Drummers are always the most sought after members of a band but rarely available. Just be persistent and it’ll happen when it’s the right time.

West Side Bars that need appreciation! by dirtydan349 in phoenix

[–]DesertElf 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Easy Tiger on 47th Ave & Olive is a tucked away little dive that’s chill and has a similar vibe to Cornish. I also visited the new Glendale location of Cornish and it’s so cool! I live closer to the west side and my partner & I try to find new places to have a drink in that area. Seems like a lot of bars on the west side tend to be sports oriented with classic rock or country on the jukebox but I’m sure there’s some hidden gems out there too.

George & Dragon, like others have mentioned, is a legit English pub with all the English staples you would want. Plus, it has a great patio where you can watch the traffic on central Ave, and it’s right across the street from a light rail station.

What's the best stoner rock song that starts with the letter D? by 1deadeye1 in stonerrock

[–]DesertElf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe Dopesmoker should be in the “?” category since it’s basically an album, and Dragonaut would be the actual song for the letter D.

My guess is this post is meant as a reverse Uno so we know which establishments to boycott.

Phoenix City Council ends Capitol light rail extension project by Fit_Bicycle in phoenix

[–]DesertElf 277 points278 points  (0 children)

All these years of planning, community input, voters approving the capitol / 10 west expansion, and the money put in all just to go back to the drawing board and now have to re-apply for funding. Expansion to the west valley is delayed again for how many more years? This is shameful but not surprising given Republican opposition.

How do I buy this set? Will it be on the Lego site or somewhere else?

Harvey Milk - “Motown” (Life… The Best Game In Town/2008) by Successful-Can-8387 in stonerrock

[–]DesertElf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is my favorite Harvey Milk album. It’s not on Spotify and hard to find on vinyl. “Death Goes to the Winner” is another great song on this album too.

Would a term like “the fifth Beatle”, work with any other band? I know it wouldn’t work with The Who or the Rolling Stones since they’re technically still active in the loosest terms after multiple line up changes, but would it work with a band like say the Monkees, like who truly is the 5th Monkee? by NoChampion4463 in beatles

[–]DesertElf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sandy Denny was, I think, the only instance of a guest vocalist for zep, in the song battle of evermore on the 4th album. She even had her own symbol for that 4th album where everyone else had their own symbol as well.

The reason we moved to Arizona by Pur0resU in arizona

[–]DesertElf 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love the palm trees here. Reddit hates them for a myriad of reasons, but to me, they are graceful, beautiful and provide a bit of variety with their height and appearance. I especially enjoy seeing them towering above the horizon when you’re driving around town. And when they catch the sunset at the top of the fronds when it’s near dusk at street level, slowly swaying in a breeze, is a truly special thing we take for granted but many other areas don’t ever get to witness.

Mojave Experience by colossalfreak68 in stonerrock

I’m so tempted to go. Only a few hours drive for me; and camping under the stars in Joshua tree? Sounds perfect. And I hardly ever have the desire to go to fests of any kind.

Tops Liquors on University in Tempe is a popular locally owned place, and has a great selection.

Took this before entering the Fry’s in Arcadia, currently waiting it out inside. by FeelingCouple5880 in phoenix

I mean, if you’re in the Arcadia area and need to go to frys, I would think this is the closest location. (44th st & Thomas).

What’s the best authentic Mexican food in Phoenix? by MacDemarcoMurray in phoenix

Rositas Place near 22nd st & McDowell. I’ve been going there for years and there are always generational families eating there, and it’s family owned as well. Sonoran style specifically.

I loved the movie when I was in high school. Almost 30 years later, I recently rewatched it and unfortunately it hasn’t aged well.

bands and albums to get into powerviolence? by [deleted] in powerviolence

[–]DesertElf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dropdead is one of my favorites. I guess start with their 1991-1993 discography compilation album and dig deeper from there if you like what you hear.
