We've gotta get outta this place / if it's the *last thing we ever do.* I don't think they thought thru that lyric too much

Joel just sent us a pic of him and Eitzel on tour long ago. Reminded me of one of the times i saw AMC--started with a version of Firefly that was slower sadder than this one, made the whole room float. Then I see twas my pal Sam who put this thing on YouTube from London..well ok then life

not terribly used to winning i guess

Congrats from a spurs fan. It’ll feel great, not much longer

Requiescat Blood Ulmer, fantastically original guitarist who absorbed harmolodics completely and developed his own take on it over the course of about a million records. Go lean on Odyssey or Tales of Captain Black or Black Rock or Freelancin' and see how it feels

“Wemby has to do this and that” and “the problem with Wemby” discourse from people who didn’t see him play until middle of this year is hilarious. Dude is 22. Insanely high expectations of him, more than any other big *in the history of the NBA*. and there’s a good chance he will figure it all out

Full lineup announcement day. Putting on a fest I'd actually want to go to is always the general idea here and I think we succeeded on that front.

Incredible record Describing it is especially useless, so "check it out" if you like Who gives a shit about this part really but Bert and the rest of Pentangle laid a lot of track for musicians who are/were more interested in wandering than trying to adhere to some particular commercial path

Hit it!

Nice

If you're looking for some listening today, @timmidyett.bsky.social joins the @ghostcanyonfest.bsky.social podcast to talk about the past, present and future of Silkworm. Learned a couple things I didn't know before! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

Lightnin' Hopkins made a bunch of records that were bowdlerized by well-meaning folkies and record label dorks. This is not one of them--sounds great, guitar loud, singing and playing loose & killer. Glad i took a flier on it. Hardly anyone has it in stock so good luck if this is your kind of thing

And we are back with another episode of the Ghost Canyon podcast! In this week’s episode we talked to Tim Midyett from Silkworm about the winding trail of life that has brought the ‘Worm back into the world after their tragic initial breakup, along with a ton of other subjects.

I have been a spurs fan since Duncan got drafted. Pretty religious. I’ve watched wembanyama play a ton of his games in his short career so far. This might not be as good as it gets, which is insane

Woke up with "No Revolution" by Einheit in my head, so that's a pretty good start.

So great to hear Silkworm and Come fill the hall at Elsewhere in front of a full and enthusiastic crowd.

I never thought I’d see this band play these songs again. Silkworm in Philadelphia. They opened with Couldn’t You Wait and it was overwhelming. It’s like when Gandalf comes back in Lord of the Rings, to get incredibly nerdy.

Silkworm and Come @ Johnny Brenda’s

Saw Silkworm and Come at Johnny Brenda’s, ran into a lot of friends, as will happen at those kinds of shows.

Silkworm @ Fitzgerald’s 5.6.26

Requiescat HP LaserJet 1018, the most reliable piece of computer-oriented equipment I have ever owned. I think I bought it the year we moved to Chicago, which would make it 25yrs old at time of death. That's 25,000yrs old in human terms

Bukka White was mostly a solo artiste and plenty heavy on his own, but he was accompanied late in his career by a drummer named Joe Gray. Very insistent, machine-like but deep groove. Sounds like Roland in Big Black. Blues Masters Vol 4 is a good place to start...is where I first heard his ass

An old buddy hit me up the other day to ask if I had seen that Silkworm is coming to Denver. He didn't know that I'm an organizer for this fest but he *did* know that I'm a huge Silkworm dork. The Brand Is Strong.

Singles Going Steady isnt my favorite record of all time but it sounds like it has to be every time I listen to it

Ghost Canyon continuing its tradition of being the coolest thing in Denver

Grateful strap up and get to help make this a reality every year with some of the best people. Weekend passes for sale! Check the comments!

quite a lineup...Denver is a hub for various airlines in case you didn't know. see ya there

I heard from Duffy of Ladyhawk today and it reminded me it's been the better part of a year since I've listened to You Read My Mind ten times in a row

The Most Distant Object is playing with Silkworm at Fitzgerald's in Berwyn on Wed May 6th. If you live in Berwyn and say "I'm from Chicago" it's totally fine. That's how close it is. Here's the group's brand new LP--Tom and Franz from C-Clamp, Jason from Dianogah.

no one was killed and the city got a billion upfront, so I guess this is actually worse than the Chicago parking meter deal

I don’t know how to express this more clearly Every time you do a war I’m against it I’m against it in all forms I’m against from All sides I’m against the careless loss of life

I picked the wrong Monday to be off socials @rosyoverdrive.com wrote some nice words about Sixtieth Parallel “Thirty Years” and added us to their playlist: rosyoverdrive.com/2026/04/06/n... & new Silkworm live: skwm.bandcamp.com/track/dont-m... From a show I attended! @timmidyett.bsky.social

Don’t freak out if you hear emergency sirens in Chicago at 10 a.m. It’s the testing that happens on the first Tuesday of the month. 🚨
