Why does no one ever talk about the random song I just listened to for the first time in over a year and a half? I swear I’m way better at listening to this band than the rest of you

Regardless of how you feel about Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, they are a crucial part of the scene.
More than any other band (shout out tDB for also doing this well) they put other bands on as their openers. The Pigeons have been grinding it out for years and platforming so many popular bands that are now popular.Think of all the bands that have opened for them that now have good followings - Goose, Dogs, Eggy. If they're a newer band and you like them, they've probably opened for Pigeons.
Also, I would like to say that their two guitar, no keys approach is something I'd love to see other bands take a cue from. It's a great sound that sounds new when everyone else takes the one guitar
Found myself coughing in rhythm with A Love Supreme this morning. Anyone know any good records where the Cough is a featured instrument?
Been seeing this band since 2019 and Ben was always my second favorite member after Rick. I have faith but man this sucks
First show after the infamous boreal ridge and it’s fantastic. Check the Row Jimmy and Bird Song
Jam of the year so far IMO
It got forgotten about in the craziness of that night but the Fairfax Tumble with Trey is absolutely excellent. Give it a listen
Miss that band. Anyone know if Cy or any of the other guys are up to anything else? Looked a little bit but didn’t find anything
Today is the 53rd anniversary of one of the most criminally underrated Dark Stars of all time. Give it a listen!
I want to get a ticket for the marathon set at the Greek on 10/2 but resale prices are ridiculous. I’m considering waiting for closer to the show to try to snag some for cheaper but I feel like I saw somewhere that the tickets are nontransferable or something like that. Can anyone confirm? Should I just bite the bullet now? Thanks!
