  1. Reminds me of a story from bare naked ladies. The band was trying to come up with their name so they decided to partner up with another band who they were playing a bill with.

    The other band named themselves “Free beer”. They all thought a marquee with “free beer” and “bare naked ladies” would get people in the door.

    That’s awesome. 

    I got a poor quality recording of stick doing a cover of pink floyd’s wish you were here from that show.

    I wonder if it was a message sent out to the ether in and around austin that he wishes more people were at the show that night. If it was, the universe responded and now 1000’s are at his shows.

    Last Friday we saw Michael Franti at Red Rocks. Unreal yo.

    Tomorrow night is Thievery Corporation and Beats Antique there. 

    Next Tuesday is Stick Figure in Denver. 

    June 20 is Tash Sultana at RR.

    Good times should be had. 

     

    I saw stick figure in austin (driving down from dallas) at some bar on 6th west of congress  in 2010 after smoke stack dropped. There were less than 20 people there.

    That’s pretty much my only “I was into them before they got big” story.

  4. Any dallas people up for a free show in garland on fri night?

    The Feel is playing at the garland town square. They’re consistently in my ig feed; they give me a black crowes vibe.

    I know what you’re thinking. Garland? GTFO.

    Putting on my sales hat. There’s a pizza place on the square that makes a damn good new haven style pizza. I came to know of the new haven style on a new haven surly thread and recommendations for a couple of places in the italian district of new haven. It slams and goes hard.

    Pizza place on the garland square is Fortunate Son. I’ve been there several times and it’s legit.

    Here’s my plan.

    Fortunate Son for early-ish dinner at the bar. It gets packed cause it’s damn good.

    The Feel on the square.

    Never seen the band live but if they aren’t as advertised there’s a retro arcade and a guitar shop on the square. Might be time to demonstrate my stellar galaga skills and set an unobtainable high score.

    Then… drive to austin on Sat morning-ish to catch black keys at moody amphitheater.

    She's up in 2026 and there's a pretty likeable guy running against her. I'm sure there will be other Ds that want to jump in the race, but this guy has a 2 pt lead against her in recent poling.

    Woke. Woke. Woke.

    Pronouns. Pronouns. Pronouns.

    And the stupids will eat it up.

    Hanged.

    I mean, they might be hung too (at least the two male judges on the panel), and their missus probably wish they were but that's besides the point.
