I am a fiercely independent traveler that loves music, beer, wine, whiskey, Jeeps, hiking, climbing, all things North and South Carolina, and the company of strangers that have a good story to tell.
New music from #feeblelittlehorse
It scratches that proverbial itch…especially if you need some new #indierock , #noise , #shoegaze , that awesome #saddlecreek sound, and a unique #pittsburgh band in your life.

Enjoy!

I bought a single ticket to go see Health w/Author & Punisher in May at the Lincoln Theater in Raleigh. It was equally exciting and depressing. I go to too many shows alone these days. Le sigh.

I can’t recall the last time I interacted on Bluesky with anything meaningful, but I’m here now. I guess this is a proverbial “proof of life” post.

Hello everyone! Send me 2025 only new music release suggestions, please. Thank you in advance. I’ll respond with a mini review.
February 13, 2025 at 4:13 AM
So…let me get this out there:

Hello! to the many “Only Fans,” BDSM, and porn-forward BlueSky accounts that have chosen to follow me. I support what you do. I hope that you are happy & safe.

But I’m NOT the droid you are looking for.

Carry on, beautiful people. I’m just not your target audience.

I’m officially an “empty nester.” Son #1 moved out in September of 2023. Son #2 spread his wings today. Somehow I thought that today would be full of joy and celebration. I’ve felt more uplifted at a funeral. This sucks.

In 2024, more music is being released in a single day than was released in the entire calendar year of 1989, according to a new report → cos.lv/6Z5h50U8E2K

I’m (slowly) compiling my “Best Music Releases of 2024” list. It’s an exercise steeped in absolute madness.

How about you all contribute to the insanity by either sharing your list of top 5, 10, 25, 100 or whatever lists…or just tell me the one album that I should consider or may have overlooked.

Got a bunch of followers over the past few days. Not sure why, but I’m guessing it’s because of the exodus away from X.

Cool. Good move.

Hello new followers! Happy to meet you.

@juliemason.bsky.social Each day I await my daily vocabulary lesson from you. Today you hit us early with “defenestrate.” Now to figure out how to work this word into a conversation with my wife, who will predictably roll her eyes at me in disgust.

Stopping in here to see what’s up. Kind of left Bluesky for a few months. Still not sure if I’m in to it.

Drove across the country to Seattle. Stopped in some great places. Saw a few friends. Took in some live shows. Went to Yellowstone.

Going to spend the rest of the week at the NC beach.

I don’t know how many times that I’ve heard “Don’t You” by Simple Minds over the past 38 years, but some how it evades the traditional aging process that songs undergo.

Haven’t been on here in a few weeks. Here to remind you that I’m still traveling around NC, listening to great music, and drinking beer.

This day did not go as planned.

I was supposed to go see Louise Post at the Pinhook in Durham, NC tonight.

That did not happen.

I’m so bummed right now.

bru·tal /ˈbro͞odl/ adjective
savagely violent

Writers. I’m m looking at you. This is the definition of BRUTAL.

I have a problem with your overuse and gross misunderstanding of this word.

Stop. Using. It. Now.

A players mistake in a baseball game is NOT BRUTAL.

Never will be.

Full stop.

I should go to bed, but I’ve decided to plot my day off tomorrow. Idle hands, something something…

Drinking whiskey inspires me. Or maybe it’s the ‘Beaucoup Fish’ CD that I’m listening to.

You decide.

First day off tomorrow in over 3 weeks because apparently there is some holiday or something.

I just want to know if there are breweries, wineries or distilleries open in the Raleigh/Durham area, otherwise, what’s the point of not working tomorrow?
July 4, 2023 at 3:41 AM
Just had a shit day and ended it by listening to the entire Metz catalog.

Now I want to go flip over a cop car, or do a shot of whiskey and go to bed.

Guess which one is more probable…
July 4, 2023 at 2:37 AM
Trying to decide which album in my collection gets more play:

Quicksand’s “Slip” or My Bloody Valentine’s “Loveless.”

I’ve listened to them both at least 2 or 3 times a week for the last 30+ years.

Both are perfect.
