Hi there! I recently volunteered to mod this semi-abandoned comm. I’m Doubting Thomas, and I’m here for the music.

I feel music should be an inclusive thing, and I love the original mod’s open attitude. I love heavy, spacey rock. To be clear, I’ve smoked a lot of pot in my life, but drugs have nothing to do with the music. When I was in school, ‘stoners’ were the long-hair kids smoking cigarettes across the street. I was one of them. For now, ‘stoner rock’ is whatever music (made by humans) that you think it is.

I would love some help! I really want a new header graphic. The current one is … well its cool and all, but I’m not fond of it. I’m a terrible but prolific digital artist. If someone wants to make a new graphic, it will probably be better than my work. Ping me with ideas or submissions. No AI.

Concerts! That’s what its all about, right? I want to hear about concerts you’ve been to. I want to write about tours coming up or ongoing. Hell, I want to go to more shows.

I hope to do a few interviews. I don’t really have the setup for this yet. I should get a better mic and a plan together before I try. But if there’s any interest in interviews, let me know!

Thanks all. Rock on.

    I have an idea for the new header graphic. I’m gonna collect a list of names for this music we love and put them in some word cloud app. I’ll take a screenshot of that, and then overlay it with the name of the comm.

    So … I need to start with a list. And I should expect to recreate it as I find new names. Here’s a few. Feel free to contribute.

    stoner, space, psych, heavy, doom, metal, sludge, grunge

    Ya, idk there’s a lot more. And the more we list, the more inclusive the comm will be.

    Edit … Dang. Well, I tried that idea. My results are not wonderful. Definitely gonna redo it and soon.
