What’s the first thing you think of when you see Moby?

@GenTXer2 @jbbricker The Duane Allman Brothers Band. The amazing recording done by the one and only Tom Dowd. He put Duane and Clapton together for the Layla recording. Tom set up the mikes, recorded this and cut the album. liveforlivemusic.com/features/allma…

My morning album with ☕️ The Allman Bros Band: At Fillmore East (1971) Another album where I'll need an extra cup of ☕️ (recommended for my 70 albums of the 70s by my friend @jbbricker)

@starshine731 @VintageRockN_85 He was a nerd in high school. We went to the same high school in London. Nice guy. Dewey was a flower child. Dan always had a guitar with him.

@VintageRockN_85 I absolutely love Gerry's voice! I've had a crush on him since I was 15. I'm now 65 (geeze where the hell did the time go?) and I still have a crush on him!! Fifty freaking years! It's really hard to wrap my head around that.

Sister Golden Hair - America

@VintageRockN_85 They were not as good without Dan Peek. Dan added all the magical guitar licks and had the best voice. They were better as a trio.

@primarily_prog Saw them perform it live for the first time at the Rolling Stones Hyde Park concert in 1969. They recorded it a few days later. 🥸

Now playing …

@edgarrmcgregor The massive hole in the Sun spewing solar winds and storms hitting the Earth every 28 days when the Sun rotates and faces us has nothing to with it. 🤡

I think climatologists shot themselves in the foot when we said we cannot 100% attribute any singular weather event to climate change. The public just cannot understand that level of scientific rigor. It is too confusing. This event has climate change written all over it.

@CurseofConform Yup.

I'm not one of those guys who think that there isn't any good music today, totally false... But I was just listening to Kansas and there really isn't anything that is quite like the 70s era of music. Musicianship was top notch then.

@RockNRoLL_85 My friend and I skipped school to go to the last Cream concert at the Albert Hall in 1968. Saw him a few times after, last time in San Jose.

Have you seen Eric Clapton Live?

@shanaka86 Bull 💩 is fertilizer.

Ten things happened overnight that are restructuring the global order. Nobody is holding all ten simultaneously. Hold them now. One. The IDF dropped over 100 munitions on Tehran, hitting Quds Force command posts, IRGC aerial defence and Ground Forces headquarters, a cruise missile manufacturing site, and multiple ballistic missile and warhead research facilities. This happened while Trump was telling the world he is having “productive conversations” with the country being bombed. Two. 330 of Iran’s estimated 470 ballistic missile launchers destroyed. Seventy percent. Fire collapsed from 90 missiles per day to roughly 10. Netanyahu then confirmed Israel eliminated two more nuclear scientists “just days ago” and added: “the hand is still outstretched.” Assassination and invitation in the same sentence. Three. Iran’s Foreign Ministry denied all contact with the United States for the fourth time in 12 hours. Then Reuters reported that direct talks could be held in Islamabad this week, with Vance, Witkoff, and Kushner expected to meet Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf. The same Ghalibaf who hours earlier threatened Treasury bond holders with strikes on their headquarters. Iran denies talks exist while Pakistan prepares the conference room. Four. Iran published its escalation ledger: “You struck our hospitals, we did not do the same. You struck our emergency centres, we did not do the same. You struck our schools, we did not do the same. But if you strike electricity, we will strike electricity.” Not a threat. Accounting. Every absorbed category banked as moral capital for the one escalation that changes everything. Five. Trump said Hormuz will be “jointly controlled, maybe by me and the Ayatollah.” Then said “nobody has heard from him, we don’t know if he is living.” CBS confirmed at least a dozen Iranian naval mines in the strait. Maham 3 magnetic-acoustic mines that activate without contact. The strait is not just closed. It is mined. Six. The IEA declared this the worst energy crisis since the 1970s. Forty assets damaged across nine countries. Eleven million barrels per day offline. Fertilisers, helium, sulfur, petrochemicals interrupted. Hormuz shipping “completely off the charts for the rest of 2026.” Seven. Ukraine struck Primorsk, Russia’s largest Baltic oil terminal. Fuel tanks burning. Both Primorsk and Ust-Luga suspended. Two wars. Two chokepoints. One planet. Zero spare capacity. Eight. Trump told 450 million Europeans: ratify my $750 billion trade deal by Thursday March 26 or lose American LNG. Qatar offline. Russia severed. Norway maxed. He spiked oil Saturday to create fear, crashed it Monday to create relief. Thursday is payday. Nine. Russia signed a deal to build Vietnam’s first nuclear power plant. Rosatom evacuates Bushehr with one hand and sells Ninh Thuan with the other. The disease and the cure ship from the same address. Ten. Rosatom is preparing “several waves of evacuation” from Bushehr nuclear plant, leaving a skeleton crew. Someone in Moscow calculated that the next phase of this war involves targets that glow in the dark. Ten events. Three continents. Two wars. One night. The strait is still closed and now mined. The 40 assets are still destroyed. The fertiliser is still blocked. The planting window is still closing. The launchers are still being hunted. The nuclear scientists are still being killed. And the five-day clock is still ticking toward Saturday. The molecules do not sleep. The molecules wait. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@its_The_Dr The Senility of Billy Jack Part III. Seemed like the series went on a bit too long🤔

You just knew that when he took his hat off someone was gonna get their Butt Kicked.

@covie_93 At least that don’t wear a dress.

These are the people now responsible for keeping you safe: -A drunk former fox news host -A 22-year-old former gardener and grocery store clerk -A plumber -A frat boy MAGA children's book author

@BreitbartNews @GOP “Breaking it off up your ass.” Your Honor

Sonia Sotomayor thinks she's got a real zinger, telling a @GOP lawyer: "Maybe we should have another president now" because Florida's military ballots came after election day in the 2000 Bush v. Gore fight He responds: "With all due respect, that is the reddest of red herrings."

@DisavowTrump20 @springsteen Tit.

🚨NEW: Bruce Springsteen has announced he will perform at the No Kings protest in Minneapolis this weekend. RETWEET if you proud to stand with @Springsteen!

@RichardHallin @TheExtremeMusi1 Love Dickie. But Duane didn’t need him (not picking a fight). Duane could have played that part, or put any good guitarist in that slot. It would still sound like the Allman Brothers. Duane was willing to share the limelight and set ego aside, if it made the music better. ☮️

@RuLarry @TheExtremeMusi1 Yup. . . Gregg definitely SHAT on his brother's legacy. . . . while IN MY OPINION, Dickey did nothing other than COMPLIMENT the Duane legacy. . . down to naming his son after him. . . who's no "slouch" in his own right!

Who is the GREATEST American BAND of ALL TIME???

@mazemoore @CollinRugg There are ways🤡

@CollinRugg BREAKING: Authorities had noted that no fingerprints were found on the weapon. Sorry.

Video posted in January 2024 shows cornhole star Dayton Webber loading and firing a handgun. Webber is accused of shooting and killing 27-year-old Bradrick Michael Wells in Maryland before driving off with the body in his car. The American Cornhole League has released the following statement: “The ACL is aware of the reports regarding allegations involving Dayton Webber. This is an extremely serious matter and our thoughts are with all those impacted, including the family and loved ones of Bradrick Michael Wells.” “At this time, this remains an active legal situation. We respect the judicial process and will not comment on specific allegations or details while proceedings are ongoing.” Video: daytonjwebber / YouTube

@bberkrot @RockNRoLL_85 I’m old. 👍☮️. The Geezer of Rock.

@RuLarry @RockNRoLL_85 Again, no argument on Duane. I got hooked listening to the final Fillmore East radio broadcast and missed seeing Duane live by just a few weeks. You're reverence is not allowing you to give Derek his due. Best player on the planet. The Derek and Warren Allmans were phenomenal

Allman Brothers at their best 🔥

@ramblinmans @CapricornMacon Duane was the singer the first couple years starting out. Duane had a beautiful voice, but let Gregg sing as he focused like a laser on guitar. Still improving when he died. Here’s a great song with Duane singing. youtu.be/rxr9W2dGUH0?si…

@RuLarry @CapricornMacon Haven’t heard much acoustic Duane. Thanks for sharing, I believe I need to dive deeper. You the man 😎

On this day in 1969, the jam session that led to the creation of the Allman Brothers Band took place in Jacksonville, FL. The jam at the Gray House went so well that Duane Allman barred the door and said anyone not willing to be in his band would have to fight his way out.

@bberkrot @RockNRoLL_85 Duane started playing around 14. Changed the way the slide is played. Started Southern rock. Layla, Hey Jude, Lone Me a Dime. The 22 best ABB songs. Duane arranged the music. Duane ghosting Laura Nyro’s beautiful voice. youtu.be/XXhDLmoL0ys?si…

@RuLarry @RockNRoLL_85 Duane was an incredible talent. No argument. But we lost him at 24 and he'd only been playing slide for a few years. Duane had yet to imagine the kind of things Derek does every night. Even Gregg suggested that Derek was Duane reincarnated.

@ramblinmans @CapricornMacon Memorized🥸🤠. One of my favorites of Duane: youtu.be/y9OGNMJ0-Kw?si…

@RuLarry @CapricornMacon Thanks for sharing. I wasn’t aware of this. Love makes the world go round was my wedding walk out song. Highly recommend the One Way Out audiobook on Spotify if you haven’t read it/ listened yet
