You know who really “hates Nashville”? The Republicans who did this to the city to steal their representation, while refusing to have a single town hall there ever. (cc: Speaker Sexton, @SenJohnson @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn @AndyOgles @RepJohnRose @MattForTN @RepMarkGreen @SenatorHagerty )

Calling the radio station to request a song so you could tape it
What’s a real thing from your childhood that kids these days would find completely foreign?
Like, how we used to be able to walk right up to the gate to meet our family coming off a flight.
Or how we had to pick a spot to meet at the theater BEFORE we went.

Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

Back in 86, I was in high school, watching Lou Reed on SNL. My dad says “Can he sing more than three notes?”
Using this as a start: what are your favorite examples of unconscious/unforced dad-or-mom shade about your musical tastes? Just something said immediately or off the cuff. Spill all your secrets!
I want to say, when I was a kid, shortly after we got cable, we were watching MTV (obviously back when they actually played music videos) and something by Aerosmith was playing.
My father, walking through the room said, "Is that Mick Jagger? No, wait, not ugly enough. Can't be him."
