@zzyzx.bsky.social I remember asking one time if you planned the Morning Coffees in advance and you said no but you do have an idea of a future one, but were worried folks would all figure it out like a week beforehand. This isn’t it, is it?

Lost Horizons by Lemon Jelly has some pretty blissful moments

I remember the Down with Disease > What’s the Use? from this run feeling like a big deal at the time

Might have to give this a spin and see how it holds up… 16!? years later

and for some reason can’t stop wondering if this is the only time that there’s any sort of reference to religion existing in the Star Wars universe

I guess the Force could be kind of close, but I also don’t care enough to look into this much further, so kind of hoping I just forget about it

I’ve never been big into Star Wars, I’ve only ever seen the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy, so I could def be missing something, but last night I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about the scene where Darth Vader says “I’ve altered the deal, pray that I do not alter it again”

The more interesting part of the article I think is how much AI content is uploaded as fraud rather than for anything creative and Deezer’s software to detect AI uploads

Whereas the Apple tagging system seems more user-oriented to let ppl know what they’re listening to than combat fraudulent trax

Wife and I were talking about how we both (not always consciously) mentally break the workday into segments based on walks, meals, snacks and… we’re truly no different than any other animal

We’ve just got thumbs and can open the fridge or go outside without someone else’s help

Adding this to my queue!

And it’s been way too long since I’ve listened to that Aretha album you suggested 🙏

It’s a grey, gloomy morning in New England. Who’s got some 60s/70s soul/R&B to lift the spirits?

If you don’t already know Roy Ayers, ya gotta put this album on right away

I mean… Bobby’s shorts are guaranteed to give folks some strong feelings

Musicians wearing shorts on stage is one of the funnier things that I’ve seen people have some strong opinions on

Just checked their IG post and nothing abt either headlining; I’d assume alternating, maybe some fun encores with some combo of both bands out

Pesto with homegrown ingredients is the best!

Similarly, I never really cared much for tomato sauce until making it with homegrown tomatoes. Tastes better than anything from the store, and without a shitload of added sugar and other crap

As long as you’re not overly invested in the outcome vibes gardening is where it’s at!

On the other hand, I am a tiny bit nervous knowing that I probably shouldn’t have planted garlic in the same patch I had it in last year

Kind of wild how, with a few exceptions here and there, feels KGLW spent like 25+ albums actively avoiding making anything with an overly sentimental feel, then dropped an album that could be summed up as “Fuck, I don’t wanna miss my kids growing up cuz I’m on tour all the time”

We got freezing rain/sleet last night, and temps today are supposed to get up to the 50s, so it was predictably foggy this morning

What I wasn’t expected is the ice on tree branches melting quick enough that when you go outside it sounds like it’s raining/sleeting

“It’s the GOP’s fault that I relied on my infomercial fame and never told voters my actual name that would appear on the ballot”

Also, imagine this being the way that you let folks know that you don’t totally get where the term ‘RINO’ comes from

Tube floating inside a 5 gallon water jug

Tube floating inside a 5 gallon water jug

So the spout for the pump fell off and into the water jug and trying various tongs, chopsticks, etc is feeling like a real life Mario Party mini-game, with all the same frustration, only I can’t use the excuse of “I think my controller’s messed up”

The Gizzathon continues and the part of The Dripping Tap from like 5:30 - 6:00 is reminding me of the first time I heard this song and was completely blown away, then listened to it at least 3-4x a day for like two weeks

When two of your favorite bands announce a joint tour that stops at one of your regular venues!!!

and I was worried moe. might’ve been keeping northeast touring a bit lighter this year with moe.down coming back

And this week they’re now putting down new carpeting

Tbf, this is less distracting than the shop vac when they were taking out the old carpeted areas, and I’m planning on leaving early anyway since we’re supposed to be getting a ‘wintery mix’ this afternoon

Always funny to look up the value of a collectible you have no intent on ever selling

Just checked for the first time in a few years and the Pollock for we have in the living room for Phish’s 2013 Hartford show are listed around $1500 on ebay

“I am every one and every zero” is absolutely a top-ten KGLW lyric

…and then Mind Fuzz comes on and I’m like “This might be my fave Gizz album,” …then Nonagon comes on and I’m like “This might be my fave Gizz album,” …and then FMB comes on and I’m like “This might be my fave Gizz album,” …then Polygonadwanaland comes on and I’m like “This might be my fave Gizz al-“

The moment in God is Calling Me Back Home when the full band comes rumbling in is what I assume it feels like when your spirit leaves your body and, for the first time, you truly see the full spectrum of colors as you go bouncing around the cosmic pinball machine

Also, Sea of Trees is still 100% my favorite pre-FAFYL Gizz song

Nearly every time I listen to Float Along - Fill Your Lungs, at least once I have the thought “This might be my favorite Gizz album”

Which would be much more notable if the same thing didn’t also happen with most of their albums
