  1. Rusty dusty- only saw one song but they seemed alright. Power pop. Jess helios- really awful space cadet jamband hippie shit. Gus baldwin and the sketch- garage punk. great energy and good songs, will see them again. Kenton Mackay- 90's guitar rock sound. they were pretty good, seemed like they hadn't played together much. Probably worth seeing again.
  2. free week seems less exciting than usual this year. will probably hit up mohawk or parish tonight.
  3. saw gilmour's tour in 2005 when rick wright was playing with him. echoes was sublime. i had purposely avoided looking at setlists for the tour and was absolutely floored when i heard those opening notes.
  4. still had to shit in a hole so i'm counting it.
  5. nine point draw in big bend, great site. added a 2nd solar panel and a new lithium battery to the van before the trip. heaven.
  6. spent dec 24-jan 1 in alpine/big bend/terlingua. alpine on christmas eve was dead, not even a place to get a beer. bock burger was open and once again a solid burger sold from the side window of a house. big bend was the busiest i've ever seen it, there was a line of cars waiting to get in the basin on a 1 in 1 out situation and all of the trailheads were more than full. our goal was to get as much solitude as possible and we succeeded, didn't see another person on any of the hikes we did. days were perfect and nights were cold, 21 degrees was the lowest 8am temp we saw. spent nye in terlingua. had a good time at the boathouse and watched some fireworks in the parking lot of starlight. in bbnp we did banta shut-in, san vicente cemetery, bone spring, and old castolon river road. did the lajitas mesa hike on nye day. camped at k-bar, nine point draw, and cottonwood.

    Vinyl

    they ended up refunding the order but still sending the records. apparently a lot of people were pissed that they ordered during black friday and didn't get the order by christmas.
  8. Greg Rolie- santana, journey
  9. My cousin sent me these...not sure if this was 88 or 89. I remember being so excited about standing on the field...took home a handful of the crushed brick from the warning track. Also remember thinking the players were HUGE. Got a few autographs and got to run the bases. Ruben Sierra, Cecil Espy, Scott Fletcher, Bobby Witt, Jim Sundberg.
  10. learned recently that in the catalonia region they have an interesting addition to their nativity scene...a bare assed man pooping. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caganer
  11. didn't know there was a musk involved, but the kitchen in Boulder is really good. try to go there any time i'm in town.
  12. incredible, wish there were more pictures. good to know that even in 1976 people thought aerosmith sucked.
  13. this whole album is dirty and i feel like it's really overlooked. love this song...was also on the dusk til dawn sountrack.

    Vinyl

    the blue note vinyl i ordered during their sale on november 21 still hasn't shipped. fuckers.
  15. 1. QOTSA- In Times New Roman. A return to form after their last album that was somewhat disappointing. Took a few listens to sink in but it's very good. 2. Night Beats- Rajan. Back to their roots with some excellent psych rock. 3. Death Valley Girls- Islands in the Sky. Garage rock/psych. 4. Nude Party- Ride On. A little more mellow but still has the same 60's psych/garage sound happening. 5. Rodeo Boys- Home Movies. 90's throwback guitar rock. 6. Dropper- Don't Talk to Me. Power pop/rock 7. Crosses- Good Night, God Bless, I Love U, Delete. Deftones' dark wave cousin. 8. Ghost Woman- Hindsight is 50/50. Brooding psych rock. Heavier and darker than their previous releases. 9. Oh Sees-Intercepted Message. Catchy synth punk. 10. Yasawa Group- Enter the Chrysalis. Shiny indie guitar pop.
  16. saw attic ted's christmas opera "mary's little secret" last night. my favorite austin christmas tradition. mary's secret is that she cheated on joseph and made up the whole virgin birth thing. it's always entertaining watching people slowly realize what's going on and becoming increasingly offended.
  17. man, i saw them at the french legation museum during sxsw in...2013? they were definitely in high school and had no idea what they were doing, but weren't bad.
  18. it's avril lavigne for the current generation, with slightly better songwriting...maybe.
  19. just picture a stage in the middle of a holiday market and that's the vibe. they do sell alcohol and the majority of people are not there for the music.
  20. That was a monster setlist. I was standing right next to the "first it giveth" guy. Fucking Mexicola too! Holy hell that was good. Spiritualized was pretty low energy but I enjoyed it, qotsa was just on another level entirely. Homme seemed like he was loving it. Glad we got a song for the dead closer, they didn't play it when I saw them a couple months ago...Jon Theodore is an absolute beast. Shit, the whole band was impressive. Might have been the best concert of the year for me.
  21. reeeeaaaally fucking excited about qotsa and spiritualized tonight. qotsa has been extremely tight this tour.

    Texas BBQ

    yep, they showed the process on their instagram stories. looks like it's smoked, chilled, then fried. the breading had a nice crunch and then you got the good smoky flavor at the end. definitely a once a year type of meal.

    Texas BBQ

    Last night was the chicken fried beef rib at stiles switch. Decadent and glorious.
