RAW impressions with Lou Barlow and Adelle Barlow

Lou doesn't need his glasses anymore (maybe), meanwhile Adelle is adjusting to her new Progressive lenses. 4-track Man reminds us all that nothing is funny these days, including Lou's cover of The Vandals 1982 song Anarchy Burger (hold the government). Adelle finds an LP called Music Machine Part II that has nothing to do with The Music Machine band but Lou plays with it anyway. Super Sonic Transport is also discussed.WATCH on LouTubehttps://youtu.be/SEF9gSF58l0extra stuff on out Substackhttps://barlowfamilygeneral.substack.com/unique gift items in our store, one of a kind special sh*t https://barlowfamilygeneralstore.com/RAW Impressions uses Samson Q9U mics, mic stands and the Mixpad MXP144X Use code BARLOW for 15% off Samson Products at:https://www.samash.com/ Hosted on Acast.
