She's got mad chops but I just find her shit boring. I wish she'd just hook up with a legit drummer.

I ended up skipping the El Paso show, but looking forward to Camp Cope on Wednesday down in the Old Pueblo.

They just sent out a scathing IG post about their fans not supporting the opening acts, but we fully expect to arrive late (just in time for CC). :oops:

The women of Camp Cope where great, but I got crazy drunk and high.

My wife drove us back, then she didn't talk to me for a few days.

This is really tickling me this week.

Went to a Camp Cope show last week after reading your recommendations, it was excellent. They don't lose anything live.

Eddy Current Suppression Ring Announce New Album

And drop a surprise track, Our Quiet Whisper:

Assuming it’s been mentioned here before, but Careless by Paul Kelly (& the messengers!) is one of my favorite songs ever. A true clinic in 3 chord songwriting. Never tire of it.

Dude's a gem for sure (regardless of what Spenno might try to argue!).

How to Make Gravy has always been one of my all time favourites, and the song doesn't have a chorus, which is kinda weird. Paul Kelly is both a prolific and intriguing songwriter. I believe no less than Bob Dylan once commented that he was the best songwriter going around at a certain time.

His first best of is essential.

Related - I vaguely remember entering a competition a while ago where I had to state my fave PK song and why in 25 words or less. Got this e-mail today:

I never win things, so this was a kind of nice surprise.

Anyone interested in the signed vinyl? I don't really do vinyl.

Been getting into The Peep Tempel lately. Here's Neuroplasticity from their 2016 album "Joy".
