Someone in my neighborhood still rides one those stupid tall bikes. It’s like seeing one of the last of an endangered species out in the wild. No lights. Maybe embarrassed or maybe secretly wants to be hit.

Helen - Linda’s Head Liz Harris’s “rock” band with Eat Skull and Eternal Tapestry peeps that sounds like a murky lost cousin of Tiger Trap and Black Tambourine that maybe could occasionally share a stage with Bardo Pond. Glad we’re getting a second album and hopefully more activity from this project

The “Choosing Texas” discourse is pretty dumb. A bunch of people who only listen to music they discover via their social networks, devices, and algorithms finding that something is popular outside of that and declaring it a psyop.

Paul Buchanan - Mid Air I believe the only solo offering of the Blue Nile singer. You know that piano ballad “Family Life” on Peace at Last where he’s on the verge of breaking down the whole time? This is like a whole album of that.

I have little use for the Jill Stein led Greens especially in this era of DSA, but find the case for her being a spoiler fairly unconvincing. That said wtf is she even currently campaigning for?

The local jazz station has been celebrating John Coltrane’s 100th birthday all month. And it made me realize why despite thinking his music is maybe some of the most powerful and beautiful made by anyone ever, that there’s a reason I only listen to it in small bits.

TBH in 2026 “Todd Rundgren? Who?” is actually a fairly legitimate question. This is from someone who can provide a 14 point dissertation on his general awesomeness.

Adam @grimisham.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Todd Rundgren is a legendary musician but also a legendary shit talker. And unsurprisingly off line enough to think you can just wade into T Swift discourse like that. His full quote is even dumber than it’s being reported.

I’ve seen someone claim it’s a complex story so it won’t have an impact, but if the Nytimes can can summarize it as “F.B.I. Shut down inquiry into a top ally of Senator Collins” I’m going to say that’s more than people need to latch on.
