Larry David, claiming that the latest episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm “lied” by portraying conservatives as “racists and rednecks”.The long-running HBO comedy series recently kicked off its 12th and final season, and the episode that angered Greene saw David (playing an exaggerated version of himself) arrested for offering a voter a sip of water while queuing at a polling booth on a boiling hot day.The gesture apparently violated the state law in Georgia, which prevents people from giving food and drink to voters waiting in line.In another scene, David is forced to go door-to-door in Atlanta, seeking a replacement for a racist lawn statue he accidentally damaged at an Airbnb, which leads to a confrontation with an angry Trump supporter in a MAGA (Make America Great Again) hat.In a lengthy post on X (formerly Twittter), Greene said that Curb Your Enthusiasm “lied” by painting conservatives and Trump supports as “racists and rednecks”.The right-wing politician also accused the episode of “making fun of our good new law that stops the Stacey Abrams vote pandering machine and prevents voter fraud”.“We in Georgia are fed up with disgusting Hollywood and their disgusting values and elite judgement in our state that is trying to turn GA blue!” she wrote.I watched this week’s episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm and it was a glaring reminder of why most Georgian’s resent Republicans in our state for inviting the nasty commies from California, the Hollywood elites, into our state by dishing out Hollywood tax credits.This week’s…— Marjorie Taylor Greene
Queen guitarist Brian May has revealed that he has “never liked” the mix of ‘Under Pressure’, the band’s 1981 smash hit collaboration with David Bowie. Speaking in an interview with Total Guitar (via Guitar World), May revealed that the original version of ‘Under Pressure’ “sounded massively chord-driven,” but that much of its “heavy guitar was lost” following Bowie’s input on the final mix.Recalling the song’s creation, May said ‘Under Pressure’ was the result of spontaneous late nights in the studio, with the initial cut featuring a “pretty heavy backing track.” At first, May said he was “beaming” over the heavier guitar sound because it reminded him of The Who.May raised that comparison to Bowie, who said “‘it’s not going to sound like The Who by the time I’ve finished with it.’” May continued: “[Bowie] didn’t want it to be that way.”The guitarist said that the changes were made because “we all had different ideas of how [‘Under Pressure’] should be mixed,” specifically naming Bowie and Queen frontman Freddie Mercury.“Basically it was Freddie and David fighting it out in the studio with the mix,” May recalled, “and what happened in the mix was that most of that heavy guitar was lost.”May went on to reveal that he originally played the main riff of ‘Under Pressure’ on an electric guitar, but that it was replaced by the “acoustic bits which were done first as a sort of demo.” As for the final mix that was eventually released, May admitted that he “never liked it, to be honest.”“I do recognise that it works.
