Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Just hit me that the lick from "Choosin' Texas" borrows heavily from "Two Tickets To Paradise". 000
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 26/09/2026A friend of mine is getting really into gambling. On one hand, I don't approve of this behavior, but on the other hand I don't want to engage in slot shaming. 000
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 24/09/2026My "the eggs we carry are not affected by the current recall" t-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my t-shirt 000

Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I work in clothes manufacturing for nuns. It's a good job, but it's habit forming. 001

Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I wonder if the flat VI chord in 'I Saw Her Standing There' is borrowed from the one in 'Peggy Sue'. 020
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I need space to work. Sound guys, stagehands, festival volunteers, organizers, emcees, hangers on, other performers, fans, please take note: even if it feels weird for you, often the most helpful thing you can do is get the fuck out of the way. 010
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I *like* wrapping cables, and packing up my gear on my own ensures I haven't left something behind before driving East four hundred miles. In your rush to clear the stage, hastily scattering my belongings around actually ensures I'll be on stage *longer*, trying to find where you put everything. 110
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Additionally, when I tear down my musical equipment, I am performing a ritual. You wouldn't rob a coffee head of their ritual by measuring & grinding their beans for them, boiling the water, choosing metal mesh or paper filter, etc. 110
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Some pieces of musical equipment are *more* awkward to move with more movers involved. I have occasionally hurt myself trying to accommodate bad lifting partners, drunk "helpers", those who don't know what they're doing, and so on. My gear has occasionally been damaged this way too. 110
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I'm not playing coy by refusing help with loading my gear. It's not like I'm playfully refusing dessert in hopes you'll talk me into having some. When you say "do you want help carrying that?" and I say "no", that's the fucking end of that conversation. 111
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I'm sorry if I was ever so slightly rude to you after saying "no, thanks" multiple times to your offers to help me move my equipment and then you started "helping" anyway, touching my gear & actively impeding my load out. Not sure how I ever played a gig over the last thirty years without you there. 111
Doug @dougorgan.bsky.social · 12/09/2026There will likely be more dogs at today's gig but none as sweet as Pepper here. Her owner is somehow not @drewtoothpaste.bsky.social. 000
