About That Day (opens the original)

Hello. You’ve reached Time & Temperature.It’s a somber day of remembrance, but remembering is good.On the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, The Atlantic ran a piece comprised of excerpts from the journal I’d kept on the days surrounding 9/11/01. I’d referenced the journal in conversation with an acquaintance and they mentioned it to a friend of theirs who was an editor at the magazine. I say this simply to make the point that I wasn’t going around pitching my 9/11 journal. In fact, I was hes

Hello. You’ve reached Time & Temperature. I’m back on the road with the Ooooold 97’s again, this time in the Midwest/Rust Belt of the old U.S. of A.Yesterday was Elvis Costello’s birthday, so I’ve got a mind to honor him by butchering one of his brilliant tunes.

The problem is if I write a new song two weeks before we finish work on the 97’s album it becomes a problem of WHY ISN’T THIS AWESOME SONG ON THE ALBUM?!? I know that’s stupid but, as we say in the Miller household

Hello. You’ve reached Time & Temperature.Between 2015 and 2025 I released four solo albums, signed copies of which are now available on my site. They all rock, but by definition and design, no two are alike, though the two in the middle were produced by Sam Cohen—even those couldn’t be much more dissimilar. I’m wildly proud of these albums and I hope you check them out if they somehow slipped past you amidst the noise of our everyday lives.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https
