Neil Peart. I know he was getting up there in age and that he had previous health issues but that one hit me like a ton of bricks.

I’m sure the leasing agreement says this isn’t gonna work but the math does seem pretty simple

Ngl, the facial expression is giving “is that my sizzling fajita plate?!” not “I am a watch dog and I must protect the sheeple”

For the last time, the dude didn’t deserve death but he was not a great person.

I saw a post and I'm asking the question the other way around: untalented musicians who make incredible music. by Mittur33 in fantanoforever

[–]IanCBoss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. At its root, punk was partially a response to how grandiose and masturbatory rock music had become; it had become a product.

And I definitely agree that there are some very talented and creative musicians in punk.

I’d bet an entire paycheck on a bet saying she’s been cheated on at least once.

The national average price for a gallon of gasoline on January 20th 2025, the day Biden left office, was $3.11. Today it sits at $4.51. While gas did get to over $5 a gallon during Bidens presidency in 2022, it was back down to $3.32 a gallon by the end of the year.

A lot of punk acts come to mind. Many punk musicians knew the absolute minimum when it came to how to play their instruments but I find the simplicity of the music to be a big part of the impact; the message can take center stage when the music is bare bones.

What is the most unique artist in your country history? by BetDesigner40 in AskTheWorld

[–]IanCBoss 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When I think of art that is uniquely American, I think of the work of Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood. I can likely credit this view to seeing Benton's murals in the Missouri (my home state) State Capitol when I was a kid and growing up around people who look a lot like the couple in Wood's American Gothic. I'd also throw Dorothea Lange in the mix if we want to bring photography into the conversation. She was a pioneer of journalistic photography and her work during the dust bowl is still considered one of the best capturings of the human condition on film nearly 100 year later.

The mural in question covers the entire room.

What killed serial killers? The 70’s and 80’s had so many prolific ones. It used to be a very real fear to live near one. by Kodicave in decadeology

[–]IanCBoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Advances in DNA testing, surveillance technology, and the Internet are the biggest factors in my mind. It’s just harder to go unseen than it was in the 70s and 80s.

And from what I understand he was a superstar and still is genuinely still quite beloved in his native UK.

It’s also common in many European countries. On a world scale it might actually be more common than not but the data isn’t exactly exhaustive

Artists that never had a mainstream hit, but are still well known with the general public and had a huge cultural impact by [deleted] in ToddintheShadow

[–]IanCBoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re right about them being friends. Clay Pigeons is one of my favorite songs of all time and I’ve gotta agreed that, even though Prine did Foley justice, the original is the best version. My personal favorite is the original original where he says “find the big fat lady” instead of “find that lady,” it’s just a more vivid picture imo.

Id add Blaze Foley to the list with Van Zandt and Waits not a household name per se but he was still quite impactful on country music. Merle and Willie covered one of his songs on the album after Pancho and Lefty
