It was the best of times. It was the blurst of times.

We need lots of straightforward press coverage of how authoritarian regime change happens and what it means in everyday life.

So many great stories but my fav has to be Lou Reed on stage trying to figure out why the kids are chanting “Primus Sucks”

[Ray Padgett @rayfp]

A recent Dylan sound guy answers my niche questions about Bob-show oddities. Why are there extra mics onstage? Are all the shows recorded? Why did the crew nickname Bob The Scanner’?

Plus backstage Bobfest stories about Neil, Lou, Sinead, Sheryl and more

@VallysView @csahockey .@VallysView watching at home as K’Andre Miller beats Husso under the glove after a beautiful cross ice pass from Mika. #NYR

Watching a random tech company I had never heard of until a month ago just casually destroy one of the few places left that activity explores and supports true independent and obscure music just sucks so so much

[Jeff Weiss @Passionweiss]

Deep rage, sadness & frustration at the Bandcamp layoffs (along with everything else atm)

The editorial team built one of the best & most dependable platforms for independent musicians to be celebrated & discovered. Only to be gutted by corporate greed. Same story ad infinitum

[Lars Gotrich 🍷🌊 @totalvibration]

Bandcamp is one of my favorite places to find music.
The work done by BC's editorial, tech and support staffs make it one-of-a-kind in an often unkind industry.

Today's layoffs today hurt. And fundamentally misunderstand what makes Bandcamp work and gave it value.

@LibbyCudmore Do you have an invite to the other app by any chance?

Good morning. Over at @Stereogum, I wrote about Ween's divorce album—and what happens when a couple of foul-mouthed, Boognish-worshiping weirdos grow up and write "serious" songs.

Paul Reubens/Pee-Wee Herman did literally 1,000 things in his lifetime that made me laugh out loud and not just small chuckles, but big, joyful laughs.

But nothing made me laugh more than this. It's never left my head.

RIP, Paul Reubens

Got turned on to this great album by the fine staff @amoebamusic in LA, who rec’d it while I was purchasing some Big Star vinyl.

[Good Steely Dan Takes @baddantakes]

ICYMI, the gods have answered our prayers.

A tape containing a high fidelity recording of the infamously erased Gaucho track "The Second Arrangement" was discovered by @Cimcie and has now been digitized, available for the world to hear

Thankfully my local Tower Records was still in business at the time.

I don’t think I’ve ever met a person who owned this album on CD and DIDN’T get it at Best Buy.

Time to dig out my old DVDs.

My Bloody Valentine @ Hammerstein Ballroom, 2018. Unbelievably loud. Earplugs mandatory. Great show.

[andyedelson @andyedelson]

@LibbyCudmore Good luck and best wishes for an easy and quick recovery! Hope they let you choose the music in the OR. Smooth sailing ahead!

[andyedelson @andyedelson]

@daddyrussborris Perfectly fine to play them. Technically, the image coating leads to more surface noise, so it’s not optimal for the highest sound quality, but on a good pressing you won’t notice much of a difference, if at all.

@LibbyCudmore @matthewqmartin Beautiful bass @matthewqmartin!
