Yes - the T-40s are absolutely solid and heavy too.

I'm surprised he even knew there was an election yesterday, he usually acts like he hasn't seen any news in like 10 years..

Such projection. THEY are the ones who "hate America." They want us to be Nazi Germany.

I do appreciate Bandcamp, but I seem to find way too much cool music to even have time to listen to it all on my own without having to be alerted to what some other doofus believes might be "cool". Thanks, tho.

Dems can - and should - just get a judge to swear her in. Johnson doesn't have to do it.

They're just hoping for a ratings windfall. Kimmel ought to come back twice as offensive. ABC is still claiming they did the right thing by self-imposing state censorship. F that.

I think you're right. Peanut farming is far more worthwhile than hi-tech OBEY glasses, and much healthier.

Yes, why are we allowing an internationally recognized murderer and criminal into this country?? Felons of a feather, I suppose.

That's showbiz! We do not have a real functioning government anymore. We have a bad reality tv show. A really really bad one.

Having grown up as a post-punk bass player, I can fully endorse this technique.

Nebraska concerts canceled after Czech musician denied entry into U.S. Jaroslav Skuta, a clarinetist from the Czech Republic, was scheduled to play four concerts - Saturday in Wilber, Sunday in Omaha, Monday in Lincoln and Tuesday in Fremont, but he was detained at the a...

A good friend of mine sponsors this Czech clarinettist every year to travel to Ohio and perform. President Asshole and his goons decided he was no longer fit to be here for some asinine reason. All musicians should boycott this country now.

This is such utter fucking Russian style propaganda bullshit! I saw this late last night and have been furious ever since. Total waste, fraud AND abuse of my tax money! The bill will bankrupt the SSA, too! Nothing at all to celebrate. F this administration.
