Mac Baren Navy Flake in a Bjarne with a replacement stem. One of my oldest and most favorite pipes.
Nearing the half way mark of this bowl of early 2000s Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Watching Mad Dog Russo.
How great can it get? Wonderful pipe! And the Capstan tobacco aswell. Enjoy!
Kramer’s Father Dempsey & a Tekin
Carolina Red 23’ in a natural 999 Deluxe Classic. I like this blend and love this pipe. Accompanied by a quality Earl Grey. I’ve learned it’s not worth saving a few bucks when it comes to Earl Grey, always get the highest grade you can find.
Some Standard Mixture in a Dunhill ODA Shell Canadian.
Close to finishing this bowl of year 2020 Watch City Rouxgaroux in a smooth medium bend 2021 Peterson POTY Natural 4AB No. 6/500 military mount with a silver cap and a tapered black vulcanite AB stem.
Ending the day with Dark Bird’s Eye in a Tekin.
If you haven’t ever smoked capt. black or any Drug store tobaccos in a kaywoodie are you even a pipe smoker? I enjoy capt black and a lot of originals and get back to basics of true pipe smoking.
Enjoying some "Shadrac Blend" from 2012, from my old YT friend Shadrac. It's a nice blend of SG 1792 Flake, Esoterica Penzance, and a Virginia base. Smoking my CAO Sherlock Holmes meerschaum.
LJ Peretti Tashkent in a Rossi Piccolo.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and have a third of a bowl left of year 2019 Seattle Pipe Club Deception Pass plug in a smooth straight brown late 1930s Linkman’s Dr. Grabow Deluxe Bruyere 9703B pot with a nickel accent and a black tapered vulcanite stem.
You guys keep mentioning C&D Exclusive this month, so I pulled out my jar. This was a little flat to me the last time I smoked it, 
but in my Musico acorn, which I use for smoking OJK, Three Friars, and the like, this stuff just sings! Right pipe, right baccy. Bam!
I followed that up with some Autumn Evening in my Piersel Dublin. Man! I haven't smoked any of this in years. I cracked a sealed jar from about 4 or 5 years ago. (Didn't put a date on it unfortunately. Oh well.) I see it disparaged a fair bit, but I've gotta say; this stuff burns with easy, tastes good, and I claim it even contains nicotine. YMMV. I think this stuff is great for breaking in a pipe. The last thing I smoked in the new pipe was Amphora Full and it was a bit like trying to smoke wet newspaper. (Apparently I need to dry out my Amphora! (Duh.)) But the Autumn Evening burned right down to the bottom of the chamber until I tasted the briar. No manipulation required. This pipe's going to be a good smoker I reckon.

Go scream at Amazon for Royalties LOL
We had good national press, our record company spent so much on the record they hardly had anything left for distribution. It didn’t get promoted right and then we broke up, which never helps!A small label just pressed a vinyl release this year. We are basically sitting on it till we figure out how to promote it. There could be a reunion show but that would be a stretch for all of us. we will see.
WHFS is DC area? I got to record at inner ear studios in DC and put out a record when I was 14, that was a blast. It was punk rock and not so super.
Oh wow, so if the Promotion goes well, you might get back into the music scene?
