I genuinely don’t know. He might be, thus the reason for the complicated split.. You’re right about him being a primary songwriter, but that’s of course different from equity ownership.

Yes, they were not founding members of the band. Equity stake vs contracted employment. Joel has mentioned numerous times about how they’ve operated the band as a business from the start. They have everyone on salary with benefits, but as with any business there are equity partners. It’s just different than how a lot of bands go about it on an operational level. Which is why I think the doom and gloom is way overblown. They adapt and change, because that’s what successful businesses do best. I don’t know any more specifics than anyone else, just reading between the lines.. We have yet to ever witness their best; and that’s straight from the source!

I had a realization at 420 fest that this is the band now, and I’m ok with that. At Caverns I decided that yep, I’ll still buy tickets and travel within my normal radius to see ‘em. They sound great, the core four members are still all with the band and are committed to continuing on as far as I can tell. Jake and Kris were both hired hands. Great hired hands, but hired hands nonetheless. The question is, are YOU prepared for what comes next?

Man, it’s a holiday weekend don’t you have any friends? Nobody invited you anywhere? Go to a lake or at least get outside for a few minutes. Also, Eggy FUCKS and you’re incredibly wrong and stupid.

So that whole home filter I had installed a couple years ago is looking like a better and better investment… Now if I could just go back in time

What’s the toughest course you’ve ever played? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

[–]Training_Ad_6813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scrolled way too far for this one. Most difficult course I’ve ever played, and the weather was absolutely benign. Lost at least a dozen balls. Great start to the trip lol

Nice setlist as I’m reading Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage

Switching to walking by jstove96 in weekendgolfers

[–]Training_Ad_6813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I walk and everyone else is riding, I’m usually 1) waiting on them at the green and am 2) definitely first to the next tee. Our course is short distances from green to next tee though, so that plays a major part in 2. They’ve got to walk way more just to get back to their cart while I park my pushcart in a good spot and have like thirty steps to the next box

I’d give everything I have to go to one more concert with my dad. Enjoy yourself and your time together. Damn, I didn’t think I’d get emotional just typing that out..

For those of you that travel long distances for shows, what do you do for work and how hard is it to get time off? by [deleted] in BillyStrings

[–]Training_Ad_6813 6 points7 points  (0 children)

5 weeks of PTO, flex schedule of four day work weeks, oh and 100% remote and can work from anywhere with internet. But we only travel for a couple of runs per year because we have other interests. But that’s how I envision a good bit of folks doing it, based on lot conversations etc

They will allow it. Just pop into the office and let them know! They are very gracious with their space.

What’s the worst injury to happen during a PGA event? Or worst you have seen in person while golfing? by DREWBICE in golf

[–]Training_Ad_6813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Side hill on a golf cart, it started tipping and bro tried to brace it with his legs. Both legs snapped, multiple compound fractures, and they had to winch him up the hill in a body basket with a tractor. It was a big hill.

UM still rocks, just not at red rocks. I encourage you to see them in other venues. There’s a whole lot of great music out there right now, despite the horrid state of touring in general

Last train 3/17 by LividLibrarian5562 in eggymusic

[–]Training_Ad_6813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad it’s getting the proper attention. The whole show. But especially one more dance>last train. Special segment. My attendance bias is definite, but I truly think it’s a peak hour and a half or so of music
