Well, it's official, I'll be at Big Ears this year. Anyone good playing?

RIP Bud Cort. How else would you even pay tribute to him.

No-Nukes, No-Lesh! It's the a Phil-free Dead show, unplugged at the Warfield in 1981. doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8082679...

It's crazy, I'm starting to feel like this guy shouldn't be president! 🤔

Generally skeptical of de-80s-izing already classic 80s records … but this @robynhitchcock.bsky.social remix/remaster of Globe of Frogs sounds glorious. www.tinyghostrecords.shop/products/rob...

Clear it away! A sweet FM broadcast of Tom Verlaine live in Paris 1982 (w/ the late/great bassist Fred Smith). doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8081769...

I'm listening to this now it's a revelation. It sounds like Lou continuing the Velvets with a new band.

Saturday hike

A farewell to the unsung sideman.

Finding everyone on the internet to be incredibly annoying (not you, though, I love you)

Happy to celebrate the launch of a new Boulder County arts publication tonight — the Caribou Current. Check out cover star @mjsage.bsky.social … www.cariboucurrent.com

RIP Fred Smith of Television — one of the coolest bassists of all time.

Another previously uncirculated gem ... the Original Modern Lovers, ringing in 1973 at the infamous Mercer Arts Center in NYC. You gotta hear this one.

A Prof. Stoned remix/master of Dylan's legendary 1965 Hollywood Bowl show?! Hell yes. doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8077346...

Psyched to dig into this. @andybeta.bsky.social

You definitely want to "tuna" in to the Wet Tuna listening party kicking off in about a half-hour. New album is radical. wettuna.bandcamp.com/live/wet-tun...

With another Bandcamp Friday looming, here's the latest Bandcamping column — fresh & far out sounds! aquariumdrunkard.com/2026/02/04/b...

Sweet Winged Wheel jams from last month in Paris.

Lou-natics unite! Here's a previously uncirculated gem from the fall of 1972 — Lou Reed + the Tots in London. Probably the best quality recording I've heard from this era ...

Live music options in NYC, February 1976

The Clean :: Mister Pop aquariumdrunkard.com/2026/02/02/t... ...on the eve of a recently announced definitive book on the band and following the tragic passing of the late Hamish Kilgour, the now seventeen-year old record provides a deeply fascinating revisit.

How can anyone resist a harp/theremin cover of Harold Budd’s “The Pavilion of Dreams”?! I know I can’t.

Have I mentioned that the next season of ALL ONE SONG is coming together verrrrry nicely?

Would like to know what Charles Mingus thought of Talking Heads.

Didn’t take any pics but rest assured, @robynhitchcock.bsky.social was magnificent in Fort Collins last night. As always!

Sending this one out to the people of Minnesota — the Replacements opening for R.E.M. back in the summer of '83. doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8071796...

Free Don Lemon. Free Georgia Fort. Free Trahern Jeen Crews. Free Jamael Lydell Lundy. Fuck Pam Bondi.

Hooky Wooky in 1996! Check out Lou Reed (AKA the Rock 'n' Roll Rambo) at the Wiltern in LA. doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8070908...

I CANNOT believe this is happening, overwhelmed with feelings.

Well, this rules.

Tom Verlaine — three years gone! Please join me in listening to this killer SBD of the man in 1981, which was shared with D&G by an anonymous hero.

It's my older brother Nathan's 50th birthday today! Unbelievable. He is social media-averse for the most part, but you could go check out his occasionally unhinged music blog: dollarbin.tumblr.com

With Robyn Hitchcock returning to Colorado this week, some music/memories of 30 years ago in Santa Monica, CA. Lou Reed guest appearance. doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8069990...

A friend of the fam Richard Frey died yesterday. He was a member of SNCC and witness to the NYC downtown/punk scene of the 1970s before returning to Philly. Perhaps known to many for his short lived 'zine Tuesday Night. A legend and a really nice guy. RIP: tuesdaynight1977.wordpress.com

A very reluctant farewell to The Best Podcast! After 50 episodes, hosts Dante Carfagna and Jonathan Kirby are bringing Dogpatch to a close. Seriously, if you haven't checked it out, you gotta.

New SETTING album is sounding magnificent.

Winged Wheel :: Desert So Green aquariumdrunkard.com/2026/01/26/w... Winged Wheel’s third LP shows off this imaginative and evolving approach with terrific results. Though certain elements remain in place, the dream team sextet seem intent on not making the same record twice.

RIP Billy Bass…

A sweet-and-subtle slice of deep listening from Chicago’s Zander Raymond. doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/8068173...

RIP Sly Dunbar (1952-2026)

Marty Supreme kind of made me wish a Safdie had made No Direction Home

one of the gofundme campaigns sent to me today is only trying to raise $1,600 and has a horrific story of an experience of a Hmong elder. they've only raised $10.

Trying to figure out ways to not be useless — just set up a monthly donation to the Nat'l Immigration Law Center www.nilc.org

This is fun: I get to pontificate about Dylan, always a great way to relax and pass the time. Ruminate, cogitate, whatever we ate - with the great @raypadgett.bsky.social in person:

BREAKING: Federal agents just shot and killed a man in Minneapolis after brutally beating him in front of witnesses. We condemn this killing and demand ICE and CBP agents withdraw from Minneapolis immediately.

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today
