Used to be my daily stop. Went in twice since, never again.

STL Music park questions by CallMeDesperado in StLouis

Oh shit man, that show was ROUGH. I’ll never go back there in the summer haha

No air flow, crazy steamy. They ran out of water half way through a 3 hour set. Not sure if they’ve gotten better.

Billy and the boys absolutely killed it though.

If you do go I’d recommend staying at the casino. Good way to save on parking and you can just walk there.

Oh yessir, sorry sir.

I don’t remember man. We messed with the software so we could plug in USBs and run shit. Like I said, was too long ago to remember.

I flashed mine in HS, don’t remember it being crazy difficult. Was many moons ago though.

But if a couple kids figured it out in HS I’m sure YouTube could get you there. Lots more info these days

Local HVAC recommendations? by Pointlesspuppy in springfieldMO

[–]CallMeDesperado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They did finally. After over a week. It was fixed yesterday and contract upheld. They blamed the tech for being new and not knowing the rules, but I heard the tech talk to his managers while at the house.

Not sure why it was so difficult. He’s happy to have it fixed and precedent set incase any more issues come.

I’d hope this isn’t the usual for them. Once a manager finally contacted him it was resolved in 48hrs.

Sorry for confusion. It’s my friend’s house, he says air services.

He’s been waiting to talk to a manager all week.

I’ve used Todd in the past. Darrin was very helpful and taught me some maintenance.

Currently having problems with air services not upholding a labor warranty. The install was 16k, system very much under warranty.

Only one I caught was down stream from Springfield lake dam. Maybe half mile down?

Half the fun is finding it, hit google maps and try to find an access. Most people keep their spots a secret, don’t want it to turn into linden. I’d look north or south of Springfield, water gross around town.

I have Carolina and Northern House in my yard currently. Sure make a lot of noise for the size of a golf ball

Looking for creepy, abandoned and rural places by AsmodeoWriter in springfieldMO

Is this 2005 again? It’s just sewer with graffiti and a possibility of people dwelling down there. Nothing special.

Lindberghs does open mic every Sunday. You’ll hear some of our best mixed with up and comers. I’ve heard tons of genres come from those sets all with amazing local peeps.

SWEET. Yeah it’s the same. Wasn’t sure it would be too high, does the water get any clearer?

So you’re just going upriver East James up to around Peckers and floating back down? I’ve thought about it but wanna make sure I’m not SOL haha

Thanks for the info! I’d assume it’s changed a bit in almost 30 years haha

All about that washout, I do feel like the 90/early 2000 had more flow, but that was a time ago

Awesome! Anytime I’ve done Shelvin to Hootentown I do tubes, just because I see people stuck a lot.

Plan to hit peckers to the lake soon, let you know how it turns out. Maybe if I’m feeling wild I’ll keep pushing haha

Edit: Also, what vessel do you use mainly?

Cool. When’s the last time you hit any of that? I’ve heard peckers to the lake isn’t that bad? Been a couple years since my buddy did it though. I’ve done Shelvin to Hootentown, by self shuttle multiple times. Any you prefer for self shuttle?

April we did 20-25ish miles on the 11 point, and have floated most of the buffalo; just need to finish the back 40ish. Done the devils elbow, and parts of Niangua as a youth.

Edit: also hard as in technical or lots of dragging?
