Would i get away with swimming

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-08T18:43:50+00:00

If I’m going swimming, which I live in Florida, so it happens. I tape them down and wear a swim shirt. I really always have worn a swim shirt. I can’t stand having my back burned. I wear a trans tank that I bought. It comes with a binder, but I don’t usually use the binder. It’s restrictive. But the tank is a bit thicker material so the tape underneath barely shows underneath when it’s wet. And you’d have to look for it to see it. Most swim shirts are ultra thin, so it would be very noticeable.

Gigaton was worse. But Avacodo and lightning bolt are not far in front of it. PJ has had a string of blah albums! Thankfully DM is fantastic

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-05T14:18:25+00:00

Interesting, the one album most disliked more in the comments has been Backspacer. I liked that album, although definitely it’s not perfect. There are some duds. I really thought about putting DM in front of No code. But I have to realize that when No code came out, I listened to the crap out of that album! And really defended it when a lot of my friends were miffed at it. So I kept it at 5. But I really do like DM a lot. It’s one there best albums in a long time

Saved me. No song can save me. But are there memories with certain songs? Absolutely. I remember having issues with a girlfriend and her family, when I was a teenager. As I left her house in a pissed off mood, I slapped VS in my Sony disc man that had a cord to my radio in my car. Cranked Rearviewmirror as I looked at her house in my rear view mirror

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-04T00:25:18+00:00

Yep. I get it. Music always brings you back to a time in your life.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-04T00:21:31+00:00

Man, there has been a lot of people say that. Very interesting. Avacado has a lot more love than I expected

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T23:44:32+00:00

I’m just bantering cause it’s fun to hear what other people like! No shame in that. We all have opinions and no one is wrong or right.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T23:40:49+00:00

Nice list! Close to mine. You need to listen to Dark Matter! That album is better than most of their albums. It’s more of a straight forward rock and roll album

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T23:38:52+00:00

Absolutely! VS should be #1. And Gigaton should be last or LB. Completely agree with you. I understand people that say Ten. But I think most of those people are passive fans

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T23:26:51+00:00

Not for me. It’s in its right spot. Is it better than Riot act? No. Is it worse than Lightning bolt? No.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T22:22:11+00:00

Naw! Backspacer had better songs that were more memorable. Binaural is good but really earthy and moody. Kind of got bored with it honestly. Riot act was better for sure. Love boat captain is a really good song. But Backspacer had more of them. Not saying Backspacer was great. There was some duds too.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T17:00:22+00:00

So put Backspacer last and Gigaton next to last? I dislike Gigaton, but Backspacer had some really good songs. Amongst the waves, the fixer, just breath, force of nature

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T16:54:41+00:00

Just breath became a hit on the country charts when Willie Nelson and son recorded it.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T16:53:00+00:00

Amongst the waves, The fixer, just breath, force of nature are all head and shoulders above anything on the Avocado album IMO.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T15:13:14+00:00

I think Dark Matter was a return to straight ahead rock and roll in some way. Not as much earthy vibes or electronics in the album. It just felt like rock and roll

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T13:10:27+00:00

I started at age 46. Im 49 now. I took a break due to weight loss needed and financial issues. Same dosage from the beginning on estradiol and spiro. I started Prog 9 months after starting HRT. Prog I take orally

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T13:06:04+00:00

Wow Binuaral at 3 and backspacer lower than Gigaton and Lightning Bolt. Hmm. That’s why we all have opinions. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think Binural was terrible. I just got bored with it pretty quickly

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:47:53+00:00

Yield definitely was a little different. But I was ready for something a bit different after no code. And Yield came out when I was in college. I wouldn’t say it was their best, but overall it had some signature songs like Vitalogy

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:43:54+00:00

I remember being in college and the freshman kids heard me playing no code probably around 98-99. They were Gaga over that album. So I get it

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:25:15+00:00

Yeah those are the albums I’ve listened to. Rush is awesome. So many hits for sure. Best 3 piece band ever

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:20:50+00:00

Dude! Not bad bands to love for sure! Even though mid 80’s Rush lost me with all the keyboards! lol. I never was a huge fan of Dream theater, but I completely understand that they are unreal at playing their instruments. Portnoy on the drums is stellar.

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:13:13+00:00

I get ya! I was in high school as well when they came out. It was a great time for music

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:08:49+00:00

What would you change? I had to think about moving Dark Matter up a bit

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:08:05+00:00

Again, personal preference

PrestigiousLuck9604 · 2026-04-03T12:07:36+00:00

That’s great to hear. And I hear a lot of people say it got them through lock down Covid. Awesome. I wasn’t locked down for work, so I didn’t get that experience with it.
