Probably you need to uninstall one of the latest updates. There was one recently that broke context menus on the taskbar and also searching on the windows menu.

David Gilmour Guitar Collection[^]
He auctioned off over 120 instruments and artifacts. Knowing the "Black Strat" is no longer in his hands brings a tear to the eye.

Apples to oranges from my point of view. Little Feat is not David Gilmore (or Pink Floyd), but David Gilmore is not Little Feat.
But if you want to make that comparison within the genre of prog rock, I might consider that David Gilmore has nothing on King Crimson. King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man - YouTube[^] ( I especially enjoy the section that begins at 8:00)
Even with that opinion, my enjoyment of Gilmore will be in no way diminished.

I've been a fan since 1984.
I was lucky enough to see them at the Silverdome in 1994, "the first show". After the original show sold out in minutes they added a 2nd show the day before the original first show. The one I was at was the first time they played The Dark Side of the Moon live, in its entirety, in 25 years. That was a treat.
Sadly, the acoustics in the dome left much to be desired. It also didn't help that I was in the upper bowl off the left end of the stage, about 50 feet in front of a massive speaker stack. My ears are still ringing to this day.
The FloydPodCast has a recording of that very show here[^]. Skip to 12:40 for the start of it.

Apparently I'm in the minority, which kind of surprises me in this case.

It's whiskey and bad cocaine...poison get you just the same...and if that don't kill you soon, the women will down at the Spanish Moon! I remember where I was when I heard Lowell George had died.
Then add Linda Ronstadt Linda Ronstadt- All That You Dream(Live)With Little Feat - YouTube[^]

Never heard of them, but apparently they've been around for a long time and have influenced lots of other bands.
Jimmy Page called them his favorite band in 1975.
Sounds good, but not my cup of tea.
I have a friend who'd love this though.

Saw them in concert several years back, they still rock.
One of the best concerts I've been too!

ASP.NET, yuck.
Razor, yuck.
Even ASP.NET Core, ok, the pipeline concept is cool but it's so obtuse as to how to actually use it, and when you don't need it, how do you get rid of it, etc., etc.,
Basically, all of these technologies I've had to spend more time figuring out why they don't work than actually getting work done.
For example:
My latest adventure with Razor was refactoring an email template to handle multiple "you have been assigned a task..." messages, rather than one email per task.
So I thought, ok, I'll just add a models field and code it like this:
foreach(var model in @Model.models)
and refactor the rest of the code to use @model.whatever rather than @Model.whatever
Well, something about Razor is arbitrarily case insensitive, so the above worked in some places and not in others.
And geez, look at the code it generated:
public class RazorEngine_2468f450d36643faac8694a9733cba74 : RazorEngine.Templating.TemplateBase<.entityType in Foo.</a>> {
That piece, "entityType in Foo" is supposed to be part an inner div, like <div>@model.entityType in Foo<div>
But foreach(var modelInfo in @Model.models) and used as @modelInfo.whatever, well that worked fine.
POC.

There was a bloke lurking out the front of my house yesterday. He was sticking bits of paper into slots in a box that I'd never noticed before.
I asked him what he was doing and he explained that there is this thing where you can write a message on a piece of paper and give it to someone who gives it to someone and then they give it to someone ... and eventually someone sticks it in the box outside the house of the person you wrote the message to.
And they get it. But most intriguing of all is that when they get it, and they read it, they are highly unlikely to contract ebola!

Sounds to me you guys would love to emulate or at least read Terry Pratchett's Postoffice.
Don't let it interfere with your coding, though

Binding (such as it is) to controls uses model, iterating a collection (in the markup) uses Model.
Don't ask why - just accept it and grudgingly get on with the project.
It's a web dev zen thing.
For the record, I hate web dev work as well, but right now, it's a beans/table thing.
