Shower Food Review 71: Whole Peking Duck - I took some time off to just relax. Each day I try to improve myself but I realized if you keep pushing the envelope one day it's going to break. Anyways this was one of the most decadent meals I've ever eaten in the shower. 10/10

The US has proposed rate increases that would make touring for intl artists more expensive. This would affect a huge part of our roster in one of the worst ways possible.

It takes *very* little for a person to recognize that there are *worlds* of music they don’t know and can dive into. When year end lists all champion the same albums, writers are doing everyone a disservice & it’s extremely discouraging. We should be checking ourselves more tbh!!

@bostonluci @s_s0urcandy @jackantonoff Yes charging a flat fee only if Artist needs a Venue Merch seller to help should be the extent of it. LN Merch cuts can take up to 25% of sales in some rooms, pretty big chunk for nothing.

BREAKING: Ticketmaster is under investigation by the Justice Department for abusing its monopoly power over the live music industry, per The New York Times.

@emma_toney More and more in our lives is being locked behind ambiguous systems that are unchecked and exist for no discernible reason other than $$$ and control

[Zach Silva @zwsilva]

@emma_toney They don't care about us

[Zach Silva @zwsilva]

@topshelfrecords Y'all rule

[Joshua Minsoo Kim @misterminsoo]

it’s important to listen to music in languages you don’t understand. hearing words without any associated semantic meaning allows for appreciation of language on a purely rhythmic and sonic level. and then when you *do* learn the lyrics, you approach them with humility and care.

@gleng1 @ericrennerbrown Artists do not see any cut at all from the TM fees, that's money outside of the Gross that is used to calculate the deals. Trust me, that's a battle ongoing.

I’m begging you: do not add to the touring discourse with something as heinously naive as “buy merch and wear masks!” Know that it’s much more complicated than that. I want to talk about the issues together and with nuance. Not a great prompt for Twitter but here’s a start.

@icantcycle we love sobs

@emma_toney It's about time 🙏

I simply cannot care about a relationship between two people I do not know. my beloved dog has grown more anxious with the changing season & has begun to hide my socks with increasing frequency. my favorite baker has stopped selling cinnamon rolls. I've got honest to god PROBLEMS
