  1. While it may feel cathartic to blame this on Elmo, and he didn't help, this is basically decades of neglect building up in our air traffic system. It started back when Reagan fired all the air traffic controllers and it's been enshittening ever since. Airspace infrastructure is not a sexy sell, so it's easy for one administration to pass the buck to another and so on. That's likely a completely separate issue from what caused this particular aircraft incident. When a plane crashes, we look to mechanical or pilot issues. If a plane crashes into another plane, that's more likely an air control issue. No controller ever says "aim it at the ground."
  2. As was the blatant shilling for his own tequila and about a million other things. Everything at the merch tent was absolutely horribad from the Ts down to stickers. Looked like it was conceived by some band member's wannabe designer girlfriend. Like Spinal Tap worthy bad. I mean, you had to laugh at some point at the crass commercialism of it. Still, I gotta say Joe Satriani is probably one of about 2-3 dudes on the planet who can credibly step into EVH's shoes. And Michael Anthony did a really great "Ain't Talking Bout Love" rendition. That was a welcome surprise.
  3. I saw it during Waxahatchee's set at Wilco. Some boomer who clearly didn't want to be there, asked folks in front to sit down for his wife (20 years his junior, good for them both, I guess)? Dude in front of him was "cool, I'll do that now. But all bets are off when Wilco comes on." The couple left when Wilco came on? My new standard to this is "fuck you, this is a rock show." You wanna sit down, go to the fucking opera or buy a box. Get off my cloud, boomer.
  4. Last week I got to see Sammy Hagar/Joe Satriani/Michael Anthony. Someone threw a plastic bottle at my back and yelled for me to sit down. I was like, "Bitch?!! This is a rawk show?!" Fucking olds. The next night was Dead and Co at the Sphere. Amazing venue. Both of these were free (for me) shows. So while I probably wouldn’t have gone otherwise, it was a big win for me. Of note, both Sammy and Bob Weir are 77. Sammy looks like he could run a marathon today and Bob looks like a pirate who just crawled out from under a rock. On another note, an Austin buddy just picked up Pixies tix for Moody. So we will all be able to compare notes on that.
  5. Can’t be said enough, for myriad reasons.
  6. Oceania is not at war with East Asia. East Asia has always been at war with Oceania.
  7. And when Article 5 gets invoked, that fucking pussy ass guy backs down and holds the US out. Count on it.
  8. How long until world leaders just say, "Nah, I'll pass" when invited to the WH?
  9. Seconded. I've been involved with some legal issues that are most assuredly individual vs. corporations, and he took the real people side along with us and was overtly against corporate bad acts. It was a strange feeling.
  10. The way the driver has the cig loosely hangin from his lips as the cop car plows into the driver's door. That guy has done this before.
  11. This is going to happen. And everyone will have to salute when they walk by.
  12. Kid crocs are a nice touch.
  13. So like any other current GOP Rep, is what you're saying?
  14. Yup. Totally a worthwhile use of Congressional time.
  15. I'm sure this addresses the needs of the people of South Carolina's 1st District.
  16. Yeah, hey, guess who's gonna be there? Uh, who? My favorite cover band, Crystal Shit Wow Yeah, they do a Doors show, you'd be really impressed, in fact, it goes a little like this Love me two times, baby Love me twice today Love me two times, girl 'Cause I got AIDS Love me two times, baby Once for tomorrow Once cause I got AIDS
  17. I mean, one look at that guy and we all why he did it.
  18. War is Peace. Perpetual war is part of the Putin plan. See Transnistria, Ossetia, Abkhazia...
  19. You know you can’t just leave it here. There is more information that is required.
  20. Best thread title ever.
  21. You know, the best time to have bought a guitar is 10 years ago. The second best time is today.
