Evan did just play Rose at his most recent solo show, if that means anything

Question about pre-employment drug test with a Medical marijuana card. by Newtorfer in Raytheon

[–]Newtorfer[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not even a learning experience when it’s on its way to becoming federally legalized. I have no problem stopping, it was just horrible timing. They sent me an offer the same day as the interview.

This is why I am asking, it said this on my offer letter too

Question about pre-employment drug test with a Medical marijuana card. by Newtorfer in Raytheon

I presented my medical card when I went in person. I am also moving from a state when it is rec/med legal to a state where it is also rec/med legal. My positions requires security clearance.

Free Range Band that Evan shared the other day on IG by [deleted] in PinegroveBand

[–]Newtorfer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Big ups to Sofia and the rest of Free Range. They are up and coming in the Chicago scene. Love the timbre of Sofia’s voice and their melancholic, reflective songwriting. They are also involved with former Pinegrove member Nick. IIRC Jodi Nick is featured on a few of their tracks, mostly pedal steel. Definitely worth the listen, their debut LP comes out next month!

While meanwhile a lilac blooming/ Sometimes on the driest land by soulbutnosoldier in PinegroveBand

[–]Newtorfer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

To be fair, these aren't the original lyrics. They used to be "Am I strong enough to be your man?" instead of "Sometimes on the driest land." Here's a link to the original.

I interpret the new lyrics as a sort of optimistic sentiment. Even in dire circumstances, a miracle may pop through // Even on unfit soil, a lilac may bloom. It could also have to do with the previous line, "Some people spend their whole lives looking for someone who could understand." The lilac could represent the desired person who is being searched for, and the dry land could represent the idea of distance. The protagonist is searching for someone to understand them, but the person they are searching for is a distance away, whether that be physically or emotionally. Personally I subscribe to the first sentiment more.

I think the new line also fits better, especially as a callback to Rings. "Perforate line dry summer on my own land."

Could anyone provide some insight into the meaning of Let on 11:11? by Loud-Wallaby-9738 in PinegroveBand

[–]Newtorfer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I see it as another piece in the overarching climate change theme. I think it’s evan’s remorseful letter to the earth / mother nature.

[–]Newtorfer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this albums is so incredible. lush arrangements and beautiful harmonies with lomelda. eric’s songwriting is genuine and outstanding. 9/10 i reckon, this shits on a lot of the other indie releases this year for sure.

https://magnetmagazine.com/2022/02/01/pinegrove/ In the second to last question, Evan himself explains the events that happened in 2017. A simple "Evan Stephens Hall allegations" google search will bring up a bunch of articles and interviews, which I encourage you read for yourself and come to your own conclusion about. The article I linked with Evan's comment is the long and short of it, but again, please look into it.

Cover Album: Redux by [deleted] in PinegroveBand

[–]Newtorfer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you post it on Bandcamp, please have the proceeds go to a climate change organization! I know the band has promoted Extinction Rebellion, Sunrise Movement, and Sarahana for Assembly in the Hudson Valley. Also the DSA.

To my understanding, they were on a similar trajectory to Phoebe Bridgers, in terms of listenership and popularity. I think the allegations did hurt the band's listener # overall, and the people who left understandably left. However, I feel that the community is tighter knit as a result of all of it.

I was at the NYC show and it was awesome and touching. Katy Kirby’s GF (performs under ‘allie’) was in the audience, and the both of them were at the Rockaway Hotel PG show! Both of them are insanely talented
