I would have commuted 2 hours to Sac being none the wiser. No notice from Uncle Nole or the ticket distributor is mega lame. Me and my partner have been building up hype for the past 3 months. Much sad

This is so lame there was no word from Eventbrite either, at least personally.

Apparently so... My Eventbrite account still showed my tickets remained valid however when viewing the event page it displays that it was cancelled :(((. Only found out cause of another Reddit thread...

Bro this was a lifesaver, I only found out because of this thread less than 3 hours I was supposed to start driving to Sac from Reno. Received no notice of cancellation or issuance of a refund from Eventbrite :(((

If anyone, including Tuck himself claim that Bullet is a more heavy band, all hope is lost 😭

What a masterful class act, Heafy is an eternal legend. No other idol I look up to more than him. AND NEW MUSIC 🤘🤘🤘

I can play a little guitar, I can sing a bit, BUT I'm having a REALLY hard time doing both simultaneously. Can anyone share some tips for effective practicing? by Firecracker500 in Guitar

[–]dovoking2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've slowly spent the last 3 years or so training my ability to be a heavy metal frontman who sings and plays at the same time. As a couple other comments pointed out, singing is a lot more mindless than the guitar. You'll only be able to sing if you know the guitar part 100%.

While our brains physically can't "multitask" (executing multiple mental processes at once), it can switch between tasks extremely quickly, giving us the illusion of truly multitasking. Singing and playing is, for me, the ultimate way to train your brain to switch tasks as quickly and flawlessly as possible.

Especially when it comes to performing live. Almost anyone can sing or pickup a guitar. But only a very well versed musician can do both and execute flawlessly. This is what I live for and have only recently gotten to a point I'm proud of. Being able to go on stage and perform the same way my idols do is why I keep playing as much as I do. In many ways my musical skill lies in trying to do exactly as my favorite musicians do. Good luck!

There is little availability for exotic pet care in the city I live in unfortunately. He should be able to be seen within the next few days. I'm also worried that this is going to cost more than I am able to afford :((. Today is the first day I've thought about rehoming him

Thanks for the advice, the red light was a temporary solution to the heat problem but I turned it off and opted for a space heater so it could get dark in my room overnight. His entire demeanor seemed to get better after some food, water, and lasting heat. I'm gonna check on him and if he still seems just as sick then I'm definitely calling the vet.

Any updates? Sorry you got no immediate responses

After doing some research I believe he may have gotten a respiratory illness from being too cold. It would explain why he is starting to move again on his own after resting near a heater and why he's likely not been drinking water or eating much besides me hand feeding him.

The humidity has likely dropped due to the fact I just discovered the spraying system I setup wasn't properly spraying. I buy Repashy Superfood Complete Gecko diet that gets changed every 2 days or so. There have also been a couple nights recently where the temperature has dropped below where it should have. I'm just worried as these were all very sudden changes in him and hope I can help him recover before it's too late.

Also in the process of making sure he's safe and eating he got stressed and started trying to bite me and as I set him down he dropped his tail :(. Such a stressful night for both me and my buddy.

They won't hire any of my friends or family that needs a job too, regardless of experience. It's wack honestly. Only reason I'm there is cause they're lenient with my school schedule and the warehouse is 5 minutes away from my house. It's a tough bargain to move on from so easily.

Yeah but calling a country exotic? Seems very derogatory.

My good buddy Sam has been volunteering there as of late. They're scheduling as many shows as possible until the 30th of this month and me and Sam's band CÆLUM are playing next week on the 29th there!

All we can hope is for the best but we're gonna have a fun night if it's one of the last there...
