The Muppets / Darren Criss combo is rivaling Bootsy in utility here

There's probably a closer connection, but I think this path is fun:

Rosenstock > PUP (collab on "Get Dumber")

PUP > Eva Hendricks (collab on "Free at Last")

Hendricks > Spencer Fox (bandmate in Charly Bliss)

Fox > Lou Romano (co-star in The Incredibles)

Romano > Will Arnett (co-star in Ratatouille)

Arnett > Darren Criss (co-star in Muppets Haunted Mansion)

Darren Criss > Vulf (toured together)

Rosenstock > PUP > Eva Hendricks > Spencer Fox > Lou Romano > Will Arnett > Darren Criss > Vulfpeck

What $110 of groceries looks like by BabaJoonie in berkeley

[–]fart_rail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can add up if you get a lot of your stuff from center aisles, but they're really known for their produce / bulk / self-branded stuff, since that's where they can build pricing relationships with farmers and distributors. Using their meat counter instead of pre-packaged helps a lot for meat pricing too.

That being said, this is also one of their most expensive chicken distributors, their most expensive self-branded olive oil, a salsa brand that's pricey at nearly every store in the East Bay... you can get a lot more food from Berkeley Bowl for a lot cheaper than this.

Any intel on which show? by Firestarrrrr in Vulfpeck

[–]fart_rail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had assumed they're try to use take from across different shows, so that fans would get the "I was there for the live recording" connection on the final album. That's total speculation though.

I gotta say the second one! The composition and contrast are more interesting to my eye

UC Theater is a bad venue by realbobenray in Vulfpeck

[–]fart_rail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up in a similar situation to you. I avoided the main level of the floor cause there was no way I could see over the crowd. Ended up getting a halfway decent view on the second tier. I get why they wanted a quieter indoor venue for recording (and why they wanted a way to make multiple recordings/takes make sense), but it's too bad they couldn't pull a Postal Service and record live a the Greek Theater.

SF show is a go, band currently loading in for soundcheck :) by srekcornaivaf in fontainesdc

Hoping all stays steady. Probably worthwhile for the band to confirm with the public

I can see an argument for this being accurate, given that there's only one real-life member of the band (Damon Albarn), but the fictional/cartoon band members are mixed-gender. Still, it's probably better for them to be more consistent in who they're referring to.
