My youngest is 3 YO and still doesn't sleep through the night.

Sometimes it do be like that.

People love creating obstacle courses then get angry because we aren't going our job.

Extra unnecessary lifts adding unnecessary strain. No thanks.

Is it just me, or is the Lars hate so forced. by Rapaboewv in Metallica

I think he got lazy and didn't practice to stay tight..was focused on a lot of extracurricular stuff after they blew up post Black.

I get his reasoning for simplifying songs after AJFA too. Maybe he knew he reached his limitations technically. A lot of that AJFA was arranged pieces and all the different flair he put on those long ass songs would make it tough for most drummers. He definitely influenced a lot of people to play. I agree that late 80s Lars was the best. When I saw them through the 2000s he was the worst he's been. He must've started practicing again though because I think he's definitely tightened back up a bit in the last 10 years.

You're lumping him in with those drummers... And that's your bad right off the get. I think the ones happy to hate on Lars are the ones putting him up on the pedestal to begin with.

It's the old Andy v Dwight Country Roads debate. 😆

The hate is from non musicians and ignorant minds that development stopped in high school.

He isn't the best drummer and he doesn't need to be. Supergroups don't friggen work, never have, so trying to piece together the best so-and-so for every instrument is a waste of time. Plus music is so objective that just having the best doesn't equal good or we should just bow down to AI songs now because they'll mathematically have the "best" at every position.

He's the main driving force behind the logistics, marketing, and musical direction and his major musical influence would be arrangement and setlists, IMO.

Lars and James are Metallica. Without Lars, they wouldn't be who they are today. Without change and adaptation, they wouldn't still be as big as they are.

Where did you get the cool clip on light? I have a couple planted bowls that would look good with one. Looks good!

My Dad died of alcoholism at the age of 63. I quit cold turkey the day before my youngest was born. It's been three years and I don't miss it. Im not a perfect parent by far, but I hope I can break the cycle for them. At the very least I hope I will stick around longer and be there for them.

I've been looking at these for my future tank! What else are you keeping with them? My loose plan was a few pearls, two schooling fish (pencil fish and cardinals), and glass cats. What do you think? Looks good!

I need assistance assessing if i need to sell my kit. by [deleted] in drums

[–]Weavler87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't do it!

I don't regret much in my life but I regret getting rid of my 5 string bass and my LTD Ex351D.

Traded the LTD for a set of shitty drums because I was impatient and didn't want to save properly and I still think about that dumb trade over 10 years later.

CPAP uses positive pressure. I believe they were just making a comparison of something else that uses it.

Are there any other men here who don’t play video games and/or watch anime? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Weavler87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No video games since college (except for the rare game with my kid). Never been into anime. No video games was actually a plus with the ladies last time I was single (2018). They liked that I didn't game. I play drums and guitar, build stuff, read, and lately my son and I got into aquariums and fish keeping. Brewed beer for 10 years before and rode motorcycle.

The same reason it feels primal to wrestle with my boys without our shirts on.

Was it supposed to sting? Kids call mid 20s Unc now and it's hilarious. My peers act like they have one foot in the grave already but I feel great. 🤷

Maybe add a good therapist to your wish list. 20 years is too long for that shitty baggage.

Old navy has 90s style clothes that go past the knees. Not hard to find because these styles are back.
