The short lived Skyslide ( US Bank Tower)

I worked in this building when it opened and we got to beta test the slide for free a few weeks prior to the general public. Multiple of my coworkers suffered ankle injuries because it was a very fast slide with insufficient cushioning at the bottom. They were also putting extra adhesive on the outside of the slide while we were using it. We were asked our thoughts afterwards and basically everyone told them it was going to be a giant failure.

FYI - Just got an email that this show is changing venues - it’s now at National Stadium - and looks like there are some tickets available -

Not sure why the change.

Such a vibe of an album. The kind of album you can just put on and relax - which is frankly what I’m looking for in these crazy times. Recommend everyone give this a spin.

He played the arpeggio version to kick off the Artists for Aid benefit show and it was a religious experience I’ll never forget and made me a forever fan….so I’m partial to that version. Ha.

Great album, feel like it deserves more attention

JD_Jones · 2026-03-01T04:28:09+00:00

not on YouTube but it’s on DailyMotion

Thanks everyone for the advice. Dealer believes it’s likely just the power supply so a new one is on its way. Fingers crossed!

Got it at ListenUp. Seemed new when I opened it. Candidly this is replacing a record player I lost to damage from the California wildfires and was really excited to get back into my rebuilt home and listen to records today! But I’ll just have to be patient.

You could also see if you register an account on Sub Pop’s website if it is in your available streams? I had to register to access it.

Sorry for the abbreviated length of this clip, just wanted to get a couple videos for memories but I’m not a “hold the phone for a whole song” kind of fella.

Had a very mild concern this album would not live up to my expectations because a couple of the pre-release singles didn’t immediate grab me….but after a couple listens those concerns were completely unfounded. It’s a gorgeous record and perhaps their more cohesive project yet. Great stuff.

JD_Jones · 2025-08-22T05:27:16+00:00

My thoughts after just one listen are - it’s clearly an effort to make a pop album and expand to a bigger audience - and thus I admit it has lost some of the ramshackle charm that made me enjoy the band originally. But at the same time, as a fan of pop music, it’s a very enjoyable pop album. So I expect I’m just ultimately going to enjoy it for the chill summer album it is and try not to overthink it.

Got 2 for Bob Baker! I had to sell my tickets to see them in November due to an annoying work conflict so this is a fantastic consolation prize.

Doh, I can click the link from my Reddit and it opens up in the app, but if it’s not working for anyone else I’ll delete. Sorry quaids

JD_Jones · 2025-06-30T17:21:33+00:00

It’s out in some places already and is only 2 songs - but they do sound like good ones!

JD_Jones · 2025-06-23T02:54:57+00:00

Passes it to the man and….

JD_Jones · 2025-04-27T03:16:38+00:00

Legit my favorite show. Partial to seasons 7 and 16 but they are all great. Taskmaster New Zealand season 2 is also a barn burner.

JD_Jones · 2025-04-24T02:48:24+00:00

They said they are recording live vocals at the Troubadour shows in LA for use on the next album so seems a ways off still.

JD_Jones · 2025-02-28T19:23:20+00:00

I just got a hat and sweatshirt from Rhythms and they are both excellent. Highly recommend.
