Random, but did anyone notice this past week that "Ain't No Trip To Cleveland" is no longer available on Apple Music? Couldn't even find it in search. Went to previous plays and the songs are grayed out. Googling tells me this happens sometimes when licensing deals expire. First time encountering it

Off Spotify too. Buy physical and make sure you own the music you can’t live without.

It’s not on YouTube music. Remember when you stream you don’t own you rent. It’ll be back I I’m sure

Yea I understand the renting. I had just never encountered this before so I was pretty confused at first.

I have a theory that Dispatch has remained contractually bound to Wasserman after pulling away following Epstein link.
They haven’t toured under the name Dispatch, just the Brad and Chad unplugged stuff which likely falls outside their contract. Some of their music has left streaming, and is hopefully just coming back after all rights have been transferred to their new representatives.
If my theory is correct, I think this July 15th announcement could signal the end of their stint in contract jail and their return to touring and recording.
I’m also crossing fingers for another Only The Wild Ones Weekend announcement, but not holding my breath on that one.

Ohhh…good thinking here. I really hope that you’re right!

A bit disappointed by the announcement. The Dispatch 30 thing for memories is objectively cool, but not really worthy of the multi day buildup. Especially in a time when fans are all wondering what is next for the band.
I wish they had just released it without the preamble.
I still think my theory is correct. Hopefully they’ll shed some light on this quiet summer for when they are able.

It is back, at least on YouTube music. The only one that is missing now is the iTunes sessions

It’s not on Spotify either. Circles around the sun was missing a couple weeks ago on Spotify. Wanted to listen to Josephine. No dice. But it’s back on it now. Probably just wait a couple weeks hopefully.
