I had to read the article to make sure this wasn’t old news. Yup, this is a second candidate that just got shot.

Buying football teams comes to mind.
I always liked the band Jellyfish.
I just took a gander over to Wikipedia to learn why they broke up. It was there where I read one of the best break up write ups ever:
“During the tour for Spilt Milk, Sturmer and Manning grew increasingly distant as friends. On their return home, the two songwriters independently wrote material for a third album, provisionally titled Nausea Trois. By then, they were drifting apart musically. Manning remembered that, prior, they would bond over albums such as Paul McCartney’s Ram or the Zombies’ Odessey and Oracle; however, “it was clear that none of that was happening anymore.” He said that he was “rediscovering my love of […] high-energy, fun melodic pop with attitude. And Andy was Leonard Cohen. That was it.” When Sturmer presented him a country ballad song, he accordingly “left in tears because I had zero interest in recording it.” Sturmer felt that Manning had outgrown the partnership, and for his part, was fearful that Manning’s new songs would likely inspire journalists to persistently compare the band to Alice Cooper.”
Really paints a picture!
They were a good band while it lasted.
Also…In 2004 or 2005, Coachella organizers invited Manning to reunite Jellyfish for a one-off performance at the festival. Manning advised the organizers to consult Sturmer first. Sturmer, through his lawyer, responded he would not accept the offer regardless of any amount of money involved.
Woah!!
Someone here posted a link to fledd.it and I started to go there for my news: https://fledd.it it’s a news aggregate.
Agh, I’m not excited about having to do that. I like to keep things simple.
okie dokie, thanx! I was just wondering since I just read something about beehaw communities shadow banning if I sign up for certain other communities and was wondering if that had something to do with it. Reference: https://lemm.ee/post/547600
Reminds me an Indiana Jones ride where a hologram of a boulder rolls toward you.
