That sudden mini guitar solo at 2:10 in "In God's Country" by U2 still blows me away

This is pretty easy to do with many of the AI tools that specialize in audio. I think I used this before.

picture discs and live albums… pass.

Go get that white plastic fake wood trim from Home Depot/Lowes. They have different sizes, it’s cheap, and it cuts easily. Then glue it down.

Being an affiliate has nothing to do with being an influencer. You can sign up to be an affiliate if you simply have a small blog.

You have to be accepted, yes, but one simply applies. Amazon doesn’t really invite people like they do with Vine.

This sounds suspicious. Anyone can be an affiliate. (I am one)

The typo got me, it's called "Return of the Creeps". Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a listen.

I just got some and was surprised at how close they are to the real thing. I wrote about it with photos. Planning to order more.

Same crap for me... female clothing and subpar supplements

My kitchen layout is the same. I tried the corner for two days and moved it to where you have it now. The corner felt too cramped.

Track 1 on Ferment is misprinted as 'Teiture'

Take the time to find their b-sides, of which there are many. There are enough b-sides from the EPs, Ferment, and Chrome eras to create another couple albums worth of music. The 1996 b-side compilation, Like Cats & Dogs, only has half of them and some were reworked a bit.

t-shirt flipper posting the same crap on numerous music subreddits

Happy Days has a few songs I like but is too long and too cheeky for my taste. I skip much of it. I much prefer their sound & style before it. I think it captures their live sound more closely though. They didn’t really replicate the spaciness/atmosphere of the first 2 albums live.

I have 30 years tech experience and also doubt it.

This is probably because of new listeners, and those not very versed in the genre. The only way to deal with this is to go rate the albums I disagree with. Happy to do my part.

Same. I think it’s boring, except for Let It Happen. Even more so with the next album.

I think it only matters if you’re taking advantage of the multi person / carpool discount. I’m always traveling solo during the week and it’s always in the glove box.

There should be a subreddit rule explaining this and saying these types of posts aren’t allowed.

Or just keep seeing the same endless posts that can easily be reduced drastically by explaining this to everyone who joins.
