“When it's been my ghost and the empty road I think the stars are just the neon lights Shining through the dance floor Of heaven on a Saturday night” Magnificent line ❤
No me puedo creer que estuvieras en Lleida y que no tuviera una especie de epifanía que me hiciera ir corriendo hacia ti tras el concierto a decirte que estamos de tu parte. Empiezo la mañana con Spotify, veo la escoria que la plataforma selecciona para mí como música del momento y pierdo la fe en este mundo que eleva a los altares a verdaderos oligofrénicos y permite que gente con tu talento pase de puntillas, como pidiendo perdón, y completamente inconsciente de su descomunal talento. Fue un detalle por parte de Kevin Morby que te homenajeara. De hecho, Morby es uno de los portadores de tu increíble legado.
I am speechless at this moment about Jason Molina. I stumbled onto Magnolia Electric Company just two weeks ago and have not been listening to anything else. There is a depth and emotion, and a connection to the music that borders on despair, anger, and darkness. I know where some of that comes from. I was given a second chance, 18 years ago, from destruction and the agony of alcoholism. My heart goes out to everyone reading this post because it is personal. I weep for all the lights that have gone out because of the disease that robbed us of a(nother) phenomenal musician. One hour ago I started looking for a tour schedule. Two hours ago I watched my first live video of the band. I was absolutely compelled to see the band live as soon as possible. As long as it would be in the continental US I would spare no expense to get there. Of all the things that could have dispelled my enthusiasm, it was the curse that I know. Some of us never make it to enjoy the purity of sobriety for only one day. It is wrenching to the human spirit. I did not want to leave this as dark as it started, but you cannot put lip-stick on it. As a final thought, I wanted to send Jason's family a special condolence. This tragedy can never be explained in the light of reason. It can't be, ever. Jason's spirit will live in the hearts of people like me, and I am sure many others. In some abstract way, when anyone dies from what Jason suffered, it is like the loss of a family member to me - a brother I never met. Dwell in Peace.
"I will try and know whatever I try I will be gone but not forever I will try and know whatever I try I will be gone but not forever The real truth about it is no one gets it right The real truth about it is we're all supposed to try"...... Hits big with all of us that struggle with addiction.
It seems like a miracle not only that this live version was impeccably performed and recorded but there's quality video and edits to go along. I'm so glad I found Jason's music.
so grateful recordings like this exist! I haven't seen a live concert in almost two years because of covid but the silver lining is that I've been able to discover masterpieces such as these
@@thejamnasium6447 my mother was dying in hospice when I discovered this song 5 years ago…adding “mama” to such poetry made me sob involuntarily…. “Listen. Listen.” My BIL is from Lorain; I’ve been there many times, and it completes the visuals of his dark lake lyrics… “Listen.”
In another lifetime I was in this basement pub sitting alone in a dim corner table with a pint of beer which I had forgotten to drink from and a drop of tear in the corner of my eye. Farewell transmission.
