This is not a Vans shoe collab

Perennial is the middle point between James Brown and Gang of Four in this regard

Nevermind, not going to Cleveland anymore, direct to LAX

In honor of my layover in Cleveland, here's my 4 favorite Clevo records Pere Ubu - The Modern Dance James Gang - Thirds Dead Boys - Young, Loud and Snotty(I know, they made it in NY but they didn't form there) Integrity - Those Who Fear Tomorrow

Woke up from a dream where I was explaining in great detail to my bandmates how Carowinds used to have a thorough recreation of Aurora from the Wayne's World movies

A winning combination

Flight listens

I've never been so close to dropping 2.5k on a guitar without thinking good god yall

Its my birthday, my wife got me this cool hat, everything dies baby that's a fact, maybe everything that dies, someday comes back

Are you tired of going in circles? Y / N ?

Someday I'll live in a house with a drum kit and I can teach myself how to play all those Levon Helm grooves I want to rip off

I need to get a mouth guard for when I'm recording

Hxc Discourse? The sXe band from SC? They broke up a long time ago

I just got 2 cowboy hats this weekend, I don't need to weigh in on hxc discourse right now

Well they tore down the Wienerschnitzel in Highland Park, they tore down his house too

An extremely "hell yeah" record

Cabasa doubled on a rim shot to kind of placehold brushed snare, threw on some falsetto high harmonies doubled with some mellotron voice, a little piano, some celeste

Pulled out something I abandoned a long time ago to try a little Micky and Davy style Sunshine Pop ditty

This demo is calling for castanets

Played a great show last night, didn't do much today but went for a walk and laid on the floor and listened to Kris Kristofferson's perfect debut

Live from Oblivion, our first show with Dan

Secured the egg

Restaurantbacker

I have had such a blessed release day not looking at stats

DIY is whenever you are having fun

Thrift store by me is wild but $4500 is high

I'm tired of these Baby Steps

I've listened to some 80s/90s records from Sonny this week and its astounding how he really never stopped having something new to say on the sax - entering the home stretch now on his discography

Entering my smooth jazz listening, Kangol hat wearing, pony tail and earing, Parker Fly playing era

Springsteen meets Ride? Tom Petty meets Superchunk? Bob Seger meets Sugar? John Cougar Mellencamp meets REM? is this thing on?

Blowing the keys off for God now RIP

We have a song coming out this Friday and we are playing this show on the 31st, we might try out another drummer next week, just got the flier for a cool show in July as well, I need to finish another single and start the demo cycle again

The upshot of everything else in my life devolving into chaos is that I don't have time to be stressed about this band

I take an almost exclusively value based approach to record shopping nowadays

New music from Major Awards is closer than you think

Well

Episode 379: Miami by The Gun Club (1982) available now! This week Dylan was assigned the year 1982, and went with the sophomore album by punk blues innovators The Gun Club. Check out the episode at linktr.ee/punklottopod

I'm listening to Joe Ely and wondering if I can find an accordion player

People should talk about The Church the way they talk about The Smiths

Apropos of rewatching Deliver Me From Nowhere on this flight here is my Bruce album tier

I still love the Ramones man, no bad records

RIP

May do a little late career Otis inspired Soul Punk rave-up with a tango beat

Do I wall of sound Wah Wah George Harrison this song? Or grimey clav driven funk rock it like The Band? What sits best next to sophisti-pop adult contempo songs about being a wife guy?

Studying those Stan Lynch drum patterns, what a genius of simple variations

*Danzig voice* “Mothers”

Sitting down with the sacred texts
