        Saw Pavement recently. I was decidedly dissapointed by a band whose music I've bought since1991. Hey ho

          Funny. I saw em at a small club here in Austin a couple weeks ago and they were fantastic. They played three shows (including an ACL taping) and covered an absolutely massive range of songs. The show I saw was a lot of really great, deep-dive stuff — Westing, b-side, EP material, plus a couple big ones (Silence Kit probably the biggest).

          I've seen them in '99, '10, and now '22 — can't say any show was better than the other 🤷‍♂️

                Fall of 1980,my band was recording it’s second album at Roundhouse Studio in London. We were big fans of The Jam,which we mentioned to the studio receptionist. She replies well Paul Weller’s a mate of mine,I’ll ring him up for you. He invites us to come hang out with them where they were recording,couldn’t have been nicer,and invited us to come see them at a concert in Manchester,which we did. It was in a high school gymnasium of sorts.

                      I know we got some Billy Strings fans.  He absolutely crushes this.

                          A generational talent and visionary. He did a Lord of the Rings theme for their 3 day Halloween run. I streamed Halloween night and he had the drummer from Widespread Panic, Duane Trucks (Butch Trucks’ nephew) along with some other guests, and a big old Orange rig. Busted out a Les Paul to play superb renditions of “Ramble On,” Sabbath’s “The Wizard,” “The Battle of Evermore,” and “War Pigs,” all in the theme of the final chapter of LotR and intermixed with more traditional instrumentation and styles. Also covered “Fearless” by Floyd as they sometimes do.

                          There are a couple of shows from a festival called Rooster Walk where he teamed up with Marcus King and the amazing Jeff Sipe on the skins, and those are amazing as you’d expect. The first time it happened they had only met a few hours prior. You can find videos and recordings searching for “King and Strings.”

                          Here is a show by a great band of Bill Kreutzman’s (Grateful Dead drummer) I was at where they played “Join Together” by the Who into “Franklin’s Tower” by the Dead:

                          All that said, his acoustic stuff for me is even somehow better than majesty of electric Billy.

                          black midi, as mentioned, not bad either. Not sure how I’d describe them but some of their more frenetic and ADD moments recall Mr. Bungle for me.

                          Think it, be it.

                            I’ve seen some of the Halloween show and it’s just off the charts fun and great. Highly recommend a documentary called Let There be Drums done by Jason Kreutzman(Bill’s son) It’s available to rent on Amazon Prime. It’s a little bit dark at times,but worth it.

                              I don't really like the Cure much, but did you hear Weller's comments on Robert Smith? Left a bad taste in my mouth. (Also, why is the "c-word" and the "p-word" used as an an insult?)

                              Yes, I do understand the history that drove these remarks. No, I don't think that being a bellend means I can't appreciate someone's art (see Roger Waters).

                              Think it, be it.

                                  Well, everything I've ever heard about Weller has indicated that he's a stand up guy, if not more than occasionally a bit of a wild man back in his partying days.

                                  Plus, working class British musician say something disparaging about artsier British musician? That's never happened…
