Hotline TNT played a benefit for LUCE in JP tonight with How Much Art (fantastic), Can't Lose, Tracey Nelson, and Secondaries.

Lewis Capaldi at MGM, first gig with my 18 year old since the Rolie Polie Guacamole days.
A chunk of blue-grey fluff that is actually a very soft kitten sitting on a library desk. They are doing a very serious Kitten Face and have very intent yellow-gold eyes, and they would be so scary and fierce if they were more than six inches tall and not so hugely adorable when they tried to be judgey.
The news all sucks today.
Here's a kitten in a library!
I absolutely adore her
Nothing at the Sinclair with Full Body 2, Cryogeyser, and Violent Magic Orchestra who were unreal. I need more Japanese death rave in my life.
In which our heroine tries to pay for her subway fare by using a library card. Repeatedly. For many minutes.
Absolutely the best. They are recording right now. So excited to see the continued evolution.
Absolutely gobsmacked that my friendly AI Spotify DJ has pulled, from the very deep archive, Longwave's Wake Me When It's Over as an example of "dreampop soundscapes you might have missed"!!!
Seeing them here at the end of next month - tiny US venues!
This album is a nonstop horny party and I adore it
Gurriers at the Middle East Upstairs with Native Son. In which this Boston crowd was repeatedly told that the Philly crowd was better!
I kept saying it would be a fallow year for shows and then this happens so I guess I'm hitting the road. I'm crazy about Been Stellar, too. What a lineup.
The Mary Wallopers at the Paradise. First night of their American tour & the crowd was exuberantly VERY Irish, VERY Boston, and VERY drunk! What a kickoff!
Basht.

Shame
Madra Salach
Saw them a couple of times in 2000, once in Stoke, I think. Didn't really follow them after that.
130am in a club bathroom insisting to all the young women that they shouldn't wear tights and waste so many minutes of their life yanking them up!
Michael Shannon and Jason Narducy doing Lifes Rich Pageant. I will watch them cover every single REM album from now until the end of time - they are just SO good! Bobcat Goldthwait and Eugene Mirman opened.
I've listened to Opening Night about a thousand times already
Such a balm to the soul that show!
More like "Uggghh, must we????"

New Gorillaz, new Choses Sauvage, new Nothing, new Sheila Divine
The Nothing album cover makes my skin crawl. It's great though.
How's the new Gorillaz ey?
The Bell House is a Clash bar in Brooklyn, iykyk.
Sometimes you can be a Rather Old Person and then something utterly new comes along to completely blow your mind, what a time to be alive. This album got me back into music again in my forties.
What a beauty!
In my post-uni life, this was the soundtrack to putting make-up on before going out! Dreamy good times, full of potential!
Drop an album that was important to you when you were nineteen.

Can't get enough of the new Arctic Monkeys, fully regret not seeing Shame recently at the Brighton Music Hall, forever wishing Basht. would come to the US, and Launder a very recent discovery.
One thing about me is that I just want to see the same band play over and over a dozen times in a row. Seriously regretting not having gone to see Glare a second time.
