You make the Boston show? If so, how was she?

i did! review is almost done, should be up tmrw.

quite good, though i wished she had a little more fire at times. her band is great.

This is a cool find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSIrReTFJDo Good one. JTE's shirt cost more than his guitar lol i finally got your comment. I read the post from Justin's widow on "When We Were Close" and this is a good piece: https://tigerbeat.substack.com/p/when-we-were-close-by-jason-isbell

Decent, a bit unfocused, nothing too surprising, other than just how MANY "oh yeah, I remember that" moments there are.

big fan of her filmography i see?

solid record.

he now lives in watertown, but w/ all those spotify checks rolling in, he might be your neighbor soon. Have you checked out real estate prices in Watertown lately? ;) :o when i was looking for a place to buy in 2021, i originally started looking in Waltham and Watertown. not much caught my eye in W...

Holy shit! This guy's got 6 songs, SIX, with more than 100,000,000 listens on Spotify alone. One has had over 600,000,000! And I never heard of him until this thread. He's now in the cue because SIX but i have no idea who he is or what he sounds like. Three songs (w/ a total of over a billion liste...

https://i.scdn.co/image/ab67616d00001e0265a472d8326d4571bf725422 I was trying to see what all the hype was about with this record and just couldn't. It's passable and inoffensive. I like him but yeah it's nothing earth-shattering. i didn't know anything about the guy before i shot his set at Boston...

well to be fair to Neil, it's one thing to do a specific boycott and quite another to do a blanket one.

i don't really care either way since i use Plexamp to stream my digital library where i can get a signal.

True enough but with a new record and tour coming, seems to me he's back with his tail between his legs. I don't know the answer but i think we should check ticket sales for the tour before we decide Neil's terms of surrender. His statement said that all the other streaming services "have started s...

my copy of Dume came in yesterday's mail.

nice!

i actually saw Laura Jane Grace open for Green Day, with her band Against Me!

Jason's recent selfie game on social media is......strong ?

Doing the teeth was a dead giveaway.

he's starting up a Bowie tribute band. Sacrifices must be made.

Shows I've seen since posting about Elder:

Madonna
Bong Wish/Mountain Movers/Heathen Shame
Oliver Tree/FIDLAR
Bobby Bare Jr
Forever Since Heedfest (4 GBV cover bands)
Michael Shannon/Jason Narducy play Murmur
Mitski
Neck Deep/Drain
Cat Power
The Kills
Das Damen/Thalia Zedek Band/Sleepyhead

This is a cool find:

hey BtB, i saw a facebook post that eerily mirrored yours: I had to go back to work while I'm here in Portland and I just got my benefits package. I'm an RN and the hospital I work for owns the health insurer that runs the plans (kind of like Kaiser but not quite). To insure my family (medical, dent...

Buddy Miles - Them Changes Wow, nice one. Going way back in the time machine. i saw Bob Fay (ex-Sebadoh drummer, worked at In Your Ear records in Boston and gave me tons of good recommendations when i first moved into Boston) post about this record a couple of months ago and i found a copy in my lo...

today's pile so far:

Bedhead - Beheaded
Buddy Miles - Them Changes
ZZ Top - Tejas
Umberto - Prophecy of the Black Widow

today's stack:

The Chameleons - Strange Times
Neil Young - Zuma
Neil Young - Time Fades Away
Beach House - S/T
Beach House - Depression Cherry

i never saw the doc or paid much attention to the song lyrics so this comes at a total shock to me.

But if the goal is eroding faith and trust in our institutions, job well done. The Congress is fucking useless, old, corrupt and incompetent.

Mic drop.

and if the non-olds vanguard are shitheads like Gaetz, Boebert, MTG and Stefanik - well, we're fucked.

yeah i have no excuses for not having gone to that 50th anniversary thing at the Paradise in 2018.

Neil Young - On The Beach

a true masterpiece. this record never gets old.

it's a full-on Kungens Män weekend. finishing up w/ the box set.

i pulled my copy of Physical Graffiti from the shelves last weekend but i still think HotH is their best record.

I really love Tropical Fuck Storm. Was supposed to see them a year ago but the one woman got sick. Hope she's doing ok.

yeah i think Fiona had some sort of cancer? She was in The Drones too, might be Gareth's partner iirc.

The Drones were one hell of a rock band. i can't quite get on w/ TFS in the same way but i do need to see them play live.
