Handy Haversack:

Julie, after you played Drivin' N Cryin' by my request, I idly wondered whether I had missed any DNC releases over the years. Which was quickly followed by "DNC has a website? DNC has a webstore?!" and then a large envelope making its way north. Both T-shirt and beer koozie are Waffle House-themed, so I consider this a win on every front.

I have a suggestion for a bonus hour, I was thinking about Sheila B's special where she played music released by women when they were over 50. It would be interesting to hear something like that with your taste in music! Wouldn't have to be only women, obv whatever you want :)

Avatar 4:31pm
Honeybear:

In NYC it was easy to celebrate - the whole city (Manhattan anyway) was basically one big party
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member 4:31pm
Handy Haversack:

I was pretty much confined to quarters, Cha Cha, but Kate was on her way to run a people's theater group in a park when the race was called, and that park turned into a giant party. Very little people's theater was accomplished, but there's always next week.

I was in a rest area when the Biden announcement was made. Then I went that night to my bros. Who voted for Trump. So, no celebration por moi. But I did drive 150 miles and sleep in parking lots, but FL still failed us. At least minimum wage is being raised.

Avatar 4:50pm
Honeybear:

"I've been dissed and treated as an outsider for being (midwestern/southern, high-school educated, downsized / underemployed, or even gay/non-white). Then this guy Trump comes along, who's also an 'outsider' of sorts. Therefore, he 'gets' me and feels my pain."
  4:51pm
northguineahills:

@Honeybear: he was drunk and mad that night, but yes, he has no problem w/ the outcome (his twin was much more level-headed). They are socially liberal but fiscally conservative. Outside of an older cousins, I’m the only non-GOPer in the family.

I also went home early on Sat nite (as I do most nites - primarily to limit my virus exposure; also because there's just not that much to do in NYC these days after hours, except the usual outdoor binge-drinking). As things went on, it was kind of like any other night...
Avatar 🦇 Swag For Life Member 4:56pm
Handy Haversack:

@4:38 Cha Cha: There might be! I get really scarted when I hear people here saying that now things can go back to "normal" or "the way it was" -- since the way it was was surveillance and extractive capitalism run wild and unchecked official violence against people of color. The status quo is evil. Hopefully enough people understand that now the REAL work begins.

i agree Handy. This is a step in the right direction but the status quo was crap. (I was called a debbie downer for saying that on Saturday). I'm determined to do whatever work necessary
  4:57pm
Dean:

My politics are, for lack of a better word, meta. I remain very, very afraid about the future, maybe more so now that people with competence will be at the helm. I do not invest energy in the symbolic virtues of our leaders. In fact, I am skeptical of leadership per se. Celebrate, sure, but stay wary and highly critical of not the person, but the office.

since you mentioned memories associated to music, I can still remember 11 year old me taping the series "Live at the Beeb" off Finnish radio to rather horrible Fuji tapes and of course the tape ended during this Floyd instrumental, Murderotic Woman, and I quickly had to turn over the tape, furious at missing a segment of the track.., so yes, even at a young age I was a music nerd.

I am very glad that people who have been feeling physically and existentially threatened -- personally, and not just in general -- by the full-throated racist invective spewed by the soon-to-be-former pres are feeling relief and safety and joy.

Debbie Downer Cha Cha 2000:

even if our current female-led, slightly more left-wing government is well, a more progressive one and so on, I am just scared what will follow... True Finns (a right-wing populist party) came so close winning instead of social democrats on the last parliament election, so I would not be surprised if they won next time, to be followed by a much worse government.

Among the "some people" who so think, the founding fathers, for better or worse. For a good time, read the notes from the constitutional conventions.

We can blame the internet, but I don't think we're all that divided. Division makes for good news. Proscriptions against talk about religion or politics are ancient! I also don't think our federal government is all that divided. There's a ton of bipartisan work getting done, but again, doesn't make the headlines.

I do blame the internet for: (1) favoring superficiality / "meme-driven" communication (2) making it easy for people (myself included) to "self-isolate" in a bubble of news sources they prefer / trust (3) an inherent tendency to magnify perceived slights (and outright insults) due to the simple lack of shared physical presence and spontaneity

Unity doesn't happen at the national level. To some extent, that's a feature, not a bug. Unity belongs in the politics that is local. And, per our feminist forerunners, personal.
Avatar 5:24pm

There was plenty of national unity during WW II and just after 9-11. It is possible. Local unity might be harder because different regions often think differently from each other.

Bandcamp has standards for the file type and quality of the uploads -- you can't just toss MP3s on there. So ... I can see variation in volume happening among different artists, but I don't think we're being sold a bill of goods.

@ Julie yes, a lot of those singles that she put up for preview have gone. Dark Branches in Rain, You Are Sleep Walking, the original version of Strange Buildings...and many more.

I do hope there are not that many mp3's or other lossy files sold as lossless (wav, flac etc.) - that does happen maybe at some fraudster sites, but I hope the artists check the audio before uploading to bandcamp. That said, I don't mind my regular dose of lo-fi, when intentional of course.

Also hate it when an artist will put a track up on Bandcamp but then won't make it available for purchase because it was a demo, previously unreleased, etc.

David Vanian from The Damned had a project called the Phantom Chords and their first album which I thought was nice remains unreleased by Polydor as an acetate. A shame when good music is held hostage and in danger of disappearing forever.

I'll share here as I've shared more than once on a WFMU comment board that Patricia Morrison, one-time bass player for SoM and current spouse of Dave Vanian, mentioned upstream, used to drop by the record store where I worked in the late '70s. I, in turn, used to swing by the cosmetics counter at a department store in town where she worked. She was playing at the time with The Bags. Great band, really nice young lady.

@6:43 Julie: then again the first one is also very different to what they were known for, though obviously without the 80s cheesiness.
  6:46pm
Dean:

Girl punk, yes, inasmuch as Alice and Pat teamed up with Craig and Rob (whose ex-wife I used to ride home with from work on the bus). They were killer.

By ...And Then There Were Three I was wearying of Collins-only Genesis, though I have the double live album they did around this time, and I only ever saw them live without Gabriel. I'm a big Lamb and Selling England fan, but also of the stuff from the beginning. Buddy of mine had a record store whose motto was Selling Records by the Pound.

Patricia did appear with the Damned, though, didn't she?
