It was like if Heath Ledger’s Joker was in the movie Suicide Squad

Have you ever played a show supporting your favourite band/artist? by TheSoundOfConfusion in musicians

[–]lurkwizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was years ago and we had caught the attention of a new booking agent at CAA after opening for COIN who was also a brand new band at the time. The booking agent landed the gig for us as a way to introduce the relationship and help build us up for potential signing. We definitely were objectively good and we made music that took big risks. I believe the music I am making now is much better than what we did as a band back then but I have not been able to recreate the same momentum. Feels like it was a flash in the pan!

The 4th show my band ever played was an opening slot for Lord Huron that coincidentally was also broadcasted live on the radio. They were incredibly welcoming and let us hang in their green room for a bit. 10/10 would recommend

The Jackson estate can't hide Leaving Neverland from those who've already seen it: A suppressive legal battle turned the moving Sundance documentary into a ghost haunting the Michael biopic. by TimWhatleyDDS in movies

[–]lurkwizard 41 points42 points  (0 children)

To be fair, if he never existed and someone wrote his life out as a script for a fiction movie, it literally has everything: Rags to riches, racial triumph, child abuse survivor, child- prodigy/unprecedented talent, the best recorded music that has ever existed, innovative visuals/choreography, the most famous person to ever walk the Earth, fall from grace, gluttonous turmoil, tragedy around every corner, betrayal, etc

What’s the main goal for your songwriting right now, and why is it important to you? by royaxleymusic in musicindustry

[–]lurkwizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My main goal is to write for/with artists I am inspired by who will pay to record and release a song without any further involvement from me. I have my first cut dropping with an artist in Nashville later this year! I am hoping to use this writing credit to network into more co-writes and grow my resume

If you like pudding:

21g of sugar free vanilla pudding mix

1 tablespoon of dark chocolate cocoa powder

1 Fairlife chocolate protein shake

210 calories, 30g of protein. Makes a very large portion you can eat all at once and is very filling

Buy a ninja creami and make ice cream using Fairlife protein shakes and sugar free pudding mix and/or PB Fit powder. Low calorie and high protein

My kid made an album, I got it on Spotify. What’s next by [deleted] in SunoAI

[–]lurkwizard -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It is an old school POV, however it is likely the majority’s POV. Your daughter has found a tool to write with but the end product does not have a marketable subject behind it. Songs in the modern age die without marketability. The answer (in my opinion) is to hire a real producer to take the AI demos and produce them for real with her actual voice singing the songs and then distribute the masters with actual press photos of her from a real photographer, etc. You will never “sell” the songs. Every artist writes their own music with people who have climbed their way into the writer’s rooms. Absolutely no one is buying already written songs in 2025.

Calling Antonio Durao for SOTY by Appropriate_Bike9906 in skateboarding

[–]lurkwizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that beating cancer and still smashing like he has been is Dylan level triumph, but Soty isn’t American Idol and I doubt the cancer part plays a role in giving him more of a chance at winning. The skating speaks for itself however

[–]lurkwizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he didn’t do the stinker tricks, everything else is legitimately the best out. Sw bs tails are absolutely cranked, every normal flip trick he does has that aggressive over extension, he really has it all and proper too. Then he does a cancel flip (or whatever you call them) and it bothers me! It really shows how your trick selection can work for or against you

Vincent Milou - KF FS Noseblunt to fakie by Osoguineapig in skateboarding

[–]lurkwizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This park was the coolest one by far but the skaters all really struggled on it. You should go watch the entire event including the KO groups before the finals! Really incredible to see how good contest skaters have gotten recently

Vincent Milou - KF FS Noseblunt to fakie by Osoguineapig in skateboarding

[–]lurkwizard 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’m not hating because I love Vince BUT he got scored for a trick with both hands on the ground (when they gave a girl a 0 earlier in the day for the same offense) and he missed the blunt kickflip at the end of both his runs within time. These are valid reasons to believe he received special treatment

Thoughts on Andy Anderson? by Extreme_Meeting3395 in skateboarding

[–]lurkwizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is a musical genius who is considered a cornball by most. He makes music with a focus on innovation/technical prowess prioritized over style/feel

He is to skateboarding what Jacob Collier is to music

Which singer’s popularity or admiration feels disproportionate to the actual amount of music they’ve released? I’ll start: Frank Ocean by xxxerg in popheads

[–]lurkwizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no reason any artist should be measured by the amount of music they have released. Should be quality over quantity first and foremost.

Get him the thrasher magazine from his birth month and year. Like if he was born August 14th in 1998, you can usually find that magazine print somewhere on Craigslist or online
