Today I’m listening to #TheAppleseedCast—The Fleeting Light of Impermanence (2019). Based in solid 90s post-punk w next-level post-rock frosting #TiLT

Today I’m listening to #VelocityGirl—Copacetic (1993). One of the most underrated outfits of the 90s. Nothing but goodness. If you like female-fronted indie rock/pop and you don’t know this band… get on it! #TiLT

Greatest Valentine ever 💖💗💓

Twas 20 years ago today… #Phish had just returned from a two-year hiatus. They played four shows at New Years and played LA the night before this (aka Valentines Day). The energy and excitement was off the chain! Also the venue was very oversold (or packed w people who snuck in) so it just added to the madness. One of the most intense and exciting concert experiences of my life #LasVegas
