Social media is not social experience. The bread and butter of companies like Meta is pulling peoples attention onto their platforms. Once here, our attention is harvested for ad revenue. We are led to believe that this is all a social interaction, but are we really spending time with anyone at all?

Between the random political posts, I’ll be doing my due diligence of keeping the music up front. Apple this time. It’s everywhere else. It’s new, for you, maybe.
Give it a listen to hear about; riding dirty, unspoken love, sociopaths turned cops, driving 95 south, NE, the iron heel, busking etc
“Mr. Burgum’s view of the public lands as assets to be exploited is wildly shortsighted and simplistic.”
The value of land is immeasurable. Towns, counties, states, conservancy organizations, land trusts should hold on to as much public hand to be held and used for public good. Whether it’s losing the common at Copley or hundreds of thousands of acres in Utah and Arizona, public land is for the public.

Trump regime just arrested the Mayor of Newark Ras Baraka and roughed up two Democratic members of Congress for standing up to ICE. Here is Rep. Menendez, Jr. slamming ICE for their attack on Democratic officials. Nothing makes MAGA happier than arresting a Black Mayor and beating up Democrats.
Mayor of Newark arrested for trying to enter an illegally constructed detention center in his city. ICE is the secret police.
Getting ready for Thursday night @ the Square Root starting at 7 or so. Our host, Glenn Williams will take us through the night. Join us for songs and stories!

I once took part in a protest movement that I thought would help bring about a more economically egalitarian society. It could have, but it lacked demands. When the time comes for a general strike, we need coherent demands. Not too reductive, not awash in causes. This is about saving our democracy.

Boston based producers? Is that a thing? Of the multi-instrumentalist, songwriting, recording, jack of all trades variety?
Really hoping some Berkelee kids start chiming in

Playing with the band today. Getting some “lead sheets” together for those who don’t know their Nashville numbers. My high school music teacher would not be happy, but I am!

Working with some folks to make this thing into a band. Also writing some more music to put into the queue should I ever end up recording again. In the meantime, take a listen if you haven’t already

At what point do we call a spade a spade and say we live in a kleptocracy?
Last year I spent three days in North Carolina with fellow Carolina Chocolate Drops member Justin Robinson to record 'What Did the Blackbird Say to the Crow,' an album of North Carolina fiddle and banjo music, which is now coming out April 18 on @nonesuch.com.
