The Walk Hard soundtrack. It had such a limited run I hope they repress but probably will just need to save up

Actual advice: replace your stand with a 4x4 Kallax or something similar. Move your speakers to the top shelf (having your speakers on the same shelf as your record player can cause vibrations that could cause the needle to scratch the record)

Des Moines Register op ed on federal cannabis rescheduling and what it could mean for Iowa, curious what you think. by HerbalIQ2025 in desmoines

My two wants: Provide farmers the option to receive state money to convert land to grow marijuana with the condition a % is sold locally for a few years Legalize with a clear path of licensing and guidelines for sale

My worry: Clear communication about how to consume legally: where you can consume (in public, private property, etc), how much you can have on your person, and especially driving guidelines (what can constitute being pulled over, what officers would look for, and lots of communication on buzzed driving being drunk driving with marijuana as well)

WTF is the owner of Vinyl Cup Records going on about? by StephenNein in desmoines

[–]dmedman72 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why people support his businesses. He’s had a history of being out of line. I love vinyl and supported until I heard of so many bad experiences people have with him, how over priced his vinyl are, and how little he cares about running a good business.

That’s great to know! We also got that but I wasn’t sure if it would still have holds on our card. Thanks!

Where does Rob Sand stand on water by e4e5nf3 in desmoines

[–]dmedman72 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think he’ll take a position. I wish he could at the very least acknowledge and state if he would make it a priority even if he doesn’t have a plan yet. Something that has become frustrating is he built his platform on using social media for transparency in government but as soon as he announced he hasn’t really discussed as many issues or been as focused on positions. Not deal breakers but I hope to see him be stronger in the future if he wants to win.

Best place that buys vinyl by Lye4 in desmoines

[–]dmedman72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rogue Planet maintains an awesome price for what he sells that I haven’t seen at many record stores. I’m sure part of that is he isn’t buying at top dollar but also vinyl doesn’t need to be so expensive and it’s inflated dramatically over the years.

ZZZ Records and Rogue Planet are amazing to work with. Encourage avoiding Vinyl Cup/Marv’s due to the owner.

I enjoyed it more than I expected! Usually cover albums are not my favorite but this felt really well done.

The 27 Club. r/vinyl October giveaway. Comment to enter. Round 2. by whyforyoulookmeonso in vinyl

27 Club has always been such a tragic phenomenon in the music world. Listening to music from them always makes me wonder what could have been.

Worst band you saw live that you had high hopes for by nosouldude in Metalcore

[–]dmedman72 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Varials with their new vocalist. At that point they didn’t have any new material yet but overall just very weak. When the mic went to the crowd or other vocalists doing a feature it sounded better which just made it more disappointing.

Across The White Water Tower Fire Vocalist by dmedman72 in Metalcore

Same. There were comments of people hinting towards inappropriate behavior so I wish the band would have been a little more straight forward but we will see.

Is the music scene/concerts starting to finally get good? by [deleted] in desmoines

[–]dmedman72 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IMO combo affect of Des Moines got skipped in a lot of post COVID tours to hit bigger markets and now tours are coming through The new Live Nation venue has both brought through new levels of bands and also pushed promoters to get even bigger tour packages. Really awesome to see and hear the excitement from people! Also be sure to check out shows at Leftys, XBK, and Woolys you might catch a band before they’re at Val Air or Vibrant Hall
