Introducing Mozart to bluegrass fiddling, and although he's obviously unused to more informal music like that when he barely leaves the mansion or goes to town, he's still impressed with the amount of skill it takes as a fellow violin player

Researching herbicide resistance in weeds.

A decade ago, everyone said rotating applications of different herbicides was key to stopping herbicide resistance.

Then, around 2015, evidence from a large study emerged saying that this actually causes weeds to be MORE resistant, so the best thing to do is to spray a combination of multiple herbicides mixed together at once.

Now that is being called into question too. Whoda thunk it...

Herbicide resistance among weeds is only getting stronger. Recently, scientists found an annual bluegrass (Poa annua) on a golf course that was resistant to seven herbicide modes of action at once. Seven. SEVEN. Amaranth plants been found with resistance to six herbicide modes of action at once. Twenty years ago, the narrative was that resistance to glyphosate (Roundup) was unlikely to become widespread; today it's the second-most common type of resistance.

What's more, plants are developing types of herbicide resistance that are effective against multiple herbicides at once and harder to detect. Instead of changing the chemical processes within them that are affected by the herbicides so the herbicides don't work as well, they're changing the way they absorb chemicals in the first place. Resistant plants are producing enzymes that detoxify the herbicides before they even enter the plants' cells.

It took Monsanto ten years to develop crop varieties resistant to Dicamba (after weeds made 'Roundup Ready' crops pointless). Palmer amaranth evolved Dicamba resistance in five years.

So I asked, "Why are all the proposed solutions dependent on using more herbicides, when we know damn well that this is going to do nothing but make the weeds evolve faster?"

The answer is that chemical companies have the world in a death grip. They can't make money off non-chemical solutions, so chemical solutions get all the funding, research, and outreach to farmers.

But why do chemical companies have so much power?

One of the biggest reasons is the U.S. military.

In the Vietnam war, all of Vietnam was sprayed with toxic herbicides like Agent Orange, which was incredibly toxic to humans and affected the Vietnamese population with horrible illnesses and birth defects. Monsanto, the company that made the herbicides, knew that it did this, but didn't tell anyone. The US government didn't admit that they'd poisoned humans on a mass scale until Vietnam veterans started dying and coming down with horrible illnesses, and even then, it took them 40 years. (My Papaw died at 60 because of that stuff.) And the soldiers weren't there for very long. As for the Vietnamese people, the soil and water where they live is contaminated.

Similarly, during the "war on drugs," the US military sprayed Roundup and other chemicals on fields to destroy coca plants and other plants used in the manufacturing of drugs. This killed a lot of crops that farmers needed to live, and caused major health problems in places such as Columbia. The US government said that people getting sick were lying and that Roundup was just as safe as table salt. (A statement that did not age well.)

So chemical companies make money off arming the USA military. The American lawn care industry, and the agricultural system, therefore originates in more than one way from the United States's war-mongering.

The other major way is described in this article (which I highly recommend), which describes how after WW2, chemical plants used for manufacturing explosives were changed into fertilizer producing plants, but chemical companies couldn't market all that fertilizer to farmers, so they invented the lawn care industry. No exaggeration, that's literally what happened.

This really changes my perspective on all the writings about fixing the agricultural system. The resources are biased towards the use of chemicals in agriculture because the companies are so powerful as to make outreach and research for non-chemical methods of agriculture really hard to fund. All the funding is in finding new ways to spray chemicals or spraying slightly different chemicals, because that's what you can actually get ahold of money to look into. It is like the research has to negotiate a truce with the chemical companies, suggesting only solutions that won't cause lower profits.

Meanwhile my respect for Amaranth is skyrocketing.

Who would win: The USA military-industrial complex or one leafy boi

When Ry Cooder famously made his debut appearance at Glastonbury, playing on the Pyramid stage on a damp day in June 1990, he chose not to be backed by a band but by a second guitarist who came on sporting bright red trousers, and hair and sideburns that were very long, even by rock music standards. The duo perched on stools, surrounded by a dozen guitars, mandolins or bouzoukis, and proceeded to prove that they were both virtuoso players who could sound as thrilling as any amplified band as they switched from the atmospheric Paris, Texas to songs made famous by Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly or Jerry Lee Lewis.

Cooder’s companion, David Lindley, who has died aged 78, was a musicians’ musician. He may never have been as well known as those he played with, but he was one of the most sought-after session players in the US. Best known for his collaborations with Cooder and Jackson Browne, he also recorded with an astonishing list of musicians that included Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Iggy Pop, Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton, John Prine, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Ben Harper, Rickie Lee Jones and Bruce Springsteen. They wanted to work with Lindley not just because he was a great musician who could play almost any stringed instrument, from guitar and fiddle to slide guitar and mandolin through to oud and bouzouki, but because he knew how to interpret the mood of a song, adding texture and emotion without ever dominating.

His own musical taste was far more varied than the rock or singer-songwriter styles of the stars for whom he acted as sideman. When leading his own band, El Rayo-X, he was able to branch out and demonstrate his sense of humour as he explored blues, funk and reggae. Like Cooder, he was fascinated by musical styles from around the world, and some of his most original recordings were with musicians from Madagascar, Hawaii, Norway and Jordan.

Born in San Marino, Los Angeles, he was the son of Margaret (nee Wells) and Jack Lindley, a lawyer and music fan. He grew up listening to his father’s eclectic record collection, which included music from the Middle East and Asia, and he learned to play his father’s ukulele, then the banjo. While at La Salle high school in Pasadena he formed a bluegrass band, the Mad Mountain Ramblers, and then the Dry City Scat Band, which played around the Los Angeles folk clubs and at Disneyland. He was still a teenager when he first won the annual Topanga Canyon banjo and fiddle contest, but was asked to stop competing after he had won it five times.

Lindley’s reputation was growing fast, and in 1967 he landed his first major session, playing on Cohen’s debut, Songs of Leonard Cohen. By then he had formed his first electric band, Kaleidoscope, along with Chris Darrow, with whom he had played in the Scat Band. They released their first, wildly experimental album, Side Trips, in 1967, mixing Middle Eastern music with rock, cajun, country and bluegrass, but, though they were praised by Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, their unique brand of “psychedelic folk” didn’t sell records. They broke up in 1970, after recording four albums, and Lindley moved to England to work with the singer-guitarist Terry Reid, who had famously turned down Led Zeppelin.

Moving back to the US, Lindley teamed up with Browne, with whom he spent the rest of the 1970s, touring and recording as a key member of his band, playing acoustic and electric guitar, slide guitar and fiddle. He perfectly complemented many of Browne’s best-loved songs, playing lap steel on Running on Empty and fiddle on Before the Deluge. Browne called him “my hero”, and other musicians asked him to play on their records when Browne did not require his services. His recordings during that period included three albums for Ronstadt, including her first No 1 album, the exquisite Heart Like a Wheel (1974), two with Rod Stewart, including his bestselling Atlantic Crossing (1975), along with albums with Crosby & Nash, Taylor, Warren Zevon and Parton.

He first recorded with Cooder on Jazz (1978) and Bop Till You Drop (1979), after which the duo began performing live together, touring in Australia and Japan. A 1979 live radio recording from Osaka was released on CD in 2021. On their tour in 1995 they were joined onstage by Cooder’s son, Joachim, and Lindley’s folksinger daughter, Rosanne, and released the album Cooder/Lindley Family Live at the Vienna Opera House.

After leaving Browne’s band in 1980, Lindley moved from sideman to band leader with El Rayo-X, which he called “more or less a party band”, and in which he matched his own songs along with a bravely varied assortment of old favourites. The band’s self-titled debut set in 1981 included a glorious, furious treatment of KC Douglas’s Mercury Blues, while Win This Record, released the following year, included the Toots and the Maytals song Premature. Mr Dave (1985) included his own reggae composition Alien Invasion, and the band’s final album Very Greasy (1988) continued to demonstrate his fascination with the Caribbean. Produced by Ronstadt, it included Ronstadt adding harmony vocals on Lord Kitchener’s calypso classic Gimme da Ting (on which Lindley played guitar and kora) and a reggae reworking of Zevon’s Werewolves of London.

While running the band, he still managed time to visit London to play alongside Richard Thompson and Rory Gallagher, and revive his love of flamenco with Juan Martin, at a Guitarists Night concert in March 1984. And he continued his session work, including albums for Browne, and for Emmylou Harris, Ronstadt and Parton on Trio (1987). In 1990 he worked with Dylan on Under the Red Sky.

Still keen to expand his musical range, he travelled to Madagascar with the guitarist Henry Kaiser to record the musicians and unique instruments of the vast island off the east coast of Africa. The aim was to present local stars to an international audience, but Lindley and Kaiser joined in several of the sessions. The resulting albums, A World Out of Time, Vols 1 and 2 (1992-93), included Lindley playing slide guitar with the traditional band Tarika Sammy and joining guitarist Rossy on a reworking of I Fought the Law, the Crickets song popularised by the Clash.

Moving on to Hawaii, this time in the company of Cooder, he recorded with the Pahinui Bros (1992) on a set that included a Hawaiian reggae treatment of John Lennon’s Jealous Guy. Further musical travels included recordings in Norway with Kaiser for The Sweet Sunny North (1994). In 1994-95 he also recorded with the Jordanian oud player Hani Naser, and between 2000 and 2004 with the reggae percussionist Wally Ingram. Their third album together, Twango Bango III (2003) included When a Guy Gets Boobs, a comment on the American diet. “I have always liked songwriters like Warren Zevon who could write something goofy and also really serious,” he explained.

In 2006 he was reunited with Browne for a short Spanish tour on which they were backed by a flamenco percussionist. Love Is Strange, a live album recorded on that tour, was released in 2010, when Browne and Lindley toured Europe and the US, and played at Glastonbury, with a set that included Running On Empty and Mercury Blues. In the same year Lindley also worked with Bruce Springsteen on The Promise. His own final solo album, Big Twang, was released in 2007.

Lindley had a wild stage image, thanks to his colourful clothes and long hair, but he never favoured a rock’n’roll lifestyle, and would often retreat to his hotel room to rehearse after a show. He hated being disturbed in the morning by hotel workers, and would imitate a dog, scratching at the door and barking, to keep them away.

He lived in Claremont, California, in a house filled with musical instruments, and was married to Joan Darrow, the sister of his Kaleidoscope colleague Chris Darrow. He is survived by Joan and Rosanne.

🔔 David Lindley, musician, born 21 March 1944; died 3 March 2023

I love your headcanons, they are amazing. May I humbly request some Arkansas hcs?

Arkansas Headcanons

Arkansas’s State Spirit form is red diamonds that grow out of his upper back. More will start growing when his emotions become more intense. [#E61E32]

Arkansas is the only state with a public diamond mine, Crater of Diamonds State Park. Diamonds are an important part of the state, to where the diamond shape on the flag represents Arkansas as the first diamond-producing state. The three largest diamonds ever found in America also came from the state park.

His Spirit is red for the Razorbacks, and he just has that vibe.

Arkansas feels uncomfortable in cramped, urban places. He can’t stay there for more than a day. The only places like this that he can tolerate are his own urban cities.

The state’s nickname is the Natural State due to the natural beauty of the lakes, rivers, mountains, and wildlife found in Arkansas.

He’s very physically active and he spends more time outdoors than inside. He’s often seen playing on various bluegrass instruments and writing songs. Arkansas is basically always seen outside the house and the few times he is indoors are for meetings, dinnertime, and sleep.

Arkansas is very handy and basically a jack of all trades when it comes to crafting. He’s one of the states that patches up the house when the others damage it.

He likes to call Kansas “Kan-saw” in retaliation for all the “Ar-kan-sass” mispronunciations.

He’s a jeweler and often takes commissions from other states. Texas is one of his biggest customers and often makes intricate belt buckles for him. Credit to @the-phoenix-heart and her fanfic: Bad Luck Buddy

Just like in the fic, he has an old tin of small raw diamonds that he uses for jewelry making.

He finds them himself in Crater of Diamonds State Park since it has a “finders, keepers” policy on diamonds. Additionally, he’s always just had a sense for finding diamonds that he doesn’t share with anyone. Arkansas knows that the moment he does, everybody is going to keep using him to find free diamonds.

He has a really good cheese dip recipe and often has a stand in the World Cheese Dip Competition even though he isn’t allowed to compete.

The state claims to have invented cheese dip in 1935 and that the inventor also owned the first restaurant to ever sell it. The World Cheese Dip Competition is held annually in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Texan queso vs. Arkansan cheese dip is a point of contention between the two states (queso and cheese dip are two different things). Texas and Arkansas will argue about which is better, and Austin will talk about it even more passionately than his state. In fact, Austin may spend the entirety of his small window of time arguing that queso is better. Although, Texas may take a bit more time before taking back control as he feels pride at seeing Austin defend Texan honor and to see him “not bein’ such a lil’ pansy.”

The states often have some random skills, and Arkansas has one too. He can do a perfect duck call owing to the World's Championship Duck Calling Contest held in Stuttgart, Arkansas. The city is also known as the “duck hunting capital of the world.”

Arkansas once received a big mallard plushie during a Southern Secret Santa gift exchange. It was from Mississippi, but he doesn’t know that of course. The plushie’s name is Mo, short for Mojo.

Arkansas is also a member of the “snorts when he laughs hard” club.

Also because of the Razorbacks with its mascot and Hog Call. Figured it’d be cute too.

#replies!#welcome to the table #welcome to the statehouse #ben brainard #wttt #wttsh #wttt arkansas #headcanons

My Husband took me to the annual Herb Festival as soon as we woke up this morning.

I bought a 'Minnie' Rose cultivar, a Tricolor Sage, and a 'Purple Ruffles' Basil cultivar for the garden. I also beat a woman to this stunning Peruvian stamped Tea Pot and Saucer, and an Italian demitasse Tea Cup. Plus a 'Blackberry and Magnolia' scented Goat Milk soap from one of my favorite local soap makers that just ... The second I smelled it I was rocketed full force back to the Bluegrass Festival we attend every single year; it smells so strongly of that scent memory. So I snagged it since we can't go again this year.

It was so lovely. I had a great time since- and I even got to sleep in a bit since I didn't have to work the Master Gardener's booth today.

My favorite radio stations. 💖😙💗🥰🎶📻🎵

91.3 RSU college radio. I have been listening to them for about 15 years. 💗 (as long as I've lived in Oklahoma and for the brief couple of years I did not I still streamed them online daily!) Always plays the best new indie and has amazing weekly programming blocks for punk rock, Latin alternative, metal, oldies (sockhop Saturday morning! One of my favorite blocks!), bluegrass, folk, psychedelic, lofi, hip hop, dance, country, reggae, even grateful dead has their own block, throwback blocks to 00s/90s/80s/70s/60s and just everything good! I will always love this station!

One FM 91.3 Singapore i found by accident when trying to get rsu on a smart speaker. A happy accident bc now they are one of the only other stations I will play regularly. They are newer. There are virtually no ads, they play great tracks from the 80s 90s and 00s and they are very pleasant when they do have their small talk shows and programing blocks, its also great to hear about Singapore traditions and lifestyles. Their time is different from mine so it is fun they will be talking about going to bed when I'm making breakfast or talking about morning things when its time for bed here and play Saturday night party remixes all Saturday morning and day, the extra long remix Mashup dance tracks are actually a lot of fun so I'm glad!

Irish pub radio is a great one for irish classics and popular Irish artists of today. My family is Irish heritage and I've grown up with this music. They tend to repeat a lot of things but I will put this on when I need my Irish fix or really want to hear the saw doctors. Cead mile failte. 🇮🇪

This one is pretty self explanatory. It's queen Selena Quintanilla Perez radio all Selena all day. For some reason it no longer works on tunein but the website seems to still work. I love Selena. Anything for Selenas. 👏👸

Favorite Bands/Discographies, if i haven't posted a song from any of these artists that you're looking for request it and I will!

mewithoutyou, Mother Mother, Margot & the nuclear so and so's/Richard Edwards, The avett brothers, An Cafe, The Get up kids, The postal service, The pillows, Nigel silverthorne/the Natalie fight, Jukebox the ghost, Mika, Andrew Jackson jihad, Ai otsuka, Annuals, Manchester Orchestra, Fun., Dear and the Headlights, Hot Hot Heat, Selena, Of Montreal, Vampire Weekend, Miniature Tigers, Frightened Rabbit, Alan Jackson, Kaela Kimura, Maria mena, Blink 182, Saint motel, Daft punk, The Grateful Dead, Kimya Dawson/moldy peaches/the uncluded, Jd natasha, Talking heads, Frank Sinatra, The Saw Doctors, Good Charlotte, 1997, Seatbelts, Yoko kanno, The Used, Forgive durden, Buddy Holly, Architecture in helsinki, Johnny Cash, Kate nash, Anais mitchell, The new pornagraphers, electric light orchestra, oingo boingo, dethklok, tenacious d, beastie boys, death cab for cutie, flight of the Conchords, childish gambino, cursive,...

Always adding more as i think of them/if I've posted any artists song not listed here chances are they're still a fav so you can ask for tracks by them.

What fandoms have piqued your interest this year?

To be honest, not really anything? I did my annual rewatch of GF in the summer (mostly to smile at Fiddleford), have been contemplating but failing to go through Voltron materials again, and have been rereading the series that introduced me, in high school, to manga (Rurouni Kenshin). I haven't felt HTTYD-y for years, but I have had fun returning to HTTYD -- on my own terms without pressure -- for TNR. That might surprise people, but TNR's been a nice, lowkey fandom highlight of the year. Like that’s the closest I get to a fandom-related highlight in 2022. But I haven't felt fandom-y or fiction-oriented for a while. All the things I mentioned have been casual, short, blip-and-I'm-done diversions. Unless you count my three year solid obsession-turned-life-long-passion of bluegrass and early country music, but that's a given. ^.^ In which case I am the conductor of the Very Late Train to the Foggy Mountain Boys fandom. [plays Reuben] [no one is going to get that but it's a joke because Reuben is a train song that the Foggies would perform]

#sorry that that's not helpful but that's the truth of it #and it's honestly not something I want you to try to appeal to (since I know your motivation here ;) )#but you know I'm always in the mood for Bill Cipher stuff #blabbing Haddock #ask #ask me

It’s the annual “kind of my dad’s death anniversary day but not really because he died on a leap day so now I just get sad for no reason and listen to bluegrass” day. To those who celebrate.
