Re: Coronavirus
Yeah, I’m not too high on humanity these days. Last Friday I got a call from my insurance regarding the accident where I got hit in front of Fingerprints Records in Long Beach last Summer. Turns out the guy that broadsided me and then slammed head on into another car later claimed neck injury and wa...

Re: Coronavirus
So I had my first major run-in with an idiot in a grocery store who made a big deal about not wearing a mask. I was in line about to pay for groceries when the clerk noticed this guy in a motorcycle outfit w/no mask doing self-checkout in the next isle over. The clerk tells the guy he needs to wear ...

Re: Ashes and Diamonds (new Daniel Ash band&album)
I'll check this out, but I haven't been super impressed with much of Ash's stuff the last couple'a decades. Poptone was ultimately just ok.
I have to say, at this point I'd be more psyched for a Love And Rockets reunion especially with a new album than Bauhaus.

Re: Donald Trump running for President.
It's not going to get done in the Senate until after the new Senate convenes and Biden takes office. McConnell won't take it up until probably sometime in February. A few reasons for not ramming it through this week include some in the Senate are terrified of further inflaming the crazies or at leas...

Re: Donald Trump running for President.
Like Nausea, I don't understand how the rioters got as far as they did. Yes, the large number overwhelmed the police there but, I would think that there are people in the government whose job it is to monitor social media, and various hate groups to keep tabs on what they're doing. If some of the r...

Re: Donald Trump running for President.
It looks like the endgame is impeaching Trump a second time in the coming months (it can be done after he's out of office) in the hope they get a full vote that would prevent him from running for office ever again. Too many of his Cabinet crony picks are jumping ship to get out of that sinking ship ...

Re: When did Perry's voice die?
I saw a big difference in Perry's vocals between the '97 Enit Relapse show and the 2001 Hollywood Bowl show. Listening to Strays, a lot of the quirkiness and higher range in Perry's JA v.1 vocals were gone but I'd bet some of that was due to Ezrin wanting Perry to sing in a more traditional way. Tha...
