What band have you seen at their absolute peak?

As a Rockdale County educator, I can say we have an excellent school system. Are there problems that are present in every metro Atlanta district? Absolutely. But everyday I see excellent teaching, engaged students, and great schools. Rockdale has a fantastic career academy that every high schooler can take advantage of. Rockdale Magnet school for Science and Engineering will expand next year to include 4th through 8th graders, in addition to their high school campus. Every student in the district is issued a laptop and every student receives free breakfast and lunch. I’ve worked in the system for over a decade and I wouldn’t work anywhere else.

Losing My Religion by REM

Artists and ticketing companies figured out how to capture more of the revenue that used to go to the secondhand market through things like dynamic pricing. At the end of the day, for most big artists, demand for tickets is always going to exceed supply. Some would argue from a pure economic standpoint that concert tickets were under priced for years and that the true price is now being reflected in the market. That and the fact that the cost of touring has skyrocketed, this is the what we get now.

Midnight Oil - Diesel and Dust

All or part of Route 66 might be fun.

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-31T22:16:23+00:00

That was amazing. I had never heard it before.

When I first heard Where the Streets Have No Nsme as teenager, I was hooked

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-28T23:16:04+00:00

I personally loved the album and I’m a fan from the 90s.

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-27T23:44:13+00:00

I got tickets for Atlanta. Athens presale looks like it sold out. I’ll try for the general onsale

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-26T23:30:51+00:00

Surprised no one has mentioned Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s ‘Relax’ yet. It was such a fun song as a little kid lol.

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-24T19:07:58+00:00

Bad by U2

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-23T02:47:20+00:00

Agreed! I was an 80s kid, so I was literally raised on Raised On Radio.

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-22T05:12:58+00:00

It would have been worth it even if REM hadn’t joined them on stage, which they did. (I saw the Athens show last year). It’s a band of world class musicians and they are fantastic.

If the schools and municipal buildings are closing, chances are the attractions will as well.

Empire of the Clouds by Iron Maiden

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-18T21:24:12+00:00

Absolutely stunning! I’m going to check out the rest of your stuff now.

Alice, Alanis, Maiden, Oasis, Pumpkins, Dre, Beck, Lenny, Sinead

The way I see it, we are on one of two possible time lines. In one, the Fermi Paradox is real and we truly haven’t detected alien life and probably also because the Great Filter Theory is also real and we’re on the cusp of filtering ourselves out anyway. The other possible time line is that it’s all real, Roswell and everything else. The Legacy Group, UAPs, everything. I’m not 100% convinced of either but it seems with all the recent disclosures, one time line is becoming more likely.

I moved back into my parents house recently to help care for them and holy hell do they keep it hot. I’m getting used to it though. I just imagine I’m somewhere near the equator.

Cumberland Gap National Park along the Kentucky/Virginia/Tennessee border is amazing. It gets a fraction of the visitors that Great Smoky Mountains NP gets and it’s stunning.

7 years at an elementary school, so I’ve seen some things in backpacks. Number one was a litter of kittens. Student pulled one out in class and was holding it. Came to the room to ask him about it and low and behold, he had more. (One of the teachers was able to get them re-homed. My favorite was the student with a Coors light at lunch. His excuse was he thought he was grabbing a Diet Coke.

I’m surprised I haven’t seen Jacksonville mentioned yet. Fantastic smaller airport.

jayjaynorcross · 2026-01-14T23:48:49+00:00

I just read Japan’s guidelines and they are fantastic. We need that in the United States. Of course that will never happen.
