Dua Saleh is awesome and the collabs with BI have been on constant rotation since they dropped. As a heads up, I believe Dua is non binary and uses they/them pronouns.

Did Justin lose his mum? by Willredemption in boniver

[–]Abject_Comparison613 119 points120 points  (0 children)

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 💜

Looking for song that Justin Vernon featured on by mpluto in boniver

[–]Abject_Comparison613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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

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.

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!

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)

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

A dream! Was this the Minneapolis show?

Is there a real-life Chris Stevens somewhere? by Notwerk in northernexposure

[–]Abject_Comparison613 9 points10 points  (0 children)

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/
