I heard this answer song for the first time yesterday on WFMU:

Tim Heidecker's whole On Cinema/HEI Network story arc ending with him literally running Infowars is just a mind-melting long-term bit. World record stuff.

If they’re still doing Friedbergers-only, that’s accurate. Just piano and vocals.

I like him even more in his Old Coot era.

Best in the biz!

(tbh Benetti/Kruk and even [sigh…] Anthony Rizzo have been pretty entertaining.)

My early season enthusiasm about NBC’s Sunday Night Baseball is being eroded with each Chickfila line dancing commercial.

Pass the word!

I did not know how bad it was going for the Mets until I saw them playing Tommy Pham today. I own a Tommy Pham shirsey and take no pleasure in observing this.

My “Scottsdale is just Naperville in the desert” take fits right in here.

The Messthetics continue their heavy jazz-punk explorations with saxophonist James Brandon Lewis - Chicago Reader D.C. trio the Messthetics combine jazz and punk, but that was never the far-fetched proposition it might sound like on the surface.

I also wrote about the Messthetics and James Brandon Lewis

This auction item is crazy. Jerry Weintraub at one point managed both Bob Dylan and Neil Diamond, so he had a reversible satin jacket made that, depending which way you wore it, said "Dylan" or "Diamond" on the back.

It's on the to-do list already, I'll bump it up!

The algorithm took me from AdP to this cool and similarly jam-adjacent band. What's going on in Quebec?

🚨 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
I have a new book coming out on Sept. 8. It's about The Strokes and the evolution (or de-evolution) of rock bands in the 21st century. And you can pre-order it now! If you would like to know more I wrote about it here. tinyurl.com/msvtk5rm

Maybe this leads to the Day of the Dead effect for Phish. Somebody call a Dessner.

If I'm being more precise, it really seems like "prog you can dance to" is ascendant as an indie flavor right now, and that's a pretty accurate description of Phish.

Rare early archival photo of Angine de Poitrine.

I have no idea if Angine de Poitrine improvise, but their music is very "intricate composed part before the jam" coded. They should cover "The Curtain."

That itch has a name, and it's "jambands".

Help Fund a Vegas Grant! - Phish.net Phish.net is a non-commercial project run by Phish fans and for Phish fans.

Excited to announce that @mbird.org has a new way to collect donations with zero fees!

We have a $6,000 grant planned for a school music program in need in Vegas if we can raise the funds. Who can help us make this tour grant for the Sphere run a reality?

Even a small donation helps! #phish

But I'm glad the show video confirms my foggy memory of the crazy energy mismatch between Neil and the rest of them on this tour.

So 2000 it hurts.

i thought "ah! a fan-shot video of a complete 2000 CSNY show?" and was not quite prepared for how it opened. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWIP...

The industry plant story about Geese is an industry plant to get everyone to listen to "Taxes" on Tax Day.

You expect Ken to just sit on a blockbuster quote about grit from a longtime assistant college baseball coach?

Oops two days early.

Together? Am I booking tours in my sleep?
