Met the legendary Willie Nelson tonight at Farm Aid. For 40 years, he has championed family farmers and tirelessly advocated for our rural communities. And he’s still going strong at 92!

@farmaid.org www.yahoo.com/news/article...

“Farmers are a unique breed, and very, very private people. We love to help our neighbors, but we don’t like talking about our own issues, especially health issues.” — Bob Worth, MN farmer He wants to remind farmers that help is a phone call away.

All of us at Farm Aid are thrilled that artist Shepard Fairey is bringing his distinctive artistic vision to the occasion of marking Farm Aid's 40th anniversary!

Love this shout-out that @missmargoprice gives to getting seeds at Farm Aid. We're planning to have another seed swap at #FarmAid40, so you can grow veggies next spring and think of the good times in Minneapolis.

In this episode of Against the Grain's new series on artists and activism, we zero in on a subject that has come up in all of the previous episodes – artists catching flak for taking a public stand on an issue.

One of my kids just brought up the topic of country artists with songs touching on the theme of reincarnation — he mentioned Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Tyler Childers, Roger Miller, and the Highwaymen, and I pointed out Iris Dement and this entire LP (much loved by me) by Willie Nelson. But who else?

Thank you Billboard for diving into how a remark from Bob Dylan at Live Aid led to Farm Aid's creation and how we're still here working for farmers 40 year later. www.billboard.com/mu...

It does! That’s a lovely way of putting it PS in case you’re interested the deep dive on Stardust / Willie Nelson & the Billie Holiday connection is on this podcast/ transcript below 🌟 www.texasmonthly.com/podcast/alli...

Hello Austin! I’m helping spread the word about this event/fundraiser (for the Fromholz documentary under production). Message me if you’d like more information.

I have no idea how @onebywillie.bsky.social and @soundopinions.bsky.social hooked up, but seeing them cross in my podcast feed is like finding out my college and high school best friends have started hanging out together.

@mauimom.bsky.social this was fun to see of your man and Trigger without signatures @willienelsonmusic.bsky.social

Radiohead - Kid A I remember this coming out in my late teens. It blew me away. I think I listened to the CD nonstop for weeks. For some time, Kid A was only available as a 10-inch (like this one). It has since come out as a standard 12-inch. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning #Radiohead #MusicSky

I'm listening to One by Willie | John Mellencamp on "Funny How Time Slips Away" #WillieNelson 🤠🤺 #JohnMellencamp

Today is the 30th anniversary of the first major protest against factory farms in Lincoln Township, MO. Organized by the Missouri Rural Crisis Center, the rally brought @willienelsonmusic.bsky.social to town, the national media followed, and a movement for family farms and the environment was born.

If you’re looking to love some of the best people in America and get some hope, you could do worse than listening to One by Willie (John Mellencamp on "Funny How Time Slips Away") @onebywillie.bsky.social is outstanding.

New OBW: indie rock-pop-and-folk icon @conoroberstreal.bsky.social on Willie Nelson's 1961 demo of "Undo the RIght," the counterintuitive wisdom in his lyrics, and a look at a songbook of original compositions Willie made when he was only 11. Hear here: bit.ly/3DTJ3Eo

Today, U.S. Senator @corybooker.com introduced the Honor Farmer Contracts Act. This legislation aims to release illegally frozen U.S. Department of Agriculture funding to farmers.

Absolutely this. That and the being paid in matchsticks.

On Sunday, an energetic crowd of 300 farmers and farm supporters gathered in Hadley, MA. Their mission: to call attention to the impacts of decisions made by the Trump Administration since January that are harming small and medium-sized farms.

New OBW: music critic Amanda Petrusich reframes Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard's Pancho & Lefty LP as a concept album on The Outlaw's Conundrum: What's an old rebel to do when time comes to settle down? Plus a beautiful explanation of how sad songs help us through grief. Hear here: apple.co/4khQndl

New OBW: Can't figure out what's cooler, Mark Seliger describing a lonely roadtrip w/nada but a Stardust cassette, how that expc informs his Willie Nelson portraits, or finding the song he & Willie cut w/Mark's band, Rusty Truck. It's called "1000 Kisses" & it's en fuego. Hear here: apple.co/3XXa7JK

this week in biscuits

I'm a fan of Amanda Petrusich's writing, been so for a long time. I wish she would finally make the jump over here to Bsky.
