    New St. Vincent song, I'm a huge fan but I think this is just okay:

     

    casual fan and that's pretty damn good. 

  2. feel like more and more places are doing the all day thing where they don't announce the set times until the day before (hotel vegas, radio east, far out lounge, etc.). i'm more into hopping around different places than sitting in one spot all day. not many bands that i'm familiar with this year but have found a few that sound promising. 

  3. San Juan seemed the most touristy of any of the towns around the lake. It was very heavy on shopping, which I wasn't really interested in. The Friday market in Santiago was nuts, so many vendors. Got a pretty sweet Mayan death mask made by an old Mayan man. 

  4. San Marcos was full of dirty dready foreigner hippies. Like being on phish lot. Not surprisingly it was the dirtiest town we visited. Santiago and San Pedro were my favorites. 20240225_144612.jpg20240225_172107.jpg20240225_180400.jpg20240229_130525.jpg20240228_174202.jpg20240227_154909.jpg20240227_151354.jpg20240227_114436.jpg20240301_074623.jpg

  5. just got back from 2 nights in antigua and 5 nights on lake atitlan. it was interesting and i enjoyed it, but have no desire to go back. visited san juan, tzununa, san pedro, santiago, san marcos. they all have their unique charm but are essentially very similar. found the food as a whole to be very bland and unexciting. people were extremely friendly and the lake was absolutely beautiful. in antigua they have a jesus parade every sunday during lent that was pretty entertaining to watch. everything was extremely cheap. will upload some pics later...

  6. saw him during sxsw at the back room on riverside in maybe 2001...it's my go to answer for worst concert i've ever seen. he wore a leather jumpsuit that was 5 sizes too small and he couldn't even zip it up in the front. did a leg kick after every solo and flicked a pick into the crowd. it was hilariously bad.

    They’re always cooked perfectly, and you can order them with just salt.

    their ordering system has not treated me well with the just salt modification. 99% of the time they still come out with the shitty seasoning. the only time they get it right is if i order directly from the bartender.

  8. Who doesn't love a good convenience store metal concert? Sudden Deaf is the band, they were good. Reminded me of the sword. Apparently this place at 29th and Rio Grande does this regularly. The reactions of people stopping in to buy shit were pretty funny.

  9. it's very much still a thing. the last time i went there were a few in our party who insisted drinking the water at restaurants was fine...they were the same ones with massive diarrhea at the end of the trip. 

  10. Saturday night:

    Daydream Twins- leaned really heavy into the shoegaze aesthetic. vocals were very buried but the singer seemed alright. they were fine but unremarkable. 

    Alex Maas- i've been liking his more lowkey psychedelic stuff in comparison to the heavier black angels material. i think his voice is well suited for it. this was not one of the more inspired sets i've seen from them but was still enjoyable. really like watching robb kidd on drums. 

  11. any specific recs in antigua or lake atitlan? will be in both of those places later this month but don't really have anything specific planned. would like to hike one of the volcanos.

    . I think it would be nearly impossible to see him live and not walk out of the venue with a smile from ear-to-ear.

    i saw this corny ass motherfucker and thought it was terrible. i don't give a shit if your house burned down, your dog died, and you lived in a van...your music sucks. yes i have strong opinions about this guy, found him utterly detestable. i encourage everyone to not listen.

    And it's okay to be friends with dimwits, posers, and doofuses, too.

    well sure, that's the first tenet a deadhead has to accept. these people make up half the crowd afterall.
