  2. Saw some great guitar gear at the Jeff Tweedy show the other night. Ā Got my curiosity aroused (see the Concerts thread). Ā 

    First Sima Cunningham got some really nice tones out of one of these bad boys. Ā Essentially a scaled down ES-175 (though judging from Reverb, somehow on a par in price?). Ā

    Ā Then Jeff played one of these, which is just crazy to look at.

  3. The Tweedy show turned out to be something completely different that what I had expected. The last couple times I’d seen him solo he was, well, solo. Just him and a guitar.

    This was him with his kids and their (very competent) friends. So it was a nice mix between a veteran craftsman of song writing and a band with the vitality and rawness of youth. Plus they had an almost Beach Boys esque level of arrangement. Six voices going at once plus all sorts of instruments. Like a garage band orchestra. It was a two hour show of songs I’ve never heard (but for God Save the Queen which was a fun touch at the Longhorn Ballroom) but I never once got bored, which is hard for me to say these days. Plus a ton of cool gear for the guitpron folks. Highly recommended.

    Is Wilco dead?Ā  A triple album by Tweedy seems a bit ominous.

    Nah.Ā

    he's always done quite a bit of solo touring. wilco has their festival in mexico in january.

    This. Ā Wilco typically tours every other year. Ā He's done his own shows in between Wilco touring years so he's touring every year. Ā Now that his kids are involved, I think it's just a fun side thing. Ā

    It's not the price of housing or student loans that's ruining a generation, it's those pesky OF fees.

    The more cursewords Pete Buttigieg is quoted as saying, the higher his chances are of being president one day. Ā If he had started his tweet with ā€œThis dumb motherfucker right hereā€¦ā€ it would have been even more effective.

    This is how every sentence regarding this fucking guy should begin. Ā

    i think it starts to matter pretty quickly when mass amounts of people can't afford food and meemaw and peepaw have to choose between their house or a doctors appointment.Ā  this is the pain and suffering they voted for and we all warned them about.Ā  i got my popcorn ready.

    This. Ā Easily misguided people only give a fuck about some trans kid winning a swim meet in Possum Pecker, Wisconsin when things are going relatively well for them. Ā When that space in their minds is currently being occupied by the price of rent, gas and groceries, they have less time to hate some random that doesn't affect them on a day to day basis.

    This is not to say we shouldn't be wary of the authoritarian nature of the current admin, we most definitely should. Ā But it is no longer "Joe Biden's economy" and the scales are falling - albeit slowly from some of our fellow citizens eyes. Ā 

    Tempered optimism over here. Ā But there is a lot of time between now and November 2026 for things to happen both good and bad.

    Got to play the hits when you’ve got nothing else. Ā I did nazi that coming.

    Lavrov says Russia won't end the war unless Ukraine capitulates.Ā 

    Russia's position hasn't changed at all.

    "Among other absolutely essential conditions for a settlement - such as demilitarization, the removal of any threats to the Russian Federation, including by preventing Ukraine from being dragged into NATO, the protection of the rights of Russians and Russian-speaking people, and of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church - there is also the requirement of denazification.Ā 

    This is not something we have invented, not an idea alien to modern Europe. After all, there was the Nuremberg Tribunal, the results of which became part of the UN Charter and part of the foundation of the international system established after World War II. Undoubtedly, all of Europe agreed to this. Germany, in particular, went through a process of denazification and repentance. Unfortunately, today - perhaps even starting with Germany itself - we feel that this repentance has come to mean very little."

    From the Every Accusation is a Confession File - International Edition. Ā 

    Awesome that he's invoking Nuremberg when he and his master should be sitting in the dock next up. Ā Do everyone a favor and pull a Goering buddy.
