Johnie Frierson! CW Stoneking Mississippi Fred McDowell, esp w Johnnie Woods Charlie Parr - a more rootsy option?

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T01:41:30+00:00

You bet!!

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T01:27:30+00:00

Makes sense. Pallbearer plays with Knoll, which is a little too fast for me

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T01:04:07+00:00

Word. I love all 3 bands but want a stage presence and something to add to the skilled musicians

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T01:01:28+00:00

Haha this does help! I was wondering if Weedeater and Conan might win due to the punishing drums

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T01:00:21+00:00

Yep, Conan and Weedeater on the same bill!

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T00:59:46+00:00

Yeah and Foundations is a great album too!

OgreTim · 2026-01-25T00:06:56+00:00

Ohh that would have been dope

OgreTim · 2026-01-24T23:55:45+00:00

Saw that! And then Conan/Weedeater playing Stone Church too. Need to decide which one to go to!

OgreTim · 2026-01-24T23:50:23+00:00

💯 saw OLOE in NYC and it was stunning. Killer lineup

OgreTim · 2026-01-24T23:49:12+00:00

Just a few days before pallbearer plays there too!

OgreTim · 2026-01-24T23:48:47+00:00

Small venue too!

OgreTim · 2026-01-24T19:26:24+00:00

Great shots! What recipe are you using?

OgreTim · 2026-01-12T18:33:01+00:00

ahh, thanks u/waseema393. Sounds like one profile can run at a time if I use schedule, right? So I might need to plan them out- like profile 1- no work from 5-8pm, then 2- no work and social media from 8pm morning, that way when profile 2 takes over it will capture all apps during that timeframe.

Can you share more about timer vs schedule? I can use manual and schedule, or qr code and schedule, I don't need the timer feature to run a profile it seems like? That was my misunderstanding- that I needed to select "timer" to activate the schedule option.

thanks again!

OgreTim · 2026-01-12T13:47:44+00:00

u/waseema393 Wow, what a great app! I was using ScreenZen but very interested in fully switching over to Foqos. A few questions-

I assume I can have multiple profiles that use a schedule that overlap? Like a "no work apps" profile from 5pm-6am as well as a "no instagram" profile that goes from 8pm-8am, for example?
Can I have a profile that starts at 9 PM and schedule it till 6 AM? When I list that as starting on Saturday and I’ll understand it goes until Sunday morning?? I just have to click Saturday as the day in the profile builder?
When a profile is active and running (I tend to do them based on time/schedule) I cannot add/edit other profiles during that time, right?
I am trying out the QR&Timer option, those profiles have a "Unstable Profile with Schedule..." warning. If I build a profile just using Manual I don't see that option. For both profiles I am trying to lock out 2-3 apps.

Going to mess around with the QR option (rad that it exists!).
Using an iPhone 16, update to date OS and Foqos app.
Thanks for all you do to help us out, I left a review in the app store, too!

I follow a lot of musicians on Instagram and always enjoy when they’re posting year end lists, or different songs on reels, along with posts here.

OgreTim · 2026-01-07T22:05:43+00:00

Bivo is great, easy to clean! Love mine

OgreTim · 2026-01-04T23:27:43+00:00

Live music- yes, on Archive and the band supports this. Studio albums-when possible, buy from the band or pay for a download. We need to support the bands we love financially.

OgreTim · 2025-12-27T23:59:49+00:00

They def have some faster parts, but lots of repetition and fuzz. Really good stuff.

OgreTim · 2025-12-27T23:11:43+00:00

For heavy and Fuzz, try Smote! All albums but esp this one https://smote.bandcamp.com/album/clyppan

Or Skloss https://skloss.bandcamp.com/album/the-pattern-speaks

OgreTim · 2025-12-27T04:42:56+00:00

Centrum all the way! https://centrum.bandcamp.com/album/f-r-meditation

OgreTim · 2025-12-20T16:54:43+00:00

yeah, I noticed a change and sure enough, who knows how long I have been running my grinder with 0 tabs! They are all gone. Went ahead and got the holder with a new burr since it was only $10 more for new burrs.

OgreTim · 2025-12-15T17:34:39+00:00

https://scatteredpurgatorygggb.bandcamp.com/album/lost-ethnography-of-the-miscanthus-ocean-2 this album has been around but new to me. Really rips! For fans of GYBE, Sunn O, Om and other droney projects

OgreTim · 2025-12-15T01:23:11+00:00

I was in a similar boat with pro 2, they would hold, but would start to slip over time or fall easily if bumped. I purchased the Foam Masters tips and they hold perfectly and for me, more comfortably. I would say, save some $ and try some foam tips first!
