  • I agree. Now that I’m old, my tastes are finally starting to gel, but I’m still always looking for great new musical experiences. I’ve gravitated to LOTS of great music, and even entire new genres, that became a regular part of my listening long past 14.

    I started playing the guitar again during the pandemic, after stopping for decades. Now I’ve become a good enough player, that most of the time, I’d rather just listen to my own self-played solo guitar music. That definitely wouldn’t have been on my radar in my teens.





  • A-fucking-men. These people need to know that just because the scales have fallen from their eyes, we will not be welcoming them back to the ranks of civilized society anytime soon. They may be pissed about this, but we’ve come down a long road of atrocities that they either supported or ignored, and they have a LOT to answer for in that regard. Their enthusiastic dismissal of simple human - and American - decency will not be forgotten, and all MAGAs have a long way to go to redeem themselves, which in many cases will be impossible.

    Imagine that you’re awake, with your eyes open, aware of the issues in the world, and wanting to be part of making it better, and…

    …there’s a massive number of people who think you’re a shithead for believing that, and should probably be murdered for it. Just do what they tell you.






  • Music is always a great way to make friends. Most musicians want to make music with others, so they are pretty easy to approach about it. If you aren’t up to their level, they’ll help you, and if you are better than them, you can help them.

    I’m an old guy, but I can’t tell you how fast the generation gaps evaporate when musicians start talking. Decades don’t matter when you are talking about your favorite music.

    Music is such a great contributor to society, that I can’t believe the MAGA Nazis haven’t tried to ban it yet.
