A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

@Trouble: The O'Keefe Museum in Santa Fe is only open four days a week and is often sold out early in the day -- The O'Keefe tour here where she lived in Abiquiu also sells out. Make arrangements before the day, if possible. Many people seem to be here for O'Keefe stuff, duh. (I'm writing from the Abiquiu Inn right by the tour building.) More generally, many things in NM seem to be closed on Mondays; watch out for that. Los Alamos has science/nuclear stuff, where the atomic built was invented in WWII. You can see petroglyphs various places, also cliff dwellings, and current pueblo areas maintained by Pueblans -- but sometimes they are open on a given day, sometimes not. Etc!

Woods: Honestly, I never want to see another looper-pedal show again. So many of these over the last year or two, and always the same problems: lack of development, songs ending abruptly when the player hits the "stop" pedal. I think it's a byproduct of COVID, too many people sitting in rooms by themselves, instead of playing music with other people. IMO it's just so limiting and static. I want to see actual live energy when I go to a show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:40am
Handy Haversack:

There's a section of concrete embankment on Newtown Creek (Queens side, just east of Greenpoint Ave. bridge) that is set with weird metal staples or something just under the lip. Swallows nest there every year, so we often can paddle up pretty close and see the babies in the nests (made of mud carried in the swallows' mouths!) while the adults are hunting mosquitoes over the creek.

YB, another COVIDsplanation for it is that the fewer people you have to bring on tour, the better your odds of not losing people/revenue/the tour to COVID. So bands that use full suites in the studio are touring without bass, drums, etc. more often.

He remarked how great it was to connect with musicians in different cities. That's what music is about, for me.

(Also a few of the tedious looper-pedal shows I saw were locals so they don't have the "touring" excuse!).

Sometimes when people don't have a bass player or drummer, it's because they just haven't gotten around to looking, and none of their friends happen to be drummers or bass players.

I bought a looper pedal to mess with, but I never found a use for it. Yeah, sometimes it ends up replacing the the rhythm section, lazily, and I'm mostly a bass player. I don't see any need to replace myself.
