Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia. Today is Wednesday, Aug. 19, 2026. #1 – From JAMBASE – Billy Strings drops in at the Empty Glass You never know who might show up on a West Virginia stage. While in Charleston for a Mountain Stage appearance, Grammy-winning bluegrass musician Billy Strings made his way to the legendary Empty Glass and settled in for an impromptu jam session. The surprise performance stretched for hours, giving a small crowd the kind of live music experience you can't exactly put on the calendar. It's another reminder of the deep musical culture that runs through West Virginia, from internationally known performers and Mountain Stage to the small clubs where musicians still gather simply for the love of playing.

The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources has completed more than $1.2 million in improvements at Plum Orchard Lake Wildlife Management Area. The investment includes a new $1.16 million WMA headquarters, new courtesy docks, improvements to an accessible fishing pier, better parking lot lighting, drainage improvements, shoreline erosion control and new signage. Located about 20 minutes from Beckley, Plum Orchard Lake offers fishing for largemouth bass, bluegill, redear sunfish, crappie and channel catfish, along with hunting and primitive camping. The improvements are part of WVDNR's effort to improve public access while protecting an outdoor resource for generations to come.

Two years later, she turned that experience into Women, Wine & Waders. The West Virginia business creates welcoming opportunities for women to discover fly fishing through casting clinics, guided adventures, retreats and educational programs. Equipment is provided, helping beginners get on the water without a major upfront investment. As the business grew, Dunlap turned to the West Virginia Small Business Development Center for coaching and support. Now in its second decade, Women, Wine & Waders is growing beyond a fly-fishing group into a women's outdoor-adventure brand built around confidence, friendship and a shared love of the outdoors.

Has anyone seen the confident swagger of Nigel Farage lately? Thought not. A month of funding controversy, candidate shenanigans and sliding support has culminated in Reform UK being soundly beaten in a by-election that was supposed to be too close to call. Alex and Kenny look at why Reform is stalling, and the reasons why Farage is right to be feeling a bit 'glass half-empty' right now. And the wonderful Emma Harrison, CEO of Make Votes Matter, is back (with a bonus appearance from Naomi) for a deep dive into all the different options for electoral reform.

All eyes were on Ardagh's CDS after Arini challenged its senior unsecured notes being included in the final list of deliverable obligations to settle contracts.The fund manger argued that, because the bonds had already been marked to be equitised as of the CDS trigger date (when the restructuring was both effective and binding) then their outstanding principal balance should be zero — since they effectively no longer existed. Arini went on to claim that any finding that the bonds still had a non-zero OPB would turn them it into “Schrödinger's Obligations” — existing in two incompatible states at once.Tresidor and Laurion (the latter advised by Milbank) then joined the fight by issuing counter challenges defending the inclusion of the notes.The challenge was eventually rejected by the EMEA Credit Derivatives Determinations Committee in a split vote, with Citi and Pimco dissenting on the decision. That result means SUNs will be included, and so Ardagh's equity valuation will influence the final payout as part of an alternative asset package delivery mechanism to replace the bonds.This hotly contested debate followed the DC having failed to achieve a supermajority ruling on the credit event trigger in the first place, which meant it had to call upon an external review panel of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association. The panel of KCs determined the September tigger date, from which CDS contracts must pay out to protection holders, but did not specify how that payout would be handled at auction.In this episode of Distressed Diaries, our host, senior distressed reporter Bianca Boorer, sits down with 9fin editor and our resident CDS expert Dan Alderson to go through the ins and outs of this rejected challenge and what it means for the CDS market as a whole.

By 1980, Pete Townshend was 34 or 35, regarded as a true legend of rock music and a revered songwriter. He was one of the true pied pipers of rock n roll. The only problem was, there was no such thing as a middle-aged rock star. In 1978, the death of Keith Moon hit him hard and put in the question the future of The Who. Punk music was railing against old bands like The Who and while Pete was with them in spirit, he realized that they may have had a point. Meanwhile, Pete was battling alcohol and heroin addictions while his marriage to his first wife was on the rocks. He was looking for spiritual fulfillment and yearning for peace of mind. But out of all that came Empty Glass, a marvelous album with vivid melodies, personal lyrics and Pete Townshend's heart on his sleeve. He dedicated the album to his wife, Karen, and some of the songs could be in her voice. Pete takes on the personality of different people to get his points of view across with lyrics that can be ambiguous but deeply personal. The opening track Rough Boys is seen by some as a coming out for Townshend but it's a rockin' way to kick off a record. The alltime great Let My Love Open The Door is an instant pick me up that outsold the platinum (in the US) Empty Glass several times over and remains a favorite for movie soundtracks aimed at the children of the 1980s. But songs like I Am An Animal and I Moved showcase Pete's softer side before the ranting Jools and Jim aimed at authors who dismissed Keith Moon's death as inevitable and even warranted. Keep On Working shows Pete trying to channel The Kinks and A Little Is Enough may have been a minor hit but Townshend regards it as one of the best songs he's ever written. The title track is a man desperate for his soul to be saved, an empty vessel looking for someone to fulfill him. Would he ever find that peace? Would any of us? It's a strong record with incredible melodies with killer musicians like Simon Phillips, Tony Levin and Pete himself arranging the songs into beautiful classics. This was a fun one to do and if you don't know the album, we think you're gonna like it.

Hey, guitarists (OK...and wannabe guitarists too)! What were the records that made/make YOU want to pick a guitar and learn to play? That's the burning question this week, as we welcome Third Lad Andy Golding from C86 legends The Wolfhounds to O3L! The Wolfhounds are an English noise pop band formed in Romford, Essex, in 1985 by Dave Callahan, Paul Clark, Andy Golding, Andy Bolton and Frank Stebbing, and originally active until 1990. The band reformed in 2005 and continues to write, record and play live, releasing new albums in 2014, 2016, and 2020. (Thanks, Wikipedia.) Andy's current project is called Dragon Welding (hmmm...what does that mean? Listen and find out!), whose latest single is "TADT (These Are Dangerous Times)." What the hip kids are saying about Dragon Welding: "..a pulsating beat with all sorts of strings being strummed and plucked, in all sorts of 60's/70's school holidays tv series soundtrack kind of ways." - Whisperin' & Hollerin' - 2023 "Dragon Welding.. guitarist of Essex post-rock outliers The Wolfhounds, is a wondrous tapestry of ambient guitar instrumentals and sonic manipulations. This is music that channels the cosmic experimentations of 70s German avant-garde synth-rock with a dark Essex twist that somehow has glorious poptones. For fans of : Mouse On Mars, Plaid, Cluster." - Platekompaniet - 2023 Plus, as an added bonus, hear some of Brett's teenage recordings, including the "legendary" 1990 Empty Glass concert!

On this week's episode, we dig into Pete Townshend's official debut solo LP, 1980's Empty Glass. As the main songwriter for The Who, Pete Townshend crafted songs that let singer Roger Daultrey flex his powerful voice and lets the rhythm section stretch out and indulge their bombastic sides. But on Empty Glass, Townshend is able to show that he can write songs that require a softer, perhaps more nimble, touch. His voice is sweet, almost delicate in places, but its the musicianship where Townshend really shows that he is capable of nuance and subtlety.  The songs are tight, precises (very much the opposite of the Who), and deftly straddles the the old-guard rock world 1970's and the bright,  synth heavy world of a still burgeoning post-punk/new wave movement. Visit us at www.tappingvinyl.com.

The Who were ready to call it a day in 1982 which makes It's Hard their swan song.  Of course they eventually came back but they were facing MTV, middle age, solo careers and examining life through different lenses.  Keith Moon died in 1978 after the release of Who Are You and The Who soldiered on with Kenney Jones (The Faces) on the drums.  But Pete Townshend's solo debut Empty Glass in 1980, which featured the mega-hit Let My Love Open The Door, put the band in an awkward position.The Who released Face Dances in 1981 but Pete was more keen on a solo career after the triple platinum Empty Glass.  But the record company wanted one more Who album and tour and It's Hard was to serve as The Who's swan song which it did for nearly a quarter of a decade.Radio hits Athena and Eminence Front are well known but diving deeper into the album unlocks some unheralded songs written by John Entwhistle, Pete's contemplation of himself as a middle age rock star and what their collective future might be with or without the band.  While some of the keyboards and synths might make this one sound dated, some of the themes of struggling to understand your place in the world are as poignant as ever.  It was fun to rediscover this one!Ugly American Werewolf in London WebsiteTwitterInstagramYouTubeLInkTreewww.pantheonpodcasts.com
