Excited to announce that August is 90s Neil Month at Evil Speakers! Every Monday I’ll be talking about a 90s Neil Young album, starting with 1990’s RAGGED GLORY, one of my all time faves. Simply no other music I’d rather hear in the dog days of summer. tinyurl.com/nhe67584

Continuing (and hopefully concluding) our efforts to put Hanukkah tickets into the hands of fans, the many many tickets flagged as purchased by scalpers and bots have been cancelled, and will be re-sold in a lottery through Ticketmaster Request… (cont’d ->)

The new "AI slop" button is really helping me deal with my self-loathing about having to use LinkedIn so much. Four stars.

OK, I'll say it: I love REALITY AWAITS! It's a v. enjoyable Strokes album! I wrote about why I feel that way, the early reactions to the record, the cyclical nature of Strokes backlashes, their current tour, and why young fans get them more than old fans. tinyurl.com/5eb2auna

Patrick's coverage was so excellent, and even though I didn't have much time to follow this year's Tour, it was a pleasure to have him as a daily guide.

patrick@redford.bsky.social · last wk.

It was an honor and a privilege to cover the Tour de France from Barcelona to Paris. The final story is about how Tadej Pogacar got over his ennui and got his joy back:

I think it's nice that all these Odyssey scholars finally saw their first movie.

Finally, podcasts about the Grateful Dead.

Phish last night:

What does a sleeper show look like on a tour where every night has a 30-minute jam, unexpected type II, and weird bustouts? My money's on "Oops! All Ballads!"
