Bringing TurtlerBase to Bluesky is still on my list, but it’s a long list and there’s a lot on it I may not ever get to, so I’ll gradually add to a thread of old setlists for the heads who may be interested.

Someone tell Hillary that this is her husband’s legacy too

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

I still think about Gene Shalit’s praise for Roberts De Niro and Duvall in TRUE CONFESSIONS.

Duvall with cue cards on his chest while James Caan and Brando rehearse

& always a team player, as seen in this Godfather outtake shot, where he's the cue card man for Marlon Brando

Kilgore (Robert Duvall) speaking on the beach as bombs are falling in APOCALYPSE NOW

Duvall was behind so many iconic moments in cinema, but the one that I thought about first upon hearing the news of his passing is when Kilgore wistfully goes, “Someday this war’s gonna end,” and you think for a second he’s going to say more, but he doesn’t. RIP.

Originally recorded by Bob Dylan + band on Valentine's Day in 1966 at CBS Nashville, here's a live version of "Visions of Johanna" recorded by me + my band in Nashville some 60 years later.

Happy Valentine's Day ❤️

There truly may be no form of reading material I enjoy more than the setlist from any jamband, particularly one I’ve never heard. May have to bring TurtlerBase to Bluesky, but here’s an oldie from Twitter.

Hahaha - funnily enough, I was looking at this setlist this morning and thinking it reminded me of Turtler, but there were no cops, so you’ve got me beat: bsky.app/profile/neig...

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

What if they do “Samba in the Rain”?!

At least they seem to know how to pronounce her last name

Donald Trump has turned America into a violent fascist kleptocracy. But the NFL just forced some culturally unfamiliar music upon me. I have never felt more politically homeless.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

I guess he wasn’t watching Kid Rock

Bad Bunny wearing an OCASIO 64 jersey

Ocasio gang rise up 🙌🏽🇵🇷

Bad Bunny’s halftime show provided a desperately needed antidote to the dystopian vibes of the commercial breaks

No Kings includes Draft Kings

wealthy influencers who promote sports betting to their young fans will not see the gates of heaven

Not sure I’ll enjoy any of today’s commercials more than that beer ad where Christopher Walken taunts a stranger at a bar into hitting on a woman

Councilmember Nithya Raman to run for L.A. mayor, challenging onetime ally Karen Bass Raman would immediately pose a formidable challenge to Bass. She was the first council member to be elected with support from the Democratic Socialists of America.

OMG!!!

Nithya is who we want to be mayor of Los Angeles. I've worked with her personally through @hofoco.org. She's a progressive who actually gives a shit about helping people, not enriching herself. THE DREAM CANDIDATE:

Nithya is a friend, but even if I didn’t know her I’d be thrilled about this news; I look forward to doing everything possible to help her become mayor.

Wild how George Soros flew all those people to the Olympics to boo J.D. Vance.

CBS censored Billie Eilish saying “Fuck ICE” at the Grammys. Here’s the uncensored version:

Respect to Billie Eilish and Bad Bunny for speaking out against ICE at the Grammys, and not just because it definitely pissed off Bill Maher

Regardless of their level of involvement, one thing that’s clear is there’s not one person named in the Epstein files who believed those girls were people.
