Moonweasel’s 6-Song Sunday: 7/6/25
Good day, all! I figured it’s been more than a minute since I busted out a Triple S, so what the hell, eh? Not gonna lie. This edition is gonna be heavy on the rock. I might toss a left field pick out there, but at the moment, my heart is saying “rock n’ rolla”.…

All Retro, All Day
Because everything needs an intro. 😉 Good day, and Happy Saturday, y’all! I’ve been slightly under the radar after getting exposed to some stuff on the job that kinda messed me up for a spell. I’m feeling better, but recovery has been slowed by the constantly shifting weather. 70 degrees during the day, and then…

Van Haulin’ 2.0 (The Unboxing)
Why, yes I did, actually. And I even have a few pics! 😄 So, I have had absolutely zero interesting to post the last few days, so I figured I would share a few snaps of the interior of the Van Halen remaster of For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge that I bought recently. It is very…

Van Haulin’
So, I don’t have much interesting to post today (still putting my pic post together), and this probably isn’t that exciting to most of you, but it is to me. 😀 I went to get the mail the other day, and something I had been waiting for finally arrived: It’s a remaster of Van Halen’s…

Moonweasel’s 6 Song Sunday: EVH Birthday Edition
Well, I certainly couldn’t let this one pass by, could I? As the title hints at, today is indeed Edward Van Halen’s birthday. I don’t think it is any great secret how much I absolutely love Van Halen, and that Eddie, to me, is the GOAT. And while it may seem silly to some for…

You Always Remember Your First
The first album I ever bought as a young, impressionable lad. From there, there was no going back. VH then, now, and always. The impact it had on my life can never be overstated. It’s seen me through the best of times, the worst, and everything in between. 🤘🤘 Rock on, y’all! 🤘😎🤘

Six Song Sunday: 09.22.24
For this edition of Triple S, I am posting up some songs that I listened to during my recent sabbatical. I spent a fair amount of time working out and just focusing on nothing much in general, and trying to rest in between. I, like many others, find music is a good thing to get…

Humble Beginnings
Pasadena, California. 1964. “Edward! Stop banging on the pots and pans! You’re giving me a headache!” Eugenia was at her wits end. Young Edward was once again giving one of his infamous “concerts” in the family kitchen. “Jan,” Eugenia said with an exasperated sigh, “can you please corral your son so that I can turn…

Recent Goings On
Hello all. Hope everyone’s been well. I have not had a ton of free time lately, so my posts and replies have been quite sporadic. For the TLDR folks: I’ve been wading through a bit of red tape, had some family functions to attend to, and recently went and saw Sammy Hagar in concert. For…

In A Time When…
In a time when attention spans are shorter than Jason Statham’s hair. In a time when rudeness is as common as a WordPress glitch. In a time when no one remembers… One Gorilla Does. He remembers when a phone was just… A phone. He remembers when the cars were fast, and the women… Were faster.…

Eagles Fly
Because Sammy Hagar said it far better back in 1987 than I ever could. One of the most beautiful songs off Sammy’s 1987 album I Never Said Goodbye. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing him perform this song live many times over the years. Sometimes acoustically, but also during his time in Van Halen in…

Hello and welcome to this week’s Triple S. Going to try and dig up a few tunes you’ve not heard in a spell, or perhaps haven’t heard before. The Gorilla took the morning off and asked Mr. Moonweasel to cover this edition. So, without further ado… “Na Na Kiss Him Goodbye” – Axxis Axxis is…

Hopefully you’ll find something to enjoy. “Woman of 1,000 Years” – Steve Stevens’ Atomic Playboys Steve Stevens is best known as Billy Idol’s longtime collaborator. He’s the guitarist on some of…
