Saturday Weirdness: Moon Hooch, NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Music • Views: 43,447

YouTube

People ask me all the time to name my favorite Tiny Desk Concert. It’s my desk and I’ve seen almost all of the nearly 400 concerts up close. So you’d think this would be easy. Moon Hooch have made it a lot easier.

Up there with the ear-shaking voice of Adele, the desk dancing of Gogol Bordello, the stripped down version of Phoenix — not to mention magic moments with Alt-J, Angel Olsen and Lucius and more — Moon Hooch blew me away with just two saxes and a drummer. Their music is a mix of the best jazz, EDM and rock have to offer. It’s out there, it’s danceable and you may find yourself feeling a sense of reckless abandon!

The band is saxophonists Mike Wilbur and Wenzl McGowen, and drummer James Muschler. They all studied in New York at the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music, and every single moment of every song I’ve ever seen them perform has been full throttle. They call their music “cave music,” taking the best elements of electronica — the brutal stops, starts and shifts — and performing those unnaturally precise hairpin turns organically by blowing on horns and banging on drums. This for the boldness in all of us. Embrace Moon Hooch. —BOB BOILEN

Those guys are out there. When you posted ‘EWI,’ I thought maybe that was the fringe of their material.

Now it seems more like the single.

OK, I am probably heading into tinfoil territory but something just occurred to me.

Trump started up with the “this election will be Brexit X10” around the same time as Comey’s Clinton email bullshit started and around the same time he started bring Nigel Farage on the campaign trail.
I am now wondering how much Russian influence was a part of the Brexit vote to undermine the EU.

As I said…I’m heading into tinfoil territory right now and I do not like it one bit.

This is the theme for next week in MN. I had a work meeting near Lutsen MN cancelled and now I’m glad. I checked WeatherUnderground and the high for the day of the meeting (at an unheated building) is forecast to be -1 F.

That is definitely not tinfoil territory; given what we know or suspect already about how Putin & Co. have and are trying to sow electoral chaos here and (currently) in Germany, it wouldn’t surprise me if the Russians gave material support to the pro-Brexit forces.

Look at it: America, Britain, Germany, all being distracted from external threats because of major domestic electoral shenanigans (and all are NATO members). It’s Putin’s wet dream come true.

I’ve spent the day unfriending Busters and Jill Shills on Facebook as well as blocking them on Twitter. Am utterly amazed at how they are lining up with Republicans to denounce these news reports about Putin manipulating the election. Every last one of them believe these are Clinton falsifications.

I believe folks are correct that the political spectrum is shaped like a circle and there is a point where extreme left fuses with extreme right!

I don’t think that’s Tinfoil hat territory at all. The Russians had a lot to gain by Breexit succeeding and Trump winning. What’s bothering me is how many people seem to just accept this and treat Trump as normal.

I don’t believe you’re anywhere near tinfoil territory! Putin figured the best way to make sure that nobody checks his territorial advances is to destabilize states that could stand in his way. And something tells me that Putin and his pals are just sitting on an awful lot of documents gleaned from GOP servers that they’re using to blackmail a lot of Republicans right now!

I’ve not totally donned a cap yet, but I am admiring of the flattering reflective qualities of foil! Sometimes the dots actually connect.

(Hey, I’m still mulling over whether there’s a connection between Nikki Haley being appointed UN Ambassador and Trump helping Boeing keep unions out of South Carolina—with his little tweet fight about AF1 as cover.)

If it’s true and the entire GOP - or at least the majority of it - is compromised, then Putin will have accomplished what the USSR always wanted to do, and he’ll have done it without firing a single shot.

And I guess we can think of the blackmail of the GOP as Putin’s version of a non-disclosure agreement.

This pisses me off more and more every day. Trump and his adopted party sold us down the fucking river.

Unfortunately, you’re right. The country would explode in violence. Not a good deal of organized violence per se, but more sporadic, violent lone-wolf type events.

And if it doesn’t happen, and the entire GOP is revealed to be agents of Putin… the country will simply blow up.

Best case scenario, California, New York and other Democrat states vote to walk away and the First Nations declare and fight for independence.

Worst case scenario, you’ll have another Bosnian war and political ideological cleansing in each state.

I wasn’t a huge Clinton fan but you know what, of everyone who ran for President this time, she had the greatest understanding of government and of the issues important to our world. She had flaws yes but I have no doubt in my mind at all that she would have been a better President than Trump or any of the Republicans but also Bernie and the other Democratic candidates. So many people in this country don’t want a President. They want someone who affirms their prejudices.

re: #35 Quiet Storm

Here’s the truth! The Republicans would have started attacking Bernie for those sex articles he wrote in the 70s. Then they would have moved on to his being an elector for the Socialist Workers Party in 1980. Then they would have brought up his deadbeat dad status and how he stole electric power from a neighbor when he didn’t pay his bill. The cherry on the cake would have been going after his wife’s bungling of her college’s finances. And then they would top it off with Bernie giving away things for free (just like the GOP blasted McGovern’s support of the Negative Income Tax idea which would have given everyone a minimum income for everyone in 1972).

Bernie would have been SLAUGHTERED in the popular vote, probably getting a lower percentage than McGovern got in 1972 and he would have been the worst beaten Democrat ever only carrying 6 electoral votes totaled from Vermont and DC.

When the Federal Government is compromised beyond repair with a Russian-controlled Republican leadership that wants to impose a reincarnation of the Intolerable Acts (destruction of Medicare/SSI, shutting down public education, criminalising all LGBT, deporting 12M people, forcibly destroying all unions) and own all the cards WRT an equally tainted judicial system… what recourse is there?

FIght them in the halls of government, fight them with protests in the street, fight them however we can, because the promise to the world that is the United States of America, a government by the people, of the people, and for the people, for liberty and justice for all, should still be worth fighting for.

Not sure if I buy this:

Nevertheless, Kalugin allowed that if the FSB and GRU were responsible and Putin was now sitting on crucial information about various GOP officials, it would be reckless and dangerous to try and blackmail the White House directly. High-level officials, such as cabinet secretaries, have rarely been cultivated as spies or informants of Moscow, owing to what Kalugin characterizes as “potential repercussions.”

Middle and lower-cadre officials in the State Department or military-industrial complex are deemed easier and better marks for the spooks.

In this hypothetical, a heretofore semi-anonymous RNC staffer who may have written something professionally or personally damaging to himself is likelier to find himself approached by a Russian operative and offered a chance to switch sides than a member of the National Security Council.

“Just one man can destroy everything,” Kalugin said. “He doesn’t have to be the president.”

This, of course, assumes that Putin hasn’t blackmailed Trump already. I believe he has, probably a result of something that took place during Trump’s trip to Russia for the Miss Universe pageant.

And whatever it is, it’s plenty bad. Trump has already rolled over and surrendered.

FIght them in the halls of government, fight them with protests in the street, fight them however we can, because the promise to the world that is the United States of America, a government by the people, of the people, and for the people, for liberty and justice for all, should still be worth fighting for.

Yeppers.

To throw away America and to abandon hundreds of millions of innocent people to life under Trump is saying Lincoln was a fool, MLK and thousands of Freedom Marchers were unimportant. It’s saying that we’re willing to let Steve Bannon and his neo-Nazis do whatever they want to vulnerable people.

I deeply, deeply don’t like hearing liberals talking about secession. It was treason when the Confederates did it. It’s treason when anyone else does it. Let’s not give up on what the Founders, the North, and every freedom fighter fought and died for.

We as Americans have never been through the living experience. No one living in the Confederacy, before or after, is still around to recount their memories.

I suspect those memories would be a shit show. California brags about having an economy good enough for Calexit, but when Texas Republicans wanted to do the same thing, Texas business says “Haha LOL WHUT?” I’m not sure Calexit has any more of a case.

What about the East Coast? My own state of Massachusetts won’t want to secede—we have a Republican governor (who I’m not sure isn’t in Putin’s orbit.)

It is making me out of my mind, shit scared.

He’s popular only in a decided minority. Right after the inauguration, his ratings will crash back to base level and never rise again. And that’s without the inevitable news that he’s a Putin agent, along with others in the GOP.

Practically anything and everything he’s proposing is an invitation for widespread rebellion, violence and bloodshed. Possibly even worse.

Right now trump is +74 in EV votes. I don’t think that will be the final vote tally. I think he will come out of the EC with +60 to 65 votes.

Anyone else have a prediction?

Edit: I got the numbers wrong. Right now trump has 306 EVs. Just 36 above the 270 required. If just 19 EC voters switch from trump to Hillary, then the election reverses.

I finally got around to writing my letter to the editor about Trump’s cabinet choices:

If you haven’t been paying attention to Donald Trump’s nominees for cabinet and other positions, you need to start. All of your lives will be affected one way or another if they are confirmed. For example:

1. Betsy Devos, Trump’s nominee for the Secretary of Education, hates public education. She pushed for charter schools in Michigan, decimating funding for public schools. And then she prevented charter schools from being regulated, ruining them as well. Michigan’s education system is crumbling.
2. Tom Price, Secretary of Health and Human Services pick, not only wants to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, but privatize Medicare as well.
3. Steven Mnuchin, Treasury Secretary pick, made a huge portion of his money by foreclosing on homeowners through shady means.
4. Rex Tillerson, Secretary of State. He’s the head of Exxon, and has ties to Russia, notably in drilling in Siberia. He wants sanctions placed against Russia for annexing Crimea removed so that Exxon can continue it’s work.

Please find out for yourself who he has chosen, and figure out how they will affect you. One way or another, we and the people we love will be affected by these people being in office.

I had 200 words to work in; this is 199.

Trump wins with a minimum of 275-280 electoral votes.

But then not only Trump, but the entire GOP leadership is implicated in working with Putin, thrusting us into a full-blown Constitutional crisis as they refuse to resign. And they will not impeach themselves.

Basically, two of the three branches are hopelessly compromised and illegitimate, soon to be all three branches once Trump picks an unqualified whackjob for the Supreme Court. We will have zero recourse because there was never a provision for a wholesale election do-over.

Lol!! It’s not an altogether bad movie. There are a few Samuel Jackson jokes to be had.

White nationalist magazine National Review cozying up to Euro-fascists.

Another very punchable face. Somehow I think a pin would deflate that and he’d fly around the room backwards.

I’m just stumbling onto these. This is why Twitter is good.

It is bad. But it is good.

I think Trump honest to God gave her a job to shut McConnell up.

More specifically, a reward for stepping in and threatening to discredit any attempt to let people know what went on here.

re: #153 Patricia Kayden

How would Secretary Clinton be worse? Would she appoint a White Supremacist in the Attorney General position? Or an “alt-right” to a key position? Or a global warming denier to head the EPA?

Try telling that to the brainwashed Berniebusters and Jill Shills who refer to her as Killery…

Good. That means there’s truth to the WaPo’s story.

Automatically take anything that Green Glennwald says and reverse it. It’s more than a lie… it’s literal mirror-speak.

Right — it means he got a call from Putin to bail Trump out…
