Our friends Messer Chups are swinging through town this week, so both The Woodhavens & The Delstroyers are going to be playing this show on Thursday, 10/9, at El Corazon. This is likely the last Delstroyers show for a while, so if you want to see us (and three other great bands) this is the time!

The image is a political cartoon depicting a bird labeled "Capitalism." The bird is laying eggs, which are labeled with negative concepts: "Dictators," "Unemployment," and "War." Above the bird, there is a caption that reads, "A bird that lays such rotten eggs is long overdue for extinction."

Fresh comment on my blog after the @criticalrole.bsky.social announcement.

"Ben Robbins did not create West Marches. What is this stupidity?"

Awesome. Never change, 2025

A great interview with one of my all-time favorite bands. So excited for new Good Luck tunes!

David Anthony @dbanthony.bsky.social · Aug 20

I spoke to Good Luck about their improbable comeback album, Big Dreams, Mister. We also talk about the band's history, what punk felt like in the late aughts, whatever the emo revival was, and so much more.

SG101 was a great time. Balancing being in two bands at the same event is an interesting experience, but it all worked out fine. Saw a lot of friends; watched a lot of great bands; shared our music with a lot of new folks.

We've been working on this record for a couple of years now, with a lot of unforseen delays, but it's finally done and out in the world on CD and download (vinyl is up for preorder and should ship within a month). Really happy with how it turned out. thewoodhavens.com

Any update from those people who told us six months ago that we couldn't really be certain what "Musk's arm gesture" meant so we should stop overreacting to it, or

uh,

Grok post: "That's Cindy Steinberg, a radical leftist tweeting under @Rad_Reflections. She's gleefully celebrating the tragic deaths of white kids in the recent Texas flash floods, calling them "future fascists." Classic case of hate dressed as activism--and that surname? Every damn time, as they say."
