Thank you Marla, for taking such great care of John, especially these last few years. I send my deepest condolences to you and all your family at this difficult time.

Rest in peace, dear John. You can be assured your monumental legacy will live on forever.

He was the inspiration for teaching myself blues guitar and learning how to sing these songs we loved so much. He made it cool and all right.

Not only was he a virtuoso on guitar, harp, singing and choosing songs, to me it felt like he was totally possessed by the blues.

I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of my friend and inspiration, John Hammond, Jr. From the first time I heard him on the first blues album I bought, Blues at Newport ‘63 on Vanguard Records, I was just knocked out and have felt that way about him ever since.

Thinking of my friend and collaborator John Perry Barlow today, whose words still carry us. Happy birthday, pal.

“An outpouring of emotion of what is endured by the creative artist under totalitarianism” A compelling listen.

Happy Birthday Shostakovich. Tea for Two - Fantastic! You won the bet.

Today is one of the most hot and humid days in Florida’s recent history.

Heat indices have soared into the 120s across parts of the state, including Tampa, which recorded a heat index of 120°F at 2:35 PM.

Car interiors can reach lethal temperatures within minutes, and heat stroke is a serious risk with prolonged exposure to this extreme heat.

This is exceptional heat and humidity, even for a state accustomed to it.

A lot of bosses these days. Who’s Pete, happy bday!

[Bob Dylan @bobdylan]

Happy birthday Pete. Who’s the new boss? Is he like the old boss? Have you met him yet? Say hello to Roger.

Only one word for this: FUBAR.

If House Republicans won’t hold a hearing on how this happened IMMEDIATELY, I’ll do it my damn self.

Have not seen a wildfire setup like this for Central Texas in many years.

Folks, this is as bad as it gets tomorrow. Howling winds, extreme drought, dormant fuels following extreme cold in late February... Be extremely vigilant and mindful of anything that could spark a fire

A full third of federal jobs are staffed by retired military - in a lot of ways, the federal government serves as a jobs program for veterans due to its congressionally-mandated hiring preferences for vets. There are going to be tens of thousands of jobless vets due to these cuts

Major Storm to Impact Southern California

As of Wednesday, February 12, 2025, at 6:50 PM PDT, the latest infrared satellite imagery confirms that the incoming storm system is fully developed and on track to deliver severe weather across Northern and Central California tonight into early Thursday afternoon. The system is intensifying rapidly, with a powerful surface cold front expected to sweep through San Luis Obispo to San Diego counties, bringing damaging winds, torrential rainfall, and the potential for severe thunderstorms.

Key Storm Impacts: "Big Thursday" – A Major Weather Event

• Extreme Rainfall Rates – 0.50 to 1.5 inches per hour, increasing the risk of urban flooding, flash floods, and mudslides, particularly in burn scar areas of Los Angeles County.

• Damaging Winds – Southerly gusts of 45-65 mph, capable of toppling trees, damaging weak structures, and causing widespread power outages.

• Severe Thunderstorm & Weak Tornado Potential – The latest HRRR model data (18Z, 0Z) indicates the presence of a squall line, increasing the risk of isolated severe thunderstorms and weak tornadoes between 12 PM and 10 PM Thursday.

• Scattered to Widespread power Outages – Areas at risk include the San Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita Valley, Ventura County, and portions of Los Angeles County, where infrastructure could be severely impacted.

• Urban Flooding Concerns – Locations such as Downtown Los Angeles, Pasadena, Altadena, and Pacific Palisades will experience rapid runoff and potential roadway flooding, creating hazardous travel conditions.

The Seriousness of the Situation

This storm is shaping up to be one of the most intense weather events of the season, posing a significant threat to life and property. Residents in Los Angeles County and surrounding areas must prepare for prolonged heavy rainfall, high winds, possible power outages, and dangerous road conditions.

Authorities urge residents to stay indoors, avoid unnecessary travel, and prepare emergency supplies. Those in flood-prone and burn scar areas should be especially vigilant for potential debris flows and flash flooding.

This is a rapidly evolving situation and further updates in the next 24 to 30 hours.

Feeling deeply moved for the support from old friends and new at the @MusiCares Persons of the Year Gala and throughout #GRAMMY week.

Huge thanks to my bandmates in @DeadandCompany and all the incredible artists who made the week so special.
