Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I watched a movie last night that was bleak as hell: The Kid Detective. 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Open letter to camerapeople: When you're shooting closeups of guitar players, nobody cares about their picking hands. 002
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 28/09/2026That's one of the most depressing things I've ever read. 000
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Saw this last night. It was good, like Matt says. 0112
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Cheap Fix show this weekend. Early Saturday afternoon (2:30) at the 13th Floor. We play last. So, 5:30? All the bands are great. I'm looking forward to this. Poster by Lisa Dirocco. 050
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 14/09/2026In this episode, he's a smug, judgmental snob who acts completely entitled and flaunts his amorality without any compunction. And apparently kills birds by the dozens. And Susie wasn't given nearly enough to do. Hope it picks up from here. 000
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 14/09/2026A lot of shows I like have new seasons starting up. I started with The Gentlemen last night. I found the first episode disappointing. In the first season, Eddie wasn't your average aristocrat. He had humility, and it was compelling to watch him grapple with the fluctuating morality of his situation. 110
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I thought of this because I was being buffeted, and it made me think of Warren Buffet. And then I started thinking of Warrens. So, I guess I should include the first four Buffets I thought of. 000
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 14/09/2026He played with my friend Joe once. It was great. 000
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Not a movie, but did anyone see Mrs. Davis? Pretty bonkers. 000
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 04/09/2026"I’m still here, eating shrimp over the sink alone." Great first line for a song. 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 04/09/2026The last two shows I've watched both feature killer nurses. 010

Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Introduce yourself with 15 acts you’ve seen live: Krokus Man or Astroman? Shannon Wright Jonathan Fire*Eater Nation of Ulysses Deadly Snakes John Spencer Blues Explosion T. Tex Edwards & the Affordable Caskets Deadbolt Ruby Falls Rodan Dead Milkmen T-Model Ford Love and Rockets Six Finger Satellite 030
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 31/08/2026He's on the main drag, and he thinks that's good. 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 27/08/2026I have plans to steal one currently, if I can get my bandmates to learn it. It will not be a hit. 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 24/08/2026No cheating. Share the last photo of the sky from your camera roll (if you feel like it) 020
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 24/08/2026This may be Big Jeff's favorite. One of them, anyway. 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Washington, D.C.!! Get yourself out the house this Saturday and see some of the country's best authors discuss their books! 173
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Stop putting cameras in things. Cameras are cool. Let cameras be cameras. 020
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Every time I drive past that empty Dos Hermanos lot (which is all the time), I feel a pang. What a loss. 120
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 13/08/2026His art doesn't make any sense unless you're seeing it at its actual scale. 110
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Being homesick sounds like you ate too much home. 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Pam has another devastating, deeply reported story out today. A profoundly human and affecting story. Please read. 062
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 28/06/2026And just like that I’m back in Austin. What is even happening? 010
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 26/06/2026A crazy thing about today is that this morning I’m in Austin, but tonight I’ll be in Dallas. 110
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Do you live in or near Dallas? Do you want to see me? If you answered "yes" to both of those questions (or even just to the first one), then come to the Twilite Lounge Friday night. Long Black Car, Cheap Fix, and the Hillside Wranglers. It's so easy, it should be a crime! 040
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Saturday. June 13. The Aristocrat. Cheap Fix and Rocket 808. DJs Doug Niemczura and Schooley at 4:00. Rocket 808 at 5:00. Cheap Fix at 6:00. All ages. Free. Loud. 030
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 04/06/2026Yesterday, I did something to my body. I subjected it to exertion. Was it fair? Uncertain. Was it wise? Probably not. Will it seek revenge? Almost assuredly. Nevertheless, I will probably do it again. I make these feeble efforts even as I know the body will one day take me down. 120
Chad Nichols @chadlowtel.bsky.social · 04/06/2026The how-to guide for summer was written 51 years ago by Harry Wayne Casey. It consists of only three instructions: 1. Do a little dance. 2. Make a little love. 3. Get down tonight. 010
