the designated bus lanes from Grand to Ashland have just become express lanes for cars with tints
Streetsblog Chicago@streetsblogchi
We checked out new bus lanes on Chicago Ave. near the Bally's Casino site. The lanes won't be camera-enforced, so we're willing to wager car drivers will violate them. Springfield folks, how about passing state legislation to legalize camera enforcement of driving in bus lanes?

@misterminsoo Muna, Carly, Jessie Ware, Brittany Howard and especially Jai Paul are still extremely on brand for P4k 2.0. Would wager black pumas was more out of desperation than some sort of GQ harbinger

Black Pumas are unequivocally the worst artist to ever headline Pitchfork Music Festival. Even if you like them, every single person knows that this is an egregious choice and that it feels like a harbinger of terrible things to come after the GQ merger announcement. Legit sucks.

best worst case scenario for AH would have been keeping the grandstand while reconfiguring the track to be a modern remake of Poplar Creek

The Bears bought an iconic race track in the suburbs, tore it down thinking they’d get taxpayer funding out there, decided “Screw it, we don’t wanna move to the suburbs, and we’ll even spend $2 billion of our own money not to have to move to the suburbs.” Remarkable.

@jamesmckz Field Music cut better records during this era and they got total shade from P4k/the internet
English
Dunno if this band suffered a hype backlash somewhere along the line. It felt like they divided opinion at the time but I always really loved the low key soft prog swagger of this record. I rec time has been v.kind to it

Someone at the networks should really take note of the fact that there’s a massive online audience for these throwback clips of live bands playing on Reverb, Conan, Letterman, festival broadcasts, etc.
Let’s put bands back on TV!!
