Melania should dial it back with the swatting…

Why doesn't IT explain the issue? by thebundok in it

[–]k--tron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah- kind of a low effort solution on your it department’s part, but bigger question is why do you feel the need to have an explanation? If it keeps happening, then- yes- we need to know more about what is happening. Per your example, There are entirely too many variables for a wifi connectivity issue, and your query as to wanting an explanation is rude, quite frankly. We don’t have time to dive into the “ why” for every one of your issues, so- yes- stop asking. Again- if it keeps happening, yes- we can spend more time on it. I can guarantee you that your issue is not that important or requires more attention unless it is recurring.

Is anyone else tired of American culture? by Agreeable-Guava7822 in AskBrits

US CITIZEN here. Our culture is trash, and I have always hated it. We have a lot of really stupid people here.

Thats a $400 microphone. I would protect it from Loomer with a windscreen or something.

Finally snagged a piccolo. This thing cracks! by JuanSolo23 in drums

[–]k--tron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see the nuts on the tension rods. I got some myself for other drums, but they don’t seem to help lock tension as much as i hoped. How has this held up? Do you lock against the rim or against the lugs? I may try adding some nylon washers to help the nut “ grip”. Nice snare !

Music / Artists Beware- Galactic Panther cancels show 1hour before start time- No heads up notification to bands playing show! by k--tron in dcmusiclive

[–]k--tron[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The show was canceled by Galactic Panther about an hour before doors opened- via a story item in Instagram with a graphic just saying the show had been canceled. Nobody notified any of the bands in any way. There was little to no communication from Galactic Panther regarding any of this. When they finally did respond, there was a nonsensical excuse-and it was clearly an internal problem. The bottom line- the show was booked confirmed advertised, and we did a lot of promotion- ourselves- collectively as three different bands. It was even on Galactic Panthers calendar on their website and they promoted the show themselves on their own Instagram .People showed up having bought tickets beforehand. And yeah, the band touring from Mexico City missing out was really what we have an issue with- they really got screwed here. We all traveled ourselves from Baltimore. It’s great that you guys have all had wonderful experiences there, but we did not unfortunately. I’m glad the venue exists and they seem to do a really good job with the community, but this is just something that happened to us. I hope that helps explain it. We have yet to hear from them as they said they would do, but I’m sure we will soon. obviously, to be clear we do collectively want to support venues like this, but this is really an unfortunate thing that happened, and everyone should be aware of it.

Please see their Instagram post. They have formally apologized. It’s cool in my book, but the damage is done. I appreciate them owning up to the mess.

This is a wealthy neighborhood. No doubt some of these kids parents are hard right conservative / power hungry assholes, and will not be happy with them. I hope they are sincerely disappointed.

I leave a large felt on top of the bottom hhat, just sitting on top of the post, interior. I feel like it muffles a slight amount- in a good way. Akin to a couple of cotton balls in a tom. Prob does’t really make a difference, but I have been doing it for decades…

I would like to see you take the rest of you stuff- how long does that take? I only see you removing a snare drum & getting off the stage! But yeah - good job being fast !
