We checked out Crystal Grottoes cave near Sharpsburg, MD. It’s been decades since I’ve been in a cave, I used to explore wild caves as a kid/teen. Since the Appalachians are made of limestone, there are many caves around where I grew up. A fair amount have been turned into tourist spots like this

RIP Jimmy Cliff. The Harder They Come is one of my favorite movies. My dad showed it to me when I was a kid and of course I instantly fell in love with the music and the outlaw story, it’s a perfect movie. JC’s singing is unparalleled, heavy reggae soul. He has now crossed the last river

I wish you could just upload a WAV into a post here and it would be playable. I would just post random unreleased music that way

I posted our recent album MF on reddit for a lark. The sole comment:

"Ok...well...for me....the recording quality is lacking, I found it a little quiet and lacking any moments or dynamics. Sorry."

I've long felt that there's no reason to hate on any member of The Dead, it's a vast tapestry and why not just embrace it all. But I feel like this goes hardest for Donna Jean, who I will always think of as "the Christian Linda Sharrock" and like all women in rock was hated mostly due to misogyny

RIP Donna Jean

“Krautrock” was very informed by a generation of young people reckoning with the atrocities their parents committed or at least didn’t actively resist

Every time I play a guitar show I see the other acts and think fuck I cannot play guitar then I get up and play guitar because who cares?

I’m the worst, roughest finger-style guitar player ever, and yet I persist
