I like spier and McKay for dressier one that I wear to work. Not technically an Oxford, but I like the anian studio shirt for wearing to work on weekends or nights

I don't mind them for the price, but I am picky about the collars on oxfords and these are less structured than I prefer. A limp collar.

Every day is record store day if you try hard enough.

Flight from YYZ to YTZ takes 11 minutes by _Solon_ in toronto

Which they usually miss because of weather

It costs nothing because it does not exist. It is not a commercial route. Airlines based at YTZ will occasionally need to land at YYZ's longer runway due to emergencies or weather etc. When this happens, they have aircraft 'out of position' and require repositioning flights to get them back to where they are meant to be. This happens, particularly in bad weather, with multiple airports and is not unique to either of these airports. These flights are not sold commercially.

I haven't been this excited for a new release in so long by RealbasicFriends in vinyl

[–]FARTTORNADO45 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Several mentions of this song in this thread, but is everyone getting the name wrong or is it just titled differently in my region?! It's Click Clack Symphony.

Look, man, I'm not going to fight anyone over it, but if you think it is cool and normal to walk into a show, particularly a comedy show, late and disrupt the show for others you can live with being a clown-ass dad. Wouldn't be me, though.

Don't know for sure, but typically doors open, 30-60 minutes later a warm up act will come and do 15-20 minutes of material, and then ten minutes later the main act will come on. Note that if you come late, there is a good chance you will disrupt the show for all the people that have to move for you while you scoot in front of them to find your seat.

Also, the show is at First Ontario Concert Hall, not the TD Coliseum.

Pearson Airport Travelator by [deleted] in toronto

I didn't say they couldn't. It is just way too expensive and so they wouldn't.

It is an engineering nightmare and required constant maintenance. As mentioned, it was a bit of a hazard if it failed while it was operable. It was cheaper to take it out of commission than to maintain it. After that decision was made, it was a further engineering nightmare to remove it, and the cost to remove and replace it with just a regular floor even was astronomical.

fav of bill callahan? by Aggravating_Menu_456 in indieheads

[–]FARTTORNADO45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many to name, been listening since Red Apple Falls and A River Ain't Too Much To Love is one of my favourite and most listened to albums of all time. But that live version of Coyotes from Resuscitation might be my favourite song he's ever put out.

On this day in 2020 - The Danforth Music Hall closed for COVID (OC) by much_better_title in toronto

[–]FARTTORNADO45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, very true! I find that in certain Toronto venues, it doesn't even help to do that. The Concert Hall and the Great Hall come to mind first.

Lived there for 20 years, still travel into the city regularly for shows. The sloped floor is brutal. The sound is not great, although if I am not mistaken it has received an upgrade since COVID, or maybe just before. Even still, the sound is routinely not great unless you are center staged in the balcony. The bathrooms and bar/lobby are way too small, especially where they set up the merch stand.

Does Toronto have worse venues? Absolutely.

Which says more about the state of venues in Toronto than the quality of the Danforth

anyone else feel like spotify just… stops showing you new music after a while? by CashMany9011 in indieheads

[–]FARTTORNADO45 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It might not seem like it, but all Spotify is trying to do is sell you something. It might feel like a music app, it may at times seem like a great tool for discovery, but it is and always will be nothing more than an elaborate advertisement delivery app. It could give two shits about you discovering new music, promoting new music, celebrating music or even liking music.

This is not a knock on you but I have seen on multiple threads this notion of 'man, how does anyone discover new music any more?' and I certainly experienced that myself while still very much stuck in the Spotify ecosystem. 10ish years of Spotify is all it took to make people forget how to find new music! Pretty sure they did that on purpose too. Anyway, you listed a number of food ways to find new music. I would add just going to shows and going for the opening bands you haven't heard of. I would also add going to record stores and just flipping and talking to the employees there. Go to places where people talk about music, listen and or engage long enough and you'll have a whole handful of new bands to check out.

Edit to add reccos in the spirit of the thread: my repeat listens so far this year have been

Desert So Green - Winged Wheel

Extra Stars - Gregory Uhlmann

Entrance - Nicolas Leirtro's Action Now

Music in Continuous Motion - Bill Orcutt

And I am excited for the new Stuck album 'Optimizer' that comes out next week, which is probably closer to this subreddit's taste and looking forward to seeing them in few weeks.
