  1. Bass player in my sometimes band loves the Dan. Hates Tom Petty. All around great guy, really good bass player, insanely cool Fodera basses. But I always kinda think he should be arrested for those opinions.

  2. Somebodies bond got rejected...   oppsie!    I guess he has to upload his financials too

    Documents for Donald Trump's $175 million bond in his New York civil fraud case were rejected by a court because a current financial statement was not included.
    On Wednesday, a message on the New York State Supreme Court's electronic filing system showed Trump's "Bond/Undertaking" had been "returned for correction."
    New York State Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron ruled in February against Trump; his two eldest sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump; and others associated with the Trump Organization. They were accused in a lawsuit from New York Attorney General Letitia James of inflating the former president's net worth and the value of his properties to obtain better loan and insurance terms. Trump has denied all accusations.
    On Monday, Trump posted a $175 million bond in the case, ensuring that James does not seize any of his assets or bank accounts during his appeal.
    Newsweek reached out to Trump representative Steven Cheung by email for comment about the documents rejection.
    He had originally been ordered to pay $454 million in damages after Engoron found him and others liable for misleading lenders. An appeals court granted Trump's request last week to lower his bond amount to $175 million after his lawyers argued that it was a "practical impossibility" to fulfill the original penalty.
    Criminal defense attorney Jeffrey K. Levine, who represented former Trump attorney Michael Cohen, posted an explanation on X (formerly Twitter) about the court's rejection message. He included New York County Supreme Court document number 1707, which could explain why Trump's bond filing was returned to his lawyers.
    According to Levine's post, Trump will need to share recent financial records in order for his bond to be accepted.
    BREAKING NEWS:
    Court rejected #TrumpBond filing in #TrumpFraudVerdict for several reasons, 1 of which was #Trump failed to upload his "current financial statement" to the Court [looking forward to read].
    175 million reasons why 1 mistake should not have been made, much less 3 ! pic.twitter.com/qk7nLskx5F

    The New York County Supreme Court document he shared read:
    "The court has returned the documents listed below for the following reasons: Please include a current financial statement and Power of Attorney. Additionally, please list the name of the Attorney-in-Fact under the signature line on the Undertaking. Please use the 'Refile Document' link for Doc. No. 1707 to resubmit the corrected filing. Thank you and have a great day."
     

    So the guy who got convicted of fraudulently overstating his finances is supposed to now all of a sudden post a legit financial statement huh?

  3. This wins for me. On the Empire tour they played the entire Operation Mindcrime. Still one of the best concerts I’ve eve seen and I’ve seen hundreds. Even better than The Wall which was awesome. 

    I don’t know if it’s best or not. But I think it’s damn good. And underrated. Kind of always suspected it would get made into a movie.

    This, The Wall, and RHS are my favorites.
  4. Should have put $20 million into making good music. 

    Can’t buy that bro.

    But I can get behind that kind of giving to kids with cancer.

  5. You ain't tired of this BS argument yet? I see that shit from half of r/Austin and it is such disingenuous bullshit. 
    "Hey, the homeless situation causes some serious financial, environmental, and societal costs. We have machete attacks, murders, fires, and tons of trash."
    "Oh, you just don't like seeing poor people!"
    GTFO.

    I don’t follow your point.
  6. But let’s be honest about the homeless “problem”. The problem isn’t that the don’t have a dwelling. No one really cares if they have houses. A “solution” to the problem, in everyone’s eyes just means that we don’t have to see these ugly people in places we want to be.

    Call it what it is.

  7. Era is everything. There had never really been anything like DLR when he showed up.

    I can confirm Axl was seriously bad ass in the early days. Saw them in 87 at Palmer. Holy shit.

    But DLR established the standard that Axl and pretty much everyone else followed.

  8. Hand wringing over a solution to the homeless “problem” always cracks me up.

    Houses get built when someone thinks they can profit from doing so. No one profits from building houses for people who can’t pay. So they don’t get built.

    There are only two possible solutions: 1) steal money from your electorate (taxes) to pay builders enough so they can make a profit and will build, or 2) steal money from your electorate (taxes) and build it yourself. There is no other answer.

    But people are people and like to fuck chickens and wring hands and grandstand to get votes and so on and so on. So here we are.
