Hey and wassup. This week, we’ve all returned/settled into our homes and are riffing about the best opening riffs. In Music Neüs we get a look at Van Morrison's anti-mask jams, listen to Vin Diesel's jaunt into music, and celebrate Shel Silverstein's birthday with his prequel to "A Boy Named Sue".

Then we get into our favorite opening riffs, that bit that just gets you fired up for the rest of the song. Got favorites? Hit up @jonahraydio and let us know.
