Song Review(s): Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros feat. the Wolfpack - “Fever” and “Ashes and Glass” - > “Don’t Let Go” -> “Ashes and Glass” (Live, Feb. 10, 2023)

Bob Weir mumbled some unintelligible gibberish before simply muttering: Shit.

It’s proof the Dead man cares about what happens live on stage. And after this brief, charming stumble, Weir pulled it together, and with his Wolf Bros and Wolfpack in tow, subsequently turned in a slinky version of “Fever.”

As the free sample from their Feb. 10 performance/livestream originating in New York unfolded, Weir and company conjured a jazz-club atmosphere with Jeff Chimenti’s rollicking piano, plus muted trumpet and sassy trombone fitting right in to a band that began as a trio.

The 10-piece continued to play as one as it seamlessly threaded the similar-in-melody “Don’t Let Go” into the middle of “Ashes and Glass.” The Wolfpack dominated this arrangement, putting their horns and strings out front. Whether they’re responsible for pulling Weir out of his slow-tempo doldrums is an unknown. But the result is welcome.

more good news from tiktok: they’ve started blocking celebrities.

they’re calling it block party 2024. just blocking and ignoring countless celebrities who havent said shit about palestine. influencers, actors, anyone who went to the met gala, whatever, they’re getting blocked. and people keep talking about how cathartic it is, how good it feels, how they never realized they could DO that. there was some kind of subconscious law against blocking famous people, but it’s broken, and people are LOVING it. and it’s WORKING. a social media/digital advertising coordinator was talking about how ad companies are PANICKING, because they can’t accurately target anymore. so many big influencers, including fucking LIZZO started talking about palestine the MOMENT their follower counts started going down. and the best part? no one is forgiving them. lizzo posted a tiktok asking people to donate to palestinian families, and all the comments just said you’re a multimillionaire. put your money where your mouth is. blocked.

i feel like i’m witnessing the downfall of celebrity culture, right here right now. people are waking up.

Hold me tight and don’t let goooo 🎶

he won

bonus:

palestinians don’t owe you anything

Incompetence. The inability to function in the way society deems fit is fear of nearly half the population. How did I come to this conclusion? Simple. As humans, we are always looking for and scavenging for the secure connection we share with people within ourselves. Validation isn't mandatory, but is always appreciated. You can do it silently or out loud. Even if we choose not to acknowledge it. We, as empathic beasts, enjoy being praised without reservation. That is, as long as it is in some way neutral or positively targeted. But what happens when we can't discover the connection we've been looking for for so long, when we are rejected by society and forced to pursue a route that no one in their right mind wants to take? When we are truly defeated is when we must ask the question: are we really human?

I want you to hold my hand. And I want you to hold it tight. And I need you to promise me that no matter what, you won't let go.

Song Review: Jerry Garcia Band - “Don’t Let Go” (Live, June 18, 1982)

It was always a good idea to hold on tight when the Jerry Garcia Band played “Don’t Let Go.” And the June 18, 1982, version was no exception.

The jazzy and funky 18-minute workout is the final single - following “Valerie” and “After Midnight” - previewing the June 30 arrival of GarciaLive Vol. 20.

All curious improvisation and zero mindless noodling, the main jam rides on Garcia’s guitar, John Kahn’s bass and Bill Kreutzmann’s drums, resulting in a monster built of solid execution of the song proper and just-as-serious exploration of its sonic boundaries.
