@BarstoolBigCat Favorite songs/jams?

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@NevilleHarris88 tbf twitter was never their most frequent form of social media anyway. they post most announcements, merch, videos and photos, etc. on instagram. they barely post on bluesky besides a random youtube link here and there and they don't post on fb at all

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@steely__drew Will be there!

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@NevilleHarris88 definitely bracket worthy. maybe even upper half

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

This essay sums up a lot of what I've been feeling about NYC in the last few years. I love this city and it will always be home, but the vibe shift is noticeable and not good.

[minh @MinhTran____]

wrote a bit about why i’m finding it hard to root for this knicks team, and how that mirrors my recent feelings about the city more broadly https://t.co/voCZOt2jJJ

@JeffDLowe @letterboxd how is 79 rating 3 stars? Wouldn't that be closer to a 60 rating?

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@NevilleHarris88 I'm very excited to be there, feels like a huge moment. The opportunities of collaboration across all of the acts performing give this potential for an all time night of music. Next milestone: solo Goose MSG (maybe summer or fall 2025?)

No matter what happens, it saddens me deeply that rape, felonies, trying to overthrow our democracy, misogyny, racism and transphobia are somehow not deal breaks for 10’s of millions of Americans.

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@NevilleHarris88 I'm in agreement. I know we as humans don't like change, but this one is not great. The symmetry before was a nice look and rick in the middle makes sense. Maybe there's something sonically that is better?

@AATGoosePod Do you feel like this tour was missing some high peaks in jams? If not, what were some of your favorite peaks

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

Haven't tweeted in awhile, but just want to mark that tonight is my 10th @goosetheband (plus 2 Orebolo). Thankful to this awesome band for providing me with some of the biggest joy in my life.

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@jvgregor Great work as always. One note: the tumble from 4/10/24 was a set closer not an opener

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

Would be quite awesome if @goosetheband would bring back Me & Julio Down by the Schoolyard for Forrest Hills, which is in the borough in which Paul Simon grew up. Goedde on the whistle for old time sake

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

@harrisonisreal2 And the defensive three second calls

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

LETS GO KNICKS. We keep OG and hartenstein and we are looking really dangerous.

[Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn]

BREAKING: The Brooklyn Nets have agreed in principle on a trade to send F Mikal Bridges to the New York Knicks for Bojan Bogdanovic, four unprotected first-round picks, a protected first-round pick via Bucks, an unprotected pick swap and a second-rounder, sources tell ESPN.

@FactoryPhishin @goosetheband Great video, man. The zoom on your phone is amazing. I can never get mine to focus like that. What jam was this?

[Eric Barber @ericbarber57]

What an awesome article about my favorite band from one of my favorite writers. Goose stock continues to rise rapidly!

[Charlie Warzel @cwarzel]

Got the opportunity to write about a band i love (@goosetheband) that is pushing the boundaries of a genre i love (jam bands). hopefully, this captures 1/100000th of the magic https://t.co/OHeAAdTZLR

Basketball felt like it was life or death back then, partly because of the presentation of the game. Now it’s Burger King and Draft Kings commercials being shown instead of this stuff.
