  1. He didn't mention the Shag but he did refer to him as the rock thrower and that he had like 200 911 calls reporting the "accidents". Jeff said he never opens his mail at work because it probably has ricin it it lol. He said Ed Clements brought it to him so he opened it for once and it was crazy txtow's screed.
  2. Jeff Ward said on the radio yesterday that TXTow recently wrote him a 3 page insane letter.
  3. I have an actual Kiowa buddy who grew up on a reservation. He tells me that half of the white dudes he has met claim to be 1/16th (not 1/4 as I said earlier) Cherokee. He assumes because they were deemed one of the most civilized (alphabet etc).
  4. Let me guess, he's 1/4 Cherokee?
  5. Too soon motherfucker
  6. The Shithouse Choir was an old listserve email chat group for Todd's fans. They (we) call themselves Shitheads.
  7. Do you know any of the Austin Shithouse Choir?
  8. He wasn't acting in Sling Blade.
  9. It wasn't written as much as rubbed out with a towel.
  10. Last of the 20 or so times i saw him. If you're in the men's bathroom at dbt and see Todd Snider Rulz written on the wall, you're welcome.
  11. What was even cooler was Brian his manager came over to us right before the show and asks us for weed because "We brought an ounce yesterday and he's smoked it all and he is melting down." I only had one joint on me so I tore it in two, gave him half and Todd got his head right so, you know, I pretty much saved the show. The news was good.
  12. Anyone else at the Gruene Halloween show where his costume was Jerry Jeff Walker and he (JJW) told his life story and played JJW songs songs all night. No one knew he was going to that and some people were pissed and called out for TS songs. He would just say "HEY! I'M JERRY JEFF WALKER!" He did play one Todd sojg because it was one that JJW recorded. Maybe Alright Guy?
  13. This might be my most treasured musical moment ever. Recorded at the Moody where I dragged my group of friends down to see some dude that I had been going on and on about as if he were Eddie Van Halen and the Eddie Van Halen Band. I've made close lifelong friends by going to Todd's shows and they are all crushed this morning. To me these lines are some of the best poetry ever written and seem fitting today: Good lord if you're up there you sure got some nerve Seems that even the wicked get worse than they deserve We're afraid to die Every goddamned one of us I swear to god it's like you're making fun of us Not worth keepin', or too good to keep You got a better kinda secret, better wait 'til I'm asleep And if you're so God almighty well then what's with all this mystery? Yes, I wanna trust you, buddy, but you're clearly keeping secrets from me Too soon to tell. Sail on Todd.
  14. I think he has passed. At least the Shithouse Choir thinks so. I'm fucking crushed. Like losing a brother. I'm gonna literally cry myself to sleep in my favorite tshirt that I happened to wear to Stop Making Sense at the Paramount tonight with my only child who grew up singing todd songs with me on road trips. I hope it's a dream. Fuck
