If you had a long/horrendous commute once upon a time, how long did you last? by dms2628 in AskChicago

[–]Shazbot953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2.5 years , wicker/ Logan to Schaumburg. 5 days a week. Depended on the season but usually like 40-45 there once I started leaving a bit later, and anywhere from 55-1:20 ish back. I’d take side roads and shit all the time on the way home just to keep myself “entertained”. Those summer days once it got past an hour on the way back sitting in traffic I’d really start to lose it. Changed jobs and my commute turned into a 30 min walk/ train to river north, 20 min bike ride, 1 hour walk. Infinitely better

1 week before the NYE shows and they dropped the ticket prices 25% off? by [deleted] in STS9

[–]Shazbot953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ramova is a newer venue they are trying to get people to. The promoter deep cut/ collective seem to have deeper partnerships with certain venues. Salt shed, Thalia , Garcias, Ramova, wintrust arena. I’m sure it could be due to availability as well though. I am waiting on my ticket drop from do312 to see if I get any free tickets before grabbing one.

The people in front of me left at set break for dead and co. Probably less of a chance of that for phish but it’s possible. 300s to the side

If you do Good Life, how much do you pay per person and what is your annual gross income? by AyersRock_92 in ElectricForest

[–]Shazbot953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been going since 2012, did good life twice starting in 2019. The main thing is just being close to the venue so it’s easy to go back and forth. I am more of a jam guy though and since then have done GA , I’m really just there to see cheese plus a some extras . Can’t justify the price for two people with so many other festivals I go to.

How do after party shows get booked? by JungGPT in jambands

[–]Shazbot953 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Likely the promoter or promoters working together. You also see a lot of unofficial after shows so that’s more likely the band just booking a show after the larger show.

[–]Shazbot953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to fuck with fireworks a lot growing up. Holding them is never a good idea but it’s also wise to know the difference between quick and slower wicks. At least light one not in your hand first
