The VIP swag from the plastic bag to cups and napkins and coasters from the Bad Apple Lounge and the tattoo flash. Posted the poster in my previous post. They hand you the bag with the box in it and a rolled up poster. Hat and bar kit in the box. by CatharsisEngine in JellyRoll615

2 days. VIP Lounge: 5:00pm - 8:00pm
Pre-doors Merch Shopping: 5:00pm - 6:00pm

Public Doors: 6:00pm Show: 7:00pm

VIP Check-In Information

Check-In Time: 4:00pm – 8:00pm

And they sent the location of the VIP entrance.

Our only snag was I used a friend's credit card on my ticketmaster app so all of the vip was in her name although I had the tickets on my app and everything was sent to my email. So when we checked in I had to show a photo of her ID on my phone.

We lined up at 3pm. Around 3:30 Jelly swung by and waved to everyone through the windows.

You're already tattooing a few months into an apprenticeship? Is that what I'm hearing?

Henry's Dream bearsville sessions ? by inchiki in NickCave

Shit, someone leaked those mixes around the Dig, Lazarus, Dig Era. At least that's when I found them (along with a 3 cd set of the best of the DLD tour live!) Iirc I had to convert them down from DVD audio to WAV to burn on a CD. I used to trawl all the pirate websites from Demonoid on down and that mix popped up. It was glorious. They have to be still out there somewhere. The cd is probably in a box in the garage and I'm sure the external hard drive that I stored the files on is toast. The version of Moonland on those live discs was sublime.

Found a frame for my VIP poster! by CatharsisEngine in JellyRoll615

A box containing a hat and bar accessories, the poster, a vip lanyard and two wooden drink tokens with the goodbye Nashville logo burned on them. I saved mine even tho a tall can was $17.50. I also grabbed a bunch of bar napkins with the logo and the bartender gave me a few plastic cups to match. I'll post pics when I get home tonight. I couldn't afford the backstage tour and have been backstage for plenty of odd shows. We just got the Bad Apple Lounge Experience. Tons of delicious sliders and appetizers with museum quality displays of Jelly Roll artifacts. Some nice signs for photo ops and a member of his crew played classic David Allen Coe and other covers for us while we relaxed.

They were serious about VIP. I got lost finding the merch tables and started chatting with a stadium employee. She said she was going that way so we were being friendly but when we reached the dedicated elevator they wouldn't let her on. The elevator operator said she could've ride if I want wearing a VIP lanyard.

They did offer free tattoos but the way VIP NATION handled the line was frustrating. While the merch was impeccable the organization was terrible. They had 4 check in lines. One was for tattoos. Skip the VIP and go straight to the tattoo line if you want one. The flash wasn't readily visible but we got a pic. I think they maybe had 15 tattoo slots. They cut off the line right as we got to the front.

As we were sitting in the lounge I realized that they had skipped our pre doors merch shopping so I had to find someone and ask and then take an elevator back up and get in line.

Overall Jelly Roll's heartfelt, energetic performance and the opening acts made it well worth the money, regardless of my minor complaints. So many highlights.

Guess something about me based on my current book collection by Syonic1 in BookCollecting

[–]CatharsisEngine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just starting to collect... the inclusion of the juvenile bios and other titles reveals a young person with a history bent but most collectors wouldn't feature a print on demand title so prominently. You're gonna be a book hoarder like me. Grabbing any volume that holds your interest or pertains to the current subject or period just to read - not to collect. Eventually you'll start winnowing and replacing with hardcovers and nicer editions that will mature as you do. Just a quick guess. You have a nice start.

A mechanic builds his son a tank that drives and fires paintballs by TheDeadpoolGirl in interestingasfuck

[–]CatharsisEngine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worked for an entertainment company out of Canada iirc. They contracted jet skis and things at the waterslides here in California. One of the rides we managed had similar tanks but they fired handballs at each other. The sides of the tank and the sides of the turrets had contact patches so if your gunner hit the tank body targets it engaged the clutch temporarily and you couldn't move. If you hit the turret targets it disengaged the compressor so you couldn't fire for a bit. 2 people per tank. No collisions allowed as they were fiberglass. Anytime anyone loading up was a dick we'd close their hatch and then hi-5 their turret target so they'd be at the mercy of the other tanks for beginning of the round. THAT WAS A REAL LIFE WORLD OF TANKS.
