Fuck these fools. Drunk on their own reckless power. Karma will catch up with all of them.

You are making good arguments. I'm all indecisive, for the moment at least. It will be interesting to see how the votes tally up!

I read this yesterday. Horrifying and utterly heartbreaking. How can the world stand by, watching?

I know, right? The past few days I've had Singing Saw on endless repeat!

Diane, I love that our money is going to support such a great cause. Thanks for spearheading this thing! What a nice show of unity in troubled times!

This thread makes wonderful reading, even if I couldn't be there!

Yep, I got ours. Shhhh, don't tell Alissa because hers is a present. I love that these are in a unique font color just for us. I can't help thinking of John Belushi as a bee.....but I want to be that bee in my Solid Sound tee.

Here's something from Deep Sea Diver, a band completely new to me. Love the percussion! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIP1Jpi4Sxs&list=PLXQ3cWBpH23J1ttGaBMxA2RmDoZunawgw

Here's another Kevin Morby. Love the bass & percussion in this one! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hpZqvrYFXI

Thanks Calvino! What a neat article. I love watching Glenn's mind work!

I think something big is happening in this silence.

You seem to have the greatest birdwatching! Where are you? Ow. I hear you...our last little deduction has also flown, and while we are lucky enough not to owe (we did recalculate our withholding), our refund is pretty tiny. At least it's a refund.

From the Comedy Showcase, Aparna Nancherla. Pretty great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fScKP1rXUJ8

I really like her! Great voice, wonderful guitar work, and intriguing lyrics!

You're both saying the same thing...SSF1 was in 2010, and he had to leave to be with Miiri for the birth. Then in 2011 he was walking around with that adorable baby.

Every single Solid Sound, I find myself wishing I'd spent more time beforehand, researching the talent. It's so easy to overlook a gem! So let's help each other get introduced to this year's roster with a collection of videos. Just pick an artist on the roster and post a video of them. I'll start with a couple. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgYFXQrVZq4 A bit of delicious Tweedy to get the anticipation rolling! And my favorite Kevin Morby song... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWDvlekoPkg Now YOU pick us one! We have a whole bunch of people to research. Here's a link to t

That's quite the gracious invitation, Lotti! How can she refuse!

Good to hear! I need to investigate a lot of the SSF bands/musicians. I always like getting reports from actual shows. "good lyrics"

Thanks for this post, Diane. It's a fun idea!

Wow, what an honor! https://news.uic.edu/uic-bioengineer-receives-fulbright-to-study-in-finland Glenn must be so proud of his brilliant wife! I raise a toast to science and the scientists who move us forward!

This is my favorite kind of news!

I don't understand it either. Are we?

Thanks for making me spit coffee on my keyboard! And we aren't even going to discuss how I JUST bought my Solid Sound flights the day before this story broke....on United. But I pity the fool that tries to keep me from Solid Sound. If I get removed from a flight, my seat will be coming with me! (Yes I know, what would be the point, but it makes a colorful threat, doesn't it?)

I had to look it up. What a gorgeous bird!
