@jvw @benda Oh, and you’re asking about my music too? While it isn’t tenor-centric, my new album is all over the place on every music streamer there is. If you wanted to give it a spin, you could listen either on Spotify (I know, but I need all the audience I can muster) or BandCamp has the album info more front and center. Just search my name or the album title Leaving Can’t Be Wrong.

My website adammoemusic.com has some solo stuff, so the tenor is right out front.

@jvw @benda The original tenors were actually banjo necks attached to small guitar bodies as I understand it. So they are WAY too narrow for me, but mostly because of my terrible mechanics. I’m pretty heavy on my left hand, and continually pulled the E off the edge of the board. So I had my guy base the width off my bari uke and it works like a charm.

As for tuning, I use d g b e - just a guitar sans two bass strings. Works for me.

@MissConstrue @arbres @Ask_aubry I know it’s not the same, but there were quite a lot of legal things last time I was in Austin - Delta 9 and the like. But I hear you on the pain meds. It’s why my wife made the change. She was afraid that rather than weening off (of a very small daily dose) someone would force her to go cold turkey. Every doctor visit became an inquisition, not because of her behavior but because of others. It was a stupid situation.

Best of luck, though!

@MissConstrue @arbres @Ask_aubry Have you tried medicinal marijuana? My wife stopped opioids and replaced them with weed, and it seems to be at least comparable.

Five. He’s signed five bills. The rest is noise. #uspol #fight #fascism

@benda Hey! Not sure there are a lot of "go-to" tenor recordings. The cats in the 50s used them a lot -- guys like Scatman Crothers and the like. Mostly I just play one because it's what I can do. I am a fiddle player, and when I ended my former music project during the 2020 shutdown, I needed to find a way to play so I could sing. Having learned strumming instruments by playing the uke, my muscle memory was such that I worried about those other two strings getting in the way. So I had a special tenor with a wider neck built for me and started woodshedding until I could confidently play out. Been doing it for four years now, and I'm not going back.

@lauren So this is the end, right? Seems like journalism should be checking on stuff before printing it?

@joyousjoyness I love the heck out of these.

@TheConversationUS That huge shaded bit in Northern Minnesota? That's where I live. And folks are already polishing up the chains they will use to lock themselves to heavy equipment and/or the white pines.

@Daojoan And so many are finding out that they are, in fact, affected.

I just realized that the only people who are saying #AI is the way of the future are people who have never had, or are afraid of, original ideas.

Friends, if you have to wear a mask to hide your identity while performing your job duties, you're probably doing something nefarious. Just think, for a minute, about what kind of people have to hide their faces. The vast majority are hiding because they know they are doing something wrong. Also, rip those masks off their stupid faces whenever you get a chance. The world needs to see these cowards. #ICE #fightfascism

Thought some of you might be interested in this review of my new album. I know I'm interested in sharing it!

Hey, #media. Could you please stop reporting on these decrees he signs as if they were laws? #uspol

@Em0nM4stodon @ZenHeathen Hold on. Is this an episode of Welcome to Nightvale or something? Each sentence got incrementally stranger and more unsettling.

@Em0nM4stodon I have clearly missed a piece of news. I stand by the choice to nap, but now I need to do some digging.

Hate to be this brash, but if a person wearing a mask refuses to show you why they are trying to shove you in an unmarked van, you have every right to defend yourself. Those thugs need to feel fear EVERY TIME they consider doing what they are doing. #ice

@ruralgloom I always thought it was coral.

@cwebber Yep. Phones and AI are making kids stupid. I’ve seen it in classes. I even had some kids gambling online during a class I was subbing for. It’s bad.

It's BandCamp Friday, folks - the day that BandCamp does not take a cut of sales! It'd be a great day to buy Leaving Can't Be Wrong for yourself and your friends! And just for fun, and to increase reach, I'd sure appreciate a boost on this little call to action! Let's see what kind of reach this Mastodon thingy can build!
