I never saw the Replacements with Bob, and only once with Chris.

Built to Spill are good, but Wussy might be the best band around, don't miss them on a rare tour

Dreams of Dance Floors, by Sidewalk Diamonds 10 track album

Happy Bandcamp Friday! We're getting ready to record a whole new batch of songs, but our first Sidewalk Diamonds album has been called "something special" and "really fun" by better musicians than us.

Come see us live at Barely Brothers records on March 21!

I'm increasingly convinced that republicans somehow make money every time they say "i never said that"

I've used progressive lenses for a few years, and it's really nice to see both near and far with the same glasses. BUT, since i'm on a computer all day i also got a single vision pair optimized for monitor use, and that's much nicer than bobbing my head around while working at the same distance.

Dad's dad: farmer, ran the family farm past 100 years since its founding but saw no future in it and pushed all their kids to college and other careers.

Mom's dad: high school band teacher, taught some later famous musicians, after retirement played with the Shriner's Oriental band.

I can imagine an early Who concert where the audience singing "you are forgiven" is on par with an audience at a Mountain Goats show singing This Year.

We’re creating a whole new kind of second-class citizen: those who know nothing beyond what AI tells them

Just when you didn't think capitalism could get worse, we start making everything into gambling too.

OK, one last time: all 3 bands are great; we have several months of bottled-up energy and a bunch of wild new shit to drop. We should get rolling at 8 or a little after, so you could even get home in time to get a decent night's sleep after the adrenaline wears off

This era of Ibanez basses isn't my style, but they're really solid, well-made instruments, better than they need to be for the price.

Find someone who loves you like Lindsay Graham loves the taste of boots.

This is right. And people hate to hear it, but Joe Biden’s single most important task was to Trump-proof the US.

His task was to destroy the Republican Party to punish them for Trump, salt the earth over them, and implement big structural reforms to stop future R minority extremism.
And he failed.

B does a better job of creating the virtuous circle

I should get one of these to wear with my St. Paul jacket

MN should have done this too (should do it now). If we’re upholding the law, punish the feds who have broken laws during their campaign of terror.

You can do like we did and replace it with a fabric liner, so you only have to trim and hem it once!

And then bleach the bottom every 6 months when it gets gross and mildewy
