If you’re in NYC BKLYN, folks, I highly recommend getting out to see Orcutt Shelley Miller at Union Pool tonight.

Ah, so the ”ballroom” is to be built atop the secure emergency bunker.

Democracy dies in dark mode.

@washingtonpost.com “forgetting“ that Smith was investigating a coup d’etat against the United States, its people, and its Constitution … because the coup has succeeded, the criminals who planned it are in power, and the Post’s billionaire owner is seeking their favor.

Kneejerk, from Vancouver. Classic Piano combo plus electric shred. Dissonant and wild. A great pairing with Orcutt Shelley Miller.

Bill Orcutt, Steve Shelley, and Ethan Miller bringin’ it in hot to a rapt crowd last night at the Rickshaw in Vancouver BC. A Jazz Infidels show with electro jazz combo Knee Jerk opening. Felt like 2025 in America.

“Sun Green” in Burnaby, BC, Saturday. Neil Young’s Love Earth show is fiery, political, and, likely to Young’s dismay, as relevant as ever.
