What about using a drum machine in live performance?
If you don't mind me asking is it because drummers are scarce in your area? I can understand that.
It's kind of that, also I'm a shy person. I suppose I should reach out again.
I learned drums and play them on my recordings.

You heard it here first: Talking Heads and Led Zeppelin are gonna tour together, mark my words.

That's funny, I just read an article about how the Heads are never getting back together.

Both bands have turned down mighty sums to re-unite. (Or at least Robert Plant did.)
I think there's something cool about that in this day and age.
People seem to think money can justify absolutely everything/anything.
Maybe refraining from flushing your life's work down the money toilet is worth more than cash.

Reading Thurston's silly biography. At one point he makes the point that the first wave of Punk (Television, Patti Smith, Stooges, Ramones, Richard Hell, Talking Heads, Dead Boys) were all pretty much into their 30's by 1980. This makes them contemporaries of the classic rock bands. Debbie Harry is actually older than Robert Plant. Perhaps obvious, but never really thought about it that way, considering how "different" they sounded, the focus on Punk as youth culture.

I’m sick of the rain. Jeff if you’re reading this, when we bought your house I wish you told me about the drainage problems. Maybe you never knew because it had been a drought for 65 million years.

I didn’t care for “Fast Car” when it was an inescapable hit in the late 80s. It’s grown on me since.
The new country cover, whatever.
The Grammys suck.
. . . but the performance of “Fast Car” from the Grammys hit me right in the chest.
It seems like something the RIAA cooked up cynically, and some of the audience reactions are a little too “I am SO MOVED BY THIS,” but what happened on stage just seemed completely free of cynicism.

Yeah, I was never a fan of the song but it has grown on me a little recently. Won't change it if it comes on.
Also liked the Grammy performance.
