This happened to my neighborhood when I was living in eastern Oregon. It was so alarming that I got my kids out of the house and called emergency services in case there was a gas leak or something. A few of my neighbors did too. Turns out that it was something on a passing train that just stunk.

That sounds great! Hopefully weather works out for you.

That's a scary anxiety dream! Btw congratulations on training for a 100! Which one are you doing?

G-2

What an awful thing to witness. I'm so sorry for you having to see it and to the climber's friends and family for their loss. Just devastating.

Oh my god, that's awful. Was there any indication of what went wrong?

It would be one thing if we were talking about Neal Peart, but we're talking about Billy.

At around 22 or 23 seconds he does a snare hit on 4 and the upbeat along with a bell on the upbeat. He follows this with a little fill around the toms and then hits 4 and the upbeat again on the next measure. Hard to imagine that happening exactly the same way twice.

I'm not going to analyze the pitch, but Billy sure seems to be playing the exact same thing.

Awesome! I'm looking forward to it. Incidentally, she grew up about 20 minutes away from me so it will be fun to chat about that as well.

Angela Autumn house show

So good! I met Sean Thompson a few years ago when he played a house show in my town, and he has been one of my favorite guitarists ever since.

Is that outside the Gaylord Rockies resort?

Currently doing just this

The Beaverton dealer had an airbag in stock, so they got it over to the downtown Portland location and got it taken care of. But it was a crap show.

Repair shops are really hitting it out of the park this week
