Played an open mic tonight with my friend. Live sound is hard. Live electric banjo sound is harder! Nonetheless, we must learn by doing, and the crowd seemed into it.

this country needs to get its priorities in order. I move that Pink Lady should just be the default in places where Red Delicious is usually provided

New Orleans must be unique as a place where jazz is a tourist attraction, right?

Agreed, not a big fan of the regular Tabasco, but you should try their Garlic Pepper Sauce variety if you haven’t. Not really that spicy, great on many things

I love this explanation of where Kurt Wagner got the Lambchop name

Quote from Kurt Wagner: “When pretty women say Lambchop, their faces end in an upturned smile as opposed to a frown, and that made the decision for me– that, and I was sick of dealing with it. I figured nobody was gonna fucking call their band Lambchop. It was stupid enough that no one would sue us.”

- King Sunny Adé at the 9:30 Club in 2010. I had seen him at Bonnaroo, most amazing show I've ever seen. Two of his band members died in a car accident in Nigeria and the tour was canceled. (1/2)

my favorite was one in Charlottesville in 1996 the summer I lived there that just had the most incredibly curated and organized collection. I went only a few times but it was the best
