Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
I like roundabouts. They ease the stop-start of traffic and reduce congestion. The problem with them has more to do with folks who either don't know how they work or suffer from me-first aggressive driving.

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
I don't know much and I don't know the details of the proposed deal or Elon Musk's plans for twitter but I do know combining the wealthiest person in the world and one of the biggest and most powerful social media platforms in the world is a very, very bad idea. It gives new, scary meaning to the o...

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
In addition to mindless bandwagon jumping with the grooming/pedophilia nonsense, they're not even using those terms correctly in the context they're shambling through.

I've been symptom-free, but paranoid of every little cough and tickle in my throat since returning. So far so good. Glad you're negative.

Elizabeth Nelson on Marquee Moon for The Ringer.

Re: The Fourth Night of My Thinking
Folks who know about such things have said that having Homecoming in Winter is a huge boon for the 40 Watt Club and helps them get through their slowest season.

Re: New album
And the sung lyric "welcome to club xiii" is much more of an earworm than it has any right to be. I agree. I've found myself humming it quite a bit since hearing it at Homecoming, but if I hadn't seen it performed live with the usual dollop of rock show gusto, I'm not sure how excited I'd be by it....

Bubba: Agreed on all counts. Have long thought an all-SRO show would be perfect. (And why did they drop "Road Cases" from the rotation?) Would also like to see them stick to the four-night format.

I'll second all the superlatives already uttered. Great writeup, Bubba. Question: Has any other DBT show ever featured a Status Quo cover among opener/band sets? Great cover of "Matchstick Men." I was talking with Stephen Deusner after the opener and mentioned the Quo cover and he offered that the s...

Agree with the above on all counts. A lot of highs, a few rough spots, some nice surprises, some old favorites. Great to see everyone I saw and looking forward to seeing more. And to three more mutherfuckin nights of this. A minor quibble: Did the sound not seem quite as loud and clear as it usually...

Booked a hotel room for 4/8 & 4/9. Not a sure thing by any means but there now is a chance that our respective HC streaks (Beth 2008, me 2009) will continue. We will see. Great news. The reschedule is a tad disappointing only because I was looking forward to the time off, but makes sense and probab...

Re: RIP Smitty
I can't remember who befriended me first back on 9B, but if not the first, Smitty was one of them. I feel bad, I feel bad for all of us, I mostly feel bad for his kids.
Whatever else he may or may not have been, he was a good dude.

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
I don't know why "Missouri Man" is not a thing. We've been giving Florida a good competition in the race to the bottom for a couple of decades, but never seem to catch the same national heat. At least Florida has Little Havana and the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing.
