    New Music 2024

    Yeah. Vedder mentioned the new album at the Ft Worth show and said they were performing at peak musicianship or something to that effect. Looking forward to the album and the tour. Wife wants to see them in Seattle. I hope that it works out with dates and work commitments.
  3. I got a four wheel drive and found is useful for the drive in and out of Waipio Valley. According to the googles, the road that accesses the valley is now closed except to locals. I recommend doing Mauna Kea at sunset at the mauna kea visitors center. When I was there in 2010, they would set up telescopes and volunteers would point out the stars with a laser pointer every night. Anyone could drive up and attend. It was a highlight of the trip. It appears that this is only done once a month and reservations are required. Bummer. https://www.lovebigisland.com/stargazing/
  4. If you’re in Oban, stop by the Oban distillery and find a bottle of the 2007 distilled 2021 bottled Oban Distiller’s Edition. My wife went to Scotland for 10 days and brought back this bottle. Of the 10 or so bottles she brought or had shipped back, it’s our favorite. Can’t find this specific bottle in the US.
  5. Ted at the airport, and it’s cold outside? It’s goddamn layup to yell “Hey Ted! You headed to cancun again?”
  6. The Record Company brought it tonight. Opened strong with Life to Fix. Based on their social media posts, I get the feeling this may be their last shot at making it. If you get an opportunity, I recommend seeing them. I think their music translates better live than on their albums. It sounds stronger live in my opinion.
  7. This reads like the warning for happy fun ball. Do not taunt cybertruck
  8. Party of personal responsibility
  9. When I was 18 and a freshman at OU, I was an undiagnosed type 1 diabetic. My body was breaking down and I didn’t know why. It started sometime in the summer after graduating high school in norman. After a couple months, I was in bad shape but just kept motoring on like a dumbass who thought himself invincible. Eventually, I developed an intense pain in my sternum. Turns out it was pancreatitis. My pancreas was digesting itself. This was around the first week of Oct. I go to the hospital and am in the ICU for a week. I get out of the ICU and put in a regular room for a week to recover and learn how to inject insulin. While in the room, two noteworthy things happen: baby jessica falls in the well and the stock market crash of ‘87. I watched the news coverage of those events all week. Just like heaven was the song of the moment for me at the time. It takes me back to that strange week that marked the point where my life changed.
  10. Seeing The Record Company in deep ellum next thurs.
  11. My expectation is for you to pull one of these.
  12. Ride and Charlatans was a surprisingly good show. My expectations were tempered given their age. A couple noteworthy things about Ride. They didn’t play Twisterella. That sucked. They’re also really loud. I went to 35 shows last year only Ride and Ravonettes registered on my personal too loud scale. I had to back away from the stage to get to a comfortable listening distance. Charlatans had better stage charisma. Lead singer engaged with the audience a lot. They finished strong with The Only One I Know and Sproston Green.
  13. I saw that the Spits and your daughter’s band are coming to denton. Is this mini tour called the saliva tour?

    I learned everything I need to know about plagiarism from Cemetry Gates. If you must write prose and poems the words you use should be your own Don't plagiarise, don't take "on loan" 'Cause there's always someone, somewhere with a big nose, who knows And who trips you up and laughs when you fall Who'll trip you up and laugh when you fall You say: "'Ere long done do does did" Words which could only be your own And then produce the text from whence was ripped Some dizzy whore, 1804* * Source is genius.com
  16. Doing Ride and Charlatans in dallas at HOB tonight
  17. Rodgers on McAfee show today. Within Rodgers first few sentences he said “do your own research”. Complete conspiracy theorist qanon red flag alert. Changed channel immediately. Disclaimer - wife and I work from home and put the espn morning shows on in the common area for background noise. McAfee’s show just happened to be on when I walked into the room.
  18. The googles show that Angel is the owner of The Colony Cobbler unless I’m looking at the wrong place. Has it changed ownership? Is David still there?
  19. I got a pair of rujos for christmas. This my second pair of them. I get lots of compliments on my peanut colored pair so I got the same style in chestnut. They’re goat and come with a distressed finish.
  20. Fuck all those maga pieces of shit
  21. When I read it, I imagined the venn diagram.
  22. We got out of the hotel in the french quarter and on the road at 6 AM. Took 7 hours to make it back to Dallas. Glad we got up early. Sounds like a beating otherwise.
