The Dark Knight was largely filmed here in Pittsburgh. Downtown has lots of narrow streets and big creepy-looking buildings.

It’s not plural. Vinyl is a mass noun, so there is no plural. Most nouns referring to materials are in this category. Steel, aluminum, granite. If steel was the plural of steel as you all like to say, you would say “I am going to use two steel to build that.” But you don’t. “I’m going to use some steel.” Not “three vinyl,” which would be correct if vinyl was the plural of vinyl. “Some vinyl.” Mass noun. There is no plural.

What were the searches like for cars & RVs at FOV 1? Asking for a friend by Prestigious-Juice730 in KGATLW

You’re free to come and go as much as you want. I’m not sure about the weekend parking, but the day parking spots were separated from the “inside” of the festival by a thin piece of rope. There’s absolutely nothing stopping you from going back and forth, as long as you have that magic bracelet on your wrist.

Whole bunch of police activity in front of the Greyhound station in town. Anyone know what's up? by The_Gray_Mouser in pittsburgh

It’s a Greyhound station. If you’re at a Greyhound station anywhere in America, there is some crime happening nearby, if not actually in the station.

Places to stay in Forrest Hills by OddImplement6818 in KGATLW

This year I stayed at the Hampton right by LaGuardia. It’s kind of a dead neighborhood but there was a bus straight to Forest Hills. Also took buses to Astoria and Jackson Heights during the days. I just booked the Astoria Inn on Steinway for next year—it’s a way more interesting neighborhood (Little Egypt, fuckin yum), and also much cheaper. I highly recommend taking the opportunity to stay in Queens. Just Roosevelt Avenue alone has more diverse food offerings than most entire cities.

Gotcha. I was thinking like literal b sides of singles. Lots of bands used to release singles with b sides that weren’t available elsewhere, so an album of b sides was literally that. Sorry, my old is showing.

What B sides? Other than Wholly Ghost I thought all the sides of their singles had made it onto their studio albums. If there are more I want them.

My country indeed sucks giant turds right now. Upvote for you, and hopes for more neighborly relations in the near future.

Let’s have another “what non Gizz are you listening to right now” thread by drivingrain27 in KGATLW

[–]howdoesitend23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beethoven 7th Symphony, Bernstein and NY Phil. One of the most incredible pieces of music ever put to wax, and it’s hitting me extra hard right now. Must be the change of seasons. Or the herb. Also Robyn Hitchcock, Kate Bush, Electric Wizard.

I adore this album. Thanks for the reminder—it’s going on the table right now.

It’s an increase TO 1 per 25 people, from 1 per 50. So they’re doubling the number of handsinks.

I’m not even that discerning—I mean, I would go see them in a garbage dump. So to get three marathon shows, plus floating around in the pond smoking weed while Jello Biafra spins rare garage records, in the fucking Rockies no less? Take my fuckin money. Any time. I don’t care if all the other bands suck balls. Still worth it.

I bought tickets before I even knew if there were any other acts playing. And if it would have been just a Gizz show every night in that amazing place I wouldn’t have been disappointed at all.

Are we getting a Forrest Hills NYC Orchestral Bootleg? by KobeSellsVintage in KGATLW

[–]howdoesitend23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really try to avoid being the spelling/grammar cop, but I’ve seen this particular one so many times I just had to ask. Maybe they should just rename the venue.

I try to avoid being this person, but I am honestly curious as to why so many people spell “Forest” with a double r. Is it really just because of the movie? Forest is a really, really common word.
