          His lyrical abilities, on this one especially, are ridiculously clever

            'When I try to drown my thoughts in Gin, I find my worst ideas know how to swim'

            'If no one's fond of fucking me, I guess no one's fucking fond of me'

            Two lines the come to mind...

            The whole premise of Margarita at the Mall is genius too. Using the idea of drinking something that nobody really enjoys in a fake, sterile environment as a metaphore for life is so beautifully cynical.

            Love his work with Silver Jews, but this is undoubtedly his magnum opus. It feel weird mourning a man I hadn't even heard of until after his death, but you can't help but feel connected to somebody who was able to so poetically articulate thoughts you've had a thousands times, but never been able to adaqautely communicate.

              @mclaincausey What do you think about the new Billy Strings album?

              I love most of it. I think the production value of his records keeps getting better, and this is some of the best sounding music he's ever recorded from a sound engineering perspective. I also love most of the songs, and I think it's a solid album with a very distinct vibe to it. Truly a masterpiece, and fits so well with the rest of the catalog.

                    I guess it depends on what stores they have.

                      There is no greater joy than drinking 3 or 4 margaritas, going shopping with your significant, and standing creepily in a Victoria Secrets whilst being viewed as such by all customers and staff. Also, it will only be a minute or two is never, and I mean never a minute or two.

                          @Matt There aren't enough chairs to sit in or interesting clothes to look at in malls. No thank you.

                                            @seawolf SD and socal in general seem to get the shaft on hippie music for some reason. We caught an Infamous Stringdusters + Greensky Bluegrass show there last time I was in town at a cool venue that I think is fairly new.

                                            Did you see Gizz out there? Not sure if you’re a fan but I almost came out for that.

                                            I’ll ping you next time I’m out there. I thought you’d relocated to the PNW!
