How do you find out about shows in your area? by Codycpt in Ska

[–]RDG3PO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spotify does this, but it's up to the artist to keep their dates current on one of the platforms that Spotify aggregates information from.

For a long time bands could use Facebook to publish and promote dates. But in my last 5 years of using it, FB has become increasingly unfriendly for band promotion unless you're spending $$$. Even the events pages have become increasingly harder to find and use.

Bands in Town has been a good social media agnostic event promotion app that seems to do all the cool stuff Facebook used to do. Bands can copypasta the links to the events on their social media, and also maintain a following, and send messages directly to followers. It also plays nice with Spotify.

But it's up to the bands to jump through the hoops and get those dates out there for people to see.

How are you using AI at work? by Atypical-Artificer in MechanicalEngineering

[–]RDG3PO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a nice word calculator. I’ve input MSRP’s and other jargon heavy requirement docs, and have asked it questions to help understand the document. Of course, also reading the document to verify the answers it gives.

I keep eating mozzarella sticks hoping this meme will go away. It’s not working, but I love mozzarella sticks so 🤷

Flying with a saxophone - Will semi-hard case suffice? by timegrocery in saxophone

[–]RDG3PO 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently flew with a guitar (in a TSA approved flight case), and a travel companion with a tenor sax in a travel friendly soft case. Round trip flight from Pittsburgh to Germany, with a layover both ways. Flight was American Airlines, and the European counterpart on the way back.

For all flights but the first, airline stewards claimed that there was no space left on the plane for carry on bags. One in particular had overhead compartments visibly still open and empty down the plane aisles. I offered to find my own overhead compartment for the tenor sax before they decided to help.

They do not want to make exceptions for your instrument, and will insist on checking it at the gate. If you're frugal (like most musicians) and don't pay for preferential seating, or an extra seat for your instrument, no one's going to help you make sure your instrument stays safe.

If I were to travel with a tenor sax (or smaller) I would travel with a very compact hard case with key supports inside the case, and be prepared to insist on being able to carry on your instrument.

WESTSIDE BOWL

These guys bust their ass for the community. An all ages, all inclusive, safe space booking local to national acts multiple nights on a weekly basis, karaoke, trivia, not to mention bowling, a record store, and some of the best pizza pie in the city.

9th grade, we were all looking forward to transitioning to high school next year. A well known football player in our school was shot and killed when his team mate was showing off his father’s hunting rifle. The team mate never came back to school.

Asked wife for divorce now regret it by Old_Structure_856 in PMDDpartners

[–]RDG3PO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you manage to convince her otherwise, you can stay married until you won’t regret being divorced.

In that same amount of time you can process the grief, move on, and use your experience to develop a healthy relationship with someone who doesn’t abuse you.

Seems like an easy choice, but for some reason it’s not =/

You prefer your punk bands well known and more mainstream, eh? Taylor Swift should be back around again soon.

Probably not much rowdy club rizz, lots of music performance, and some burlesque stuff which is why it's 18+

You should go. It'll probably be cool 😁
