In addition to the correct advice that you shouldn’t read anything about it in advance, I’d strongly recommend not looking at the time during it—at any given moment, I had no idea how close to the end I was, and enjoyed it much more for that.

You Can See Everything is a fucking masterpiece. Do not read/watch/listen to anything about it and see it asap.

These folks, who I have the pleasure of working with, are the smartest campaign polling team out there, and they’ll be giving out free wisdom about the election next Wednesday. It’ll be fascinating for laypeople and politicos alike. I can’t wait.

Two weeks out, where do the midterms stand? Our full campaign polling team breaks it down live at Plus or Minus: The Roundtable, Oct. 21 at 3 PM ET / 12 PM PT. changeresearch.zoom....

In the wake of Cornell, it’s heartening to see this guy’s bandmates stand up to him and quit the band—immediately, too, and presumably at great personal cost. Dudes, be like Campbell, not like the Cornell frat bros.

A Vancouver woman has detailed allegations of sexual assault against Geordie Greep. She and Greep's former keyboardist spoke to Paste about what happened on October 8. READ: www.pastemagazine.com/music/geordi...

I’m very happy to inform everyone that Hood has brought back the old slogan on their trucks. For a couple decades, it’s said “always good, always hood.” glad to see the world returning to equilibrium a little.I

Re last night’s Simple: As a kid, a group of us got to play w/the Philadelphia Orchestra. My teacher said if your violin goes out of tune during the performance, just give it to one of the orchestra violinists and they’ll tune it in 3 seconds. Shame Phish doesn’t have someone who can do that.

A friend shared this video of Dave Harrington appearing to tease First Tube at last night’s Darkside show. Sounds pretty great, and a big surprise from Dave, who I don’t think is a big Phish guy

There should be a 9/11 style memorial to this in Las Vegas. There should be somber services each year commemorating it. The mayor should attend. Jon Stewart should lobby Congress to pass a bill funding the recovery of the workers who were at ground zero that fateful night.

Nikole Hannah-Jones w/ a sobering follow-up on her decision yrs ago to enroll her daughter in a poor, majority-Black public school rather than a wealthier, whiter private school. You leave heartbroken for the kids being failed by this grossly unequal system. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/m...

nytimes.comIn Fighting for Every Black Child, Did I Betray My Own? (Gift Article)A decade ago, I made a decision about my daughter’s education that I hoped would challenge New York City’s separate and unequal school system. Now 16, she thinks I made the wrong choice.

Action items for today: 1. Get tickets for these shows 2. At the shows, remind the band that the west coast still has jamprog fans and they should come play for us 3. Retweet TC’s post so they hang out here more often

Taper’s Choice@taperschoice.bsky.social

We’re pleased as punch to announce a trio of new East Coast shows - including FIVE THEE WELL - a celebration of 5 years of the Choice. TC5 has arrived. All new shows on sale 10am Friday.

This is a masterful album. Eric nailed it below with the RIYLs—lots of Tortoise and Four Tet in here. Highly recommended.

Eric Hirsch@ehirsch.bsky.social

hey everyone I finished the album I’ve been working on for uh far too long! It’s instrumental electronic music, somewhere between Plaid, Tortoise and Four Tet. If you like loud glitchy drums and saw wave synth basslines and probably too many layers of other stuff going on I think you might like it.

🚨BREAKING: Our union of over 12,000 baristas are officially calling for a Starbucks boycott. Read this statement penned by Starbucks workers on why a boycott from ALL customers, allies, and organizations is necessary to fight back against corporate greed:

Same. Despite many Phish fans following me on Twitter, somehow my posts praising Jennifer Dances didn’t get the hundreds of likes they deserved. Actually, the same is true here. Bluesky’s algorithm must also be broken. Which is why I’m starting a new site for ppl w/good opinions on Jennifer Dances

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social

I left Twitter in 2023, when I realized that Elon's changes had made the site useless for me. I had a half million followers, but his new algorithm drove my engagement numbers down to nothing. I wasn't actually reaching anyone. I was just providing cover for Nazis. So I left. You can too. Honest!
