Busy Times Up in Toon Town
Thin Lizzy - Ballad of a Hard Man
Hello internet pals of music. An update, along with a song that really has nothing to do with the update, and also needs no introduction.
Your favorite newsletter of all-time, the event horizon of subscriber-based music recommendations of unparalleled quality, the Codex Seraphinianus of music-focused Susbtacks, is taking a momentary pause.
Really, this is not the end, nor is it the Great Reset (although I’d love to find an easy to use alternative to Substack, whose model is way less of what I thought it to be when I first discovered it, and is becoming more and more a base for some bad-faith intellectuals and shady journalists to both enrich themselves and Substack’s financiers off the backs of the little people who initially boosted this platform and create the visibility to do so). Instead, I’m sparing you the possibility of lesser inspired dispatches until I can settle back in to giving you all the greatness of my unquenchable love of great music (and unedited ramblings).
But we’ll return as quickly as we can to our affair, I promise. Until then, I’ll probably still be on my bullshit over on Twitter, where I can just post a song and not have to be clever, if you’re so inclined. Otherwise, enjoy the break and you’ll be hearing from me soon.
