HEY THERE!
Down in miami, doing miami stuff!
beach, pool, massage, repeat.
in between i work out and walk and eat stuff with quinoa in it.
i have to tell you about the melvins new record, tarantula heart.
if you hate metal, then stop reading this.
but you'd think after 40 years in the business Buzzo et al would not be inventing new stuff.
but the first song on this record ("pain equals funny" ) might be the greatest metal medley ever. i know i'm using the term "medley" incorrectly - but what to do you call a 20 minutes song with separate parts, each one classic?
you can get the album on iTunes. but i include the youtube link below.
again, if you're not into metal, you will find this abrasive and perhaps insane. so don't listen to it just to complain about how noisy and irritating it is. if you love metal and hard rock, this will be hit you in the face.
but for me its equal parts Stooges, Kiss and Hendrix, with Buzzo in front.
Congratulation to @SGKusmertz, @bek1, and @wilbner. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Joe and the Panelists.
@SGKusmertz If you could have one song play when you enter a room, what would it be?
@bek1 Do you usually feel excited or stressed out about going back to school after summer break?
@wilbner What was the best prank you’ve ever pulled?
Congratulations to @Ted_Prohowich. Your question was chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Ted_Prohowich What's your back to school advice?
This person was murdered this week in Austin Texas. He was one of the sweetest most helpful persons I’ve ever met. Supremely gentle. Willing to do just about anything for another person. And he was stabbed to death on a street at 11 am in the morning. For no reason other than a maniac was free to roam the streets. Rest in peace Andrew. We won’t forget you.
Today we lost one of our loyal supporters under truly reprehensible circumstances, Andrew Wimsatt.
I first met Andrew last year at one of our shows. He was a gently kind, steady presence – the kind of person who quietly showed up and supported without ever seeking attention. Every Friday, without fail, he sent me videos so I could share them with all of you for “Ask Greg and the Panelists.”
That consistency meant something. It was loyalty and its purist form.
Today we remember Andrew Wimsatt.
And to the individual responsible for this: I hope there is no escape from the consequences.
