  1. DA not pressing charges https://www.statesman.com/story/sports/college/longhorns/football/2025/03/08/xavier-worthy-arrest-texas-kansas-city-chiefs-williamson-county/82060143007/
  2. @tbone_ I think I'll wear it out tonight to see The Macks.
  3. A high percentage of them are blaming Doge/Musk and not Trump. They're a package deal shit for brains.
  4. Saw Ty Segall & King Tuff acoustic show. Really intimate and cool. Ty was working the merch table. Said he and Kyle (King Tuff) hand drew the posters themselves. Was very personable and chatted with everybody that came by. Got free tickets to see Orions Belte a couple of days later. They are a Norwegian band that is hard to put a label on - psych jazz? Really interesting and groovy. On the 4th of March I went to see MarchFourth. Imagine the lovechild of a marching band and Cirque du Soleil. It was fun as hell. Everyone in the venue was dressed up in costume but I got the most attention because I was in full Devo jumpsuit and powerdome. Always a party when I wear it. This saturday I'm going to see The Macks. Local Portland band but they kill it. Saw them open for Wine Lips last year - also in my Powerdome.
  5. That's a good point.
  6. I get the money/prestige/ego angle of being a low draft pick but I wouldn't mind Texas players falling to better organizations and teams that are in contention.
  7. My backyard concerts will start back up in June. You can look for backyard at the barage on FB or insta in lieu of a newsletter. I look forward to all of the amazing art these trying times will inspire. I'm down for mushrooms.
  8. It was 70 and sunny yesterday. Played disc golf wednesday and thursday. It was beautiful. Gonna play again today then go see a concert tonight.
  9. No income tax here in Washington. No sales tax in Oregon. Liberal and LGBTQ friendly here on the left coast.
  10. Seems like a standard BO&W reaction to me.
  11. Picked up an assistant RB corch https://www.burntorangenation.com/2025/2/22/24370702/justin-garrett-texas-longhorns-assistant-running-backs-coach
  12. That Andre Jones update is just sad. What a waste of a life.
  13. I've got a bunch of shows lined up and can't stop myself from buying more tickets. 2/25 Ty Segall and King Tuff (acoustic solo shows by both) 3/15 Cold Cave 3/22 Wand 4/21 LA Witch & Daiistar 4/28 Teen Mortgage 5/10 Levitation Room 5/17 Cruel World Fest in Cali 6/6 Primus, Pucifer, & A Perfect Circle 9/14 Viagra Boys I'm currently contemplating pulling the trigger on aftermarket tickets to see Fontaines DC with Amyl & the Sniffers in London 7/5.

    SXSW 2025

    Man, I miss SXSW. I usually got a free wristband through work (AV equipment provider) but actually preferred the free day shows. I'd go on https://austin.showlists.net/ and map out my day. Start with whatever venue had free breakfast tacos or bloody marys then work my way over to venues that had free Lone Star. I'd pass out around 8pm and start the cycle over again the next day.
  15. They could still be friends though
  16. I think he's really underrated.
  17. I don't know if he'll get drafted but I'd bet that Bolden is going to make some team happy they signed him.
  18. I get the ego and money thing for earlier draft picks but going to a better run, more successful team isn't so bad either.
  19. https://www.yahoo.com/news/education-department-staff-warned-trump-032124645.html What kind of bullshit is this? Even if you take the buyout it could be cancelled at any time and you have no recourse.
  20. Sark is trying to keep his players healthy after a long season. They played more games than most teams. Though the poaching is probably factored in as well. Sounds like he's in favor of transitioning to a more NFL style offseason.
  21. Hermanos Gutierrez is also amazing. When I saw them last summer I could see that every woman in the venue was ready to get it on. Pure sexy time music.
  22. If you've finished The Stone Roses album try the Moon album by Motrik. Its pretty fucking good. The band all came out it black jumpsuits with red light glasses.
  23. my favorite out of that scene is The Charlatans UK. I got kicked out of the Black Angels/Daiistar show here in Portland a few months ago. I was an idiot and polished off the last of a cider as I walked in the door and threw away the empty can. Door guy was like, "we can't let you in. You're not allowed to bring an alcoholic beverage into the venue." I pled my case. "I walked in and threw the can away." No dice. He was on a power trip and wanted to be a dick. Seems like most door guys would have been like "you can't bring that in here. Don't do it again." Prick. My gf stayed for the show (and loved Daiistar) and I bounced to see The Mystery Lights and another venue.
  24. I don't know the answer to that question. I wish I had seen the Stone Roses after their first album came out. One of my favorite of all time. Gonna go put it on now. Thanks for reminding me.
  25. I had a great weekend of live music. A friend of mine recommended a show on Friday and I'm so glad he did. Both the headliner and opener were f'n awesome. Serpentfoot opened. I immediately noticed that they were heavily influenced by the Osees. So I was in - big time. By the end of their set the room was bouncing. Then Motrik hit the stage. They were blasting fog through traffic cones - apparently an homage to Devo. Hell Yes! Then we got an hour of heavy driven bass led krautrock. So good. Saturday night was a night of excellent psych rock. Elephant Stone was the headliner. I had seen them a few years before but this was by far the better performance. Amazing performance. The openers were Meteorite #4 and Sun Atom. Both were excellent but I really liked Sun Atom. They pulled me out of the bar area to the front of the stage with their music. I loved the whole night. I was also fortunate enough to grab posters for both shows to put up in my Barage.
