The Whistle Stop
@WhistleStopBand
The Whistle Stop Revue, an Acoustic/Progressive/Bluegrass band from Southeast MI!



There was a time when I watch a movie just because Samuel L. Jackson was in it. I would read a book just because it had Stephen King's name on it. I would buy an album becasue it was Barbra Streisnad. Now, these names fill me with dread and revulsion. Because they made the choice to spit in the faces of their conservative fans. So now I avoid their art. Delieberately and conscientiously. Because why would I give my money to people who have said flat-out that they hate me? It's 2024, and voting with our wallets is really the only power we have left as Americans. Who have you guys given up on?



Lol Democrats introduced a bill to ban Trump from being buried at Arlington National cemetary, an honor reserved for National Heroes only. How does that make you feel?




I'd already been into live Dead for a couple years when I discovered Madison 2/15/73, but this show – the 'Dark Star' > 'Eyes' > 'China Doll' sequence esp – took my love of the Dead to another level (and cemented '73 as my favorite yr for them).
