  1. I think those are two separate issues. There is plenty of fantastic recorded music right now. The problem with live is that there is so much of it, and in most cases, the guy who has all the gear and is willing to schlep it, doesn’t have the best ears or knowledge. It’s kind of amazing. The last show I was at, we went to see the opening act. When the headliners started, we left. Even with earplugs, it was so loud that it was a mush of garbage and you couldn’t hear anything. You should never have to put in ear plugs at a live show if the mix is right.
  2. -It’s also amazing how many really bad live audio engineers there are. Loud doesn’t mean good.
  3. -I know 4 different people (me being one) that had vertigo issues on Tuesday. Something is going on. Wish there was more air in the air. -Why don’t cats eat out of their own GD bowl? -Buffalonil. https://www.nhl.com/news/2023-24-nhl-trades/c-344953916 There have been 6 trades so far this summer (maybe one of note.) The NHL has taken off for the summer. Maybe you should too. I know I should.
  4. I’m just curious why you would think you’d get heat on any of those names. For me it’s Reinhart. It wasn’t so much him individually (although I really liked him), but it seemed to highlight the absolutely dismal state of the team, and yet another reminder of what a completely disastrous mistake the Tank was (or, to write it so I don’t have LGR telling me the Tank worked - what a completely disastrous mistake the tanking strategy was.)
  5. Just bought Meshuggah tickets for December. Cant wait for my wife to see them. Also have VOLA tickets for September. Jinjer is playing in Niagara Falls in August. Really going to try to get back for that.
  6. So, back to the thread title. Are you telling us or asking us?
  7. Is that the kid from It's Always Sunny and the kid from American Pie?
  8. It has been that very thought that has kept me sane when thinking about how much my own industry doesn’t care (or even know) what I do, and that as long as my checks clear and I don’t have to write an email to some turkey about a mistake that nobody even realized I made, then I’m good. I still wish it was better,… cuz it’s so easy to make it better.
  9. The video played fine for me, as well. I, too, thought that Commodore was hilarious. It just sounds like sh!t! The hosts' mics were different levels and completely distorted, and when they snorted or laughed or coughed, you couldn't hear the guest for a quick second. It was awful, as is the audio for most podcasts. I am a professional audio engineer. The fact that you think it sounded fine makes me sad. Let me use a visual aid. Here is SwampD's Employment index chart. The pandemic has made the tolerance line much steeper.
  10. That makes sense. I guess watching him as often as I have, I don’t even notice it anymore. He’s really objective and I don’t think I’ve ever seen him be a fanboy. Not even sure who “his” team is, if he even has one.
  11. The point is we would rather listen to his sober thoughts on our team than try an figure out what your drunken, unpunctuated posts are trying to say. 😂 Sorry, PA, but this is just a weird, old cranky guy take. What he is wearing has no bearing on his opinion. He always wears a jersey from the team he is talking about. And this is his full time job now, so if people see him in their team's jersey, in a list of search result videos, they will be more likely to click on it.
  12. Interesting,… So, you believe in evolution, then,… …sinner.
  13. I can't believe that people think the Bills are going to be worse next year. This might be the summer I finally throw down a twenty for them to win it all. … and it's Josh chasin' Hollywood tail that sent me over the edge.
  14. I used that very phrase yesterday.
  15. I have a friend that played four games in the ECHL and had four assists. He said the only stats they keep are fights and goals. They cut him.
  16. Why do I have to re-enter every ****ing password on every ****ing site on every ****ing device lately!!! FU, Skynet!!!!
  17. I get it. This is how it’s done, so this is how it’s done, and the stats show that this is how is done, so teams try to make sure that this is how it’s done. I’m just not sure it matters, other than this is how it’s done.
  18. There is also an advantage to having your body against wall with your stick free towards the center of the ice.
  19. Cheese or fruit? and oatmeal sucks.
  20. There is no way that any human (other than you,… and now us) knows that this specific event is even happening. I know I’ve mentioned this before, probably in this thread, but my wife got our credit card bot to dispute with the bot from a company I buy software from. Took a couple of months, but we got our refund. I doubt there was a human at either company that knew this took place.
  21. I don’t even mind rain. They make jackets for just that purpose. Also, water dries. Thought he was Danish.
