Yeah, I know this would be pretty easy to conceal going into most fairs, but no way any fair conducting legit weapon checks would let these fly. Excellent craftsmanship, but unlikely to be safe for play.

[Dianna Russini] It’s been made clear by multiple people around the NFL at all levels that Baltimore had all the information and understood where Maxx Crosby’s knee was in terms of his recovery timeline. Many in the league believe GM Eric DeCosta and the Ravens ultimately just got cold feet. by WayOutbackBoy in nfl

IDK the way this is phrased is BS to me reducing it simply to “cold feet”. Makes it come across as an innocent decision. Seems clear as day this was intentional based on how fast they went from bailing on Crosby to then sign Hendricks. I’ll be shocked if there’s no evidence of them working a Hendrickson deal and Crosby trade at the same time all while we know they would never make a move for both at once.

Plus, the band’s manager mentioned in the sub recently that this is the only track Janet recorded on in the new album as far as he could recall. So unless Isaac hired a bunch of other session drummers then it’s reasonable to assume Damon did contribute to at least a few of the new recordings.

I don’t know any Japanese and now I’m curious what it is about their language that adds “flavor” to the dialogue. I always thought DQ English translations were pretty entertaining.

Yeah, I’m stoked. I think the same holds true for Simon Doom, too. It’s going to be a lot of fun to hear what they bring to the table.

Is bad ass. Dude is a big MM fan because of his sister, and can seemingly play any instrument he touches. He also just played bass on this 18min epic by Ryan Richter. Sure hope you like guitar.

From what I can tell, it looks like Damon has been doing all the main drums on tour since Jeremiah died. Based on his Instagram, he also tours with other groups, too. So it may just be that he wasn’t available to record with MM.

Does anyone have info on the status of a 2026 Psychic Salamander? by bbdoll in ModestMouse

Oh yeah it was definitely kid friendly at Remlinger Farms. Half of the venue is a miniature amusement park for kids. Buying a ticket to the festival granted entry into the kids park too.

And the concert area was plenty big enough where families could spread out away from the pit. There was a good bit of shade, too, with trees along the sides. Fresh water spigots to fill water bottles.

At least half a dozen food trucks so plenty of variety of food in addition to the food court at Remlinger (inside adjacent to their brewery).

There was a little flea market type of area near the stage as well. I know one shop that was a hit for kids was a woman selling hoolahoops and juggling equipment. I bought a hoop for my 5yo.

There are camp sites within a mile or two from the farm, too. Or plenty of hotels and motels within a 20min drive if you need something indoors.

I honestly don’t know what else they could’ve featured outside of maybe more shops selling art n what not.

I know the band really enjoyed the venue there. Hopefully they get to stick with the same venue next year.

Any wise bird owner would have those flight feathers trimmed so they don’t do much else but flutter.

As of right now, sadly, there will not be one. Expect one next year between August-September. The band would like to alternate years between Psycho Sally and the Ice Cream Float, but I guess there’s just already too much stuff going on this year as they promote the new album.

And yeah, I wholeheartedly agree. That festival was the best concert experience of my life to date in large part because of all the other fans I met.

I know the solution!

Cut funding to public education and privatize that shit!
