one more thursday night: the final heads happening of the summer is on 9/10 at mama fried, feat. antietam, pretty rag (starring rick brown & sue garner & willie klein) & us sloppy heads. flyer by abraham! #nyc #brooklyn

Hey #NYC transit/train nerds, this might be up your alley - someone at my kid's school made an #MTA subway board game. Here's the kickstarter:

Hey #NYC it's election day! Did you vote yet? Remember, at least around here, primaries are the main elections that matter. By the time you get to the general election, things are pretty much decided. #VoteNY

at the vision fest at abrons arts center, leading off with marshall allen (102?!!) & all-stars including william parker, andrew cyrille, dm hotep, & darius jones, flowing through the outer darkness. then, trae crudup & co. with a powerful milford graves tribute, heartbeat thunder & glitched vocals. #nyc #jazz

there is a "small chance" of a tornado tonight in queens but (if my math is correct) still a larger chance of seeing bob dylan, so tornado chasing i go. #nyc

Do not appreciate being able to see the air. #NYC #Smoke

no tornadoes at forest hills except for bob dylan, the immaculate weirdo himself, shrouded in white hoodie, with the paterson/tariq guitar combo. highlight for me was the dark lowlands of "black rider" (which got the biggest cheer of the night when it started) #nyc

Was hoping this article in the New York Times would be about bats eating mosquitoes but I was wrong. Headline and a single sentence in the article were there to make bats seem like friends (they are, but not because of how many mosquitoes they eat, which is very few). Digital version [follow gift link] has a different headline. #bats #chiroptera #mosquitoes #nyc #newyork #insects #nature #biology #journalism #nytimes https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/18/nyregion/bats-nyc-highline-prospect-park.html?unlocked_article_code=1.zFA.CO8C.VYStaJ_P2guq&smid=url-share

Don't forget to vote #NYC! Democrat primaries are extra important here. #VoteNYC #NYCVotes

at the stone, on night 3 of her residency, yoona kim (on bowed anaeng) leads an #improv trio with joe morris on guitar & chris corsano on drums, drone splatter & fire fragments & occasional dramatic flow. #nyc #jazz

When we eventually #BanCars from #NYC, it will be drivers' own damn fault. Can't believe some of the psychopaths behind the wheel today..

catching up with some recent issues of gunk. #NYC #DIY lives!

tomorrow at mama tried! #nyc #brooklyn https://heads.social/@bourgwick/117038944760898844

fascinating survey of the early lower east side music scene, 1900-1920. deep #nyc history. https://klezmor.im/@carkner/117021352714755930

This is some bullshit. #NYC #MTA

sat on the stoop & mostly listened to people freaking out in the near distance during the last 10 minutes of the game. but besides the bar down the block, truly amazing stillness for a saturday night. nobody walking by, almost no cars. and now, obviously, beautiful fuckin' chaos. #nyc

sunday jams at mama tried: vague plot (soundtracking the haze, dig the new song with vocals), @… (from pdx, making their #nyc debut, atmospheric big-drummed drama with pedal steel), & prison (soot-covered nyc kosmische, 2 keys lineup, upcoming frow show guests…

sweet & noisy matinee at mama tried. greg fox's new project, wadari, drums & noise table & slippery dubby beat chaos. and then still minders, electri-fried #bluegrass zones with tunes by buzz busby & moby grape & more (feat. jr bohannon on pedal steel). #nyc

like paul simon, i too have attempted to mitigate my hearing loss by pointing a speaker directly at my head. enjoyed the "quiet celebration"/"7 psalms" at forest hills very much, though could've been... louder? was maybe most moved when the crowd covered the high note in "me & julio" #nyc

these should be absolutely banned from #nyc & any other town/city with sidewalks & pedestrians. another fromt in the war on cars. https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/117031243158587006
