Excellent inspiration for what to do if I'm in Seattle more this winter. I too have the pirate ship counterpart, iirc!

Lovely Built To Spill show at the Neptune tonight. Jim Roth joined to add an extra guitar for the 40-minute encore. The trio is great, but I miss those extra guitars, so it was awesome to have Jim back for a whole set

Was lucky enough to catch Setting when they came through SF in May '24, and have been thinking about that show (and listening to all their live releases on bandcamp) ever since
setting live at public records last april (fresh from their frow show session), billowing electroacoustic improv bliss with processed harmonium, conversational drums, hammered banjo, etc. a wonderful space, even if it doesn't quite capture the surround sound. setting.bandcamp.com/album/at-pub...

Got to see 'em yesterday at HSB and at the Camp Winnarainbow benefit on Wednesday! Coming to the scene later in life, it's been great to be able to see folks like Peter Rowan still around and playing. First time I caught DSO (at the Warfield), they had him front an acoustic first set; fantastic!

recently they've they've hidden reviews by default (tho not overall rating, sigh), which makes it slightly less terrible. i've been reluctantly using it for tracking the last couple of years, and do like it for that enough to put up with the ridiculousness

tuesdays just won't feel quite right for the next while without the frow show. in the meantime, looking forward to diving into those 10+ years of archives!
it's the *700th* episode of the frow show on @wfmu.bsky.social & the last in a regular slot for a bit! taking a (slight) break after being weekly for 10+ years, hopefully back doing fill-ins soon. (hit me up, DJs!) tune in for 3 hours of new music & jammy intrigues. wfmu.org/playlists/JJ...
