As a teenager, a "hipster" was anyone old enough to drink a Rolling Rock at Maxwells

@zppaulzz I feel like Kurt's lyrics try to be dumb but land as deep, which is much better than the reverse...

[Trummors @Trummors]

Listened to the new Kevin Morby and Kurt Vile LPs today. Would give a slight edge to the latter, but didn't really connect with either. Probably a me problem.

[Trummors @Trummors]

I keep thinking about the episode of Seinfeld in which Kramer was referred to as a "hipster doofus"

Front Range Colorado show 6/20

[non-insane automaton @steelydante]

sometimes i go back and think wow the Jesus and Mary Chain are one of the coolest bands ever

People who still make fun of Yoko Ono in the Year of Our Lord 2026 need to go to bad music take jail

@bradford_skow It would probably frame every text as a tension between heroic liberal individualism and evil state planning

Bob himself said it best in Don't Look Back: "I'm just as good a singer as Caruso. Have you heard me sing? I hit all the notes"

[Dilan Esper @dilanesper]

Bob Dylan, who turns 85 today, is a fine lyricist, put out a few very decent records, and is one of the worst singers ever to hit the top 5.

The Byrds got to number 1 with Mr. Tambourine Man (a good song!) because he couldn't sing and they could.

[Trummors @Trummors]

@RoughTrade Leonard Cohen singing "So Long, Marianne" at the Brighton Center, 2013. Even the teleprompter he was squinting at couldn't diminish the majesty of that performance.

[Trummors @Trummors]

@CHTCTR Yeah it's dumb. I was just being annoying. But it touched a nerve, which I think is interesting.

[Trummors @Trummors]

Got dunked on on Bluesky for an admittedly questionable take about bouncy houses. Exciting!

[Trummors @Trummors]

@CHTCTR Yep those things. I said they were bourgeois and got pummeled!

[Trummors @Trummors]

@bob_bannister The response was tremendous. I was a main character! They called me unhinged!

[Trummors @Trummors]

@n_hold @melnickjeffrey1 I heard it pronounced that way by David J, a British person; maybe it's okay to say the s as an American

[Trummors @Trummors]

@pensandpoison why not both?

[Trummors @Trummors]

New installment of Oceanfront Property is up on NQRA Radio. This month's episode focuses on the Byrds' extended family tree, with an excursion up to Bakersfield to check in on Gary Paxton's outsider country and western sounds...tune in here: https://t.co/hCWuIGt6Kj

@AlfredEjewman @suzyputrid as one should

[Trummors @Trummors]

@bob_bannister @CHTCTR Saw JJW at BB KIng's in NYC, around 2009, New Riders at Knitting Factory around the same time. JJW was ok, New Riders kicked ass

[Trummors @Trummors]
