You’re offered so much, but you’re frightened to take it. Music (punk, garage, new wave, jazz, indie, post-punk, glam, classical, whatever), Mets/Jets/Rangers, cats, beer, higher ed, travel, art, etc. Pro democracy, pro justice. Jersey since birth.

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH:

djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey."

Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it."

djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret."

And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children.

Pink Floyd at their absolute best. Never the same band without Syd.

Dems can just clip the "we took the freedom of speech away" and make an ad

Bassoonist here, nice job. For my senior recital as a composition major in college (100 years ago) I did an electric bassoon quintet, using a Barcus Berry pickup, recorded a 4-track tape and played along with it live.

There should be a bassoon emoji!

Rep-elect Grijalva won her election TWO weeks ago, yet Mike Johnson refuses to swear her in.

Why? Because she would be the last signature needed on the Epstein vote.

As a person who twice barely avoided getting kidnapped and sent to conversion therapy by my own family members it is very disheartening to hear that conversion therapy is still being discussed. Last i checked the only thing it converts is living kids to dead ones.

I say never ever listen to a word he says. MLB will see to it that Skenes is traded to the Dodgers or Yankees.

The future of our state is at stake. NJ needs a governor who'll prioritize our safety, our economy, and our health.
Mikie Sherrill has the plan and the courage to get it done. She'll invest in our public schools, our mass transit system, & all of our communities!

Yeah, I may be old, but I saw rock and roll at its absolute peak. And a few years later, Marc was the link between this era and punk.

A screenshot of a post from X (formerly Twitter). The top tweet is from user @covie_93 with the caption: “This tweet aged like Stephen Miller…..”. Below it is a tweet from Kristi Noem (@KristiNoem) that reads:
“If Joe Biden federalizes the National Guard, that would be a direct attack on states' rights.
Over the last several years, we've seen Democrats try to take away our Freedoms of religion, assembly, and speech. We can't let them take away our right to defend ourselves, too.
South Dakota defends the Constitution.”

Day 8. Have always loved this song, Roddy Frame was a prodigious young songwriter and guitarist, perhaps peaked early. The 80’s were a good decade for Glaswegian bands.

I admire your Dad for exposing you to it. We went to a rather avant garde performance over the weekend, a piece for 50 microtuned pianos and a chamber orchestra, and I loved that some people brought their kids.

Amazing. I wish kids and younger people were more exposed to classical music nowadays. When my wife and I go to concerts or the opera, aside from some Juilliard students, I still think we bring the average age down…and we’re in our mid-60’s.

Oh no, 60-day IL. Heal up fast and take care of yourself.

Wow, that must’ve been something to hear. Do you remember what pieces he conducted?

Maybe after the concert he went to the Dom on St Marks Place to see The Velvets 😉

Yes, he came from the modern classical music world with a fellowship at the Tanglewood Festival.

If you like rock musician memoirs, I highly recommend Rebel Girl by Kathleen Hanna. Smart, passionate and brutally honest, just as her music has always been.

Well I’m a Jets fan, and whatever it is they’re doing on the field probably isn’t a sport.

A masterpiece. TH and Eno were as good a band/producer pairing as there ever was (along with Joy Division and Martin Hannett).

Well that’s interesting. Wish I had. The Rite of Spring was 1913 punk rock.

500 hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics are at risk of closing because of the Trump-Republican big, ugly bill. Many are in rural areas.

Meanwhile, Republican-held US House districts and states Trump won in 2024 rely more on ACA coverage.

They're selling out their own voters.

Igor Stravinsky could have heard The Velvet Underground.
