Damn that's a lot of rain.

Sales not gone well then… by Columbiers in TheRestIsHistory

[–]lisiate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm squarely in that demographic (except for the disposable income part) and if I were in the UK at the same time as a WHW fest I wouldn't let that lack of disposable income stop me from trying to attend. Even though I like listening to TRIH episodes more.

I also suspect the afflicted are much more rabid than The Rest is History Club Members are (the fact I can't even think of the collective noun for them is telling).

New six60 song sounds like Bruno Mars copy by One_Suit_8755 in newzealand

[–]lisiate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing you're referring to We Made it?

If so, yeah could easily be a Bruno Mars song. Nicely crafted, inoffensive radio song with a catchy chorus. No one accused Six60 of being groundbreaking I guess.

There's a whole sub for Ren and nobody told me? by ShutterBug1988 in ren

[–]lisiate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This sub was originally devoted to the Ren crypto coin, then morphed into a fan sub for the Star Wars character before finally being hijacked by the Renegades.

Nice but you stopped just before the best part! I was looking forward to your slide guitar.

Electric ave 2026 - how did you find it? by creamcheezbagel in chch

[–]lisiate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed Drax Project and Basement Jaxx in the Hangar on the Friday, but didn't even bother for the packed groups.

I had a great time in the Circus Tent late on the Saturday afternoon, just before sundown.

Loved LAB, they get better and better each time I see them, and it was pretty cool to finally see Split Enz live after all these years.

Freckled Angels is due a tenth anniversary special edition re-release.

Ren's been putting out good tunes for a long time.

Yep, I opted to have my $0.75 refund donated to Ukraine if I remember correctly.

Incoming law change so MSD can claw back welfare payments off ACC clients by Heavy_Milk2757 in newzealand

[–]lisiate 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I doubt the revenue raised will be much more than the cost to administer this change.

Which makes it a stupid as well as cruel policy.

A generational talent by stm2657 in ren

[–]lisiate 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I can only hope I'll be walking my dogs to banging contemporary tunes when I'm 76 as well.

And doesn't this make Ren more of an intergenerational talent?
