    I can't count how many bands I've missed simply because I refuse to buy anything from those assholes.

    I'm guessing ACL Live switched to them as part of the Ryman team buying them? Never had issues when they were using TicketFly. In addition to their general shittiness, the Ticketmaster site is effing horrible. I thought I had secured seats in the Mezz, but somehow I wound up with GA in the Mezz. These were a birthday present for my Mom, and dad won't be able to stand through the show. Now trying to cancel the order.

    The daily shitshow that is the United States of America has me returning to my Kathleen Hanna playlist more frequently than ever for cathartic listening.

    Ugh, what did the cheeto do this time? Do I really want to know? Maybe ignorance is bliss.

    Just your daily dose of brazen corruption. I kind of feel we are well past the part in this mess where folks in other countries would be out in the streets for mass protests. But, you know, The Masked Singer is really heating up. Soooo......

    Interview is in the books. Went well. We'll see how things go. Question for those recent job seekers in next post.

    You know what I hate about the interview process? I really hate that moment where things seem to be going well enough that you unconsciously start answering (and asking) questions in a way that kind of assumes you are getting the job. And then you become aware that you are doing it, and it gets in your head. That line between confidence and over-confidence can become razor thin really effin' quick.

    The other part of the problem is elderly voters. They generally vote stupid, so the good folks need to come out in force.

    @tvham I sort of refuse to go to the Austin 360 venue, just because it is too damn far away for me. Not sure if I am going to go to the Friday or Saturday show in Austin. He was great at Bass Concert Hall two years ago.

    @Twentytwo I saw him at Red Rocks two years ago - it was such an amazing show!

    @tvham My brother in law lives In Centennial, so I got a place to stay, that's half the battle right there. I've always wanted to see either Isbell or The National there.

    I feel like Renée Zellweger's Texas drawl has gotten stronger as award season has rolled along.

    Yeah, my Texas accent is not real strong at all. People from other parts of the country would probably pick up bits of it here and there, but, growing up in Houston and then living in Austin all these years, any edges that I picked up around my relatives in small town Texas have long been buffed out.

    Seeing Jamie Lin Wilson tonight at The Cactus Cafe. It was part of my gift to my sister for her birthday. Don't tell her, but, I basically used her birthday as a way to justify going to a show despite the uncertainty of my job situation.

    Watching this Facebook live stream of Shakey Graves' show from the Fox Theatre in Boulder, CO. Esme Patterson just joined him for 'Dearly Departed' and a nice cover of 'Real Love'. She always seems so happy when she sings.

    They did the two other songs that she sang on from "And The War Came". Their voices play well together. I haven't really checked out any of her other work, but anytime I see a clip of her singing these songs with Shakey Graves she always seems to be enjoying herself so much. Nice to see.

    Been binging pretty hard on The Kinks' "Lola" album for the last few weeks. Certainly not the first time I've ever listened to it, so I'm not sure why it is hitting the spot right now.

    Bought a ticket to the Wolf Parade/Land of Talk show tonight at the Mohawk last year before I found out I would be losing my job. Really torn on whether or not I'm going to actually go.

    The audience participation and reaction shots for this Billie Eilish episode of Austin City Limits are something else.

    Never let it be said that it can never happen here. Amazing that these GOP Senators put their desire for re-election that far above the will of the people and the good of the country in general. You would think that there were no other jobs out there for these people. I get it, they make tons of money & clearly don't have to do anything for it. Still...we're all about to pay a very hefty price for their decision.
    Aron
    Totally forgot that I ordered that I Feel For You (Acoustic Demo) 7" from the Prince store. Man, a lot has happened since then.

    Call it cosmic timing, or just plain smart forethought and planning, but the Billie Eilish episode of Austin City Limits is set to air this coming Saturday. Check your local PBS station schedule for airtimes.
