RIP Mike Peters of The Alarm. I picked the band based on the name (like REM and U2) when I signed up for the Columbia Record and Tape Club (tape dude here). Great album back in the day - great messages too.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.
