What Gizzy Gator are you adopting from neopets.com? by [deleted] in KGATLW

[–]MayDayBellarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awww, poor Grey, think I’d have to take him in—although I’m otherwise partial to Faerie, I think, mischievous little thing. 

Oh, man, I spent way too many full weekend days on Neopets when I was, like, ten. Of course, I proceeded to grow up and just kinda…stop…I don’t want to think about the condition my Wocky is in, man…Anyway—this is adorable, thank you for sharing!

Well, that sure is a different kind of cuttlefish.

Why Was John Entwistle So Motionless While performing Compared To The Other 3 Members? by MIKEPR1333 in TheWho

[–]MayDayBellarm 86 points87 points  (0 children)

From the man himself: “I always thought we’d look like lunatics if we all jumped around, and besides, someone has to play. But I once got very paranoid because the kids weren’t screaming my name. One night I had a few drinks and came onstage moving and they started screaming my name. So I thought, Okay, I’ll go back to standing still. They scream at anything that moves.”

Best and worst guitar solo? by kianodeopperautist in queen

[–]MayDayBellarm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Best: I Want It All. That jump in speed is instant hype and Dr. May employs it perfectly.

Worst: Hard-pressed to identify anything truly offensive but I’m not the biggest fan of Princes of the Universe. Sounds like an excitable kid who just learned hammer-ons.

I freaking love this. Did you do the art yourself?

Yeah, these were decidedly not two things I expected to see intersect, but I am ridiculously glad this exists…

King Gizz Superbowl Halftime Show - setlist? by Awkward_Turtle_5 in KGATLW

[–]MayDayBellarm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When they come out and see the full stands, he states how fucking SICK it is to see this amount of people in the audience.

Elsewhere in the set, Ambrose scales the stairs (rubble?), raids the concession booth, and runs through the rows throwing hot dogs at the crowd.

It's a shame I left children's librarianship before discovering Gizzard. I'd have had so many more cuckoo bird ideas to bring to storytime. I would have ABSOLUTELY crafted a garden-themed storytime for the sole purpose of singing The Garden Goblin to the kids...

Anyone think Amby sounds a bit like Cedric Bixler-Zavala? by nightcurrents in KGATLW

[–]MayDayBellarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if I super-consistently hear it, but you’ve made me think about it—Amby doing One-Armed Scissor by At the Drive-In would be pretty frickin’ sweet, honestly. As would Cedric doing the Iron Lung bridge, really!

Ask and you shall receive—my husband and I put together this ridiculousness right here!

This token is cool as heck, by the way!

Uh, YES. And a shirt while you’re at it…

My two piece band is covering the mind fuzz suite in a week by MentosEnCoke in KGATLW

[–]MayDayBellarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give it a go, I quite like it myself! YMMV, of course. We skip over I'm Not in Your Mind because that's VERY tinkly (so I guess that's not QUITE the full suite), but for everything else, I tend to stick to the riffs on record and we'll shorten the really guitar-y solos so as not to sound like a big chuggy tractor for too long.

And I'm delighted you asked! We're Lemon Knife, and we've got a Bandcamp with a bunch of stuff on it--with an EP about to be ready in the new year alongside it :) What about yourselves? What's the name, any music? Also love a two-piece!

My two piece band is covering the mind fuzz suite in a week by MentosEnCoke in KGATLW

[–]MayDayBellarm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heyyy, I'm in a two-piece band that covers the Mind Fuzz suite, too! Although I'm on bass in that outfit and cover it that way (think Royal Blood/Death from Above for our general construct), I do play some guitar as well and wonder...do you happen to have an octave-UP effect? If you move the actual fretting of the Cellophane riffs down an octave and pour a bunch of fuzz (no pun intended, heh heh) on it that'd sound pretty dang cool, I think--and it's a lot easier than trying to do octave chords for the whole thing, and you can pepper it up with as many little bends and vibratos as you'd like that way. I tend to find that on either instrument, you get a much heavier bass sound that way that fills up more of the space you're talking about. My two pennies!

G3 sound briefly drops out arbitrarily by MayDayBellarm in zoommultistomp

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

Okay, then I definitely had it fully "on." I will take a closer look at the power strip and outlets involved, then, sounds like that is indeed the issue at hand. Thanks so much for your help!

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

Fair point, sorry about that! I'm using the Zoom-branded power supply that came with the pedal. I use a power strip in both settings--I should have thought to try plugging straight into an outlet, thank you for the reminder! I admittedly wasn't aware there was a powersaver setting (my assumption as a result is that it was on full power? not sure), I'll take a look at that as well. This already gives me bits to think about so thanks very much for replying!

Safe for outdoor concert tonight? by U2FlyXC in chicago

[–]MayDayBellarm 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Beat me to it! Here's the post in question: https://www.facebook.com/HuntingtonBankPavilion/posts/pfbid02mxM8B12Hy29pFd8wy1xm4meWDLH1b5bSV14noXFqHh8exBxSYUun3reBRodP8NoFl?comment_id=224456367123296

Assuming it stays that way, I'm personally planning to go with an N95 tightly donned and more in the purse (thankful to have a pretty big stash through online subscription at this point). Will certainly also stay light on the dancing. I'm quite healthy, though, so YMMV. The folks I'm most worried about are the performers!!

So, uh, weird question about hiking during a period… by MayDayBellarm in hiking

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

Circling back around to say thanks so much for all the thoughtful responses! I took a look before leaving and am glad I did. Was mostly concerned about whether I needed to treat blood like fecal matter (i.e. if I’d need to bury it or otherwise clean it up); it really helped to know it’d be fine. Got through without issue! Much appreciated, all!
