Yes, that is a myopically American take. PANdemics are, by the very definition of the word, global. Global HIV/AIDS deaths to date are aprox. 42 million, far in excess of the aprox. 7 million global COVID deaths so far.
HIV/AIDS was a far worse pandemic in terms of lives lost, but your statement holds true for the HIV/AIDS pandemic, too
They need to just play Garand. Give him a chance and find out what they've got in him. If he does really well, that might answer the question of who Drury pencils in for backup for next season. And if he isn't up to the task, tanking a few games now isn't a bad thing in regard to the draft.
Playing tonight at Madison's Cafe CODA with a killer band of Aruṇ Lūthrā, Nick Moran, & Mitch Shiner!

😲 This is THE most amazing thing I've seen this year. (And that's saying something!)
A ResistDance retelling of ICE murdering Renee Good & Alex Pretti enacted through dance‼️😭
Performed by First Amendment Troop in DC. 🤍
This team is going to be dreadful for the rest of this season. If they had a bunch of young prospects to call up and for extra ice time to, it would be fine, but we're just going to see a lot of Raddysh, Brodzinski and Miller.
Nice to get that third round pick back that Drury paid for him; it's a better return than I expected.
Thank you, Dave!
Taking advantage of the icy weather to get some outdoor skating in at the local park and enjoyed watching the Madison Parks Department clearing the ice

Oof.
I'm still mad at Drury for forcing out Kreider (who is 10G6A16P in 19 games with the 🦆) the way he did, but finally making room in the top 6 for a #1 draft pick to play his natural LW position has been way overdue.
"Blind Spot," the 2nd single from "Not Tired" is now out: ffm.to/blind_spot
I hope you like it! Raucous tune, played by great band. Nick Moran, bass; Ingrid Jensen, trumpet; Dayna Stephens, saxophone; Adam Nussbaum, drums; Mitchell Shiner, vibraphone; and me on piano.

Thanks for the tireless efforts by the wonderful Staci Griesbach, Wisconsin's Door County has a new jazz festival! It's a full week of great music, and I'm honored to bring Precarious Towers to Fish Creek on Tuesday, Aug 5. Free, 5-7 pm in Fish Creek at the Historic Noble Square
No.
The last three weeks have been exhausting, but it has been an absolute joy to witness our students' final concerts, senior recitals, grad recitals, doctoral defenses and research presentations. Seeing ambitious people challenge themselves and thrive (or even just survive) is so life affirming ♥️
@cityofmadison.bsky.social third time that building/business has been hit by a car; time to install some bollards? 🤔
It's Bandcamp Friday, when the Bandcamp platform waives their revenue share and passes the funds directly to artists & labels. Here is a link to @mitcheltree.bsky.social and my new duet album (★★★½ Downbeat Magazine; "a collaboration between musical titans" — Something Else!)

This Saturday, at Madison, WI's Cafe Coda! I'm looking forward to playing with Arun Luthra's Konnakol Jazz Project, featuring saxophonist/konnakol artist/composer/bandleader Arun Luthra, bassist Nick Moran, and drummer Mitch Shiner.
i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

At the Grape in Ventura, playing with a couple of my oldest and best friends, Dennis Mitcheltree @mitcheltree.bsky.social , tenor saxophone, and Andy Sanesi, drums. Bassist Will Lyle is fitting right in as well.
AAJ review for Holding Space: "there is no denying the genuine esprit de corps on display here, and there is delight in hearing two fine musicians spend an enjoyable hour in the studio strutting their stuff."
Thanks, Downbeat Magazine for the nice review of Dennis @mitcheltree.bsky.social and my new album Holding Space, out now on @shiftingparadigm.bsky.social Records.
I'd like to bring this video to your attention.

It's doing pretty significant numbers for what it is, so while I understand sharing it won't make a difference for those knee-deep in the cult of personality, I'd say it has a better-than-average chance of resonating.
