OT: Thread About Nothing (TaN #...lost count)

I saw Dinosaur Jr about a hundred years ago.

They may have been on the same bill as Fugazi or maybe I'm just imagining that because I saw both (saw Fugazi quite a few times) around the same time?

I think I may have even saw Dinosaur Jr more than once.

They claim it’s their last tour.

I would be shocked if 10 years goes by and they don’t play again.

Barring Fat Mike or somebody else dying.

I think they probably believe this is it, but I can see them coming back after a while.

Why texasians are so mad? Cowboys lost in NFL playoff?

i have no place to go

This was a pretty significant moment in rock history. Mick Ronson on Heroes. Bowie had dumped Ronson before he moved on to that phase of his career. Ronson was amazing. Look into his career and it's really impressive. He died from liver cancer by 46. What a loss. The Stones really missed the boat when they replaced Mick Taylor with Ron Wood instead of adding Ronson.



and listen to that bass run on Heroes. It's eerily similar to Under Pressure that happened to have the riff written by that bassist.

I saw Ian Hunter back in 2016 at the Newton Theatre. Love that place - very small and not a bad seat anywhere.

Looks like a great show. He’s got an underrated catalogue. Ronson was on a bunch of those original recordings.

don't see bowie play sax live too often...and i should get an e-bow (ronson is using one on heroes)

I think Bowie saw himself more as an artist (however he defined that) than a musician. He was always more focused on the presentation than the music. He relied on others for that in most of his career phases. I think it’s one of the reasons he was so uneven musically. Other than the Ziggy album he really had no other great album. He had great songs but what Bowie album are you putting on to hear all of it beyond Ziggy?

That’s probably the closest although side 2 is pretty meh to me. I also liked most of Let’s Dance but it’s not an overall great album. It’s subjective of course but as a big Bowie fan that’s how it always struck me. A core of great songs and some filler on his albums

I designed a new grasshopper fly pattern that I'm looking forward to testing out this summer. I might still need to make some minor tweaks...I think perhaps the brown deer hair wing should be longer and I think I might want to try a different hook? Not sure but I like this simple clean pattern that can be a grasshopper or a stonefly.

How come nobody told me there was a movie about the history of CBGBs starring the late great Alan Rickman? Looking in your direction @njdevils1982
