This thread got me thinking about how there are parts of the music industry you'd assume pay much more than they do. I used to know a guy who worked as a touring musician for a mid-level pop act playing to 5000 people a night and he'd get about $50 a show (plus a small per diem for food)



But I bet he got laid so much

Great, honest thread by Albini here, discussing his former position as a shock actor, and his underwhelming comeuppance:

the end of It Never Rains in Southern California, especially the last two lines, are some of the most depressing lyrics i've heard

Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya?
It pours, man, it pours

Once a year or so, usually in the fall around my birthday, I get the urge to put together a Spotify playlist of the 90's christian alt rock I listened to as a teen. Then I remember that most of it isn't on streaming services. Then I listen to what's left and despair. 12 months later I do it again!

The Who is Daniel Johns? (Silverchair) pod is unbelievably corny so far. I've no doubt his late teens were difficult, but at one point while talking about the pressures of fame he starts hyperventilating/coughing. The interviewer asks if he needs a drink of water and Daniel replies "it's not that... ... it's not that". All very dramatic. Seems sus/self-absorbed in a Billy Corgan kind of way -- which is funny because Billy was interviewed for the series.

Any time a band took a bunch of label money and dumped into creating their own studio, it seems to pay off...But Spoon and Wilco are at the top of the pile, for me.

Not sure if I should feel bad about loving 'Hide and Seek' by Imogen Heap.

It's a bold move to lean so heavily on vocoder, but it works remarkably well in this instance. I also love the DIY loop station vibe towards the end.

It was made popular by the regrettable teen drama 'The OC', so it's got that working against it I guess.
