    The Reggae Thread

    In 2010, I drove to Austin from Dallas to see Stick Figure at an outdoor bar venue; there were probably 20 people at the show. I got a very low quality recording of him doing a cover of pink floyd’s wish you were here. Saw him at the factory in dallas last may. 1000+ people there.
  2. I saw them when they passed through Dallas. They played a small venue here. Probably 50 people in the audience. During one song, Faherty was jamming, walked through the crowd and up to bar. Kept playing, and hung around the patrons at the bar jamming away. Really entertaining stuff. Walked back through the audience and back to the stage and finished the song. They were at the merch table before and after the show. Chatting and taking pics with whoever wanted to come over. I got some vinyl and got it signed. You’re gonna have a great time. These guys put on a great show. Constantly chatting up the audience during their show.
  3. I hope Brian Jonestown Massacre stops in Dallas when they’re in the area. A few other of those bands playing on Sat are stopping in Dallas. BJM’s website doesn’t even list their show at Levitation. Neither does bands in town app.
  4. I appreciate the timeline. Gotta figure out timing to call it a day at work in conjunction with avoiding traffic as much as possible.
  5. I’m going. Never seen Willie. I want to before it’s too late. Also, looking forward to seeing Whisky Meyers. Suffering the heat is a badge of honor.

  7. I dig the slow version of wave of mutilation that they played. I was listening to Doolittle B sides on the way to the show and was enjoying the slow version. Glad they did that interpretation at the show.
  8. Pixies tonight at Southside in Dallas. It was packed. At least two people were carried out: one during the first opener Bully and another during the Pixies set. I’m guessing the headcount was at capacity (1500?). Crowd had poor phone etiquette. Lots of people holding them above their heads. Bully was really good. I like their sound. Not into Franz Ferdinand but the lead singer really put a lot into the show. Pixies started strong and ended strong. Really glad they played Head On.
  9. This is so good. Pulitzer should create a new category for art installations. That, or stretch another category’s definition to include art installations.

    New Music 2023

    *sees bat signal* I’m looking forward to seeing Bully open for Pixies and FF in dallas this weekend.
  11. Did Stapleton play Watch you burn? I saw him at Choctaw in March; he was amazing but the casino’s time restrictions make for an abbreviated set. He’s coming back to Dallas in Oct, and I want to see his performance of a song fueled by anger. Wondering if there’s a possibility of him playing Watch you burn.
  12. I wear it with pride. I’m at the show and seated beside a woman that’s trippin acid and regaling me with tales of her meeting noel gallagher.
  13. I got garbage, noel gallagher and metric tonight at starplex. Seeing 90’s bands. I’m using the 90’s name for the venue.
  14. Nice. I saw the Black Tones last Oct. They put on a good show. I have tix for pixies/MM/bully for next Sat and tix for Black angels/dandy warhols in Oct.
  15. I have family in Tulsa. Gonna head up there with MrsX in July to see The Chicks. It’s one of the few concerts she actually wants to go to. Dandy Warhols and Black Angels are coming to Dallas in Oct. It’s at a venue I haven’t heard of or been to: Ferris Wheelers’s Backyard and BBQ. There’s a ferris wheel in their backyard. Hence the name. They have a few other acts coming in Sept. Not interested in them myself but I recognize the names: Tangerine Dream, Ghostland Observatory. It’s bit cryptic but I think the Warhols and BA tix go on sale tomorrow.
  16. Antifa spit on his kids. Methhead wore his maga gear rather than his nazi gear to this outing.
  17. I just listened to the King of Oklahoma. That one may just be a one-and-done for me. My sister and BIL lived in Tulsa. That song will make me relive seeing my BIL’s brain matter on the garage floor, seeing the life drain from my sister’s eyes, giving her CPR until the paramedics arrived, and feeling the last squeeze of her hand in the ICU before her brain began to swell.
  18. That’s terrible. My sister and brother-in-law both got hooked on opioids in the 00’s. Her due to migraines and him due to a high school football injury to his shoulder. In 2017, they both committed suicide. He shot himself in their garage, and she intentionally OD’d the following night. They were financially successful but physically broken. Fentanyl is another danger now. He might consider moving to a different country where they treat this as a disease rather than a crime.
