Thanks, to you both!
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.
'Shells'
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks, Msbelle! I am poor in the ways of laptop typing, though.
And I hope you find something you enjoy, Lee.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I'm very fond of the Jose Gonzales EPs, and his full-length "Veneer" that I recently acquired.

They've recenly acquired the In The Fishtank series, too, of which the Low/Dirty Three combo is excellent and the Isis/Aerogramme is lovely and heavy.
You should get the Tortoise/Ex one if you haven't already, Corwood.
Decemberists were adorable in Boston as well. They played the Orpheum, a theater that holds maybe... err... 1500(?), but they made it feel much more intimate.

Oh yeah -- any harmonica players in the house? You'll never have to fumble for the right one ever again: [link]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Because everyone knows there hasn't been enough atonal classical music written for the harmonica.

History's Mysteries did a very cool piece on Ben Franklin's armonica -- that's the hummy instrument that uses moistened glass bells. In a certain sense, the predecessor to the theremin and the synthesizer....

It's in my queue for this month. I do love Tortoise so, and I appreciate The Ex, too.

Except for the part where the theremin and synth won't kill you from repeated playing...
(the glass in the glass armonica, that you touched directly, was usually leaded)

Back in the old days, when 'suffering for your art' wasn't a euphemism....
