If Music Could Talk

There's a new interview with Don on the Hustle Podacst - https://thehustle.podbean.com/e/episode-419-don-letts/ I think this was recorded in March or April of this year. It's more of a career spanning talk with emphasis on the upcoming solo album. He talks a little bit of his time in B.A.D. (writin...

So apparently Pat Smear is straight? I always assumed he was gay even back to his Nirvana days. He says he's straight. My theory is that he was gay, but that being in the most bland heteronormative rock band for 25 years straightened him out. It was certainly taking your life into your own hands to...

I like it for the entertainment value of it, but I would never center my life around it or drop it into conversations in a serious way the way some do with that whole Mars in retrograde shit. :rolleyes: I play around with tarot cards for the same reason. It can be fun as long as you see it for what...

This poll had captured the general accuracy of zodiac signs. Great stuff. In my punk class this past winter, I had a student—one of my favourites, I should add—who was seriously into astrology and often dropped it into discussions (apparently my borderline Taurus/Gemini status is quite clear) and i...

It's hard not to see Hawley's yammering about masculinity as compensation. His willowy body hardly evokes the kind of masculinity of the neanderthal base. His body type and demeanour is strikingly similar to an academic here we know who is called Prancer behind his back, partly due to physicality b...

Hell yeah (I actually hated that album)

That band was at the top of my "most hated" list for all of jr/high school. Now they're back and they can reassume the crown.

Probably not that surprising given that it was Marr who jumped ship, not Morrissey, and the latter was, perhaps, uncertain about how viable a career without Marr would be, so early on he kept close those he knew. Working with Vini Reilly, tho, is still the strangest, boldest partnership he's pursue...

great profile on Our Man Dave: https://www.gq.com/story/dave-matthews- ... ket-newtab

Funny, I have this open in another tab already for me to read when work gets slow. I hope he has some good advice for me.

Image is moving their distribution from Diamond to Lunar, the company that has been handling DC since they also moved off Diamond. On one hand, this could be good news in that it releases the Diamond stranglehold on the direct market, on the other hand, I hope smaller publishers can quickly pivot to...

One of my very tentative predictions of the pandemic's long-term effects is the introduction of a universal basic income. Similar to how the welfare state was unimaginable and, believed, unworkable before the Depression, afterwards it was just common sense and seen as a means of solving capitalism'...

You get a personal reply because of your lateness. There's a moral in there, I guess. Something about betting on hares and foxes who eat grapes and scorpions wanting to cross rivers. Anyway. :cool: I always liked that grape one. I had a whole box of illustrated Aesop books that my grandma got me wh...

But think of all the free time those workers have now! Not a single government on this planet is prepared for the obvious conclusion that work is about to end as we know it and a big chunk of humanity is not going to be able to sell their labour any more. A utopia of sorts is, at last, just within ...
