Someone posted to the sugar-list a link to http://modulate.blogspot.com, which turns out is Bob Mould’s personal weblog. As I said in reply to the mailing list:

I’m imagining pretty-tall Bob tooling around washington dc on that
pretty-small scooter, and it’s pretty-funny.

That said, it’s a thoughtful and impressive entry into the world of
weblogs..I’ve seen a bunch of musicians blogs/journals, and I can’t think
of any that are more interesting or thoughtfully written. I hope he keeps
it up.

It’s really nice when musicians give us, the listening public, a little glimpse into their creative process, or even their daily life. Mike Watt has his hootpage which he updates with great frequency, Moby has a journal that’s updated almost every day. Lou Barlow does crazy handwritten updates that are scanned in, and seems to design his site himself. They’re all certainly different executions, but it’s more or less the same concept. Another creative outlet for very creative people, and a way for them to keep in touch with fans. I heartily approve
