This song is a bit of a turkey day tradition for many, and I’ve enjoyed it since I was a kid. Happy Thanksgiving everyone, whatever you’re thankful for.

Ok, that done, it’s important that we not forget the hypocrisy of this day’s ostensible origins, like so many of our holidays. I wish every American would spare a thought today, and every day, for the way Native Americans (and indeed all people of color) have been treated here throughout history, and strive to be better than our ancestors.

PSA over, I sincerely hope you all have a great day with family or whomever you spend it with.

...and how did Alice’s Restaurant become a Thanksgiving thing? It seems the only link is that the story starts with tossing trash from Thanksgiving.

But I don’t want a pickle! I want to ride on my motor-cickle. And I don’t want to die, I want to ride on my motor cy (kul).

KPIG out of Santa Cruz does it at 9, noon, and 3, and my old local indy station did the same before KPIG took over.

That’s how, right there in the song. All it took, I guess, and it’s been tradition for decades since.

We are counting down to noon when I will play it. We’re dealing with meal prep until then.

Wrong side of the country for that show, but I sure would love to see him.

Look for a suitable date, these people aren’t touring forever.
