broken. JJ Braves - Summer 2025 Tour Dates 7/24 – Portland, OR @ White Eagle Saloon 7/25 – Seattle, WA @ Central Saloon 7/26 – Clarkston, WA @ Hogan's Pub 7/27 – Boise, ID @ Lost Grove Brewing 7/28 – Elko, NV @ Charlee's Bar 7/29 – Reno, NV @ Reno Public Market 7/30 – Sacramento, CA @ Old Ironsides 7/31 – Long Beach, CA @ Supply & Demand 8/1 – North Hollywood, CA @ Kulak's Woodshed 8/2 – San Francisco, CA @ Rickhouse 8/3 – Medford, OR @ Rockafairy   Linktree Instagram Facebook Spotify Apple Music
