And the finale for Stefon

I'll miss Hedar most as Lindsey Buckingham in the way overly done What's Up With That? Hey look, Kenan Thompson isn't leaving the show... another 10 episodes of that (at least).

Fred Armisen goes out on a classy note

Bill Hader and Fred Armisen made their final appearances as SNL cast regulars Saturday. Hader's exit, a sendoff for Stefon, is great: big, packed with cameos and funny. Armisen, who I often call tedious, went out with a quiet and excellent bang. Carrie Brownstein, Steve Jones, J Mascis and Kim Gordon helped. Classy.

Like the sign says...

Song of the Day: "Fifth in Line to the Throne"

Camera Obscura, along with Neko Case, taking it down a bit from the new thing for which they're touring which overlaps with Lelando's big day but we won't talk about that at all if he comes to the show with us that night.

We're playing it by ear.

Song of the Day: "Collapse Rebuild"

Suddenly it's Monday and I didn't post a song or a birthday thing for my dad yesterday. Weird.

Meanwhile here's a new track from Trapped in Kansas who are from Scotland and, based on this, may qualify as math rock. Because the "Scottish music" thing and the math rock maybe-it's-a-thing weren't enough individually. Now they're combined.

Heading to SF in a few hours. Act casual.
