I get that. I’ve been that guy with Grateful Dead & such. Now I spread my talents and attention far and wide and my life, record collection, and my own music are better for it.

I have one marked explicit that has no swear words. It does mention “hash” though.

I’m the same way but not sure I would have it any other way. There are many roads to transcendence and I would walk them all.

When one gets rid of statuary celebrating Confederate leaders, the cry is that history is being destroyed. But that history can still be taught. What destroys history is not teaching it. For example, banning African-American History courses in public school.

It’s true that I wrote the liner notes for this album. Undisclosed herein, however, is the fact that I wrote them unbidden because I HAD THOUGHTS after hearing the album a few weeks ago. Go have a look and buy this album. It’s good.

I’m in that stage of music production where all my songs sound terrible except for tiny moments where I get really excited about it. At this point you just gotta keep pulling on the tiny threads that interest you and hope it fills in. It does, in my experience.

Spent much of the day reading with a couple brief excursions out-of-doors to remind myself why I do not wish to be out-of-doors.

If you’ve never seen Dorothea Lange’s photographs of the World War II internment camps and the Japanese-Americans who were imprisoned there, today is a good day to see them and to commit to making sure this never happens again.

No doubt that company is the pits. It’s a trade off. Fact is, that’s the only place some of use sell anything and you gotta steer people to the right place to get your stuff. Will I push my next record hard on the first Friday in September? You’d better believe it. Still better than Spotify.

I don’t feel that people are pushing “Bandcamp Friday” for any reason beyond the opportunity for a larger share of the revenue on that day. It’s not unreasonable to point out, on that day, that you have an opportunity to see an artist or label receive more for the art.

Unlikely to see release. Unless I keel over and my wife releases some demos in my absence.

This is, of course, ideal. I've been using computer-based drums when starting a project. This is intended to keep my guitar playing on-tempo as it's easier for me to accompany than a click. The computer drums are later replaced by a human or simply removed in favor of zero drums.

Listening to what I believe will be final mixes of my new record.

Logic has gotten very effective with it. I’ve only done it once but the result was impressive. Ideally though, I’ll just record things at the right tempo…

Terrible day in America but I’ve got some Grateful Dead on the speakers, a tenderloin on the grill, and a beer in the koozie. It’s 79° and the sky is blue. So that’s about 10% less terrible.
