You decide: Marjorie Taylor Greene on Presidents' Day: “We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government,” Greene, R-Ga., said in the tweet. “Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our...

https://www.ticketnews.com/2023/02/tanking-tulsa-date-shows-springsteen-using-floor-pricing-on-tour/ Similar story here in Austin. I (very angrily) pass on tickets during pre-sale as they were well beyond insane. Last minute ticket, while still expensive, was much more reasonable. I'd guess prices d...

George strait with the Austin intro

It was pretty cool!

Damn, what a show. The Boss delivers. Always.

Tonight. The Boss.

Wife surprised me with a ticket for Valentines Day.

Let me say upfront that I have not watched any of the Republican hearings and I do not intend to watch any in the future. I have read something like the bare minimum necessary to be informed which seems like plenty to me but it is possible that I'm missing some detail or nuance. But based on what I...

We've been out of power here in Austin for eight days YIKES! All well in the pearlbeer house and household? All good. The ice storm knocked close to 400,000 people out of power. TONS of trees down. It took a long time to get everything put back together. We drew the great luck of being one of the l...

Wow, great nominee list. And, holy shit, I didn't think I'd live long enough to see Warren Zevon nominated! Someone must have drugged Jan.

The War on Drugs Austin City Limit show is now streaming for free. It is a great performance. Adam Granduciel's pedal rig is amazing. It looked like a space station. I mean there must have been 200 pedals. I remember counting 19 keyboards. Anyway, its a great performance - you guys will enjoy. [medi...

Very excited for a show Saturday. I go every year, and it's consistently one of my very favorite shows of the year. Terry Allen and the Panhandle Mystery Band at The Paramount in Austin. The Paramount is a 100 year old theater (Houdini performed there) and is the perfect place to host so many Texas...

i think the initial record you hear from a band you grow to love always takes the top or near top position.

yes

God, if I had a nickel for everytime Clams has gushed to me about Backstreet's Back by the Backstreet Boys...

Then the big event: Bruce on Feb 27. It'll be 45 years after my first ride with the Boss. Egads, I'm older than dirt! https://scontent-bos5-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/327315665_577842497172685_3179970053511960604_n.jpg?_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=txmAAIIzB3gAX87O0aJ&_nc_ht=scontent...

BTCD was my entry point into the world of DBT. I heard Self Destructive Zones on XM radio one day in Feb 2008 while in my car at lunch. It was like being hit on the head with a sledge hammer (but in a goood way). I had never heard of DBT. I immediately checked them out online, next thing you know I...

In other laughable news the House Oversight and Accountability Committee will receive two new members, who are known for their commitment to accountability. Marjorie Taylor Green - "Wildfires are caused by Jewish Space Lasers" Paul Gosar - "We are controlled by Flouride in the Water" (he's a dentist...

https://bad-faith-times.ghost.io/the-bowel-shaking-bad-faith-of-the-debt-ceiling-bullshit/ Haven't read the article yet but that blurb sounds 100% on target to me. It's truly unbelievable. My huge gripe with the coverage is all of the (potential) drama about the consequences of default. I think MUC...

"SCOTUS unable to identify source of Dobbs leak"


I'll be the first one to call BULLSHIT.

So McCarthy punished the lying freshman from Long Island by putting him on a couple of House committees. I swear, the political and wtf threads should just be combined into one.

...and yet Al Franken was forced to resign for pretending to touch a boob one time.

Kick ass man! What a cool and varied list. Some great shots in there as well.

https://i.ibb.co/PwVWYjM/FDA67-BDD-E7-A1-4346-B466-12-A353-EF5-D3-E.jpg Great title. Just peeped this album. It's pretty good. I've been admittedly suspicious of Zach Bryan, given his rapid rise to popularity. However, I'll admit I was wrong. Seems to be the real deal. I've heard a few other albums...

Good one! Always enjoy your expert playlists, Cortez...

Try as I might I couldn't find Fiddy: Steely Dan, so here's a formal request.
