I have a weird personal history with that Star Trek movie in particular, and thus find this news excellent.

One of those rare moments where the early 2000s post-punk revival felt brand new all over again. #BlocParty #LikeEatingGlass #PostPunkRevival #2000sRock

This whole record rules, but this song in particular feels like β€œchase this light” era Jimmy and I’m not one bit mad about it

You put RFTC on the bill, and I’m buying a plane ticket tomorrow.

Been living with perfect Cure songs the majority of my life,
and that whole time I’ve wrestled with that one, because it seems like it was beamed from another universe. Is it my favorite? No. But also, yeah, because it really is that pristine.
Robert blacked out on the one. Not a bum note there.

Thought experiment, is Xtian punk/hardcore the most Calvinist of all genres? (FIF excluded, natch)

You’re right. But I was stone cold sober, and in a good mood. They were 1st on a bill with the Dirty Three and Pavement in a sold out venue. The entire audience had a collective β€œwtf did we just experience” moment.
It was… alienating. To be generous.

True story - US Maple played what was, and remains, the worst opening band set I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

As an alum of the whole classical music school thing, I can assure you both that this is more or less correct. You’d look through the CD books in their car and see exclusively classical repertoire and, like, one Tool album.

My un-asked-for take on the NPs is that they mastered the opening track for an album. Just an unimpeachable run of side 1 track 1 tunes.

Got incredibly helpful (unsolicited) and solid directions from a crack head in NY recently who, when I said thanks, told me β€œyou’ve got your kid with you, man. I want you to have a good experience. I’m like the mayor, but better.”

Age verification? My first concert was Metallica and Guns and Roses in Dallas in the 8th grade. I watched a 300 pound man pummel about 20 dudes into dust in the pit. Faith no More opened and Mike Patton deep-throated the mic. GnR played an entire set!

Spent the better part of a decade trying to convince Congress that PEPFAR was a good investment. Warms my heart that AG is willing to show more spine than many of those Congress people who paid lip service in private but wouldn’t support publicly because it wasn’t politically advantageous.
