Heat Manager has two new songs out today for bandcamp Friday. One about the generational trauma of being a leftist Jew and the other about grieving in Arkansas. Double A-side action. li.sten.to/heatmanager
Happy thanksgiving to everyone w a dead parent and also to all the vegans.
Still thinking about the 7-year-old saying “the A chord is question-y sounding” last night.
Wish I could see Cindy Lee again tonight.

When you’ve been deep in mom-mode for years and missing band practice… reading this thread sure is nice…
Did you even go on summer vacation if your kid didn’t puke in the car 5 minutes before getting home?
Holy shit
Can’t believe it took me until he was 7 to realize the best gift for my son is just printed out lyrics to his fav songs
Couldn’t be more annoyed about missing this tonight.

A graphic of Bernie and Zohran smiling. Text reads “BERNIE ENDORSES ZOHRAN.”
As for so many across this country, Bernie Sanders has been the single most influential political figure in my life.
As Mayor, I will strive to live up to his example by fighting for the working class every day and hopefully make Brooklyn’s own proud.
“Mama… Are ghosts real?”
“What do you think?”
Shakes head no.

Now when the 3-year-old says “put on that music I like so much” she means this, so that’s nice.
For Ep 6 of @pavementband Week on @revpermovie.bsky.social I am joined by actor Michael Esper (@airstreamrally ) who played the lead role (Essem) in the musical Slanted! Enchanted! A Pavement Musical that is featured in the new documentary Pavements.
Not to brag, but last night I dreamed I was at a party with Alf.
The long-awaited @pavementband.bsky.social movie 'Pavements' finally has a release date and a proper trailer
Heat Manager sits well in the hangdog end of Cosmic Americana. Letting the choogle take the wheel, the album hits a groove, rolling out of the confessional cadence for a skid through Americana’s threadbare boogie that embraces it’s aches with grace. bit.ly/4hIEU3S
So fun singing this w Heat Manager last night, even tho I couldn’t bring myself to “get on the mic”
