@hearinladotcom@LinaLecaro@setlistfm Omfg, how did I miss this? Mccartney could fill a venue ten times the size of the Fonda. I had plans both nights but would have changed them. Not the longest set list, but a good one:

amazing profile by @LinaLecaro of @flea333 and his astonishingly beautiful new album. W/photos at the Silverlake Conservatory of Music —the school he co-founded that provides free lessons to the next gen. of LA musicians—it is a double dose of sunshine: https://t.co/1WtxVrtDFU

So happy to see @jessicagelt named Arts Editor at @latimes! She's been in the trenches covering LA culture for as long as I have! Grateful to write this story about the FAB new gallery inside the historic Fine Arts Building in DTLA...
Highland Park's Finneas calls out the hypocrisy of the likes of @VP, @Sec_Noem, and @USAttyEssayli regarding the murder of Alex Pretti:
Every argument I’ve seen for why Alex Pretti’s death was "justified" yesterday is like, "Well he had a gun."
Shut the fuck up. You’ve spent 30 years straight telling us that children have to die so that we’re allowed to legally carry weapons everywhere in the United States.
This guy was being beaten to a pulp on the ground, he didn’t draw his weapon. He had a weapon on him, legally. And they shot the fuck out of him.
No new funding.
Kristi Noem must RESIGN.
Greg Bovino must be FIRED.
Suspend the LAWLESS mass deportation raids nationwide NOW — ICE is no longer just deporting dangerous criminals.
Send the border patrol back to the border.
End the militarization of ICE + the sick racial profiling.
End the perverse cash incentives that are bounties to perpetrate Trump’s cruel agenda.
Require thorough, real background checks for everyone, and 2+ years of training before even setting foot in the field.
INVESTIGATE and PROSECUTE every single federal agent who is breaking the law.
