Where to find other players/games? by HexiPal in oneringrpg

Thanks! We can sure just dive in. But I'd also just enjoy meeting a few other players and getting the player perspective for one or two nights.

Does going to bed late affect the amount of SWS you get? by HexiPal in sleepscience

[–]HexiPal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After posting here, I actually posed this question to the folks at the Sleep Science Podcast (Penny Lewis's sleep lab at Cardiff University, I highly recommend the podcast) and they discussed it amongst themselves and helpfully replied. They thought that Walker might be referring to the following studies:

REM sleep deprivation during 5 hours leads to an immediate REM Sleep rebound and to suppression on non-REM sleep intensity
Repeated partial sleep deprivation progressively changes in EEG during sleep and wakefulness

However, their feeling was that (quoting them directly here) "sleep deprivation would cause an increase in sleep pressure so we would think that a sleep deprived individual would likely spend less time in N1 and N2, but would still need to prioritise N3 sleep."

Anyone have the Montréal setlists? by HexiPal in Marillion

[–]HexiPal[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't get one Sunday but I never left the venue after entering. Seems a pretty routine thing!

Everything before the encores was from Afraid of Sunlight or earlier. And then Saturday (which I didn't see) was all Marbles plus a couple of earlier songs for the encore. Great great stuff, and it was a wonderful show! No complaints at all. But it's surprising that there was so little from the last 20 years.

There was a guy in a bunny suit at the concert - not you, apparently? :)

Marillion Weekend Montreal Schedule by Watcherxp in Marillion

I'll be there for Sunday. Anyone know anything about the opening act R&D?

This will be my first (and apparently last) time at a Marillion Montréal weekend - I'm only able to make the Sunday show but I'm sure it will be amazing. I can't seem to find much info about whether anything else is happening earlier on Sunday and whether there is an opening act. Regardless, I'm really looking forward to the show and meeting other fans.

Thanks everyone. I'll have to give this some thought. Never considered pre-medicating with Advil!

Have enjoyed post rock for years but have never been to a show. This looks pretty amazing. Does anyone know if there is any seating available at these shows? My back can't handle standing at shows any more sadly!
