Ok I’m just realizing all the crappy things that happened for me were on the same day:
1: southwest charged me $245 to check my guitar
2. My friend who was watching my car called to tell me it was dead
3. Broke my guitar
4. Sprained my ankle
11/23 is officially cursed

My guitar took revenge on me and sprained my ankle while I was loading it out 🫠
I think it’s officially time to retire my precious guitar I just broke another little piece off it 😭 but 10 years of touring that’s pretty good

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

this is so fucking cruel
Wisconsin Republicans are introducing a bill that mandates women use ‘catch kits’ when they have a miscarriage or abortion at home—forcing them to bag up their pregnancy tissue and bring it to the doctor as medical waste.

The American Alliance of Museums put out its annual industry snapshot and it's not great. Trump's targeting of museum programming had downstream effects and put a "chill on corporate philanthropy." n.pr/43lIZa7
Museums had a rough 2025: Report shows lower attendance, lost grants, less money

100% this and also those shows can be so fun cause the people that did come WANT to be there. we once had a great show in Nashville for 6 people
Some advice from your pals in Perennial:
If a show is lightly attended, play even harder. Go nuts; give those folks your very best
Because:
A) You should reward the folks that *did* show up
B) every cool band in history has a story about how they tore the roof off a show with 4 people in the crowd
