This day in history: The Battle of Gettysburg was fought July 1–3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. The battle involved the largest number of casualties of the entire war and is often described as the war's turni...

No west coast dates. Bummer. May have to haul it out to Concord to see EC and the band. Brutal.

I see the recent news on this now. Hot story. Should I care or be surprised? No, not at all. PEACE.

This happened in 2008? Why are we flashing back to this story when the whole world is ready to go up in flames with the various bozos we have leading/running our countries. The question that really should be asked here: How much was the insurance payout related to this fire?

Isn’t EC a US citizen as well? He seems to be one
International dude. Britain-US-CAN, right? Well deserved recognition. It’s about time.

PS - take out go to die.. no harm to Jimbo, obviously... where crap music critics thrive? (In the lower bowels of a
1970s toilet stall.

Jim Harrison - major tool. I can’t believe this guy lives in the Bay Area. Just shows you how low the bar has gone in the world of local news/journalism. I don’t know if I’ll be going to this show. Concord Pav is a schlep from SF... Not a fan of the venue either. Would be fun to run into Harrison, p...

Hopefully, all the complaining will stop. It was a bit of drag to scroll through this board and see all the whining going on about a record or series of records. Sorry, that’s at least how I feel about it. Enjoy listening and looking at the art. I’m heading outdoors with my lame earbuds. For a bit o...

Cool. Nice to see artists showing respect to EC and his band mates. Happy to see rather gandering at the current state of the music industry which is - #twowordreview #shitsandwinch #ihatehashtags #killmenow

Marc Maron interviews T Bone. Dig it!

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)
