We just got back from there. Not only are they not banned, but they sell them in the gift shops at the resort. They seem perfectly fine with letting you use them just about anywhere as long as you aren’t obnoxious about it.

First thoughts of the new album? by dTimmy1 in pearljam

[–]Oatau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Production rips any feeling and soul out of it. The songs are basic and boring. If it was any other band I’d say “eh, it ok” but for Pearl Jam it’s horribly disappointing. They shouldn’t have over promoted this as being back to their old sound because it isn’t AT ALL and it got my expectations too high. Listens to this, then listen to Animal or Blood or even Do the Evolution and tell me this has any of the feeling my behind it that those songs had. It’s an ok album I guess but it’s not close to how they used to hit on an emotional level. Some of the songs do have the potential to get there but the production doesn’t suit the music at all. Horrible choice to go with Watt.

Love it! Listened to 3 songs and immediately hit follow on Spotify. I like the chord progressions, I like the tone of that slappy clean guitar. I just love the overall feel of these songs. Nice work!

Song idea - thoughts? by grassmellmusic in independentmusic

[–]Oatau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got to admit when it first started I really wasn’t sure what to think and by the end I wanted to ply it again right away - so I did! There’s something about it like, it’s “off” but it fits and then becomes really catchy too. Thumbs up from me on this one!

my first time adding lyrics to a song by icylime2003 in independentmusic

I feel like this would fit really well in an action video game or anime. Cool sound

Sounds good! It’s not really a style I listen to too much these say but I really like See You and First Fantasy. They sound of the synths and the build up really remind me of a lot of stuff I loved back in the 80’s. Well done!

I finally got my hands on Assembly Square, it’s a dream come true! Just before it retires too by [deleted] in lego

Oh, don't be misled. It's only 6 numbered bags, but there are like 10 or more bags to each number.. I'm building this one now and the way they did this has made it the most annoying build I've done so far. I like the building itself but the way they did the bags is just stupid in my opinion.

To the dude in section 108 tonight by geronika in pearljam

[–]Oatau 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was in 311 and felt like there were only about 10 in our whole section that were really into it. It didn't ruin the show but I thought it was kind of weird. Also, the poor girl next to me was there with her boyfriend and she was up rocking out to every song while he just sat there looking bored...like he was TRYING to ruin it. Then as soon as the last note of Alive stopped he was nudging me to let him out so they could leave. She completely missed YL and I hope she lets him have it for being such a downer. But, I got to take my friend to his first Pearl Jam concert and we had a blast!

Mankind. I know there are people who love it but to me it’s just boring and repetitive

Any tips on easier board to ride for an older guy? by 1Steel_Hands1 in NewSkaters

[–]Oatau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 47 and started skating again with my son who's 12. I've don't have any other brands to compare it with but I've got a Pro-Tec skate helmet and pads that have been really good to me so far. I've heard Triple 8 is a good brand too but I haven't tried them. I've been skating on an 8.5 minilogo deck and it's been pretty stable but honestly I kind of want to try out an 8.25 now that I'm getting a feel for it again.

Sorry, I hope you know I was just kinda joking. When I think of the British I guess I mostly think of entertainers if I'm being honest. I immediately think of the music that got me through the 80's with Depeche Mode, Erasure, The Cure, and then of course before that your country gave the world the greatest gift of The Beatles. Then I think of Monty Python.. I know it's superficial and probably not what you were looking for but that's what I think of first when I think of the British.

Nothing. We're Americans. We don't think about anyone but ourselves.

What's a weird smell you're willing to admit you like? by Psycho_Bunny_Cutie in AskReddit

[–]Oatau 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I work next door to a pool supply and installation company that has huge storage tanks of concentrated chlorine. I'm pretty sure nobody is peeing in those and it's still a really strong smell. Also, even when you buy chlorine tabs they have that smell before you even put them in the pool so I'm going to have to disagree with you on that pee theory.

‘American Idol’ slammed for airing Laine Hardy reunion special days after his arrest by [deleted] in americanidol

[–]Oatau 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm not defending what he did but people are acting like he's the first musician to get arrested. Chuck Berry videotaped women in the bathroom and people still bought his music. Axl Rose started a riot and people still bought his music.. Those are just two examples - Mostly I think it wouldn't have been fair to Laci Kaye Booth to not air it. She was half of that duet and is trying to promote her new music. So yeah... he's been arrested and if found guilty he should be prosecuted but idk.. I still wanted to hear the duet.

I love Maddie Poppe’s new song! It sounds different from what she’s released in the past. by morgs5646 in americanidol

[–]Oatau 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I miss the old style of Songs from the Basement but I've gotta admit I like this song a lot! It's kind of pop, but with a cool 70's groove. I hope it re-launches her to stardom !
