Hindu Love Gods was a Warren Zevon side project with no affiliation to REM that I know of.

And come say that that to my face.

If you're one guy, being in a band can't really be a side project, even if your solo stuff is much more renowned.

"The Kip Winger side project, Winger"
"The Paul McCartney side project, the Beatles Wings"

Hindu Love Gods was REM with Warren Zevon taking lead vocals instead of Michael Stipe.

That is an awesome cover.
That would have been unlistenable if Stipe had been singing.

That case sounds pretty flimsy. Depending on the context of "My wife is trying to poison me" there could be a huge number of reasonable explanations. Ditto for how the Husband could have gotten and ingested fentanyl. The whole public has been told that poo poo is lethal to the touch and can be found in lethal quantities on dollar bills in circulation.

Yes, even a Bronx Tim Pool Worshipping MAGA Security Guard saw fit to find him liable for everything except rape.

The funny part is he probably wasn’t found liable for rape because Carrol wasn’t clear if it was his penis or his tiny orange fingers he penetrated her with.

So having an absurdly small penis saved him a few million there. Lost him a few with Stormy, lol.

https://www.al.com/news/2023/05/alabama-dems-abolish-dnc-mandated-lgbtq-youth-caucuses.html

quote:

“What happened today — what the leadership of the Alabama Democratic Party did — was to essentially say that we don’t represent the Democratic electorate in Alabama anymore,” former U.S. Senator Doug Jones said after the meeting.

In a state where Republicans pass tougher and tougher voting restrictions every legislative session, the Alabama Democratic Party has responded by enacting its own sort of poll tax. At least two dozen executive committee members were turned away, having been told they had not paid a $50 qualifying fee they say they were not warned about.

One of those folks who was turned away, Youth Caucus member Haley Czarnek, told me she offered to pay $50 cash on the spot but was told she couldn’t. Then she was told she couldn’t vote as an executive committee member — a committee she has sat on three times in the last year — because she hadn’t paid.

On the other side of this power struggle within the Alabama Democratic Party are party boss Joe Reed and his ally, party chairman Randy Kelley.

“I walked up to the podium and gave the chair my $50 directly and asked him if I would be allowed to vote, and Joe Reed told me that I would not,” Czarnek said. “And he told the entire party that you cannot buy your way into the meeting, which is the same meeting at which I was told the reason why I wasn’t going to be seated was because I hadn’t paid.”
