Survivor 49
the "name 1 family member of each jury member" question was so stupid. why did they vote out kristina to begin with? she was never going to win. sage's big reveal that she was in the military was not quite the bomb she thought it would be. the whole season was so bad. now they've got mr. beast, billie eilish idol, and jimmy falon on season 50? probst has lost his damn mind.

Shameful guilty pleasures
when that "i love the cocaine" song came out i thought it was the black crowes. had that album back in the day and discovered it again last year while going through old cd's. there are a couple decent songs but it's largely pretty bad.

Drozd has left the building
they haven't made any new music worth a shit in a long time. now that the only creative force in the band is gone i guess this really cements their status as a nostalgia act. wayne coyne seemed to have suffered some kind of mental break in the 2010's that he never came back from.

Texas BBQ
made the annual trip to stiles switch last night for their 12 days of meat celebration. special was the ola mailman sandwich..chopped brisket and sausage with cheese sauce and mustard sauce on an olamaie biscuit. the sandwich was serviceable but certainly not worth $19, the biscuit added nothing to the experience. it came with tabasco buttermilk fries that had no discernible tabasco flavor...tasted like regular fries to me. 2 meat plate with jalapeno cheddar sausage and pork ribs was excellent. i need to try their wings, they looked good.

went to the saxon pub on saturday night to see the damn torpedoes do a deep cuts acoustic tom petty set. hadn't been to the saxon pub in forever, but it's the exact same as it ever was. they were doing 4 separately ticketed shows on saturday 4:00 doors cover band 6:00 monte montgomery 8:00 tom petty cover band 10:00 eric tessmer. kicking people out between each show. glad they've found a way to make some money and stay where they are...but holy shit it was like a retirement home in there. tom petty set was alright, didn't love their song selection.

Survivor 49
obviously will watch season 50 but absolutely done with this show after that. the past several seasons have been really bad. probst needs to go.

i had a very difference experience...saw octopus project and luna at paramount on friday. been a while since i've seen octopus project, they're always entertaining...thought they were way better than luna. luna had zero energy, zero stage presence, very lackluster performance. they sounded fine, they were just very boring. there were a couple of attempts to get the crowd standing up but it didn't happen, hard to sleep standing up i suppose.

pinthouse is doing their $5 back on a $20 gift card thing again, time to stock up. also, the jackie treehorn at pinthouse is fucking delicious. bourbon barrel aged milk stout with coconut, vanilla, and sea salt. definitely a dessert beer.

loved qotsa last night. the stripped down/reimagined versions of songs with strings and horns were great. lounge singer josh really worked the room. was definitely a different qotsa experience, now give me the rock again next tour.

Survivor 49
what a boring season. the fact that any of these people are going to be on season 50 is sad. they need to go back to the old pre-covid format, it was so much better.

New Austin Music
yes they do them outdoors and it's a giant stage. comparable to radio east.
