If yr local Neil cover band isn’t opening with a 30 minute Ramada Inn I don’t want it
So we’re getting the prog set as a nod to Rush. Not complaining.

Ticket for Phish acquired. Now all that I ask is that they please don’t play Life on Mars tomorrow night but I’m afraid it’s all but guaranteed. Give me: Camel Walk Brother Peaches Destiny Alumni Blues Pic of the tapes of my first show.
Obsessing over a new album that sounds like Vashti Bunyan fronting the more pastoral side of Talking Heads.
Looking for a miracle for MSG for the 27th or 29th. Just had to drop a lot of money on my car and just can’t swing it otherwise.
The lameness of the Play Dead drops are comical at this point.
Gonna be taking a break from radio for a while. More thoughts to come but here’s some: www.instagram.com/p/DasXjL_OBD...

They sound great. Makes this dog shit of a tour even more frustrating.
My favorite thing about Goose is those fellas are huge moe.rons. Wish I was at SPAC but camping in VT with my family was obviously infinitely better.
This father in the waiting room frying his two-year-old’s brain with cocomelon is filling me with rage and sadness
If we lived in a proper country I would’ve heard this on the college radio station every 2-3 days when it came out half a decade ago. youtu.be/agNRqAbTxtg?...

Good Ol’ Davey really taking the easy way with all these DSBD GD drops. Let’s get some 7” reels baked and spinning out some 60s and 70s shows.
It's time you cut the bullshit and listen to Widespread Panic—the long-running rural psych rock band out of Georgia. I'm here to help you do it, also wrote up two great new country rock records. ambientaudiophile.substack.com/p/83-dont-be...

Bought two Goose Central Park tickets to try and flip for some profit and ended up losing 10 bucks on the deal so that's some nice karma for me.
Awesome nobody on this dead ass platform gives a shit.
