Cool. Will do. Thanks, and have a great weekend!

Yep. We should definitely expand to "I am making this" as well.

Yeah, it's so true! I've gotten close on bourbon street watching an amazing mostly cover band, but I never expect to find fitz again. But there's gotta be bands like that... Right? Or has it all been that fucked by the industry?

Fitzgeralds was my place in the 90s. Motherfuckers paved "paradise" and put up a parking lot. It enrages me every time I see it. My friends used to play downstairs at Fitz all the time back then. Looking for that vibe: clearly I'm not a teenager anymore, but I love a good dive and a good show. Doesn't really matter the genre as long as the musicians are good and know how to put on a show. Austin was also great for this, emos and hole in the wall were great, and taco land in SA was amazing until it wasn't.

I mean, is there anything like that in town?? Or do I need to go out to spring because that's where people can afford to have a good time? It would not surprise me and I'd be happy to even if that's quite a drive for me. I'm just kind of lost because I'm trying to get back to what I love, but I've been so isolated I don't know anything anymore.

I mean, I know numbers is still around. That's good. But there's got to be something else where good music is happening.

Sorry, not meaning to dump. I really appreciate your recommendations.

Hey there! Thank you for all your hard work, and congratulations on the success. I've never done moderation before, but I am willing to help out if I can get some guidance. I'm on tesseract, which I've heard is good for modding.

So is shit in town just crap? I honestly wouldn't be surprised, but I was hoping there might be something closer in.

Both of those look pretty awesome, though. Thanks for the recommendations.

"Flowers?"

Thanks for reminding me of this sketch. So great.

"Theresa's Sound World" by Sonic Youth is the first to come to mind. The whole of Daydream Nation could probably count, honestly.

"Everything in its Right Place" by Radiohead (edit: idiot autocorrect) is another one I've often taken an audio bath in. Much of that album works too. I just hate the final song.

Ah, the goose just needs to go to Gaul!

Yum! Thank you for posting. I will refer to this next time I make some muffins. Which will definitely be sooner now!

Absolutely horrendous. Please never listen to whoever gave you that. I am very serious: that shows such a lack of understanding anything about people, whoever is using this as a teaching material should be fired and banned from working with children. But they won't, because toxic bullshit like this is what administrators love.

I am really sorry this is your educational experience. It is not supposed to be like this. Introversion and extroversion are just stupid labels that try to make things easy. Those labeled introverts are often the most generous, thoughtful people who actually listen to and cooperate with others.
