At times funny. At other times bittersweet and even sad. A very well done movie.

A simple yet incredibly emotional and beautifull film. I love a movie that makes me feel. This one certainly does that.

My 1500th post!

Having read many loving tributes on Facebook I wish I'd known him better. It definitely seems that I missed out. Rest easy, Joe.

Your post made me curious, so I looked at my profile and discovered my 16th anniversary at VC is coming up in the spring. Time flies when you're having fun.

The Decemberists are set to release a double album some time next year. That's at the top of my list right now.

I'm not a huge fan of Jason Isbell, but his live shows are excellent. Another of the young bands you should check out is Wednesday. They're my favorite musical discovery of 2023. Here's a great 30-minute documentary on the band that was released not long ago.

The Decemberists. I can't remember but I may also expressed hope for a fourth band, Sweeping Promises. Regardless I'm extremely excited about this lineup!

Wow! Wednesday and Ratboys were two of the three bands on my wishlist. This is a fantastic lineup!

I took a break from this album for a while, but it's just as beautiful as I'd remembered it.

I forgot about the Depeche Mode record. I also enjoyed that one. And Mitski's The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We.

Definitely a great year for music. Wednesday - Rat Saw God (my favorite album of the year) The rest (in no particular order): Ratboys - The Window Yo La Tengo - This Stupid World Blur - The Ballad of Darren Sweeping Promises - Good Living Is Coming for You Lonnie Holley - Oh Me Oh My Son Volt - Day of the Doug The Baseball Project - Grand Salami Time! Cut Worms - Cut Worms Sufjan Stevens - Javelin Peter Gabriel - i/o Wilco - Cousin Favorite reissues: Lemonheads - Come on Feel the Lem

One of my favorites of 2023.

Sad news to wake up to.

Hope everyone is safe, warm, full, and in the company of those you love today.
