Bob Moses at The Palace theater tonight. When this started, my first thought was “huh, kinda ripped off NIN” … then it built and holy shit, what a great cover. This isn’t a song many bands would take on, let alone do well. Bob Moses was fantastic live. Enjoy this clip!

Can report that Freya Skye did not choose to yell “fuck ice” from the Filmore stage tonight in Minneapolis as is customary and appropriate. Although in fairness, the average age (ignoring all the parents) at the show was probably well below the age where that common phrase is expected.

7:00pm tonight, I went to the end of our street with a candle. It's -5° but no wind so not too bad. 15 of my neighbors were gathered on the corners. We met, and smiled, and shared the horror of the day together. We saw candles on other corners in the cold. No pictures to respect their privacy.

The state/region section covered the #NoKings protests, but the story missed the key point that the number of meaningful turnout events across not just major cities, but at the neighborhood level as well happened across the nation.

Today’s front page is why I just canceled my subscription to the @startribune.bsky.social I drove past a quarter mile of 3 deep protesters along both sides of a road in my own neighborhood to get to one of the biggest rallies in Minneapols in recent years. Here is the Sunday paper:

Minneapolis really turned out a crowd. Hard to judge numbers within the crowd but the march itself wrapped around the entire route after the rally.

Couldn’t post from the rally in Minneapolis earlier, so here is a fun thread of signs!

Sign reads:
2+2=5
War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength

WetLeg at First Ave. in Minneapolis tonight was incredible. What an insanely good show. Rhian Teasdale is destined to be rock royalty, she had that crowd wrapped around her finger. Definitely a top 10 post-pandemic show.

Was behind this odd box truck with windows on the sides and back doors at MSP terminal 1 departures this morning. It had two bench seats and 6-8 guys in t-shirts, sunglasses, baseball hats (not matching) carrying backpacks sitting in the back. It had US Govt plates. It felt out of place.

Box truck with US Government license plates. You can see people on shorts, t-shirts, sunglasses and baseball hats sitting in the back on bench seats arranged along each side. The truck is pulling up at MSP airport departures drop off location. The truck is white, and has windows on the sides and the back. A unique/ unusual design.
