I wish I had more to offer beyond long distance internet support. But I empathize, having been there many times myself. Music is always my lifeboat.

But your work also sits on my shelf among many other treasured favorites. Thank you for that.

Opener Rasha Nahas was fantastic too, bringing a sharper rock edge to the show. Shredding on guitar, wailing vocals, but tempered with great depth of emotional expression. She’s a Palestinian currently living in Berlin. Needless to say, it was an evening of incredibly timely and poignant music. 🖤

Emel at Pioneer Works last night was incredible. She’s a Tunisian-American artist whose album The Tunis Diaries I became obsessed with five years ago. Her new album is an electro-pop celebration of female creativity that moves hearts, minds, and feet on the dance floor. She’s on tour now. 🙌🖤

Same post at the same time on Threads (first image) and BlueSky (second).

There’s no comparison. The algorithm on Threads is far and away better catered to engender organic engagement.

BlueSky seems to be extremely silo’d. A shame, bc fuck Zuck.

Post a picture of when your pet was little.

June was 7 months old here. On her gotcha day in December 2019, fresh to NYC from a kill shelter in Tennessee.

I am in awe of both Julia Ducournau and Coralie Fargeat on this International Women’s Day.

All About Eve came out the same year as Sunset Boulevard, and remains just as searingly relevant.

From my Letterboxd about that movie...

The amount of work bands used to put into arranging and rehearsing their MTV Unplugged sets is so self-evident in every episode.

This is the best Alice In Chains has sounded… ever? Maybe.

Watched Flow last night with my dog, and she loved it.

It’s become a meme to see pets watching this movie, but I couldn’t believe how much June was entranced by it.

The Tori Amos Unplugged is transcendent. Wow. 🖤

All streaming services are too expensive.

However. If you’ve got Paramount+ or access to it, I have to say… the newly added MTV Unplugged library is phenomenal.

One of these was… not like the others.

Watched Before Sunrise with my daughter last night (remains an all-timer)… shout out this Unsane poster!

Legends of the NYC loud music scene, and friends of my band.🤘

I collect 16mm film prints, and this is my first viewing of my my recent acquisition… one of my fav movies of all time. 🙌

Well this is worthwhile...

“There once was a time in this business when I had the eyes of the whole world! But that wasn't good enough for them, oh no! They had to have the ears of the whole world too. So they opened their big mouths and out came talk. Talk! TALK!”

People sometimes ask if I listen to my own music, and I mean… not usually. But when the band is texting on the group chat on a Saturday night when I’m having whiskey alone? Shit yeah. We made music we love!

What would it look like if you could program a Valentine's Day horror marathon? What are your "romantic horror" go-tos?

Fun.

My thoughts on my only viewing of the first Terrifier movie, you know since the director wants to act like it's not "political"...

Still over 10,000 in line ahead of me, but StubHub already looks like this.

Broken-ass system. Like everything else.

Stay alert.
Do your work.
Don’t worry about the world going by.
It doesn’t mean you can sit around & not do anything,
You’ve got to get your butt in gear & do it.
Don’t take no for an answer.
Translate those ideas to cinema or a painting or whatever.
Figure out a way to get it done.
