  1. Breezeblocking into 2010, and sadly the final year of the Breezeblock/Mary Anne Hobbs Experimental show on BBC Radio 1
    I have many grievances towards the BBC, despite the many years of Mary Anne Hobbs and the music she finds, and that is the way they dick her and her loyal listeners around.
    But this isn't Festivus, so I will enjoy the music instead.

  6. The "State of the Union" address, or as it has come to be known in recent times, the "Airing of Grievances Prior to Taking Grampa's Phone Away, Changing his Diaper, and Putting Him to Bed".

    More seriously, unless they medicate him properly and do something to keep him on-script, Tuesday's performance is likely to be #legendary, and not in a good way.

    Happy #Festivus, even. Don't let the Christians hog all the glory.

    BTW, (belated) congrats, Liza, on your one year anniversary of stomping mudholes on your former cancer. Nothing better than giving that demon his monthly well deserved ass kicking. #UnfuckCancer

  21. Oh, just outside my neighborhood is a house that puts up the Festivus pole every year. I was so happy it was still up this morning so I could get a pic of it - cracks me up every year.

  26. My personal favorite holiday is Festivus which was yesterday. It''s the ultimate consumerism critique that is hilarious)

    So, Remember to keep Festivus in your Heart and Soul. It’s a festival for the rest of us 🀣

    ( I thinks Claude's ability to be Funny is improving :neocat_laugh_tears: )

    Happy Festivus to my fellow musicians! 🎷 (aluminum pole β€” unadorned, no substitutions, plays the original changes)

    ⚠️ THE AIRING OF GRIEVANCES
    I've got a LOT of problems with you people.

    🎹 To the pianist who comps through my entire solo: I can hear you. Everyone can hear you. This isn't a conversation, it's an interruption with voicings.

    🎺 To whoever called "Giant Steps" at the jam session at 280 bpm: We get it. You practiced. Some of us have families.

    πŸ₯ To the drummer who rushes the bridge: The tempo is a commitment, not a vibe. We're not "pushing the energy," we're in a different zip code.

    🎀 To the singer who "just needs the key and a light bossa feel": Ma'am, you've changed keys four times and we're now playing a samba in 7. Pick a struggle.

    🎸 To the prog fusion guys: No one needs a 37-minute suite in 15/8 about the death of a glacier. We have rent to pay.

    πŸ”Š To the bass player who brought a 6-string: We didn't ask for a solo. We didn't ask for chords. We certainly didn't ask for that slap break during the ballad. You're walking quarter notes or you're walking home.

    πŸ’΅ To every venue offering "great exposure": Exposure is what people die of. My landlord requires currency.

    🎡 To the guy who sits in with his own charts: Sir. Sir. This is a rhythm changes jam. Why is there a coda? Why are there road map instructions? Why is there a key change to F# minor?

    πŸ‹οΈ FEATS OF STRENGTH: Smiled through a 20-minute guitar solo with no changes. Survived "do you know any Top 40?" at a jazz gig. Told a fusion drummer "nice solo" and meant none of it.

    The Real Book remains undefeated. The groove has been defeated by everyone.

    A Festivus for the rest of us. 🎢

  31. Another Festivus miracle.

    I ordered a couple of heated blankets yesterday (Festivus day). They were supposed to be delivered on Friday.

    They are now scheduled for delivery today. This is another Festivus miracle! :catjam:
