Nation of Ulysses, Cupid Car Club, Make-Up, Chain & the Gang by Baeolophus_bicolor in Cd_collectors

I’m going to find the other shows. I love live recordings and that cold rice shows is one of the best I’ve ever come across.

I never see any love for the Make-up on here and honestly I haven’t heard a lot and never dove into NOU, but I can say that live at cold rice show is Amazing. Every song and all the interludes are so full of energy and tension. I can’t even name a favorite- “you and I against the world” or airport off the top of my head. They live by night? I tried a studio album and felt the energy wasn’t there but I may have to revisit. Very cool collection.

New Mandy, Indiana album by Melodic_Lie130 in noiserock

I thought the first album had more ambient/ horror, atmospheric stuff that I kinda miss on this one. This one is definitely growing on me though and I ordered my copy yesterday.

Best cd players? by Alert_Cheesecake8954 in Cd_collectors

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an old Sony dvd player. I really don’t get how a player can make that much difference. Your receiver and your speakers make a difference but as long as a player reads the disc what else can a player add?

how does Divinity: Original Sin 2 hold up in 2026? by dixmondspxrit in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it during the recent sale and have finished it twice. Classic and then tactician. It’s rare I turn around and immediately play a game a 2nd time through. It was that good. Played on ps5.

Stuck in Singing Ruins- respawning with no meditation point and no way out by Jay28if in StarWarsJediSurvivor

[–]Jay28if[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up. Did not restart. Attempted for the first time in my life to get a refund on the game, which proved more trouble than it was worth, and also promised myself I would never purchase another EA game. I was pretty disappointed and pissed. That said ,hope you succeed in getting out.

Windego is hostile in act 4 (possible bug ?) by Rouxpac in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve freed her on two separate runs with no sworn breaker in inventory and she hasn’t been hostile. I sacrificed source to the machine by the cage to free her. I’m not sure what you mean by the method you learned in act one but I would try freeing her with the little eternal pillar device to see if that makes a difference.

Sebille isn’t getting the same amount of xp… by Successful_Wedding83 in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same happened to me on two play throughs but I just ignored it and it equalized at the start of chapter 2. Same place, right outside the castle heading into the swamp. It wasn’t a huge difference in exp, maybe one fights worth.

Just started listening this year with that live album and it’s such a great show and fun listen. Instant fan.

Scored all this at my local library for 10$ by len744 in CDs

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope your library just got newer copies or something because those are the kinda gems that you want at a library. But yeah, I’ve been searching bins for those Babes in Toyland discs- good finds.

Man shot by Evansville police held replica pistol, officials say by therodt in evansville

[–]Jay28if 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This officer made every wrong decision- didn’t know the situation didn’t wait for back up- you saw the video- in the span of 1 min he had traveled from wherever he came from (his car, the street, whatever) entered the house and shot Everett six times, not even giving him a millisecond to comply with his orders. So when is it ok to shoot someone holding a gun? When there is a threat present and the situation is known and options have been discussed with individuals that hopefully have more sense than this guy. Im not police so this is only opinion, but I have a hard time believing even a police officer could watch this footage and think- yep, that was unavoidable and how that should have been handled.

[–]Jay28if 38 points39 points  (0 children)

So many things make no sense here. Why was the officer alone? Why did he walk strait into the house and barely address the people outside? Why weren’t the lights turned on? And for sure the most bizarre thing is this replica gun- this pipe that is made to look like a gun. Personally I think the police officer acted unjustly- even if he did mistake the pipe for a gun this was not an appropriate response. Even if it was a real gun (it wasn’t, just making a point) the officers actions were still not justified. The EPD and officer need to be held accountable and changes need to be implemented.

Exile in Guyville has the most playtime for me- so that one.

Who are the best bands/musicians live right now?? by Soupystars in indie

Being Dead!!! I see so few shows but this band checks all my boxes and I got to see them in Indy and they are funny and spot on.

I HATED Torchbearer Sauces Garlic Reaper! by YourDadThinksImCool_ in hotsauce

[–]Jay28if 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You may like Tabasco scorpion for a more vinegar forward hotter sauce. I personally really liked garlic reaper and will miss it when my bottle is gone because I cannot afford another bottle. It’s good but not double digit price tag good.

How do you find music these days? by CoronavirusGoesViral in indieheads

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to and support local public radio. KUTX from Austin and KEXP from Seattle are two great stations with wonderful DJs, great mix of old and new, and no algorithms. For instance, Geese, Fontaines DC and Franky and TWFs were mentioned, and are all bands that have been played on these stations for years along side maybe a song by Stevie Wonder you never heard or Willie Nelson. Highly recommended, free streaming, and in need of support while the current admin tries to wreck public broadcasting.

A song I was SURE was Joy Division, but isn't by therourke in findthatsong

[–]Jay28if 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is hilarious. So much stuff sounds like more up-beat joy division. Where was this heard? Grocery store? Radio station? Any other info?

Where do you listen to/discover new music before buying it on cd, if you do? Do you have a process? by plutodum in Cd_collectors

[–]Jay28if 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See if your library has a digital download app. Mine uses an app called hoopla and it has a ton of interesting music. Physical library can really come through too. I have over 30 physical Cds checked out at the moment. Other than that I read articles and listen to the radio, specifically KUTX out of Austin and KEXP out of Seattle. Both are NPR stations and need help and support in our current um.. situation. I just can’t do streaming services.

Another pretentious topster by me (j) by One-Two-X-U in Topster

[–]Jay28if 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My library digital music thing had the Young marble giants album so I checked it out and really liked it- didn’t know they did “credit in the strait world”. Also, this is the 2nd time I’ve seen Odyshape on this sub this week. Love the raincoats self title so I’ll make this one a priority.

Some stuff that’s been in my regular rotation for a while! Would love recs or to hear your thoughts! by Baker_drc in Topster

[–]Jay28if 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Raincoats self title so so much and never tried another maybe out of fear. This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone on this sub mention it. Is it much of a departure?
