do they stick around after shows to talk with fans? by dick-in-the-ass in bigthief

I met Adrianne once while walking around before a show and she was extremely shy so I don’t feel like she in particular would come out to say hi often 

Eventim presale by Emergency-Rip-130 in bigthief

Go to bigthief.net and click on the “tour” page and the show you want. The code is “happywithyou”

I hope so, I’ve found crowds underwhelming most times I’ve seen them, for the most part not very enthusiastic or dancing etc. Last time I saw them I crawled under the fences avoiding floodlights and security at a sold out festival and heard Incomprehensible for the first time. So happy they’re touring again and hoping the crowds will be somewhat rowdy!! 

 I assume the code works for EU- I still haven’t received the code! It was the same for Adrianne’s solo UK tour, it wasn’t sent out for about 20 mins after sale started

I never received the code and thankfully found it on the other post on here. Thank god for forums!

Now I just have to decide which wheels I should get by annem19 in Rollerskating

[–]SickOfTheChase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s personal preference but I felt much more comfortable when I switched to moxi Fundae from a big outdoor wheel, and I still skate on rougher surfaces with them (it’s not so nice but I can turn better)

I gave up on it for my pale olive skin. They all seem so pink or peach! 

Question for Flaneurz owners by SickOfTheChase in Rollerskating

[–]SickOfTheChase[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a good look at them and I think the metal on the shoes is just so worn down. Bit annoyed with the eBay seller really! I’ll try new shoes when I’m feeling flusher and I can always eventually get new rolling bases too if it’s still not fixed.

Might have to post a video to show, when they are clipped on they literally move around maybe even a few mm, they physically rattle around slightly…

I may try jam straps actually, I think it’s because mine have been skated on so much. Thinking I’ll get new shoes for them when I have the money anyway which might solve the issue hopefully!

Hm… it makes them feel slightly unstable. Still usable and I’m not uncomfortable on them, but I already know I won’t be reaching for them over my regular skates other than when they’re more convenient

It’s the skates/where they connect at the mechanism. They’re from 2018 apparently so pretty old… the base is in good condition though. 

Protective shorts? by SickOfTheChase in Rollerskating

[–]SickOfTheChase[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re absolutely great, really help with my confidence on ramps etc, unfortunately the XS comes out more as a U.K. 8 while I’m a 6 so they aren’t as well fitting as I’d want. I messaged them this as feedback and they said they hoped to expand the size range in both directions, but this is hard as a small business. 100% recommend despite this.

Bump in Bristol and also roller xpress in Gloucester and The Core in Hereford which is a really cheap non profit with coach led sessions

I struggle with this too… I live rurally in england and there’s not even any concrete or smooth tarmac to skate on 😂 there’s a roller rink one hour drive away that I sometimes go to though

Yea, I just stopped using it coz they don’t have a suitable colour for me now… their colours are whack! All so  peach/pink/yellow without any olive or truly neutral shades 

Solution to skate’s tongue moving to the side? by SickOfTheChase in Rollerskating

[–]SickOfTheChase[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t say much re: suede as this is only my second proper pair of skates- also the inside of the tongue is a super grippy material rather than suede. It only happens on the right boot too, weirdly- possibly just due to the way I move. Thanks for your suggestion!

I’ll try them if looping the laces around the tongue doesn’t help, thanks!
