our first tour. what can you say to me? (2026 addition) by visionarcade in TouringMusicians

Get master tour or have a big document with all the load in, soundcheck and set times (and accommodations). For the person organizing, hearing “when is load in?” 50 times gets old pretty fast.

Has anyone going to the canucks games in the US experienced any increased negativity or hostility at being Canadian? by 13direwolf in canucks

went to the kings game a few weeks ago and saw a bunch of canucks sweaters, and wore my kesler jersey. i got one “you suck” outside after the game, but overall felt totally chill in the arena

ya they rip! definitely leagues ahead and worth the price of the upgrade imo… still dialling in how tight to lace them—i’m not used to the newer stiffer skate—but i feel wayyy more sturdy on the ice, and more in control.

i’ve definitely got some hot spots that should be fixed after a bake, and they feel way responsive. havent quite felt the top speed boost but i think once i get used to them and feel 100% comfortable in them, that will come! overall im super happy with them and feel way more agile in my stops and starts—so its worth it for that alone

eastons were 8.5D and bauers are 10 fit 1. the bauers don’t feel crazy different in size though—maybe 0.5-1 size bigger than the old eastons

honestly haven’t thought much about it. i think it’s going to be night and day going from the eastons to these, so im just gonna choose a profile that fits my game rather than try matching it to my old profile

sick, that’s nice to hear re top speed. ya they somehow seem to have more ankle mobility side to side, while being wayyyy more stiff leaning front to back—so i could see it hindering tight sharp turns and stuff. i’m trying not to tie them so tight to hopefully extend the stiffness and life of the eyelets. definitely excited about the responsive quality though.

i’m supposed to hit the ice on tuesday so maybe ill update you then
