    Bad Finger Boogie

    Yeah it's unfortunate, so often it's something people won't think about or consider at all, but it's actually alarmingly common.

    In I believe late 2014 my grandfather (who was 87 at the time) was in an aged care facility, they had some people in a separate wing that were like special cases, violent dementia and so on. One day some guy from the other wing got out, just wandered into my grandpa's room out of the blue and beat the s*** out of him while he was in the bed the whole time with no way to fight back.

    Luckily he was able to make a full recovery from it and kept going strong for another year, but many others at that age aren't that lucky.

    I pray and feel for you fam

  • Thought I would share the Apple
    Music description

    "I knew this day was coming," Rivers Cuomo tells Apple Music. "I've always been such a fan of classical music and opera. And yet, I feel like it's overdue, like I just kind of got stuck in this pattern of, 'Okay, we're a rock band. This is what we do. We don't want to get soft too soon.' But really getting encouragement from producer Jake Sinclair, and then just a light went off like, 'Oh, this is going to be great.'" After delaying the release of their long-promised shred opus Van Weezer, Weezer instead dove into OK Human, a 12-track change of pace that features a 38-piece orchestra, no click tracks, no computers, and, most surprisingly, no electric guitar. And the tonal shift matched the pandemic neuroses that fuelled Cuomo's lyric writing. "I'm so anxious about looking around my house and seeing, okay, there's one child on that device, there's the other child on that device, my wife's over there on that device," Cuomo says. "Everyone's looking in a different direction at a different device, and that's the way things are going. Nothing I can do about it, but I just can't help but feel a sense of loss and anxiety about it."

    Those worries take centre stage on whimsical tracks like "All My Favorite Songs," "Playing My Piano," and "Screens," while the sprawling orchestration adds drama to "Numbers" and "Bird With a Broken Wing" as Cuomo stares down his inadequacies. "I was just feeling pretty irrelevant and passed over and past my prime," says the 50-year-old singer-songwriter. "I was feeling pretty sorry for myself." It's not all dark clouds, however—Weezer fashions a sliver of optimism with the triumphant "Here Comes the Rain" and luscious closer "La Brea Tar Pits." "Hearing it back for the first time with the orchestra, it's like, yeah, those are the chords I wrote, and that's the melody I wrote," Cuomo says. "But man, it's like seeing in three dimensions for the first time or something. It's just gorgeous. And I can't believe we haven't done it before."

    Bad Finger Boogie

    dunno if anyone answered you yet ( @Ithaka probably saw this somewhere by now) but basically Rivers father Frank is in his 70s now, sometime in the last few years he was brutally beaten while walking home from work, now he's no longer able to eat solid foods and the beating is causing him gradual brain damage so piece by piece he's losing cognitive abilities

    Dead Roses features lyrics along the lines of "they beat you till you begged to live, you were mine and you were always mine"
