  1. listening to nation of language a lot recently - new, 80s/90s retro band, beautiful melodies and vox. and a lot of random classic, dance and new alt stuff while BBQing, like kylie, cher, greta van fleet, death cab, boygenius, trooper, kiss, moody blues
  2. wore out his first solo album. such sad news. an important canadian artist 😢 RIP Robbie Robertson
  3. is it me or did some ticket prices actually increase on the fly this morning?
  4. The Leafs will win the cup this year. Mark my words
  5. Looking forward to this. I prefer seats to sand. Im old now.
  6. I like to visit New Orleans on my Oculus Quest II and listen to Queen Ida and her Zydeco Band on Spotify thru Alexa while sipping Cafe du Monde delivered same-day by Amazon. It's real, man, just as real as when I taped pennies to my stylus forty-five years ago to stop it from skipping. Life is groovy.
  7. new War on Drugs album, while installing a new toilet. 😀 https://www.thewarondrugs.net/music/i-dont-live-here-anymore
  8. Ive done dicks before and I quite like dicks.
  9. Great show! ... PS, Im getting too old for this shit.
  10. yeah, they played like a hurricane at massey hall. was a fun encore. this band is infectious. cool that y'all like them too. re: barr bros ... a definite hillside 17 highlight. that would be a fun double bill.
  11. ... went to see War on Drugs couple weeks ago at Massey Hall. really liked them. they sound like modern dylan.
  12. This is a huge blow to our community. So very sad. My thoughts and warm vibes go out out to his friends and family. What a wonderful note from his brother, it must have been terribly difficult to write. No doubt, the passion and hard work Brad put into his taping will live on. Tapes brought many of us together here and Brad was a kind and generous leader, a pioneer, a machine. Tapes do more than just record a musical performance. They allow us to re-live over and over an enjoyable road trip to a small club or huge shed far far away or just around the corner; a comically awful interstate meal saved only by a crane machine in the lobby; a new kind friend on a lawn somewhere; a frantic search for that one forgotten audio connector, graciously solved by a fellow taper; a visit to MOMA or South Beach; 2am dinner at a local dive; a well stuffed padded envelope in the mailbox ... and yes, the music, the show, the experience ... an epic 3hr marathon; a singular guitar note; first-heards; clinking glasses; "hey, are you recording this?"; popular songs; weird songs; strange but brilliant one-offs; last shows. Real or vicarious, Brad gave all of this to us. Rest in Peace, BradM. Thank you.
  13. ... to longtime taper, Jason H. and his wonderful bride, Ida. Congratulations, Jason and Ida.

  17. Fuck cancer. Wishing Gord the best. So Sad.
