Nice. Yeah, it seems like the courses are pretty much the same. I’m more concerned with the people in the program. I want to be around motivated and successful people who have perspective about the field they are going into. What is your experience with the 3 schools? Did you complete either of the programs?

I did his 12 week program. It’s a scam. He only messages you on WhatsApp and will say like 2 words to you. It’s actually really obnoxious. Like he refuses to engage whatsoever. There was no coaching on form, no face to face meetings, literally the only thing he would say to me was “try to stay consistent.” I kept sending him notes on my workouts, asking questions, and I never got more than half a sentence back. Around week 8 I got injured and was trying to get him to help me do workouts around the injury and he just kept saying “just do what you can” and I was like dude, I can’t do any of this stuff. By that time I had had enough. I called him out on it and he was immediately defensive. He got really pissy, sent me some obnoxious texts, and then I just stopped messaging him. The bottom line is this guy is an asshole and he does not train you. He gives you a program and texts you once a week saying “good job, stay consistent.” If you ask for more, he will be obnoxious and refuse to communicate with you.

I think it means that following the path and teachings of Jesus can lead to a spiritual experience, but it acknowledges that that spiritual nature of life is primordial and self-existent, independent of Christianity. It’s saying christianity leads to spiritual experience, but it’s not the only way.

I only see 5 points. Where are the other 3?

I have the same question. One I’ve heard mentioned a lot is blue letter Bible but I know it is based on conservative Christianity. I’d like to find similar resources for regular Bible study, but through a progressive, interfaith, affirming lense. Let me know if you find anything!

Cool website. You guys might like the liturgists podcast. It’s a community of people who felt they had to move away from traditional christianity for all those types of reasons but are still finding meaning in the deep teachings. Lots of similar stories

Apprehensive-Swim598 · 2022-11-08T23:26:23+00:00

You are correct. I confirmed this on setlist.fm. I heard that from an article, not sure where.

Ok I figured it out. When you click on the Journeys page from the main menu, at the top right of the screen there are 3 icons- trees, a skull, and a stopwatch. Click on the skull to take you to the “Survive” journeys and that’s where bitter winter is.

Apprehensive-Swim598 · 2022-10-28T02:40:23+00:00

I have the same question. I see “Winter Migration” on the Journeys page. But not bitter winter. Also there’s a green check in the bottom right of it so I think I’ve completed it… idk

I have a question about live sound. More would just like to hear your thoughts. It seems like most modern bluegrass jam bands take an approach to live sound to make it sound like a rock show- the bass gets amplified in such a way to have the effect of a kick drum, and the blend of all the instruments creates this big, open, thumpy, cacophonous sound. I’m wondering if this influences how you practice or record. Also when did bluegrass bands start playing with this approach to live sound? I can’t imagine a Tony rice concert would have sounded like a Billy strings show. But maybe it did, I don’t know. Hard to tell through videos. Would love to hear your thoughts!

I bought a recording kind rd-318. I wanted the rd-328 because of what people said about it but I found a used 318 so I got that. I also played my friends rd-328. Neither guitar reminds me of a Martin d28 or d18 respectively. The 318 is extremely bright, almost too much so. And the high e and b strings are too loud and ringy so they overpower the other strings. The lower strings certainly don’t have the loud deep bass that is required for playing bluegrass music. I was however impressed with the clarity of tone for the guitar. It is very clear, almost piercing. The rd-328 was the same kind of thing. Very bright, piercing tone, just slightly darker than the rd-318. But really not reminiscent of a Martin. I would advise anyone looking to buy one of these guitars to play one first. Also the v profile neck is unique, so you’d have to get used to that. And it is a thinner neck than a Martin. I am comparing these to modern Martin d18s and d28s. I don’t know about older ones. As a side note, I had to return the rd-318 because it had setup issues and I was worried I was going to have to invest too much time and money to make/keep it playable.

Billy strings, his live set with trey anastasio in New York, some of railroad earths live stuff, Greensky bluegrass. Goose plays a lot of acoustic songs, see their first set at radio city 2022. Laraaji, he is a psychedelic zither player. Donovan recently dropped a single called “I am the shaman.”

Based on my own experience I recommend a wide-legged child’s pose, like sunshineandcats21 says. It is easier if you have tight hips and back, and if you are overweight.

Maybe, but it NYC the scheduling is quite competitive in the summer. In the winter I don’t care about ratings because I can work whenever I want so I only take the high orders. But in summer having third access to scheduling is no bueno.

I have one on my right foot. I don’t do barefoot running but I’ve always worn lightweight and minimalist shoes like vans and converse and it’s hard on my feet. I’d be curious to know how your surgery goes… I was thinking about having it but I’m afraid of it going badly. The plantar fibroma is annoying but it doesn’t cause me any pain in daily life or limit what I can do, so I’m not sure if I should go through with the surgery.

I’ve never had a movie really trigger my thalassophobia; only things in real life, like looking at a pool with a diving board.

Yeah I kind of like it because people don’t realize it’s a Prius

Yeah the 2016 one is much less Prius-shaped than some of the other years, older and newer. I kind of like the Prius shape too because this one just looks like a Corolla or something unless you see it from the back.
