Seeing this film title gives me some serious nostalgia: my late father was a fan of it, and made sure we watched it.
Now only the smokestacks are there. (At least in the case of Homestead.)
This worked out pretty well. Even with my short time frame for rehearsal, the difference tones got the stage shaking. It was hilarious.
For him, any of our annual incomes is less than a rounding error.
I was going to rewrite one of his headlines in the Homestar Runner voice, but every one I tried just made me feel bad that I was maligning Homestar Runner.
The new neighborhood ice cream van seems to have screams edited into the song loop.
Monday night's 215th #ambient #guitar #improv is now available on Bandcamp, featuring lush and hopeful vibes. $0/name-your-price as always: snwv.bandcamp.com/album/music-...
I'll break with protocol and mention a cover I worked on with a couple friends. My thought was "What if 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough' was done by Om?"

I think a turning point may have been Katy Vine's very good piece in the Texas Monthly, in 1999.
In 2003, I put on an Open Mic Jandek Cover Night, which I did for ten years. By the time of the second one in 2004, he was playing live. (But my event surely had nothing to do with it.)
Parenting can so often be one hard-mode challenge after another. I'm glad you both have a moment to breathe.
Would buy the foreground-bird's gritty album about how tough life is for birds.
I think the conversation context here was more abbreviating "Fleetwood Mac" as "FM," rather than a conversation about the history of frequency-modulated radio broadcasting. But still, good info, and thanks for the links!
I'm fond the song Steely Dan were strong-armed into doing for the soundtrack.
They're like four different bands with the same name (and rhythm section, which explains the same-name thing). Lots of bands have complex history, though FM seems unique, having these very distinct periods.
Tricky to play! Notes are a lot closer together than I'm used to...and not quite in the usual places. I can't fall back on reflexes. It's very cool.
Is it a coincidence that I'm performing a microtonal guitar show tomorrow night?
Just Intonation and Telecaster (Deluxe) advocates may be interested in my finally-assembled* Tele Deluxe partscaster, with a neck fretted in 24-to-the-2/1 just intonation. (Neck by Metatonal Music.)
* It took me way longer than I anticipated to wire and assemble. But it exists.
Today, someone in Germany should have received a rejection email from the Smart11 recruiting firm. Sadly, they weren't quite smart enough to sign up with their own email address.
Tonight, Monday May 27, from 8:00-9:30 PM EDT (GMT -4), I'll perform my 215th #ambient #guitar #improv #livestream of the pandemic era. Tonight might be either PureSalem Mendiola or $60 Univox in Bb F. Find out where the vibe takes us at 8 tonight. twitch.tv/onezeromusic

For a long weekend, it's been full of activity, so here's something I tracked in a late-night-Saturday/Sunday session: three tracks of PureSalem Mendiola in standard tuning. This one was channeling a ...

Misreading of the day: seeing a link to Josh Scott's "How to Use an eBow the Right Way" video but reading it as "How to Use an eBow in a Fight."
Clearly she’s in a band with three other bunnies with different facial markings. Do you have their Bandcamp link?

(Saloon door creaks open. Piano playing stops. The sound of slow bootsteps on old wooden boards.) "Ah hear you have...a writer's group."
"We used an LLM to write all the news stories for the next year IN ADVANCE!"
Looks like the original suit was 1988 also, though Frito-Lay appealed in 1992, referencing the Midler lawsuit. Interesting reading.

I'm not sure how the delivery driver got it up there, or how you'll get it down.
searxng.site and its mirrors seems promising, though Apple's browser doesn't seem to allow setting it as the preferred search engine.

During the few weeks I've not worked with the Fahey-tuned Univox, the weather's changed: it's much warmer, and the wood, remembering that it was once a tree, has taken on some of the humidity in the a...
