Dusty Chalk

I will not pretend to be anywhere near the caliber of the talent here, but I just bought two electric saws. Suitable for framing.

Damn that Gretsch is beautiful. Wish it came in barito...oh, wait, I have that one.

You know, if you distribute the computer to a bunch of slices (shaped like an ...I don't know... orange slices, perhaps?) and then buss them together and space them apart, the cooling would be scary good, wouldn't it?

Happy birthday, Marc not Mark! (party favour noise)

Thank you, everyone! 😘

District 97, Stay for the Ending -- just released, I got my physical copy yesterday, so great, very prog, much prog, high production values, RIYL Steven Wilson, Jethro Tull, American Idol (I jest, I jest!), lots of dynamics (gets very hard and very soft)

Metric (IIRC, there are a few fans here), Formentera II

They were probably using a NISQ-era (now) Quantum Computer without the latest advances in error correction, and the qubits decohered. Also: "Think of the children chickens!"

Dusty like the color scheme.

Yeah, that was an emotional one. This is an ironic one (or unfortunate, I don't know which): Michael Chiarello -- famous food chef, died of complications resulting from an acute allergic reaction. What an awful way to go. I'll probably die of something stupid, like drowning in my own snot (I have a cold right now, and I had one of the hottest Chinese mustards I've ever had on my egg roll earlier, and the mustard loosened up my sinuses), so I am not being judgmental here.

Samsara Blues Experiment, Rock Hard in Concert (Live) Stoner, my beloved. Very comfy. Nicely psychedelic touches.

What I love about this story (as a non-attendee) is that I literally couldn't tell the difference between reality and an Onion article. He has become the living embodiment. If I was an attendee, I would've been pissed. Oh, and finally, snarky response: Animals Redux (Not Even the Music)

RIP Rudolph Isley, harmony singer and one of the main songwriters of the Isley Brothers.

Most of the album is out on Spotify, in two forms.

Pick your favourite news source, this apparently really happened, and is not satire: https://www.google.com/search?q=roger+waters+london+show+fuck+off

Yeezh, re: making your wife and daughter sitting on the floor. Yeezher re: dodging bombs.

Love this. What genre would you call this? Unrelated: Have i shared this yet? Classical Japanese (the woman, Ueda) meets Modern French Prog (the three four guys, PoiL)

One of mine as well. There's sort of a Discord server devoted to it, but all they care about is Casiopea and T-Square. Are you fond of "City Pop"? Lamp, etc.? But I digress. All I know is Casiopea, T-Square/The Square/3rd Square and related, Hiromi, and Nucleus (Alleycat, etc.). Wouldn't mind some recommendations.

Pinhead: You mean, The Tetrubiksis Configuration, hmmm?

Happy Birthday to a very generous soul.

What about impedance matching?

Shush, you. He likes engraving. Let him have his fun.

Kiss the Anus of a Black Cat, Hewers of Wood and Drawers of Water I don't know who needs to hear this, but I did, and I liked it. Band name is awkward, though. https://kisstheanusofablackcat.bandcamp.com/track/argonaut-and-magneto Also: Piano Magic, Ovations Amazing album, somewhere between Pieter Nooten, Dead Can Dance, and...I honestly don't know, it sounds vaguely like stuff I used to listen to regularly, yet not like any of them. His Name is Alive, maybe? I'm mentioning a bunch of 4AD artists, so that should give you an idea. From a different album:
