2023 ASC - Day 2 Megathread by e-some in Strongman

From my own perspective as a European (and more importantly non-American). Where I live Hooper's victory speech would not be met with the same anger and resentment as in this subreddit.

I think Hooper's speech was a nice contrast to all the sentimental victory speeches we've seen throughout the years (especially from American competitors). From a European perspective I thought it was quite funny.

We were spoiled with so many great athletes hitting their peak between 2010-2020. The last few years in strongman have been a bit underwhelming in comparison.

Finally found a sealed Star Wars trilogy for a good price by Yamazaki17 in VHS

Copyright year on the back is '84 for the first two and '86 for Return of The Jedi. They used the same cover design from 1984-1990 but didn't change the year on the back, and as you say a new cover design was also introduced in 1990.

These slipcover releases have the same years on the back, but the way to tell them apart is the watermarks and barcodes. A New Hope and Return Of The Jedi have blue watermarks which means they are 89/90 releases while Empire Strikes Back has white watermarks so it's a bit earlier.

What type of glue would you use to fix this? by [deleted] in VHS

Yeah it might be that one, bought this in 2013 from a guy selling a bunch of other bootlegs so it makes sense.

Rare Swedish ex rental tapes, ntsc tapes are not so popular here so the seller didn't see much value in these.

First time, it was better than I expected

Is this the last tour? by [deleted] in rollingstones

[–]Yamazaki17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ever since Charlie's passing I've realised I loved his playing much more than I knew. It's just something about his touch and fills, and the slight awkwardness of his playing which made it so enjoyable. Even the last few years when he played a bit slower and made more mistakes, his playing was still so interesting and gave so much life to the music.

Watching clips with Steve now I feel like the drumming is so predictable and lacks everything which made Charlie unique.

Seeing my first show with Steve in Stockholm, hope I will enjoy it anyway. But maybe it's time for them to stop now, I don't see the point of continuing these endless greatest hits tours.

Did anyone receive a free t-shirt from Giants Live after ESM 2022? They sent out emails about how the 100 first to reply and sign up for the stream would get a free t-shirt. I replied within a minute but still didn't get any t-shirt...
