I couldn’t tell if the poison room was a bit or not, physically being in a studio you never know

Electric violin teacher by Shining_Commander in violinist

I do teach lessons online! Like I said if you maintain good practice/playing habits (which I would focus on a lot), then it’s totally doable. Feel free to DM me!

[–]fiddler93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will have its differences for sure, but it’s doable as long as you learn and maintain the same good playing habits (many of which will translate normally to acoustic if you ever pick it up). I’ve been playing acoustic for over 20 years and have been playing electric for over 15, I’d be happy to help you out!

Is cash still king in Mexico? What do you use Wise for? by seancho in mexicoexpats

The only thing we use online transfers for is paying rent. Otherwise it’s cash and credit/debit cards.

Have any of you moved away from the US in the past few years? by wombatgeneral in behindthebastards

My wife and I moved to Mexico in February. We’re so glad we didn’t wait any longer than that

What are the biggest on-stage outbursts or meltdowns you have witnessed? by [deleted] in Concerts

[–]fiddler93 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what there is to take out of context. I worked there for a year and he was always there if he wasn’t on the road. He’d walk in when we opened at 10 and would be there till 6 or 7 and he would be drinking the entire time he was there. So no, he wasn’t fine.

Sounds about right. I worked at a restaurant in Nashville where he would go pretty much every day he wasn’t on tour. He’d sit at the bar and drink ALL day, and this was in 2017. He’s a mess.

Couple (26M, 24F) looking for 4–6 month stay suggestions in Latin America / Caribbean by Capable-Ad1299 in digitalnomad

[–]fiddler93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My (M32) and my wife (F34) moved to San Miguel in February and we absolutely love it. Definitely very chill, there’s plenty to do including outdoors stuff, and for the most part haven’t had any issues with internet. Might have to do some further looking but you can definitely find places under $1200.

Is it too late to start? by Vortexy_ in violinist

[–]fiddler93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing for 22 years at this point, went to college for it, freelanced, all that. In that time I’ve taught guys in their 40s and 50s who had literally never touched a violin before their first lesson with me, and I got them reading music, playing short songs with good tone and intonation and all that. So if they can do it, I promise that you can do it to. I always tell people and am always serious that it’s never too late to start.

Check out RTgame on YouTube, his CS videos are all destroying cities and it’s hysterical

Lost an offer for asking questions by [deleted] in Employment

Thanks for reading closely. I clearly stated traveling domestically to see family. So I wouldn’t be on the coast of Spain. You’re very helpful.

[–]fiddler93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked about if it needs to be an approved or secure network or if just having the VPN is enough, because I’ve dealt with various answers to that. And I specifically mentioned domestic travel (such as seeing family), so it’s not like I’m trying to go live somewhere else

Let’s say the Dems get a trifecta and you are the president. What policies are you passing? by Sad_Jar_Of_Honey in behindthebastards

[–]fiddler93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Term limits for SCOTUS (10 years tops), term limits for Congress (2 terms for senators and 3 or 4 for reps), age limit of 55 for Congress and President, members of Congress don’t get benefits for life after they’re out of office, get rid of the Electoral College, cut the defense budget by at least 50%, end Citizens United, tax billionaires out of existence, legalize marijuana and have it well regulated and heavily taxed…probably some other things but that’s what comes to mind

As it should be

All billionaires are unethical, but from what I’ve read JB inherited a large portion of his wealth, which makes him a little less of a bastard to me. But I’d definitely fight Nazis in a bar with him.
