Sometimes when work is rough, I just wanna tell my boss "my dumb band just got a decent review on a blog that probably 19 people read, so maybe watch your tone with me."

[tom @tmcg1981]

How are you taking a murderers side in all of this?

[tom @tmcg1981]

I'm watching a company whose wares i often purchase struggle to sell something that two years ago they would have sold out of in less than 24 hours. Perhaps raising prices on literally everything on your website was a bad idea.

When this record came out, I stopped listening to metal for a while because NOTHING was ever going to be as good as this. Game changing, life changing.

AT THE GATES released the melodeath masterpiece 'Slaughter of the Soul' 30 years ago today.⁠

TOMAS LINDBERG RIP.

Holy shit @donetodeath brought up Keith Welsh. It Hurts to Breathe is an all time track.

If I type my email address in and accidentally put in ".con" that should count.

How's working for half my normal rate on my day off going? Great. Today, I've been told by a supervisor that Hitler had some good points and that I don't get to take a break today even though everyone else does.

You don't realize how little people pay attention to you until you point out something about yourself that you have demonstrated a hundred times and have explained another hundred times and they say "i never noticed that."

Netflix will help you finish spelling the name of the movie you’re looking for, and then tell you they don’t have it

Band etiquette... if your band has played more than 5 shows with another band, at least be able recognize the people in the other band.

[tom @tmcg1981]

Imagine getting to use PTO for a vacation instead of doctors appointments or shitty shows with your shitty bands?

Looking good is the best revenge.

I will always be happy for my friends success, but I would occasionally like to not fail and have friends to share that with.

[tom @tmcg1981]

Everything is terrible all the time and I'm glad people are paying attention and taking action. That said, if I have to listen to one more drunk who can't function in any kind of society explain geopolitics to me, I'm gonna start swinging.

[tom @tmcg1981]

Ah yes, New York. A city that famously never had a substantial immigrant population.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

40 percent of New York City's population is foreign born. Not just second and third generation immigrants. Foreign born. Almost half the city wasn't born in this country. NYC isn't an American city anymore by any reasonable definition of the term. It's a tragedy and a disgrace.

People who don't work in live events don't understand how fast the world moves. That huge job? That shit was yesterday. We'll see you on the next one.

[tom @tmcg1981]

@JustinBrannan I recorded a while back and when I listened back, my tone was McKagan-esque and I dont think I've ever been more pleased about a bass tone in my life.
