If it were Chicago, I can imagine "steam rising" could be a homeless person on a steam grate, but in downtown Birmingham it seems like actual "innards". Though it is part of his early catalog, the "time travel" within a song, or the "shifting perspective" (see "Filthy and Fried") is a common theme....

Re facebook, I think it's pretty clear that FB has pretty much completely squashed 99% of the message boards that were popular in the 2000's and early 2010's. I think it's also pretty clear that message boards are a superior way of discussing archane topics (such as bands) than are Facebook groups....

after hearing this 3 nights in a row at HHC 2024, this song has been in my head, and after sharing it with my 21-year-old son (who happens to live in Chicago), I got to thinking (I know, dangerous stuff), which led me back to this thread, and I am revisiting this song and trying to unpack it First ...

Sort of sorry for the mixed movie references. It's Florida, Jake. Always has been and always will be, Elwood. It was one thing when the most likely victims were the elderly, the fat and the otherwise not suitable for prime time. But now they're taking direct aim at kids. "They" being the vaccine de...

The answer to why is capitalism. It's not all that complicated nor does it require any sort of soul-searching. There's money to be made and that is the only thing that matters. Whether it's selling weapons to both parties involved in a war or using Ticketmaster dynamic pricing for life-saving drugs,...

I think this is my favorite HHC since I have started going back every year in 2019, and that's even counting the fact that I was contending with some sort of stomach ailment the whole week that made me not push it much in regards to doing anything outside of pre-show dinner and going to the shows. T...

I have zero issue with the Bucks firing Griffin but my god I do not want the Doc Rivers experience.

Can't wait to see this. The Von Erichs need a 12 hour docuseries made on their story. Maybe the f...

Flights are absurd right now. Been holding off on booking for this weekend because the airfare is about $150 more than normal for me. Hopefully they'll drop post-holidays. This has been my experience too and not just for the Athens trip. But recently I've seen a spate of articles about how the airl...

DBT in Athens 2/14-17
Zach Bryan in Milwaukee 3/20
Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band in SF 3/28 & 3/31
Charles Wesley Godwin in Madison 4/13
Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in SF 10/4-10/6
Zach Bryan in Sacramento 11/29

Like this one a lot.

As a Day Zero Jordan Love believer, these last couple of months have been very satisfying.

Absolute legend. (Also the Dale Jr Download is pretty much the best, IMO)

I think this is my lowest score.

On the heels of a two-Homecoming 2023, I don't think Athens is in the cards next year, pending a last-minute itch. I'll watch the setlists and feel immense regret and FOMO, that much I can promise. Will miss you, man. Will put you on my list of people who gets sent the setlist text as soon as the s...

2. Zach Bryan - "Zach Bryan"
3. Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit - "Weathervanes"
4. Turnpike Troubadours - "A Cat in the Rain"
5. Lucero - "Should've Learned By Now"
