We are playing at the echoplex with the too stoned Nintendo band aka American Hifi tonight. NOT the regent. The show got moved. You may be SHOCKED to learn there are still tickets available. Come out unless you'd rather not

Thinking about starting to post like a normal nineties band and just say stuff like "very excited to be playing pechanga casino and resort on june 6th!🤘" With a photo of us wearing weird hats and wallet chains

My first show with Fountains of Wayne is May 24th in Boca Raton and you should come out because the world really needs alternative rock right now. Especially Florida

No medals won for sticking around in situations where they're not playing any alternative rock

If you're at a party and they're not playing any alternative rock it's ok to just our lady peace out

You're telling me that going through life only pointing out the faults of others and never taking stock of my own isn't a good idea? Are you some kind of sadist?

Some singers' speaking voices sound completely different than their singing voices which is fine but a thing I appreciate about the everclear guy is there's zero daylight between the two. He can be talking about where to go for lunch and it's like bro are you singing one of your b sides rn

Remember to be kind to everyone you meet today and to listen to at least 3 CDs. If you can't listen to them in their entirety don't stress yourself out. A few songs from each is fine
Jerry Chen (@jcsalterego.bsky.social) reposted
"closing time" by @eve6.bsky.social was a popular song in the 1900s about the nightly shutdown of the internet on school nights. not many people know this
eve6 (@eve6.bsky.social)
I know it can be overwhelming when you open your CD carrying case because there are so many CDs in there. How do you know which one to choose? Relax. Close your eyes and just point to a CD and wherever your finger lands that's the CD you're supposed to listen to

yeah I mean look, the whole mechanism of art (visual, music, writing, whatever) is that it is emotions made tangible in some way without the emotions you are literally left with... nothing. a repackaging of what humans have expressed in other art. it has no value. why would anyone want it

I feel the same way about ai music. Maybe it will be able to make something that approximates a good song at some point but the second I learn it was created by a thing that can't experience loss or joy or whatever it immediately becomes uninteresting by definition

Alternative rock could be run so much more efficiently. How necessary are a singer, guitar player, bass player and drummer. You could get rid of all of those positions and replace them with one guy who just shows up at the venue and hawks crypto

In retrospect we should have reacted much more strongly to people being like “you’re just virtue signaling, you’re just saying you have virtue, you’re just treating virtue like it’s a good thing for an adult human being to have, you just want to run around everywhere having morality and being good”

Wry irony is good insulation against the horrors of the world but some people have grown to feel like it’s the only language you can speak and as good as it feels to be that way it doesn’t really help anyone or anything

At the time I thought they were pretty annoying but I miss the alternative rock radio dj's that affected fake, caricatured southern california stoner voices for on air and said stuff like comin up we have 45 minutes of non stop alternative rock
