  1. Black Eden: The Idlewild Community is a good starting point for information on Idlewild, it's history in northern Michigan (though as someone who lives further north, I consider it mid-Michigan), and it's future. I bought this at the Idlewild Historic and Cultural Center when we went down last summer to visit. This book is over 20 years old now so some stuff has changed over time, but it does still provide a good bit of information.

  2. Idlewild – Idlewild
    (Indie-Rock, Alternative-Rock / V2 Records)
    by Der Riedinger

    Sie haben es ins Vorprogramm von U2 und Pearl Jam geschafft, haben die Welt (für sich) entdeckt. Und nun bieten sie uns „Idlewild“, ein Album, welches die Quintessenz des bisherigen „Lebens“ der Band darstellt. Ein Rückblick auf das bisherige Dasein, gleichzeitig womöglich ein Blick in die Zukunft der Band.

    Scottish alternative rock veterans Idlewild return with their self-titled album via V2 Records. Singles like “Stay Out of Place”, “It’s Not the First Time”, and “Like I Had Before” have gained heavy BBC 6 Music rotation, reaffirming Idlewild’s enduring artistry and emotional depth.

  4. Where I am from these are called pudding rocks. And this is the largest pudding rock I have ever seen. And I have seen some large ones before.

  5. Beach at Idlewild. It was hot today so there were some kids out there swimming. It was a very cute beach area. I want to take a picnic and spend the day there sometime!

  6. Art installation at the Flamingo Club in Idlewild. The Flamingo is not operational, but is still standing. I am not sure if the community still uses the building for anything, but there is art work on the front of it with an explanation of each piece and the artist's name and this installation. It is well maintained.

  7. My husband and I are in Idlewild for the weekend. We made it to the museum half an hour before they closed. Loved looking around at the pictures and history of the area. We will be headed to the music festival tomorrow morning, but just relaxing tonight.

  10. The #Idlewild Historic District and Woodland Park have both been added to the “What’s Out There Guide to African American Cultural Landscapes” from The Cultural Landscape Foundation. #michigan

  11. Somehow my brain decided to get American English by #Idlewild stuck in my head again.

    My brain also is now turning it into a song about #Minecraft, after first correcting the incorrect #lyrics all over the internet.

    If you enjoy this song, the correct lyrics are in the attached images (with full alt text).

    Song for those who don't know it:

  12. #nyc #nyct #nyctsubway #subway 1949. The Floyd Bennet field is still used back then and the #Idlewild Airport. The Rockaways didn't even have a rail link yet! That came later as a special fare posh line...

    1940 was the year of the unification of the three private transit companies to a NYC owned system.

  13. #Idlewild is one of those bands that never made it 'big' even though they deserved it. 22 years later and I still love this record.

  14. Each winter there comes a day when it feels right and inevitable that I should start listening to 100 Broken Windows by #idlewild on heavy rotation.

    Today is that day.

    Maybe it’s the album art, maybe it’s the bit in Bronze Medal about throwing the radio on the fire to keep warm. Whatever it is, it’s the perfect cold weather #music.
