Random, Spontaneous Thoughts about UM (Part Pee)

I met Kris at the park during covid and he was beyond nice and friendly. Told him I was supposed to be graduating this weekend and he was asking me all about it. Meant a lot to me at the time. Probably my favorite interaction I’ve ever had with a member of a band I like

See, the sad thing about a guy like you is, in 50 years you’re gonna start doin’ some thinkin’ on your own and you’re going to come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life: one, don’t do that, and two, you dropped 150 grand on a fuckin’ education you could have got for a dollar fifty in late charges at the public library!

Sounds like Craig ter 24’ was just a contractual obligation and his surgery was a bird getting stoned with the new-drummer-feel bird. :frowning:

I will say, the Zwang material from the recent shows has me very impressed and it’s fucking cool to hear them jam again and not just go full speed Myers style. Shout out to the linear jam n2 windjammer

Anybody else listening to these new shows on headphones and finding the guitar panning changes really annoying. Sounds like he keeps moving Jake center for “solos” but then kinda forgets to move him back immediately. Pretty distracting

Going to form a cover band and call it Puppet Strings. One set with be Billy songs with a drummer & a UM tinge. The second set will be UM songs done Billy style without a drummer.

Kris left. Get over it.

It has nothing to do with Kris leaving. A band without a drummer is hot garbo to my ears.

I like me some Billy Strings but damn I struggle with the lack of a drummer. I mean, I get the percussive nature of the instrumentation but sometimes…

Go listen to David Grisman Quintet.

Idk what this means, but i struggle without some percussion, being that my hearing loss is very focused on higher pitch sounds.

I can assist you in the class action lawsuit.
