The best moment is not when the Bass player starts at 1:40, he holds out in the best manner I’ve seen in 2005 live … drumming was insane!

@Aetas this has been on repeat recently! Solid throwback

[Mizmazzle]

I’ve know the name for so many years but never took the time to look this direction more. Nor did I know the Royal Trux connection. I’m gonna need to go deep on this particular rabbit hole:

They’re on tour with Dinosaur Jr right now but I don’t feel like driving to DC and I’ve seen them both. Excited for new music.

@Mizmazzle oh man that brings me back to high school. This collab with RL Burnside (saw him many times including a Panic opener in Jackson MS in 2001) is also worth listening to repeatedly.

New NIN:

I’m expecting good things from the new Tron. A new NIN record is the cherry on top.

@Giles "chicken dinner" quote of that situation

@Giles hilarious!! As I read this post my wife simultaneously came across the same story on her phone giving this post all the more scandalous details haha

Amazing that people can loose their jobs for having an affair (but not for being exploitative assholes).

[Mizmazzle]

@endo so true. No chance of getting fired for being shit at your job…only for what public perception might be.

[goosehd]

It is easy to write policies on office relationships and to discipline when necessary. Workplace performance has so many issues enforcing especially when it comes to documented training, workplace standards, expectations, etc.

Low hanging fruit to boot him for the relationship...

[Matt]

They should both be fired for liking Coldplay.
