This band sounds GREAT. SK being too chill but it’s ok because Tom Guarna is a monster guitarist.

So I’m just gonna play the new Tapers Choice a few more times. It is really really good although I wish there were some more new songs

I’ve been staying away from the new remaster of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway because if I jam it then I’m gonna have to get all 5 copies I have out and compare them and download others and obsess over every detail and I have a job and family to think about

60 years ago today, john coltrane recorded "om" in seattle while (according to several biographers) tripping on LSD. the next night, he performed "a love supreme" in its entirety for one of the only known times. idk seems significant?

I don’t hear anything particularly groundbreaking or original about the Geese but one of them apparently wears a moe. shirt on stage so they’re ok in my book.

Unsurprising. That account gives “I got into music last year” vibes

Not so much about the drive for me but the utter lack of vibes at the Bowl

The only redemption would be a Kimock sit-in in PA

Tapers Choice skipping Upstate NY/New England on tour tells me they aren’t quite the advanced students of jambandery they would like us to believe. #BKBowlSux
