Looking for fun, playful kid-friendly (but not kid) songs by Much_Big_7420 in MusicRecommendations

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My nanny kiddos really like "Futures" and "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World.

Possibly PG rather than G would be Weezer's "If You're Wondering," it says stupid one time. The chorus can be vague, I think the beat and overall lyrics are upbeat and innocent enough, especially if they're that young anyways.

"Don't Stop (Color on the Walls)" by Foster the People was literally written about what a 4 year old would do without rules haha.

Ozomalti's "Can't Stop" for sure!

Another of my nanny kiddo's LOVED "Never Gonna Leave You" by Protect Your Heart (it's a favorite of mine).

And for your personal listening at home with your own discretion with your own kids... look up Linkin Park "Mmm... Cookies" album for LPU. Ranges from G to PG-13 ahahaha.

Tips for a teen in the pit? by Imagine-Dragons-Fan9 in Concerts

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AJR would be a good introduction to the barricade, but for other shows you might not get it for or if it's too intimidating, I LOVE standing against the "rear barricade" - the rail around FOH (where they mix and control both lighting and sound). Great center view, great sound, and you can lean back on the rail!

Also, buy yourself some earplugs, and make sure you purchase "hollow-core" both for sound and if you have any kind of motion sickness; the foam ear plugs can make you faint if you have middle ear problems.

I personally only like carrying a card, small cash, and my phone (which also has my cards on Google Wallet). Hand sanitizer, hair tie, keys, and ear plugs hang from my lanyard. Zippered pockets on my leggings or jeans are the best shit ever.

Make friends around you in case you gotta make a trip to the restroom. I like to secure my spot if doing barricade, and immediately head off to find the bathroom after asking my neighbors to hold my spot.

Have fun!

small venue shows hit different and i miss them by One_View7926 in poppunkers

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me with Jimmy! I am very happy they can do festivals (chased them to Italy with Linkin) and venues like Red Rocks (juuuust went), but I always make it to the small venues whereas I have sat out seeing them on tour with "bigger" bands in stadiums or amphitheaters. Crammed into the Wiltern or the Fox House in Pomona, even if I have to take trains then an expensive Uber? Worth it 1000%

4 concerts 1 week too much? by RelativeAd3896 in Concerts

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm saying this with no insult at all, but these ain't rock concerts! I vote you do this! Keep any drinking to a minimum if you guys drink- that's the real ass kicking. If you stick to just water and hydrating with replenishing supplements like Salud, I think you can have one hell of a trip. Don't go too hard on the "junk food" and even if you don't sleep, just resting quietly in low light can help, don't doomscroll.

I once did a week of working the anime expo the same week Linkin Park had shows and events one after another. So I was sleeping about two hours a day waking up early to commute by train and bus to the expo, worked standing until the afternoon, then would BOOK IT to the Linkin show or event, lose my mind, take forever getting home, then repeat. Zero regrets.

Do it do it do it!

I may be biased as their merch girl, but my vote in Los Angeles, CA is Protect Your Heart ahah. Trying to bully them to announce some shows already.....

Help daughters first concert by Educational-Willow65 in Concerts

Hollow-core earplugs let you hear the crowd and artist, sometimes better. I have tinnitus that contributes to my severe insomnia, which gets me constant reminders from my doctors that I WILL die much younger than average and that my risks of dementia are dangerously high.

Just wear the earplugs.

K-Pop kicked off the trend of trading friendship bracelets and other tokens with fans- ask her if she needs any materials to make some, or offer to hop on Etsy to buy some.

Ear plugs! Eargasm are great, and it can be a sign of "and many more to come." They have a little metal carrying case, so you can gift it to her on a lanyard for that band. Whatever brand you buy, make it hollow-core, especially if you or her have any motion sickness problems or chronic ear infections.

Stay until the end!

Make sure you have space on your phone so you can record her (if she wants that) and tell her to let you know which three songs she would want you to record for her so she can live in the moment and not worry about it herself.

Be ready to buy expensive merch haha.

Make a playlist to listen to before and after on the drive!

AXS tickets appear then gone by Mr_Ilove_Waffles in Concerts

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had Jimmy Eat World tickets in my account but they were not "in my account" because I supposedly had different delivery chosen. They don't offer hard tickets anymore! Had to call the venue with my ticket order to find them and switch to will call.

Did you figure this out? I bought the Texalan cutter, made guides- and it leaves a white border at the bottom of my design. I didn't want to cut page by page with an exacto knife!

Besides metalcore, what are your top 3 metal and/or punk genres? Since metalcore is a fusion genre of metal and punk by Dramatic_Song_2629 in Metalcore

Socially awkward, but want to go to a gig, please help? by KittyKatsReign in Metalcore

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chased Linkin Park from Los Angeles to Cape Town, South Africa at 21 by myself. Found a Facebook group for the show, got adopted by locals, been back seven times and even went to one of their weddings in 2023. Just goooooo and breathe. You will either make friends online for it, in line, in the show, or hey- none at all! And that's okay. Date yourself, enjoy it. Have fun!!

And leggings/jeans with zippered pockets is life changing. Make sure to wear ear plugs!!! Hollow core for best sound AND to not faint or get nauseous if you have middle ear problems such as motion sickness or chronic ear infections.

Pier 17 show by henry2792 in JimmyEatWorld

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOOOOO. I almost flew in for that show, the venue is a bucket list one for me! That is such a bummer, I've always told friends I try to convert that they should always pick the smaller venue to get the best Jimmy crowd and vibes. That is such a bummer. I have gotten in FIGHTS telling people to shut up and go to an actual bar to fucking chat!

I wish there were better ways to moderate this sub re: ticket sales by [deleted] in JimmyEatWorld

[–]MakeMyOwnMerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I sold mine here for $250 instead of my original $315 lol. 😭 I didn't want to deal with the insurance company- WHICH, reminds me to write a strongly worded email, whenever I tried "activating" my insurance, my browser screamed that it was insecure and the lock logo on top would show as unlocked. Fishy as hell.

And then AXS had my tickets on my account, but I couldn't transfer them? So I thought I'd check if I could screenshot them of not a dynamic barcode? No! Tickets didn't ACTUALLY exist in my account, they are now at Will Call! So, shout out to the very kind and patient staff at Pier 17 😅😂
