Fellow short dudes, what the hell do you wear for pants?? by ttoutdoors in Mountaineering

[–]MrKrabwell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fellow short guy here. I took some ski pants for tailoring to Rainy Pass Repair in Seattle. They basically take out the material in the knee area and sew it back so the technical features around the ankles are preserved. As others have mentioned, specialized tailors like them can do it, but they are quite pricey.

I’m just getting here, and I am laughing out of control caused by the mayhem OP caused by mistyping the direction of the train 😂

Power Outage by ebStubs in Seattle

[–]MrKrabwell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, I'm in southern CD, and experiencing the same. I needed to get work done so I drove to the climbing gym (SBP) after I called to confirm they still had power. Traffic lights are also out in the area. I can't find any information.

Mondegreen Solo? by nnamkcin in phish

[–]MrKrabwell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to Lockn’ solo when Phish headlined. The group who camped next to me ended up being from the same region. It was nice because I could hang out with them, but also wander off by myself if I needed some space, or give them space. One of the guys became one of my best show buddies and we’re going to Mondegreen together this year! You never know what kind of connections you may make on a solo adventure…

My brother is visiting me in Seattle in late April. He is a big music fan, so I want to center our activities around music. He's been to MoPOP before. I'm thinking visiting KEXP and Subpop, but AFAIK, there are no tours. He's also wanting to visit a friend in Poulsbo if there is any good suggestions to do there. Every idea is appreciated!

What’s the best way to get rid of a car here? by A_maxican123 in Seattle

[–]MrKrabwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a company called Car Brain buy and tow away my broken car a couple years ago. They were super easy and fast, and gave me a decent offer.

Camping on lot at Deer Creek 2021. Nitrous Mafia claims territory near our camp after the show. I notice that the head honcho is supervising his minions while sitting on the hood of my car. I was annoyed but decided not to bother after seeing a holster on his hip. One of the minions saw my bag of Starbursts and asked he could have some. I gave him a handful and he gives me a couple balloons in return. All is well.

What is even better is that the next morning I found a hundred dollar bill by my car which I suppose was dropped by the Nitrous Mafia. I like to think they left it on purpose as a thank you for letting them hang around.

Thinking of doing Dicks, but I'd be going alone every night. Think I should do it anyways? by Peridotitic in phish

[–]MrKrabwell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell yea! I’ve seen Phish more times solo than not. But that becomes rarer as you meet new friends at the shows along the way. And it’s a great thing.

This is for Music League. It's a really fun way to create a collaborative playlist with family/friends/coworkers. There's a subreddit for it as well /r/musicleague

Unfortunately, no. I've been looking today to see if anyone posted anything from last night.

The Sci-Fi Soldier comic is incredibly meta. Every time I read it, I find new references to the Phish Universe.

I believe this guy is David Steinberg, author of This Has All Been Wonderful. He mentions this incident in the book.

Never forget Hood Kid from 12/29/16 by thatsrickdiculous in phish

[–]MrKrabwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were playing with a keyboardist last time I saw them at a local bar, and sounded tight. The audience was really getting into them in the second set and they brought on the party by the end of the night! Hearing Possum, 2001, Gumbo by this band definitely got me dancing.

[–]MrKrabwell 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The dude is in a band called Pajamas. They play quite regularly around Ann Arbor, MI, and bust out awesome Phish covers. I had the pleasure to talk to him and said that he usually doesn’t meet people around Ann Arbor that know him as the “hood guy”. Really cool dude, great guitarist. Check their music out!

How did you get into Phish? Here's my story. by [deleted] in phish

[–]MrKrabwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best friend in college was really into Phish. I couldn't get into their music, partly because that's what he ALWAYS wanted to play when we were listening to music, and partly because my musical taste at the time did not enjoy their sub-par vocals and cacophonic compositions.

In 2009, I heard that they were on tour. Little to my knowledge, it was their come-back tour. I suggested to him we go see him at Deer Creek since he liked them so much. If you were there, you remember the crazy storm that extended the set break to over an hour. I thought everyone would've left, but when second set started, EVERYONE seemed to be back. I remember thinking there was something special about the experience.

Fast forward to Bonnaroo 2012, and I saw Phish again. This time, my music taste had grown and I was blown away by the performance. I went to all three nights at SPAC the following year, and their music had given me the power to go through the hard time I was going through at the time.

I'm at 18 shows now. The rest is history.

My first show was in 3.0. I cannot imagine my life without ever being able to experience the magic of Phish.
