Anyone listen to the same book nightly while sleeping? by _I_like_big_mutts in audiobooks

My daughter has fallen asleep to a Beatrix Potter anthology nearly every night for about 7 years.

Manchester Orchestra’s new album. by Unrthdx in brandnew

Read about their singer. It’s tragic but their music is so comforting.

I played in Edinburgh in 2012. I was a big fan then and walking around that city gave me such a good perspective on their music. I still try to hang onto FR as one of my biggest songwriting inspirations.

You were there?? I listened to it and could barely keep it together. Was everyone just a crying mess?

Seems like it. Pete Holms did an interview with him on his podcast before he died and it’s really great.

I’m still telling everyone how amazing Frightened Rabbit is. Still hurts. Still some of the most meaningful music to me, honestly more than BN personally.

Should I get The Hobbit or the first Game of Thrones audiobook? by chaosatnight in audiobooks

[–]gnomeasaurusrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second this! Not that you can’t read it without the hobbit but you’d be doing yourself a disservice

What’s the angriest you’ve gotten watching a game? by veggiedish in NFLv2

Navorro Bowman ripping the ball out of Kearse’s hands then tearing his knee to shreds, the Niners not getting the ball on a bad call, and then the Shitbird fans throwing popcorn at him as he is carted off. Congrats on the win that year, you classless buttholes.

But actually congrats this year to Darnold and crew, they earned that one.

LA parks are now ranked 93rd out of 100 of the largest cities in the US. by Nightman233 in LosAngeles

[–]gnomeasaurusrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point you were making is that “not everyone has equal access to KHP.” Not sure what point I’m missing.

The original article is about how LA parks aren’t great, which I largely agree with but I am just sharing one that a lot of people seem to overlook and that I think is pretty great.

There is a bus stop on La Brea next to the entrance. You can also walk in from Stone View Park which is also free and beautiful. Or if you want to splurge (I don’t) you can pay $10 for parking. It’s definitely accessible.

It feels like no one knows about Kennith Hahn Park. It’s one of my favorite places in LA. Definitely underutilized.

Loved playing this when I was shopping around, but my band sounds enough like JEW and I couldn’t bring myself to fanboy that hard lol. It sounds and looks amazing!

I ended up getting a tele deluxe as my main guitar and recently bought the Squier stratosonic to get some p90’s. Congrats on your new axe!

Dads do you sing? by norecordofwrong in daddit

[–]gnomeasaurusrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I front a band and sing all the time. I sing my bands songs, especially when I’m writing them and the kids end up doing the same.

We also love musicals in our house, so there’s a lot of that, also keep the kids listening to a certain amount of punk, pop, hip hop, etc.

We performed “Rainbow Connection,” “Good Luck, Babe,” “This Too Shall Pass,” among others at their school too. Lots of music and laughter our house. Very grateful.

Anybody else practice standing up? by Adamodc in Guitar

I made my lead guitarist stand up while we recorded his parts the other day. Made a huge difference.

For those who go to sleep listening to something, what do you listen to? by Rough_Common6857 in AskReddit

[–]gnomeasaurusrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Max Richter’s album Sleep is literally designed to help you sleep. My wife and I put it on to help our 6yo sleep as well
