My first time in Alabama! π€© Such a fun trip to Muscle Shoals to play a songwritersβ showcase at WC Handy Fest alongside these legends Sinead Burgess, Blake OβConnor, Melanie Dyer and @jeremydylan.bsky.social. Got to town early to see the phenomenal FAME Studios β so much history in those walls. β¨

Seeing this argument a lot less but I like the topic, so I'll mosey on in...
"Superhero movies are today's westerns."
No.
1. Westerns were never tied to a small handful of copyrighted and trademarked properties
2. Westerns are wildly versatile and can be made for a fortune or a shoestring

Loved Gunnβs approach to the Clark/Superman character. Dialing up the personality instead of equating goodness with blandness was the key.
My only quibble - Clark Kent is absolutely a country music fan not a pop punk dude. His bedroom shouldβve been Brooks & Dunn and Chris Stapleton posters.

I woke up today to the news that we have debuted in the Top 20 of the Australian ARIA Country Chart! To be honest, as an independent artist, I didnβt even bother checking the chart until somebody sent it to me. :β) Iβm so incredibly proud and grateful for how this record has been embraced. ππ©΅π¦πΊ

Last time they had to recast Bond there were so many great candidates that I wouldβve been happy with at least five of them (Craig, Owen, Isaacs, Jackman, Elba and Iβm probably forgetting people).
This time itβs a struggle to think of people who really fit. Suave is generally in short supply.

I had the increasingly rare pleasure of seeing Buddy Miller play and sing some songs last night and it really brought home what makes him such a genius - impeccable taste. It's not what he can play or how he can sing, it's just unerring perfect choices about what to play when and when not to play.

I find it hilarious that anybody in 2025 is surprised that the very famous rock star who campaigned very publicly for John Kerry, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris is not a Republican. This goes beyond 'didn't listen to the verse lyrics in Born in the USA'.

Eleven thoughts on a really shitty House budget
War on the poor, a death-knell for American nuclear, over $6 trillion in extra debt, and more!
This bill is trash.
Jared Golden and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and Henry Cuellar and Vincente Gonzalez are all against it, if you had a half-dozen more Blue Dogs it would be dead and that would be a progressive win.
