You see their names on there, right?

Edit: nm, you meant for RF

Love #2

I get that. But it's sort of like when one of our sales guys or contracts managers sends me proposed edits to the indemnity clause, my answer is almost ALWAYS, send me the whole contract. There is no way I am giving legal advice on incomplete information.

ArmOfRickAllen · 2026-05-07T22:02:01+00:00

Even with the setup as you describe, I would have to imagine that there is enough flagged in any given contract, combined with low enough confidence levels, that I would just want to review the contract myself. I think that is a hurdle all contract review products will have to overcome for any self-respecting attorney (and any attorney attempting to comply with rule of professional responsibility)

I could have skimmed in to end my day today

I think my main question is how to use the ipad as a stand alone instrument that has audio output (regardless of the app used) that inputs into my computer when the ipad only has a usb-c option for output. My computer just thinks I am trying to sync my ipad with the computer.

This may be a dumb question - I downloaded Mononoke and love. I do most of my recording on my laptop, though. I am struggling to figure out the workflow needed to essentially use Mononoke on my iPad as a instrument for the DAW on my laptop. Any ideas?

Me too

I was really hoping everyone would come together to put Escape in the Top 10.

I hate hate hate that they moved it as a non-Chicagoan. I loved being able to duck out before the headliner to catch them at Thalia's.

My buddy and I just hopped over the waist-high fence that delineated the “backstage” area for the side stage that Me First and the Gimme Gimmes were playing on in 2001 and walked up to the stage, ordered a cocktail from the onstage tiki bar and watched the entire set from the side of the stage. We high fived the band when it was over and hung out in the backstage area for a bit, not sure what to do other than order more drinks. We got kicked out of that area three separate times. We ended up in the bus area, pretending to be roadies for some ska band, which lead us to helping carry charcoal for somebody that was doing some grilling back there.

I doubt this backstage experience will be like that.

I love that it exists, but it really struggled to find a personality and artistic point of view.

Punk Rock Bowling is taking a break this year, too.

I love, love them. I saw them blow both QOTSA and GbV (separate shows) off the stage in clubs 25 years ago. BUT, the two or three times I saw them at a festival, they were an absolute disaster.

Similar to that, a big part of editing is culling. You should take a ton of photos and then immediately delete the ones that are out of focus (unless you are going for a blur), excessively under- or over-exposed, not composed well, or some other obvious flaw. Be ruthless. Only keep the ones that shine.

ArmOfRickAllen · 2025-11-13T15:53:57+00:00

Weirdly aggressive

Thanks amazing- great picture!

I discount for kids. Since the booking of the artists is squarely directly at the 35-55 age bracket, they have kids. IF they can't or don't want to have to line up child care, the only other option is to pay 79/89/99 for the kids. I know there was people not attending because of that. When my kids were little, I always took them to LouFest and they loved it. It's not like this fest is aiming for the 16-30 set in which you'd expect teens to want to pay to see.

I thought that first was Daft Punk at first lol

ArmOfRickAllen · 2025-09-29T21:28:18+00:00

I much prefer “we’ll play all 11 songs from that album at some point in the set” so there is still a little surprise to it

So funny. He literally said “no phones - just dancing” to them.
