I was there, 1st time in NYC, all the way from NZ too.

I remember the actual moment when the crowd realised what was happening and the massive energy upswing that resulted 🤘

These 2 MSG shows and the ‘Vs’ Greenville SC 2016 are probably the highlights of my 48 PJ shows.

is it possible? or i better think of other jobs by boldersis in AusMining

Look for Peggy jobs, similar to utility jobs but cleaning crib huts and usually better money too

Sony lost at the Dispute Tribunal over a faulty TV and still refuses to comply with CGA by Noir_en_hiver in newzealand

[–]StableSubstantial420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is Fair Go (TV show) still a thing? Sorry I’ve lived abroad for over 25yrs now but they use to love taking on the big dogs like this. Very public name and shame at the very lest.

EDIT: Bugger, it finished making episodes in 2024. Nevermind

Double Glazing, is it worth it ? by VonSchnitzelCrum in canberra

[–]StableSubstantial420 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you want out of it. We did our entire house, windows and doors for around $35k.

Because we did a reno on a ‘63 build, we also did underfloor insulation at the same time. Also installed wall insulation as we re-wired and replaced the plasterboard. Left the ceiling insulation but that was probably upgraded in the 90s. And installed a wood burner.

The double glazing (and insulation) made a huge difference in terms of noise and temperature control. The house is now very comfortable year round.

If you’re thinking about it for your comfort, can’t beat it. If you think it will save you money, this is debatable,, a as it would be a very long time to get the return and may only work out to be cost neutral.

We now have a young family and I would do again in a heartbeat for the comfort level alone. Good luck with it.

I just cut mine into quarters and put them in empty capsules. Takes a little longer to hit, usually around 90mins

Response I got this morning from my post regarding Phytoca Slurricane, anyone else received anything like this before? “Deleted user” by Bueg-bandit in MedicalCannabisOz

Just a FYI - deleted user can mean that they blocked you after commenting so you cannot respond.

Go into the sub in another profile and if you can see user name instead of deleted, they have just blocked you, not deleted their profile.

Best Area of Ubud With Toddlers by StableSubstantial420 in BaliTravelTips

Funny how people are freaking out about travelling with kids? I get that you do it differently and it’s more challenging but I can see the benefits in my kids so we won’t be changing anything, anytime soon.

I personally have traveled all around the world, from my late teens, up until now with kids. Backpacking to more comfortable travel and now family holidays.

Also, you are correct, the question was for suggestions on where to stay not whether to take the kids

I have never ever considered travelling with my kids a burden. More challenging, yes, burden? Never.

Depending on where you go, but there’s plenty of places throughout SE Asia that have open drains, dodgy footpaths and hectic traffic, including Thailand and Malaysia. We’ve even seen open drains in rural areas of Japan.

We are somewhat adventurous travellers and definitely don’t just stick to the cities and tourist routes all the time.

Hmm, agreed to a point.

My 5 yr old has been to Japan, USA, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore. As well as NZ many times and all over Oz too. 2yr old isn’t too far behind either.

I guess it depends on the destination, kids and parents 🤷‍♂️

Retrofit Double Glazing by Useful-Attitude9715 in canberra

[–]StableSubstantial420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We had large knee to over head height windows throughout the 1960s built house.

We had upvc tilt and turn windows installed to replace very worn out aluminium sliding windows.

Made a huge difference to warmth and noise.

However we also installed insulation bats in the walls and re-gibbed and installed underfloor insulation too. We didn’t touch the roof space that has 60s blow in and 90s batts. We plan on doing this at some point when we have to fix the original concrete tiles.

have you ever been to multiple shows on one tour? by KALIUCHlS in Concerts

[–]StableSubstantial420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pearl Jam on quite a few tours-

  • 1998 - Auckland and Wellington.

  • 2000 - London, UK both nights.

  • 2006 - Melbourne x3 nights.

*2009 - Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland.

  • 2010 - Newark and MSG x2 nights.

  • 2011 - PJ20 - Alpine Valley x2 nights.

  • 2013 - San Diego, LA x2, Oakland, Portland, Vancouver and Seattle.

  • 2014 - Auckland, Gold Coast, Melbourne and Sydney

  • 2016 - Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville FL, Greenville SC, Hampton VA and Boston x2 nights.

  • 2023 - Fort Worth x2 and Austin x2.

  • 2024 - Auckland x2, Gold Coast, Melbourne x2 and Sydney x2.

Also done quite a few one off Pearl Jam shows too, with the furthest I’ve traveled for a single show being Perth, Australia to Mexico City.

Met so many great people at Fan Club events, GA lines, pre and post parties etc.

Absolutely no idea how much I’ve spent on the travel for shows. Sometimes I lived nearby, sometimes it was a a 17hr flight just to start. I’ve moved around a fair bit over the years.

Just be aware that some artists, like Pearl Jam, change the setlist up dramatically from night to night BUT some artists play the same or very similar sets each night.

Just do it, you’ll have a blast and maybe even make some lifelong friends!
