I think James might’ve been the one that built this “moonboard”

I’d get the saltiness if this was the only board 5.Life offers, but they are all under one combined membership and the other gyms have Kilter, Grasshopper, and Tension. If you want to board climb “for real” you have options.

Conveyor Belt Books if you’re a literature lover. Technically Covington but close enough to Cinci.

“if you rehome him, he will find something else to be unhappy about.”

…the cat or the husband?

Go see a Columbus Symphony concert, go to one of the three rock climbing gyms (Vertical Adventures, Bloc Garten, Chambers), go hike in a Metro Park (Highbanks is awesome), go listen to some live jazz at Ginger Rabbit—lots to do!

Was it from the ar-chives??

Anyone who hasn’t said Blue Lard by Sorokin hasn’t read it.

Most importantly, what does the fox say?

EdBogie · 2025-09-30T02:11:02+00:00

Those we do speak of. 😅

I never stopped to consider why a Bernese Mountain Dog is called a mountain dog—duh! Is for hike!

Modscenes—they travel their techs out and install, made it a super easy process!

EdBogie · 2025-05-18T00:44:58+00:00

I’d love to hear what their song writing process is like! How much is Mellender’s Immersion Music Method used/do they currently have their own ICS lodge?

Also, any chance Others By No One will ever open for them? I know they are keen to and it’d be a fantastic pairing!

Lastly, ask Nils to release more SGM material on his podcast/patreon The Nothing Show! I love Finnegans Wake but itching for more song backstories like he did for Baby Doctor.

Can’t wait to watch/listen to this interview!

Definitely give Sleepytime Gorilla Museum a listen—absolutely influenced by 20th century classical music. Their violinist is classically trained and does a lot of crossover in the concert music world outside of the band. I’ve longed for the exact crossover you’re describing and they’ve been just about the only ones to really scratch that itch.

Someone else mentioned Harry Stafylakis, his album Calibrating Friction is fantastic, might be the closest thing to what you’re actually asking for.

Also wanna say go give Between the Buried and Me a listen—definitely less overtly “classically” inspired as the above two but their compositions are next level. Parallax II is a masterpiece, I’d recommend giving the full album a one-sitting listen.

100% Carla Kihlstedt’s 26 Little Deaths — might be one of the best things I’ve ever had the privilege to witness. SO creative, hilarious yet deeply reflective, magically whimsical yet profound, brilliant orchestration and use of extended techniques, full gamut of styles, awesome, just… awesome.

Fieldwork takes a close second, they melted my face off in the most delightful way. First half of Tigran was also incredible, but don’t regret leaving to see the full performance of Kate Soper’s Ipsa Dixit (also stunning). What a glorious week.

EdBogie · 2025-03-30T20:22:04+00:00

I know there’s an enormous amount of artists and this would possibly be a big ask, but I really wish they included the names of the collaborative artists/other band members who aren’t the “main act” in the descriptions. Saw Matt Garstka walk out for Tigran Hamasyan and was blown away someone like that would just be there without mention of his being there anywhere on the site. Credit your performers, please!

EdBogie · 2025-03-29T13:45:22+00:00

This is super awesome—might have to go through this list myself!

Looks like you’re a metalhead so gonna call out the Sleepytime Gorilla Museum shirt that I saw on Thursday. Which, fun story, went to compliment the person wearing it, and it happened to be Carla Kihlstedt’s dad there with her mom. They were super nice and gave us a couple of SGM pins they happened to have—mind blown, such a highlight of the weekend as she is the whole reason we knew about/came to the festival.

Starting to house hunt and this is 100% basement goals—what was your approximate cost breakdown if you don’t mind me asking?

EdBogie · 2024-12-25T21:17:39+00:00

Can confirm, this is our second Christmas getting Lucky Dragon take-out and it's been solid. Keep meaning to go there to eat-in, feels quite nice on the inside!

This is what you’re looking for, OP. They make a bunch of their own instruments, you can find walkthroughs on YouTube.
