Guitar setup experts/luthiers: on my 12 string acoustic, the high octave strings sit closer to the fretboard than the bass strings. They should be even, right? Does the nut need to be re-slotted or replaced?

Gene Vincent's self-titled LP on Kama Sutra is very, very good. Love the subgenre of original rock 'n' rollers going cosmic country (Bob Darin's Commitment comes to mind too)

Popular Freudianism is officially out of fashion. For example, I haven't heard anyone use the term anal retentive (or its shorthand, anal) in recent memory. Used to hear that tossed around all the time. Good riddance, I guess?

Sam Blasucci (Mapache) is playing Tumbleroot in Santa Fe tonight. Promotion has been scant to non-existent. Can't make it myself, sadly, but I would recommend checking it out.

Bought a Spin-Clean Machine to clean some 45s. It's simple and works well, but not sure why a plastic bin with some brushes and manual rollers costs $70

I love the snare drum sound on Jimmy Reed's records. Who knew a drum could sound so lazy?

Had a dream that I met Bob Dylan, and all he wanted to talk about was different ways to prank Jonathan Wilson
