Married, mother of boys. What brings me joy

• thrift stores • wildlife • plants • books • 90's alternative • teetotal

That moment when your 5 year old asks you if your 1 year old can go into the washing machine, and you really hope he isn't already in there.

MTV’s Unplugged series was a real test for the musicians of that era.

Sure, you sound huge wired up to stacks of amps with distortion and effects stacked on top of each other.

But can you do it in a small room, up close to the audience, without all the gear to hide behind?

Stripped naked of the electricity.

Just the songs, the voices, and whatever you could pull out of an acoustic guitar and bongos.

The Stone Temple Pilots walked into that room in 1993 and passed the test.

Scott Weiland sat in a rocking chair like he owned the place.

No theatrics, no wall of sound to lean on.

Just the band and the material.

“Plush,” “Creep,” “Wicked Garden,” and the first public airing of “Big Empty.”

It held up. The songs didn’t need the volume to work.

That was the point of the whole series.

Some bands just got quieter.

The ones that mattered found a different kind of power when everything else was taken away.

“Plush”

It was called a computer room, and we used to leave the internet there.

I have found it comforting, that I am not so important.

Lil Wayne was so busy in his prime that he filmed a music video on the way to another one😭🔥

The right song can change the entire vibe:

The biggest lesson I’ve learned as an adult is to never smile at an ugly stripper.

When I don’t play music while showering, I end up humming the theme songs from Super Mario and Dawson’s Creek over and over.

[gella @gellaray]

@chrisdowning Not me humming them to see if they sound similar.

Cohen: Travis Kelce came to see your San Diego show. It looked like it was his bachelor party when he came to see you, did you interact with him at all that night?

Chappelle: Well, of course I did. I was shocked, I had never seen anything like that. A whoreless bachelor party. Whatever makes you happy, Travis. I heard he was getting married at Madison Square Garden. You would think I could have got an invite, but I didn't. I didn't make the 15,000 closest friends
