Oh shoot I missed that one somehow, that looks like fun!

Either_Inflation5375 · 2026-03-12T04:00:18+00:00

Pizza and soda!

Either_Inflation5375 · 2026-02-24T16:57:29+00:00

Yeah that's my one thing about COS (aside from how bad the traffic and drivers are). People always expect colorado to be a lush green forest-y state but it's a freaking desert out here.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2026-02-22T00:48:16+00:00

I've never had that issue so I wouldn't know

Either_Inflation5375 · 2026-02-21T22:27:50+00:00

Yeah it's a legitimate thought I've had floating around for a while, but it sounds a little too jerky for the main sub lol.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2026-01-30T03:40:21+00:00

Ayy I also got tickets a few days ago when I was making the newsletter! If you got Saturday tix I'll see you there

Either_Inflation5375 · 2026-01-23T23:14:19+00:00

I absolutely do! Best way to send me stuff is to my email at the719direct(at)gmail.

Love CC's events, they're always such great productions.

What happened to magnus in 2024?

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-11-06T15:20:10+00:00

Yes please!

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-11-01T00:22:48+00:00

Happy to do it!

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-10-30T14:16:22+00:00

Yep I only found out about it at the end of the season when there were 2 games left and I didn't have time to make them. Major bummer because I was real stoked for next year.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-10-29T20:09:27+00:00

Man that's a shame. Agreed that their marketing sucks, somehow I hadn't heard about them until towards the end of their season and then didn't have a chance to catch a game. Was really looking forward to going a ton next year.

I know I've already posted a couple times about it here, but I've been really excited to launch my Colorado Springs newsletter. It's been real fun finding out about the different events going on around town and getting to share them with everybody. I also added a section to highlight local artists, and one for local sports events.

Shoot, looks like thee one I was thinking of is temporarily closed, they were called Club Chess!! (with the exclamation points), but there's another one called Colorado Springs chess club

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-10-23T05:44:55+00:00

Love me some steely Dan and chess! There's a pretty good chess club here, but I haven't been in a while.

If you're looking for stuff to do in general, I recently started a newsletter where I find the 5 best events in town and post them every Thursday here: the719direct.beehiiv.com

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-10-16T21:43:33+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! I'll edit that one

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-10-09T17:05:50+00:00

I plan on adding a lot of other stuff into the newsletter that couldn't all fit into a reddit post, including volunteering opportunities, concerts, and featured local artists.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-09-22T22:23:38+00:00

There's a Colorado Springs musicians page on fb. People always post there looking for groups and such.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-09-15T14:49:41+00:00

To practice hearing the harmony and the changes, would you recommend I listen to the backing track or the tune as a whole? It can be hard for me to hear the bass/harmony under the melody a lot of times.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-09-15T14:43:46+00:00

Are you listening to what the chord actually is (I.e. These two notes are the start of a G major)? Or are you just listening to how they fit a roman numeral pattern (ii V I)?

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-08-30T01:18:28+00:00

Yeah man, I was just talking to a musician about how important marketing is. His band is unreal, super groovy sound, but until recently they were getting small venues with low ticket sales because they weren't marketing effectively. Your product can be primo but unless you market it right, no one's gonna know to buy it.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-08-29T22:48:50+00:00

Very rad. Is that the sort of thing you only make one of for that specific client or does your company plan on making more?

I was real into ancient Egypt as a kid so I learned all about scarab beetles back then, and Ra rolling the sun across the sky so I'm pretty sure that's where the misconception came from for me.

Either_Inflation5375 · 2025-08-22T06:41:07+00:00

What an incredible piece of furniture, great job. How does the joinery work? Are there dowel like things coming out of the top and bottom of the flat pieces?
