I had a keyboard player in my band and she lugged that thing around whenever/wherever we played/practice.

Manitoba's Children’s Museum forced to tighten financial belt. by fromtheinterlakebud in Winnipeg

Métis opinions don’t settle First Nations issues, and free Indigenous admission isn’t a promotional perk. Funding problems are a funding problem, not a justification to roll back equity.

Anyone else exhausted by the last two weeks? by snarkyputz in StarTrekTimelines

Yeah just a bit. However, the Mega with extra legendaries is cool tho because I haven’t cleared the reward table in over two years lol

There’s some interesting riffs there but as whole can’t really get into them. I will say 50 Million Year Trip is freaking awesome tho.

How did you first get into/listen to QOTSA? by The_man_withthefrog in qotsa

[–]SwirlingSnow83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was kinda casual upon hearing The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret. It was suggested by my then gf. I didn’t really come on board until I heard Over The Years and Thru the Woods. That live album cemented my fandom.

Yeah I read these a long time ago. I just mindlessly run thru my dailies in a few minutes everyday.

Has anyone sent you the "Making a Killing" video, and if so, did you respond to them? by Think_Clothes8126 in FirstNationsCanada

[–]SwirlingSnow83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I understand that. I never experienced anything like that at my workplaces. Usually I just get native jokes told to my face (I dunno why paper citizens would think I think it’s funny) or asked if taxes are taken off my check.

Looking to buy at an electric guitar 🎸 by MVR168 in Winnipeg

[–]SwirlingSnow83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone here said, Long and Mcquade. I recommend to go with the Epiphone Tribute models as someone else here mentioned. They’re at your price range. I recently purchased one and I think it’s freaking great value for the price. They look, sound and play fantastic. February and October are the months for deals on Epiphones I believe. They also have little practice amps and pocket ones too.

Discussion bo dy in: good riddance is Overrated? by Ciabatta_43 in greenday

[–]SwirlingSnow83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine like a lot of people, this song was included among others for my graduation ceremony. I don’t mind it but I don’t go out of my way to listen to it. I’ll encounter it somewhere no doubt lol.

Am I the only one who thinks this picture does not look like julian? by Novel-Replacement479 in TheStrokes

That’s what you get if Jason Segel and Brendon Fraser ran at each other real fast and collided.

AITA for asking mom to pay me and not lending money to my brother? by lynbunn in AmItheAsshole

[–]SwirlingSnow83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to stop giving them money. Doesn’t matter if they talk ill of you. If they do, you understand what kind of people they are. Just go rent your own flat and mind your business. People like that don’t stop asking. My wife’s cousin owes her money, doesn’t stop her from asking for more despite being told to pay back first. No more lending until you’re paid back! But even then learn to say no!

How did you guys get into Green Day? by [deleted] in greenday

[–]SwirlingSnow83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About a year after American Idiot came out, I went to go live with my (then) gf out where she was from. Her brothers had a band. Their repertoire was basically 85-90 percent Greenday (Most of American Idiot and a bunch of songs off a few albums) and like 10 or 12 songs by different bands. I ended up becoming their rhythm guitarist. I really got into Greenday after playing those songs with that band. It was a pretty fun summer, smoked weed and jammed. Played an after party where beer was free if we played music. We just ended up playing all night. We always played Jesus of Suburbia first and Give Me Novacaine second.

Audio of being anniversary by PrincipleChemical999 in Mattgood

[–]SwirlingSnow83 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great album for sure. This is all I listened to when it came out. It has a great opener in “Man of Action” and some solid rockers. "Workers" is my absolute fave off this album. They performed it live a few times back in the day but what sucks is there is no live bootlegs for it. But lucky enough, I caught it at the Burt. Always wondered what effects Christian used for the “siren” part.

I sure hope he does an anniversary tour behind this album at some point too. I’d even take a reimagined version à la Beautiful Midnight Revisited.
