@T4920 argh!! That saga ended in a rather shit way. Our friends getting married had us postpone getting tix. They ultimately told us they are moving the wedding back a year. By that time Morgan had approved a work partner to take a vacation right at the time of the show (they can’t both take leave at the same time)

Long story short…we are coming to the UK at the end of June to give our Brit friends a piece of our mind in person for vexing our Bulgaria plans, visiting the brethren of Gosport, hunting for leprechauns in Ireland,and hitting the Colorado Gizz shows at the end of summer.

@seawolf my favorite genre that Gizz delve into is their thrash metal side. Everything they do is stellar, but I sure love that thrash side of the band.

Infest the Rats’ Nest is a personal favorite album.

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Intersting. Do they line up with classic 80s/90s thrash like Megadeth/Metallica/Anthrax? Or is it a modern spin?

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf id say a mix of both. They def have their signature sound on everything they do.

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle you’ve piqued my interest

[T4920]

@Mizmazzle ahh that sucks but at least you guys will still get to see them and enjoy some time over here!

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 i’d def love to pick your brain on some travel recs at some point.

@IH-GARY we are a huge Stax household. Much obliged for your sharing this, will get hella spins

[IH-GARY]

@mclaincausey Nice one! Cix Bits - Seasons Greetings is my fave!

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey This is awesome to hear. They put on such a good show.

[Tago Mago]

on the radar for next year. saw them live a few times, guessing the original songs is half the fun

[seawolf]

@Tago-Mago This is pretty amazing.

[Tago Mago]

I'm not going to lie, I think their version of Time Bomb is superior

[seawolf]

@Tago-Mago That's what I was just listening to, and I was in awe!

Feb 19 can't come soon enough. Really enjoying the new album. Lopez will probably always be my favourite Opeth drummer, but the new guy fits the sound much better than his predecessor. And Opeth would not sound the same without Mendez on bass, the guy is criminally underrated

[seawolf]

@Tago-Mago I shared this with my brother in law, and he said it sounds like punk polka, and I think that's a pretty amazing description.

Rocking out in car line to some Son Volt today. Damn their first couple albums were so good.

Yes I said rocking out…my kids would be so ashamed

Waxahatchee - Tigers Blood album is in my most listened to this year list. Beautiful songs. Her Tiny Desk set went live this week and is worthy of a view:

Trivia point - That's Jeff Tweedy's son Spencer on the drums!
