I'm watching the Cure at Isle of Wight festival on Sky. Because Robert Smith is one of the finest counter-melodians in popular music history. Got to love the way that @reevesgabrels.bsky.social always looks like he's massively enjoying himself

#MusicHistory On this day 1989, Tin Machine released their self-titled debut album. David Bowie didn’t want another polished solo record. He wanted noise & a reset. With Reeves Gabrels, Tony Sales & Hunt Sales, Bowie's group was raw, loud, abrasive, and completely uninterested in playing it safe.

Tin Machine released their debut album on this day in 1989. The album was produced by Tin Machine & Tim Palmer. Photography by Masayoshi Sukita. David Bowie, lead vocals, saxophone and guitar; Reeves Gabrels, guitar and vocals; Tony Fox Sales, bass and vocals; and Hunt Sales on drums and vocals.

#OnThisDay in 1989, the album Tin Machine by Reeves Gabrels, David Bowie, and Hunt and Tony Sales, was released. Tin Machine would release another studio album and a live album. #OTD #TinMachine #ReevesGabrels #DavidBowie #HuntSales #TonySales

In The Rock 5/22/1989: ‘Tin Machine’ hits record stores; the self-titled debut from Bowie’s under appreciated project with Reeves Gabrels and Sales brothers Hunt and Tony. It was harder, and more chaotic than Bowie’s 80s vibe, a lot of people didn’t get it. #TinMachine #Bowie #RockHonorRoll

In The Rock 5/22/1989: ‘Tin Machine’ hits racks in record stores; it’s the self-titled debut LP from Bowie’s under appreciated project with Reeves Gabrels and Sales brothers Hunt and Tony. The band explored a harder, more chaotic sound than Bowie had in the 80s, but a lot of people didn’t get it.

On this day, 37 years ago, Tin Machine (David Bowie / Reeves Gabrels / Tony Sales / Hunt Sales) released their self-titled debut album in 1989. It peaked at number 3 in the U.K. Album Chart and reached Gold certification in the U.K., Canada and Italy

El guitarrista *Reeves Gabrels* mayormente conocido por su trabajo con David Bowie en los '90 y como guitarrista de *CURE* desde 2012 se une a la Boston Ballet Orchestra para una actuación única.

Tocará en directo el estreno mundial del coreógrafo My'Kal Stromile, "The Leisurely Installation of a New Window", que se presentará junto a "The Dream" de Frederick Ashton, desde hoy hasta el 29 de marzo en el Citizens Opera House.

*Gabrels* describe su participación como algo completamente fuera del mapa: improvisará tejiendo su guitarra entre cellos, trombones y violines dentro de una partitura cuidadosamente compuesta. 🎟️ Entradas en bostonballet.org

"Never Enough" is a banger, as the kids say. 2018 live version with Reeves Gabrels on guitar. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh6o...

Ballet turn for guitar star: @reevesgabrels.bsky.social joins Boston Ballet Orchestra for world premiere performance www.bostonherald.com/2026/03/19/b...

I talked to @reevesgabrels.bsky.social about Bowie and ballet (two of my favorite things!) ahead of his performances with Boston Ballet. www.bostonherald.com/2026/03/19/b...

Went to go see @reevesgabrels.bsky.social and Jonathan Kane perform in the orchestra pit of the @BostonBallet yesterday and it was really wonderful!! (No cameras allowed though 😢). There’s still some time left to see it as it goes on until March 29th! #bostonballet #reevesgabrels #jonathankane

It was a really great production and it was super cool to see how the electric guitar is utilized in ballet to convey story and emotion! Highly recommended!!

Nobody goes to the ballet anymore… #bostonballet

“You may not expect to hear an electric guitar when you go to the ballet, but legendary rock guitarist Reeves Gabrels will be sitting in with the orchestra during an upcoming world premiere at Boston Ballet.” 🩰 @reevesgabrels.bsky.social #ReevesGabrels #TheCure #MusicSky 🎶 youtu.be/Kd4s6vmuhO8?...

In honor of the Super Bowl, here’s a 2,000-year-old Roman glass bowl recently discovered in the Netherlands. You can’t see it as well in the image below as in other photos, but, in the right light, this super bowl glows with a stunning cobalt blue radiance.

Looking forward to giving my fourth invited talk at the University of Missouri tomorrow.

I decided to publish a chapbook about seeing a week of shows on Patti Smith's Horses 50th anniversary tour bc I've been seeing her live for so long & think the small details of what exactly makes her such a compelling performer get elided. jukeboxgraduate.bigcartel.com/product/thre...

Congratulations to Robert Smith and The Cure on the Grammy wins! We're grateful for your leadership in working for a healthier and more sustainable music business for fans and artists alike!
