Saw AJR with my daughter last night, she absolutely loved it and I was thoroughly entertained as well.  Quite a production for a band that I would have never thought could fill LCA.  

Every AJR song I've heard is super catchy. I wish my daughter would have wanted to go to that show...

I just don't know why every time Kendrick Lamar and Drake fart in each other's direction it has to be breaking news on every ****ing music site.    Who ****ing cares?    Ooooh,  two guys don't like each other.     That isn't interesting.

I thought this died off weeks ago? Is it actually still going?

The only music news that matters is that there's a new Eminem album this Friday.

[Hongbit]

Eminem will have a battle on his hands for that Billboard top spot as the 16th Phish studio album comes out on Friday🫢.  

There’s a good chance this one may go Silver or Gold.

speaking of the Old 97's, as we were in this thread recently, today my manager used the word "jagged" in a meeting, and I suddenly kind of remembered that the Old 97's might have a song called that, so I went hunting and found it. I'd actually completely forgotten about it despite it being totally ass-beating, so it blew my mind to hear it again.

We’ll be seeing St. Paul & The Broken Bones Saturday night…finally. 

[Biff Mayhem]

Slash released a blues/r&b album and collaborated with some big names. Top to bottom it’s phenomenal. This is from someone who can take or leave Slash. 

Killing Floor is the biggest surprise.

Solid first impression of Jack White's new album.  Neat reading how he released it as well.

The kids are in town for a funeral
So pack the car and dry your eyes
I know they got plenty of young blood left in 'em
And plenty nights under pink skies
You taught 'em to enjoy

So clean the house, clear the drawers
Mop the floors, stand tall
Like no one's ever been here
Before or at all
And don't you mention all the inches
That are scraped on the doorframe
We all know you tiptoed
Up to 4'1" back in '08

If you could see 'em now, you'd be proud
But you'd think they's yuppies
Your funeral was beautiful
I bet God heard you comin'

The kids are in town for a funeral
And the grass all smells the same
As the day you broke your arm swingin'
On that kid out on the river
You bailed him out, never said a thing
About Jesus or the way he's livin'

If you could see 'em now, you'd be proud
But you'd think they's yuppies
Your funeral was beautiful
I bet God heard you comin'

If you could see 'em now, you'd be proud
But you'd think they's yuppies
Your funeral was beautiful
I bet God heard you comin'

The kids are in town for a funeral
So pack the car and dry your eyes
I know they got plenty young blood left in 'em
And plenty nights under pink skies
You taught 'em to enjoy

There's a song called Assassination on it?      I'm sure he'll get torn apart over that one, even if it was pressed 6 weeks ago.      Will he be forced to start a new band with Kyle?

I plan on listening tonight after HOTD again, i'll try and focus on it.  (Weird thing, for most music I really need to pay attention to hear the lyrics, otherwise I just catch portions of it.  Sort of like trying to carry on a conversation at a bar where there is a live band playing, I hear just bits and pieces.) There are no song names, not sure if they have released those yet.

I'm listening to the worst goddamn earworm I can imagine at the moment: "Sweet Sally", Ted Nugent, off Cat Scratch Fever. ARRRGH! God, please, either kill me or make it stop!

I saw Nugent on the Cat Scratch Fever tour in 1977 as I recall.  Never have been a Nugent fan. I think there was a good instrumental on that album, Homebound? Homeward Bound? Too lazy to look it up…

They were really good. The lead singer is an act by himself.

Late last night the record distributor dropped track # 3 "That's How I'm Feelin'" for radio, which leads me to believe that the album will end up getting released.

Detroit rock radio is sad and pathetic.    Never "in the moment", are they?

Most all commercial rock radio is sad and pathetic. I can't remember the last time I listened to a station owned by one of the "major" corporations.

Awesome.  I may have to go back and listen if that is possible.    

If I had to pick 4 to highlight it would be:

Lonely Trip

Hey Stranger

A Wave of Hope

Life Saving Gun

Played two of those............... A Wave Of Hope and Life Saving Gun.    Also played Human Nature and closed with the slower song Mercy.   I wanted to play Oblivion there, but needed something shorter.
