Happy Boxing Day

I went into Wake Up Dead Man completely cold and I'm so glad I did. Loved it!!!

bang trim got postponed two weeks, which is fine because I think I make a fine highland cow

caught the very moment a terrestrial radio station switched to Xmas music, like some kind of holiday ORACLE

“Is Phantom of the Opera an elected position?” — @maxwolpertmusic.bsky.social

Had so much fun working on this track for Rhyolite with Natalie and co! "...We need something heavier and darker and wilder and weirder" - say no more! s/o always to @sprightlysound.bsky.social who does western prog rock violin like no one else

I don’t know why musicians get a pass for using AI images. “I don’t know how to do that!!!” okay so??? tough shit, find someone who does! Collaborate with other artists!!

I asked my wife to pitch a "Phantom of the Opera" threequel and she spat out "Daae Another Day" without blinking.

just found where they sell you

The guy who invented the saxophone could not be killed. I'm writing a piece where each movement musically depicts one of the phenomena that tried and failed to take him out - it's nine movements and I'm leaving out SEVERAL of his brushes with death.

Canvas just became one of the most powerful surveillance, IP theft, & data monetization tools in the world. OpenAI bought a user-base locked in to long-term contracts. But they can’t make us use their trashware. Boycott. Luddify. Open source. Don’t let them have your work or your students.

Really cool cover of Glass Cages from Rift!! Thanks so much for spending the time and love on a track that means so much to me @kerokero-sene.bsky.social cc @braceyourselfgames.com @sprightlysound.bsky.social :)

Take Me Out to the Ballgame would be a more compelling national anthem

Conclave (2024) is just Mean Girls if it were set in the Vatican

Hey just had an idea. Plague Doctor Mario

This is true historically of other jobs associated with Rugged Manliness. When you study worksongs from lumberjacks, whalemen, cowboys, etc., the songs about them being Tough & Masculine come later. The songs from the people actually doing those jobs are all "the Boss is ripping us off."

Now that I'm back from the US and not in fear about being detained at customs for my political beliefs, I helped create a charity album for Palestine! 'Composers for Palestine' is a collection of beautiful indie video game music. Enjoy, donate and share! RT's appreciated tinyurl.com/yeyw4yta

I made a session walkthrough of Glass Cages (feat. @sprightlysound.bsky.social) from Rift of the NecroDancer! (Out Feb 5!!) Hear my influences and see how it all came together to make a song players have called "amazing" and "unhinged". www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE01... cc @braceyourselfgames.com

we are in hell

I have a new musical project I’ve been pouring my everything into over the last few months. It’s called Espiaille, and if that sounds familiar, it’s because I launched a solo project under that name 2 years ago. Now we’re SO BACK as a duo & excited to release our single “Fact or Fiction” on Monday!

My band Mr Knobs just got nominated as Best of 303 for 2024 on Indie 102.3!!! Vote for Knobs for a Knobulous 2025

I am finally watching the holiday event movie musical everybody has been talking about-- Cats (2019, dir. Tom Hooper)

Always there to catch me when I fall. Happy birthday, Dad 💖

What is the hottest role Tom Hanks has played and why is it the train conductor from the Polar Express

400+ years after the "First Thanksgiving" most Americans have no idea that the Wampanoag people are still here. My tribe, the Aquinnah Wampanoag, is on Martha's Vineyard and we're still fighting for our land and rights. We’re also doing some cool stuff. 🧵👇 if you’d like to learn more & support us

Just saw one of those "Come and Take It" flags with what I thought was a picture of a telescope on it. But now I realize it's a cannon. The telescope would've been cooler 🔭

happy five years since I got my hair stuck in a stand mixer and lived to tell the tale 😵‍💫🫨

Max came back from Ziggi’s with coffee but no customary free chocolate-covered espresso bean. I asked, hey dude, where’s the bean. They said, “The barista was a cool scene girl. I would’ve felt silly asking for a bean.”

hi bluesky what are your favorite string quartets written this century?

the great thing about John Prine's catalog is that every song is so gorgeously crafted, I can't even be mad when my neighbor stumbles through Angel From Montgomery on a very out-of-tune guitar

did you guys know that taking time to cook and enjoy real vegetables & an actual source of protein will make you feel infinitely better than living off oatmeal & granola bars for two months

Kids, get in here and wish your uncle a happy birthday 🧥🐶🎂

I will never be able to adequately thank the inventor of the weighted blanket,,, Keith, suffice to say I am a BIG fan

ate my first pomegranate of the season & immediately got walloped with four consecutive days of snow this week between Idaho and Colorado

one thing I'm gonna do every time I hit the Skylark Lounge is take a selfie in the magenta stairwell. stoked to play a halloween show here on the 31st!!
