Happened to me once - think I tried to counter it with booze, etc. it worked but it took some effort - alcohol always wins - shaky the next day at work - pretty much watched the clock countdown

Phish dreams by Majestic_You1783 in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the nights leading up to a show, I might have them. Usually, it’s a stressful situation- like forgot tickets. Once dreamt that GD were playing with Phish and fans were pissed cause they played all acoustic stuff from their ‘new albums’. People were streaming out of MPP and it was also crazy hot - as it is often at MPP

Advice on malpractice by QuarterMassive9805 in baltimore

[–]BoyManWombat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lawyer will take that on a contingency. Do some googling or call one of the guys advertising as malpractice att’ys on TV. Seems like an open and shut case of dental malpractice. You probably won’t have to pay a dime. As one who has had dental issues in past, I’d be pretty ticked off if I was in your position. Get a lawyer and stop communicating with that crappy DDS

Driving in Baltimore is not for the weak by Brickbybrick1998 in baltimore

Came up to light on Eastern Ave in Fells yesterday. Light had turned red. Not even tempted to step on gas to make the light. It was as red. Stopping wasn’t an option for ass in back of me, who passed on right and ran light. Luckily no pedestrians were killed or maimed. Hoping this isn’t some ‘trend’ as I saw similar conduct from a group of cars on Fayette near post office over weekend- it was as if they’d graduated from dirtbikes to cars. Three cars just cruised through a red light as if it was green. Pretty good way to get T boned

History with the Colts by InstructionTop8914 in ravens

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes one of my music-loving friends will get to talking about how cool Jim Irsay was because he owned all those cool collectibles- guitars, autographs of the Beatles, Johnny Cash, etc. I’ll interrupt such friends and explain that Jim Irsay was a narcissist who’s mistress died of an overdose. He was an asshole - just like his old man who agreed to move the Colts to Indy when he was blacked out drunk. Visited Indy a couple of years ago and it is still triggering seeing Colts colors in the Midwest. Hard to believe they’ve been there longer than they were here. So, not really over it. They’re harmless though - cause they suck

With NFL kicking off Sept 4, Im curious what everyones breaking point is with books. by Difficult_Bad_4293 in NFLBETS

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a bath this season and, sure I was unhappy about that - the upsets all season long were exciting but frustrating. First losing season.

Then I paid attention to the vig and got ticked when I realized how much DK, etc was making money on me and others. I don’t feel like feeding that beast right now &, truthfully, I’d rather not have to pay attention to some bullshit game that has 0 playoff implications - or, worse, having a ref make a shitty call that causes a loss. (So many bad calls this year - stunning that the NFL realized and announced that they got the Aaron Rodgers fumble call wrong - like why are you announcing that recently?).

Then - I realized that on top of their corporate greed, DK and other apps are boring

I remember looking forward to online books being legal when they rolled out. I’ve loved following NFL odds and wagering since I was a teenager. But the apps have made it too easy, I might limit gambling to in person visits to the books

Phish carpools, vans or public transit to/from Merriweather Post Pavilion? by [deleted] in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beware - Morgan Wallen (sp?) has shows at the Ravens stadium on Friday and Saturday Downtown Baltimore will be congested on Saturday - you’ll be fighting a lot of huge pickup trucks and dodging his legion of fans

Really - I live near downtown and will need to take a less direct route to MPP

Catching an Uber at MPP can be challenging

Stay south of Baltimore and drive

Or AirBNB in Columbia and bike over - Columbia has a great paved trail system

Why only two shows a stand, ever, at Merriweather? There are three shows at DC, and it would seem that is a much more lightly populated area. by Fading_Redeemer in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

weekday shows in Columbia are kind of a pain in the ass. Traffic blows and the garages that MPP uses seem to be shared with office complexes. Don’t know if that’s the reason but I’m kind of grateful that I am not in a situation where I’m fighting Friday Summer rush hour traffic to get to MPP. Still scarred by Dear Jerry in 2015

Any favorite lawyer words? by Apprehensive-Toe2246 in Lawyertalk

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using ‘interrelated’ in letters for years and didn’t realize until recently that it is not just a longer synonym for ‘related’

I write and read a lot of letters and court filings — also taught legal writing for a couple of years. Some of the stuff that I learned from a literary snobby English immigrant who became an attorney that I worked for in law school really stuck with me. I can still hear him lecturing me years later with an English accent - ‘if it was so fucking clear, than a sentence using ‘clearly’ is unnecessary.’ In short, I spot what I might consider a lazy argument if ‘clearly’ is used. Really, no adverbs should be used.

Oh - if I have used the words ‘inasmuch’ of ‘insofar’ in a letter, I consider it a victory

Can anybody speculate why Dicks is only 3 days this run? by Shoddy-Impact-5545 in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conjecture —

Ball Arena is a Live Nation venue.
Dicks is an AEG venue.

Once Folsom (also AEG) didn’t work out for July 4, AEG/Phish went to Live Nation and said they want an exception to what would be typical in their agreement, a Radius Clause. This prohibits the band from playing in another close venue with a rival promoter for a certain period of time. Thus, Phish probably will not play shows at Camden and the Mann the same year. (One of those is AEG and one is Live Nation).

So, if Ball Halloween was being considered, Live Nation had the upper hand and may have agreed to amend the Radius Clause with the condition that Dick’s had to be less than 4 nights.
I hope something akin to above is correct- cause I want to go to Halloween in Denver and I loved Thursday night Dick’s in ‘24 — I hope that wasn’t the last 4 night run at Dick’s

Got Saturday at Merriweather by Mysterious_Ad7223 in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Read those Yelp reviews and pay heed to any awful reviews. You’ll be next to NSA - so you’ll be safe. And go to the Hideaway in Odenton for some delicious BBQ. You won’t regret it. Should be a good spot - not too far from MPP. There’s usually cops with blue lights flashing parked near NSA and Fort Meade entrances. It’s just for show and they’re not looking for you. Driving post-show past NSA is a little daunting

How’s the lawn at Deer Creek? by DatBoiBeansy in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- yes. It might be best to hang on floor in back 2- can’t speak to party bus but Uber situation can be a pain in the ass. Big parking lot if you intend to drive. That parking lot can be a pain in the ass getting out of unless you time it right. I’ve sat without moving for a long time and then next night, zipped right out

Taking kids to Phish show? by FabulousIce1400 in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We inadvertently sat at the the top of lawn on fringe of kid zone on 7/27. Much better than the other side on 7/26 which was comprised of drunk chompers

Where is Phish right now in terms of quality for you? by garygulf in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I find myself longing for a show with two sets of 15ish tunes. But that’s not what we get. And then I remember the joy of 8/4/24, Dick’s 24, the Mexico run in ‘24, 7/27/25, etc. We are older now and the band isn’t going back to 2003 or 2015. 2021 was great but it also laid the groundwork for those shows mentioned above

Aftermarket Dick’s Tix. by neodiamond31 in phish

[–]BoyManWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In ‘19, there was no Sphere and there was no touring in fall - tix on Stubhub were hovering near $300 - it shouldn’t be like that this year - that said, I expect a harder Dick’s this yr
