njnancy said:You are making progress! I like your commitment!
I don't know the last band you listened to but I'm glad that you enjoyed it.Here's a cool little introduction to Dinosaur Jr:
"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -
Or if you meant Earthless, a little something along the same lines (most of their stuff is long jams and Heavy Blanket is basically just J Mascis from Dinosaur Jr):

I like jam bands very much. I will listen to both - thank you for posting the videos. I have a migraine so I'll wait till it's gone so I can enjoy with my headphones.0

I woke up with a migraine again today but I think that it is finally ready to leave so tomorrow looks like a 'discover new music day'.0 -

I woke up with a migraine again today but I think that it is finally ready to leave so tomorrow looks like a 'discover new music day'.I love discovering new music, especially stuff that grows on me. Cool to hear you're open to doing the same!I hope that migraine is vamoose! They are worst when they linger. Last year, I had one that went a solid 48 hours. All I could do was lie in a darkened room and moan. Do any of the meds help you? Any other therapies that help?"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -

I can't take most prescription medication because they all can cause serotonin syndrome if taken with SSRI's (anti-depressants). Since I take SSRI's and I'm not going off of them, I'm left with pain medication which doesn't really help because once a migraine begins, it's already too late. I hate them. I started having them after I had my son. I almost died in childbirth and I don't know if that is what kicked it off, but they have been with me for 21 years.
Botox shots I have not tried - for migraines or aesthetics. I know that I get them when the pressure drops, so I know when snow or rain is coming before the weather forecasters do. I also get them if I eat sweet stuff - so I stick to some dark chocolate now and then and I don't drink soda (probably explains why my hangovers used to be so bad). My head feels like it's going to crack, I can't think well, light and sound bother me and I get very nauseous. I don't get the auras that some people do, which I guess is good - I don't see how they could make them any worse. There really is nothing I can do but lay with an ice pack and try to sleep. When my son was younger - I did everything with migraines - drove, shopped, attended meetings - it was awful. Now I don't have to be his advocate 100% of the time.
The best remedy for migraines is the CBD in cannabis. I am sober so I don't use anything, but I have thought about getting a medical marijuana Rx for a high CBD/low THC strain. Pot is also suggested for PTSD, so that would kill 2 birds - but I can't use it to get high, so again, I'd have to find the right doctor to give me the right Rx.
I've done the acupuncture, rubbing between my thumb and forefinger, chiropractic, physiatrist - none help my migraines. The last two and massage help my back, but that's a whole other thing.
Anyway - today is my 'recovery day' - the first day after several days of a migraine I feel like I've been hit by a truck and I don't want to do anything that might make my head hurt. I listened to music today, but nothing new - one of my playlists that is soothing.
Thanks for asking - I'll let you know when I listen to your stuff.0 -

Thanks for asking - I'll let you know when I listen to your stuff.I'm sorry to hear you struggle so with migraines. They are a tough condition to alleviate because there are so many triggers and those of us who get them have to go through this whole long process of trying to pin it down. That is frustrating.A few years ago, after trying so many other avenues, I decided to go with the Botox treatments figuring at that point it couldn't hurt. I've had pretty good luck with them. I get the injections every three or four months and the migraines have been less frequent since then. I still do things like very much limit drinking alcohol, avoid eating nuts, and try to reduce stress.I do use a little CDB and I suppose that might help some but I'm not sure. I don't think it could hurt for you to try.

I started having them after I had my son. I almost died in childbirth and I don't know if that is what kicked it off, but they have been with me for 21 years.
Botox shots I have not tried - for migraines or aesthetics. I know that I get them when the pressure drops, so I know when snow or rain is coming before the weather forecasters do. I also get them if I eat sweet stuff - so I stick to some dark chocolate now and then and I don't drink soda (probably explains why my hangovers used to be so bad). My head feels like it's going to crack, I can't think well, light and sound bother me and I get very nauseous. I don't get the auras that some people do, which I guess is good - I don't see how they could make them any worse. There really is nothing I can do but lay with an ice pack and try to sleep. When my son was younger - I did everything with migraines - drove, shopped, attended meetings - it was awful. Now I don't have to be his advocate 100% of the time.
The best remedy for migraines is the CBD in cannabis. I am sober so I don't use anything, but I have thought about getting a medical marijuana Rx for a high CBD/low THC strain. Pot is also suggested for PTSD, so that would kill 2 birds - but I can't use it to get high, so again, I'd have to find the right doctor to give me the right Rx.
I've done the acupuncture, rubbing between my thumb and forefinger, chiropractic, physiatrist - none help my migraines. The last two and massage help my back, but that's a whole other thing.
Anyway - today is my 'recovery day' - the first day after several days of a migraine I feel like I've been hit by a truck and I don't want to do anything that might make my head hurt. I listened to music today, but nothing new - one of my playlists that is soothing.
Thanks for asking - I'll let you know when I listen to your stuff.I'm sorry to hear you struggle so with migraines. They are a tough condition to alleviate because there are so many triggers and those of us who get them have to go through this whole long process of trying to pin it down. That is frustrating.A few years ago, after trying so many other avenues, I decided to go with the Botox treatments figuring at that point it couldn't hurt. I've had pretty good luck with them. I get the injections every three or four months and the migraines have been less frequent since then. I still do things like very much limit drinking alcohol, avoid eating nuts, and try to reduce stress.I do use a little CDB and I suppose that might help some but I'm not sure. I don't think it could hurt for you to try. In any case, I hope you find something that helps.*************************************************So tonight's record (still working through the D's) is Donovan's Barabajagal, one of my favorites of his!
And enjoy Donovan - I like him.No, I had to get a referral to see a neurologist who does the shots. It seems like a weird thing to do but it seems to work!Next record up, an obscure one: Minentia 13, Mirror Mind... which I just happen to notice is out of alpha order. My OCD self will correct that immediately!Ha! Not only is it in the wrong place alphabetically, but I spelled it wrong. The band is Dimentia 13!Sheesh, this is what I get when I stay up late.
Still haven't listened to those two clips you posted - headache gone finally but RL got f'ed up so I am aiming to listen tonight. Very curious about what they sound like.
Enjoy dementia, I mean Dimenita!!Right! Always file by last name, well done!Or filing a record called 21 All-Time Golden Hits under "T" for "Twenty". Wrongo! I always file by number first, starting lowest to highest, then go on to the alphabet, a-z.And what about McAndrews or MacDonald? I go by the letter and don't mix the "Mc..." names with the "Mac..." names."It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -

I woke up with a migraine again today but I think that it is finally ready to leave so tomorrow looks like a 'discover new music day'.I love discovering new music, especially stuff that grows on me. Cool to hear you're open to doing the same!I hope that migraine is vamoose! They are worst when they linger. Last year, I had one that went a solid 48 hours. All I could do was lie in a darkened room and moan. Do any of the meds help you? Any other therapies that help?

So what record/artist are you currently enjoying??
I have found so many new bands on here and on Spotify - Dinosaur Jr. appeared on a playlist they made for me - still gotta listen to them.
I'm curious how you are doing with your endeavor though.0 -
