The listener is constantly making predictions; actual infinitesimal predictions as to whether the next event will be a repetition of something, or something different. ... As nearly as we can tell ... the listener must come out right about 50% of the time—if he is too successful in predicting, he will be bored; if he is too unsuccessful, he will give up and call the music "disorganized". --- Richmond Browne, quoted in Improvising Jazz by Jerry Coker, Prentice-Hall (1964), pg. 15

It's very similar to a quote from Richmond Browne in Jerry Coker's Improvising Jazz.
RIP, Revik Dillon from Jack Killed Jill. An absolute punk rock powerhouse.
The novel it's loosely based on is so much better. It focuses on the pathos of ecological destruction without the sensational twist. I feel like it's ripe for a more faithful modern adaptation.

Cut-Rate Druggist's merch game is next-level. Their Bandcamp page doesn't do it justice, you have to catch them live and check out their table. They absolutely fuckin' rock too.

The film "The Act of Killing" documents this Indonesian genocide.

RIP. We love you too, Ozzy.
The early Bob Seger System stuff is so bad-ass. Straight-up Detroit garage rock.

It's Lloyd Green on the steel. A legend. Check out his work with Johnny Paycheck on Little Darlin' Records (e.g. The Lovin' Machine) and with Charlie Pride on the Live at Panther Hall recording. So good.
Awesome new music from fellow Oaklanders Loud Graves, with a new album on the way.
And Hey! We're playing with them tomorrow night at Eli's Mile High Club w/ the mighty DFL!

This is why we’re musicians. We hope to be able to deliver someday/somehow on something like this.

Say hello to "House Flaming" for me, I love that song.
Punk rock show flyer. DFL, Loud Graves, and Last Thread at Eli's Mile High Club, Oakland CA. June 7, 2025.

So I guess I missed Lemmy’s bday, but there’s never a bad time.
I think this is Motörhead at there most punk rock.

You’re the strongest chain,
You’re not just some reflection,
So never hide AGAIN!
Such a sweet song. Dio stands out to me for his positivity. In a genre that made so much of darkness, he often couched his in an essential message of love and self-actualization.
What's that? It's Bandcamp Friday?

This is a sensible policy proposal.
Again, just think of all of the crypto ransomware proceeds being furiously shoveled in to fuel this hopeless dumpster fire.
Burn, motherfuckers!

I mean, why do you think he wants Greenland and Canada so bad?

Everything they're doing is done to hurt/subjugate us; and enrich/empower themselves.
This is what a slide to civil war looks like.
Is there a word for this? And by "this", I mean the stubbornly performative insistence on casting their deep, obvious, willful contempt for decency as some kind of trite hypocrisy?
They've been telling us that we don't matter, and now they're going to show us good and hard.
Just think of all the crypto crime funds being laundered, pouring in to help prop up Tesla stock too.

More bad news for people named James Watt who aren't facist assholes.

Take away the ballot, all that’s left is the bullet.
Just sayin’
I mean, by manifestly demonstrating their utter incompetence, they're essentially inviting every US adversary to take their shot.
They're going to get tested for real in a matter of time, they'll fail, and who knows how many will die.
Oakland, mi amor.
