Yikes. I get that it sucks when your heroes fall from grace, but this is an embarrassing piece of writing. If your argument's sole support is that known asshole Bret Easton Ellis agrees with you, your argument is probably fucked.Bill in CT wrote:“What Happened to Ryan Adams?”

i betcha money it's whiney.
Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
Honestly it's some of his best writing. I understand anyone's reason not to listen to it, but if you can separate the art from the artist it's a brilliant midnight record.
Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
I started listening to it and got bored pretty quick. Which has been my reaction to his last few records. Christ, he hasn't made a truly great record in probably 15 years.

Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
Looking at the song titles, that would have been my guess.
Don't hurt people, and don't take their stuff.
Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
Shots fired at Isbell, from the song "Birmingham"
I actually like this song better than anything off Reunions. I'm not Team Adams as far as they go as humans.Held her hand in Old Savannah
Marigold print on her dress
Her hair was combed and parted
Like a beautiful princess
I didn’t see you at the altar
Way back then you were so drunk
You were washed up on some hooker’s bed
Behind a shitty restaurant
So when the wind blows in your window
'Cause the storm don't give a damn
Pray the window don't break
Across the wrist of your writing hand
On a stationary wet with tears of the peoples backs you stab
When you're hiding like a robber
With no one's purse to grab
Remember me standing there holding out my hand
In a broken down hotel in Birmingham

Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
how does that tie in w/ Jason?
Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
Jason and Adams were really close back in the day. Adams was really involved in Isbell's sobriety. Isbell gave him a ton of credit for helping him get his shit together. Allegedly, Isbell (pre-sobriety) was supposed to be in Adams' wedding, but got drunk with a hooker instead (incident referenced here) of showing at the event.
When Adams was accused of creepy behavior, Isbell dropped him like a sack of potatoes, very quickly, and very publicly. Isbell has taken a few more shots at Adams since then (recently on Twitter about his only bad review coming from a wannabe music and pinball critic). It seems pretty clear that these lines are about Isbell.
For the record, I think it's pretty obvious that Adams is a much shittier person than Jason, I just found it interesting.

Re: Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.
Sounds like an unpaid free lance gig given the 5 person overlap between the TMZ and alt-country audiences.cortez the killer wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 11:03 pmIowan should cover the alt.country scene for TMZ.tinnitus photography wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 10:46 pmthx for the background?Iowan wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 5:23 pm

Clearly my investigative journalism and editorial skills are sufficient for the TMZ gig.

As ridiculous as that sounds, in this day and age, the gimmick just might have some appeal.
