My new LP is available now wherever you listen to music. Desert rock, meditative cosmic folk, a touch of countrypolitan lounge.
Stream wherever, but favor @Bandcamp: alwayshappeningrecords.bandcamp.com/album/jason-p-…
Vinyl available at @hellomerch: hellomerch.com/products/jason…

Funny to see CBS promote Nielsen ratings showing robust competition for U.S. TV audiences that contradict its parent company’s antitrust narrative that Netflix is too dominant…

went on NPR to talk about Geese, a band everyone is being super normal about

@Steven_Hyden @ringer The young bull said, “‘Trinidad’ or we riot! Right, Dad?”
And the old bull said, “No, son. ‘Trinidad’ AND we riot.”
English
I wrote about Geese's upcoming SNL appearance, and the endless social-media outrage cycles the band attracts (and how it feels a little familiar), for @ringer.

People getting ate up on threads for sharing how they met Toni Morrison and she was rude. They said keep that to yourself lmaooo

@SaveArclight Dinner at Westside Tavern below it, killing time before the movie at Barnes and Noble, that was LIVING.

I miss the Landmark Cinemas West LA. Anyone remember this? It was incredible.

@worldsoccertalk Ridiculously misleading clickbait headline.

@GraceSpelman Setlist.fm is the library of Alexandria to me.

back in Old Times, you could browse cool websites for hours. These were websites not built around monetization. They were built to be explored and rewarded curiosity.
So few of them exist today but if you have any you love, please drop them in the replies!

@north0fnorth i’ve found fontsinuse.com to be a pretty reliable source when i want to look at some period-specific design! you can click on the year & also their tag system is pretty good

@JohnSmi61320229 @Steven_Hyden Yep. I think it was the only time they ever played it.
English
@captaincarrigan @Steven_Hyden MTSU basketball arena? I was there. Not sure if they did that on other stops but they did there.

When you add up all the great songs they played on The MGs must be counted among the top 1 percent of all time great American bands. RIP.

@uphillinvisible @aquadrunkard Saw them on the Lollapalooza tour before this came out, with these songs making up most of the set. Diamond Sea was stunning then and now.

Their best 90s moment.

Sonic Youth :: Washing Machine at 30 aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/11/19/son… Three decades in, Washing Machine now feels like the most clear divide between the first and second halves of Sonic Youth’s career, an insightful Polaroid of the band at that fiery transitional moment.

@TylerKepner We went to see the Cardinals in spring training around then. I came home feeling my knowledge of his existence before the season was a hot stock tip.

@captaincarrigan Started for Jack Clark in the 1987 WS. Then was one of the many ex-Cardinals Lee Thomas brought to the Phillies.

OK. Endless rain delay in Detroit. Drop me a name of a random player from 1975-present and I'll tell you the first thing that comes to mind. Kind of a modified AMA.

@ListlessLivings @JSiwanowicz “For Water Boots I filled two black boots with water and put a small amount of explosive in them. This is what the water looked like when I fired them electrically.”
English
@ListlessLivings @JSiwanowicz I have always been mystified by this image. I don’t think it was photoshopped. Hoses spraying up from under the boots that were turned off a split second before the pic?

@jeremypgordon Mike Love wrote the (great) lyrics to “All Summer Long.”
English
It's healthier to accept the fact that Mike Love brought something to the Beach Boys — and worth meditating on, even, the idea that someone so seemingly unpleasant might've been fundamental to such a magical group. It's not an all-or-nothing thing, and rarely is
Ray Padgett@rayfp
There’s been such a wild overcorrection where music nerds act like the only valid Beach Boys music are the tortured-soul records no one liked at the time. The early hits are magical! They were huge for a reason. Any random 60s hits comp has music right up there with Pet Sounds

My favorite WTF interview is Paul Thomas Anderson (probably the best PTA interview ever) and my least favorite was anytime he talked to a musician.
