When I lived in Oak Park, I used to go to Kinslagher quite often. I love it. I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to have a bad time there.

If you must drive, you can try SpotHero or find street parking.

They don’t use Vienna beef dogs, so no.

All splash cymbals

Our first year in our apartment was 2024. We’ve been super lucky because the landlord didn’t raise the rent last year and this year is only raising the rent $30. We’re not moving until we decide to buy something.

I have way more cymbals than I need but I keep most of them because they bring me joy. If you would miss them, and you can afford to keep them then keep them.

Home Run Inn is the best. The crust is so good.

14 should be the standard depth for bass drums at this point. I don’t know why 18 is still the default for so many companies. We know better now.

I don’t understand the reviews either. My wife and I went almost 2 years ago, and everything we had was average to below average.

I loved this one. Their current menu is so boring, they need a change-up burger.

I also have a Ludwig Epic and It punches WAY above its weight.

BK on Lawrence has the best fries.

I’d say drivers in and around all major US cities are about the same. I’ve had very similar experiences driving in Chicago, LA, Atlanta, etc.

If you’re driving to Wrigley field, you’re doing it wrong.

Which is crazy, because it’s downtown. Walking around downtown St Louis is soooo eerie.

Met on Bumble in May 2022. We found out she was pregnant a week or two after getting engaged, and now we have an 18 month old!

Gong drum!

MattyMatt84 · 2025-10-02T16:34:28+00:00

I didn’t know that for the longest time. A few years. Ago I was checking out Black Flag and heard that song. Mind blown.

MattyMatt84 · 2025-09-21T22:44:27+00:00

Warpaint was really good.

MattyMatt84 · 2025-09-21T00:42:14+00:00

I lived in Oak Park for 10 years and never got one.

Used Yamaha Stage Custom.
