Yeah, sorry prof. jardine, I can’t see the connection. The EC / twitter situation may have something to do with a security issue on Twitter’s end or at the user’s endpoint(s). In any case, it’s always good to change your passwords, update your OS and applications for patches. The T Bone speech is ex...

I am not following the connection between the twitter hack (was there one?) and the T Bone speech or T Bone comments. Can you elaborate? Maybe provide more detail on what you believe is the connection between the two?

T-Bone, our buddy, preaching the word at SXSW. I've been on board with his ideas in this speech for more than 20 years. T-Bone! Love the dude. An internet that is vertical could create layers that represent finance, legal, arts, and social media rules... Regulations solidly built into the network in...

I love the Lupe-o-Tone response. Shacker is a legend in his own mind who probably has averaged 2 live shows every year for the past 10 years. Anyone read his blog bio? Any dude tinkering within a Django framework is probably contributing to a worthless code base that isn’t helping anyone or adding a...

Still coming down from this show. Good times. Here’s hoping they play Jazz Fest this year. I’ll be there!

Great show!

Is Diamond Ring on the release? I love that song. As for Santa Cruz: « Oh, Santa Cruz please don’t make me choose I’ve painted in reds and whites and blues I’ve got smokeless powder and a splintered board all the way, all the way, all the way down that crooked road to Santa Cruz. » Reds / whites and...

How cute. He is sticking up for his pal without knowing how much stupid is all around us.

Sounds great. Suspect My Tears is very Burt B. Unwanted # is a good one too. Looking forward to seeing this show.

Sad. I lost my dad at 15 (‘84) and my mother passed away on 8/25/18. I’m devastated. On top of that, My mother’s sister (Aunt) just passed this week. And if not to feel lower than ever, my employer issued me a PIP one month after my mother’s death. My life is in a bad state now. Thank goodness I’ll ...

Dylan Jones - A UK journalist? Did he loan his name to a middle school youngster? With such a scrappy review, one would think it was the standard spiel of a US journalist. Surprise surprise. (Signed a disgruntled American)

This guy needs to shut down his YouTube channel and retool or edit or just shut up or something... Just one human's opinion. On the surface, he should get rid of his intro. I'll leave the rest of the review to other board folk. I'm too critical and clueless, I guess.

Driving back from the beach to the airport for a flight to SF, WXPN’s Dan Reed played Unwanted Number. So cool! It’s XPN’s “Gotta Hear” song of the week Nice. Sounds great on the radio! (Old school)

Nice assessment, Doc. Aggressive malignancy. Horrible words. Even worse when used together. Seems like he will be fine. Good news. Maybe get him on a macrobiotic diet. We need him around damn it!

Finally, EC is listening to doctor’s orders and resting. I was surprised he followed through with some of these gigs. I mmediately thought... typical dude not listening to doc’s orders. Hope he can rest/relax and get back out there for the US tour later this year and if can’t handle those dates, the...

Yeah, I would be happy if I spent $250 on tickets but not $750! WTF That's just crazy. I hope Elvis serves you dinner and plays 5 of your requests for that price. Ha, ha! It would be great if I could just block 6 seats in the row and invite friends down to party. Seems like the $ covers 5-6 seats. ...

The Masonic is a Live Nation venue, but why wouldn't they provide me a refund yesterday after an hour and half on the phone with them? I was told Platinum tickets are non-refundable. DAMN - $750 - I bought McCartney tickets at a lower price! Thanks for your note. I'm busy at work and can't really sp...

I couldn't agree more.. I tried to get in on the pre-sale and the only tickets listed where crap balcony tix. I was also getting a lot of site error messages or unable to list / find tickets BS. What's the point of offering fans a pre-sale ticket code with crap balcony seats? Then an hour later, I t...

Oh. nice. Here's hoping they make it to CA, specifically SF because I can just roll over and check out the live show. Fat Fingers crossed.

Bummer. Hope all is ok. Non life threatening - I guess that's positive... Would have been a bitchiin line up with EC there. Next year

Sweet song. Burt B + North. Loving this tune. It goes really well with the late night rain drops in SF right now. Lyrics match the release title. Will be buying this one. PAX on, peace out, and shine on.

Sturgill Simpson is doing just fine in the US. Here he is playing on the Marty Stuart Show: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0H3Htv45jFo I would love to go to this festival but it's a bit of a hassle to get to Charlotte from the west coast. I should have gone to one of the NYC shows, but opted for x-co...
