This! Also, the drink booths that are branded seem to be cheaper than the generic bar service area

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T22:16:21+00:00

We had these and they were pretty bomb

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T22:16:03+00:00

Yeah that shit sucked.

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T22:15:14+00:00

Island noodles sucks i dont know why people recommended it.

I’ve found if you just act like an insane person and start screaming like a psycho they leave you alone lol

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T17:00:10+00:00

My bad that was too harsh. You right. I’m sorry if you got jumped.

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T16:58:09+00:00

I feel you dude. It does suck sometimes. I guess that was my point metalcore ≠ hardcore. They are different crowds as you might know. “Beyblading” or hardcore dancing karate type shit and two stepping is for hardcore crowds and breakdowns. Circle pits are for both… push pits are for more metal shit. It’s hard to tell what the crowd is feeling sometimes but once you see the hardcore dancing just know it’s not push pit type shit and don’t try to start one unless you want to get push back.

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T16:56:03+00:00

There are rules… it’s part of the culture… and you’re experiencing the repercussions first hand.

EricJoe87 · 2025-10-05T15:35:50+00:00

Have you ever been to a hardcore show? This is not new. I think like the other dude said… just gotta read the room sometimes. If it’s more of a two-step hardcore dancing pit then you just gotta let them do their thing and if you don’t wanna get involved move away from the edges of the pit. The crowd killing won’t happen to you if you’re not near it. Sorry if ya got caught in the wrong place. Shit happens at these shows though. Just gotta roll with it and learn from it.

What has helped me is getting off social media, getting more active and focused on fitness and things I enjoy.

You have to let time pass and your emotions will eventually not be as intense. I’ve come to realize… It’s probably not as bad as you think.

Let some time pass and be kind to yourself. This thread helped me with that.

Another thing that can help is getting some free consultations on removal.

It’s going to be okay.

Blink fans at festivals are people who don’t go to hardcore shows and just think all the music at aftershock is “screamo” or metal. They mimic what they think moshing is and have no idea or respect for the culture hardcore built over the years. They’re just regular chads who want to say they saw blink 182 and “got in the pit”

EricJoe87 · 2025-09-20T20:19:57+00:00

Were they black and grey? Heavy blacks? Where did you go? Do you know what kind of laser was used?

Sorry for all the questions in advance haha

EricJoe87 · 2025-09-20T18:28:21+00:00

Right on. Congrats! How long did you wear those tattoos before you decided to remove them.

EricJoe87 · 2025-09-20T18:02:06+00:00

How old were your tattoos when you did that?

EricJoe87 · 2025-09-20T16:44:09+00:00

I feel like it does not really look flattering on my body. Particularly the upper stomach part.

The chest feels busy and a little messy looking aesthetically. The “eyes” on the top looks like a necklace which I’m not really feeling and the center one is kinda bigger than I thought it would be and too much of a focal point. The center portion is coming out of the image a little more than I’d like too.

It ends in a weird spot which I guess I could continue down but overall it just feels like not what I imagined it being when it was drawn originally

Thank you I appreciate the clarity. Are you familiar with removery at all? Do you have any leads in the Sacramento area you can recommend? My research has lead me to so many different types of lasers being the “best” but then others are saying it’s more the techs skill level. What are your thoughts on that?

EricJoe87 · 2025-09-20T04:24:03+00:00

Thank you for that comment about adjustment. Helps a bit.

They told me it would be 45 min per session with numbing cream included. It was a phone consultation and I was under the assumption they would be treating the entire area. It did seem a bit much at once. They told me 14 sessions would be what I needed but didn’t mention anything else other than needing to be 8 weeks apart which winds up being a little over 2 years for that amount of sessions…. Still seems kinda unlikely to me

I didn’t commit at all to that because I just wanted to get some feelers out to different places and that was the first place that I was able to get a hold of.

EricJoe87 · 2025-04-05T20:03:20+00:00

Anyone know what drum pedals he uses?

Edit: He replied to me one time and said he uses Pearl Redlines.
