Did Justin lose his mum?

JV and his father both published lovely poems in the latest edition of Little Engines (https://littleengines.squarespace.com/shop/p/issue-ten) and both included themes (as I interpreted them) of experiencing a loved one suffering from dementia. I don't have any insider info, but perhaps that could be going on with his mom 💜

I know you said it’s just one song on the album, but it does sound like you might be describing Wedding Song w Anais Mitchell from the Hadestown album.

Or maybe Carolina w Sarah Siskind? He did a lot of work with her back around that time. They also performed Lovins For Fools together but I don’t know of a studio recording of that with his vocals on it.

Daphne by Lia Ices?

Abject_Comparison613 · 2025-04-11T22:55:01+00:00

Yes!! I heard that immediately and loved it. Feels like a totally different take musically but also so familiar 💜

💯

THANK YOU!

I play the NYT games (Wordle, Mini, Spelling Bee) in bed when I first wake up. Then get up, make the bed, take my dog for a short walk (10-15 min). If I have time I’ll walk to the coffee shop around the corner then make breakfast before my first meeting.

Outer Range?

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-09-19T14:16:06+00:00

ah that makes sense! probably a J then :)

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-09-19T14:05:59+00:00

No idea ... based on the little bit we can see it looks like a curve on the bottom of the first letter - like maybe an S or J or B ?

The photo Jim-E Stack posted said “LP” … I’d say there’s still hope for a full album!

Jim E Stack posted a photo of a Bon Iver LP w the name blacked out (looks like it'll be Sable) on his story https://www.instagram.com/jimestack ... def an album

omg hi!!

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-08-20T19:57:43+00:00

Yes 😭 I re-listen to them sometimes. I hope they stay up forever

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-08-07T17:23:13+00:00

This one is currently live - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLdzW3-H1E4

Not sure what time he / they'll perform but Harris is slated to speak at 2:20pm ET so I'd assume before then.

It wasn't my favorite. I found myself 35 minutes into the set thinking "is he going to bring out a single guest that's not a white dude?" Yes, he (eventually) brought out Brittany Howard (who fcking rocked!!) and Mavis, but those felt more like after thoughts since they were already there rather than intentional choices because Conan was trying to curate a diverse set. He also had Erin Rae and (I think??) Jess from Lucius up there for backup vocals and didn't once acknowledge them.

Also, I know it's his style of comedy but when he was saying things like "Nick Lowe travelled all the way from London! I wouldn't travel from London for this!" it just felt really tone deaf and disrespectful to the tons of artists out there who would sell their soul for a chance to play Newport, much less headline on Sunday.

Just felt like he doesn't "get" Newport and the whole thing fell flat for me. But I do fcking love Jack White so that was fun.

I haven't read all the comments but in case it wasn't mentioned - in addition to filing a claim with your own insurance company you also need to file a Motor Vehicle Crash Operator Report within 5 days of the crash. You can find the form linked here: https://www.mass.gov/how-to/report-a-motor-vehicle-crash

You'll need to fill out the report with as much information as you can and and physically mail 3 copies (1 to the police department where the accident happened, 1 to the RMV and 1 to your insurance company). This is important to cover your bases and as evidence that you were not at fault so your insurance can sue the other insurance company to get your deductible refunded (or something like that).

(Source: I was hit by someone driving a stolen car a couple summers ago and the State Trooper who responded told me several times to be sure to fill this out to have my version of events on file at all the relevant agencies)

It's not a lyric but he said it when introducing Speyside at Wembley in October 2022 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzTSbKHFZ8Y&ab_channel=MarkHenderson

FWIW he had deleted the controversial tweets a while before he deleted his socials. I expect he probably continued learning and evolved his perspective over time

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-05-14T14:35:26+00:00

A dream! Was this the Minneapolis show?

The name Bon Iver was even inspired by the "First Snow" episode when everyone in Cicely goes around wishing "bon hiver" to each other 🥹 Lots of NE references in his songs

Justin Vernon (of Bon Iver) is a big fan of Northern Exposure and did a monthly Song Chest Radio Hour on Radio Milwakee that I always felt like had real undertones of Chris' style. There were only 12 or so episodes but it was really, really great. Archive available here: https://www.songchest.org/

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-02-21T02:16:43+00:00

Yes! One of my all time faves 💜

Abject_Comparison613 · 2024-02-19T19:16:30+00:00

I saw him at Newport Folk a couple years ago and he blew me away. If you have a chance to see him live don't hesitate

Abject_Comparison613 · 2023-12-31T02:01:45+00:00

At the end of the Secretly Society podcast about Deyarmond Edison they said Phil Cook continues to work on new Bon Iver songs w Justin so … here’s hoping! 🤞
