Imagine drinking a light beer to this song.
I just didn’t have the right mental lighter fluid. Fatherhood is biological, but being a dad is a state of mind. It’s got an Allman Brothers Band groove and the Grateful Dead’s irrepressible uncool it’s a dad-rock appletini. I spent Labor Day weekend in a cabin tending to a dingy charcoal grill that wouldn’t light properly, faced with the challenge of feeding seven other grown men. Los Colognes, “Baby, You Can’t Have Both” And before you can extend your hand out to say “ Miguel, wait,” he’s gone. Miguel doing his thing in the outro is a treasure, but like weekends, it doesn’t last nearly long enough. Mac’s own work-week drudgeries might not always be relatable, but the existential response is. And “Weekend” is more or less the kind of waiting-for-the-weekend song you think it is, but that doesn’t make it any less relevant. Mac’s GO:OD AM doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it is, indeed, good.
