In 2026 we're low balling everybody on Reverb

Sure, let's fix something else the day before the show

*Apocryphal Jimi Hendrix quote*

Gonna be a Wilshire show this Saturday

Going to finally make it down to San Diego this weekend

Do straightedge bands sing about not vaping now?

Simpsons "do it for her" meme but its a bunch of pictures of Bruce on the 80/81 River tour

These fucks won’t save us and we need to walk away from their entire party.

One of Don's sharper aphorisms

Greetings from Vancouver, flying home to LA tonight then we prep for our next show down San Diego way

Do HXC dudes still dress like this?

Close enough, welcome back 2003 invasion of Iraq

See you in two weeks San Diego

Today's listening, making the setlist for Mario's last show in 2 weeks

Starting off the year with a very Harry Dean Stanton in Christine look

The Major Awards manifesto

Some thrift finds

I actually have a copy of this that I found at a thrift store about 10 years ago but so much fun gear to make very cheesy 80s worship music

I think I'm going to buy a set of free weights and blast Death Metal records in my driveway while I work out next year to get back at my annoying neighbors

I think I'm gonna try out having a goatee next year

My wife said I looked like "is it Elvis Costello? Like a guy who wears a fedora and rides a skateboard"

I have a mashup of a Tom Petty song and a Dag Nasty song stuck in my head

My best bit this year was definitely Big Beat Dylan

Merry Christmas (again, this time more Telly Savalas and presents)

Merry Christmas

Baby Jesus, born to rock

I'm going to start doing yoga and lifting weights, get a Kramer bass, start a band that sounds like Deadguy and super kick every poor sap who jumps on stage

The group chat is mostly just sending each other Facebook marketplace links for keyboards and drum machines now

Close enough, welcome back Fugazi thebandreds.bandcamp.com/album/the-tr...

I've barely scratched the surface of Joe Ely's music but I adore his first two record RIP

I wish I was Joe Pesci

Things are coming up milhouse

Today's listening: George Harrison - All Things Must Pass ToyGuitar - In This Mess

Major Guidelines: 50s jazz, chooglin, lush arrangements, play to limitations, commit to ideas, don't bore us get to the chorus, drum machines are cool, discrete instruments, ugly/pretty, bouncy clean rhythm, more horns, don't bury the lede, bring it all under one roof, we don't always need a guitar

I said "keep them guessing, Husker Du one night, Bossa Nova chamber pop the next" the other day in the group chat

West Coast friends! The Perennial Sound returns in exactly one month, including dates with @mikehuguenor.bsky.social & @majorawardsband.bsky.social !

Wine me, dine me, Starflyer 59 me

Logging back in to say, I'm tinkering with some real old songs and every time I go back I'm gassed, what kind of lung capacity did I think I had?

I'm gonna log out of the internet and spend the next month demoing every song I have written and try to squeeze keeper tracks in between jackhammer sessions and beat my head against the Craigslist wall until I shake out a new lineup

Two houses on my block have been gutted and are being remodeled but they are doing it with 2 man crews so its dragging the fuck out, I'm losing my mind, its saws and jackhammers all day

The cure for the common band

I am either more tired or Craigslist has gotten a lot worse every year
