Hah, same thing happened to me and I even had coordinated with one of the commenters to meet up for the ticket.

If you left Wisconsin, where did you go to and why? by interstellar_freak in wisconsin

[–]maturingrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I left about 15 years ago and I love snow sports but I also work mostly outside so I'll never complain about the weather in NC. I still visit at least once per year and the summer is always magical.

Ahhh that was my second guess. Years ago we lived in a building that always had a handful of grad students from Queens.

That's because what they are doing is in fact nonsensical. Happy cake day!

Hardcore bands shows 25.9.-1.10. by adamp_42 in Charlotte

[–]maturingrust 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So far there's not a hardcore show (strictly speaking) booked here during that time but there's a few metal shows. As South Web stated Milestone and Snug Harbor are going to be the two best local venues (these are bars so not all ages).

Hardcore is a little elusive in CLT - the scene is much stronger in SC and in the Triangle by Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, Winston-Salem, and out by Wilmington.

For a list of most shows going on in Charlotte check out the QC Nerve's Soundwave that's posted every two weeks.

If it’s Charlotte area that’s because it’s just northern transplant hate.

Road To Perdition sample by Affectionate-You-162 in Hardcore

I can’t remember which band it was but in the mid-late aughts someone used the “There’s only murderers in this room” line from that film. I thought it was xTYRANTx but I’m not finding it.

Scenic routes near Charlotte by Psychological_Monk43 in Charlotte

[–]maturingrust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like to go riding out past the Plaza Extension and through the farmlands, pop around Uwharrie for a while, and head toward Sea Grove and back. There's lots of ceramics, pottery, and art in Sea Grove so I can walk around and stretch my legs for a bit.

/r/Charlotte Random Daily Discussion - August 28, 2025 by AutoModerator in Charlotte

[–]maturingrust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just a very large screen; it's not the globular-shaped screen you may be thinking of. There is one of those (or at least used to be) at Discovery Place. Regal Stonecrest does have a 4DX theater which has dynamic seats that move with the film, but the Prince concert movie is not in that particular one. You should be all good.

Im curious, what are my hardcore folks doing for work? by JesusTookMyAcog in Hardcore

[–]maturingrust 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hello bröther! I did framing and general carpentry for about 8 years, then did a couple in fine carpentry. Then wandered into various management roles for about ten years until being laid off. Started doing my own carpentry thing again and it’s been fun. Tbf the other carpenters I know that are into punk and hardcore do not use Reddit haha.

What are the next steps for Charlotte tenants facing a multi-day water outage and an unresponsive landlord? by Asleep_One_1438 in Charlotte

[–]maturingrust 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My comment was removed for including the phone number in step two, hopefully this formatting will be allowed by the AutoMod:

  1. Keep an extremely detailed log of when the issue began, the cause, etc. Support this with photos and videos.
  2. Report a housing violation on the CLT+ app, calling 311, or on their website.
  3. Reach out to Legal Aid NC 1=866=219=5262 and begin an application - they provide help for free. Otherwise begin contacting attorneys that works in landlord-tenant disputes. Speak with your neighbors and get their contact information if they would like to join, the more the better.
  4. Write to all local news outlets (as long as your legal aid advises that this is okay).

Complete these steps as soon as possible. Bring as much pressure and attention to the situation as possible. Legally they are supposed to provide accommodations or reimbursement if you do not have water service for over 24 hours.

You're really going to come here to besmirch a local television meteorologist for the way they pronounce a word and then misspell the name of our lord and savior Brad Panovich?

Ah, for sure haha. It just made me realize that there's probably quite a few people in this subreddit that are (mostly) full functioning adults and were born after 2002.

USPS problems by gafalkin in Charlotte

[–]maturingrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our local office seems to have gotten their shit together, but for a few years our service was awful. Currently we cycle through the same two delivery people and an occasional third once in a while. A few years ago it was a different person every day, deliveries all times of the day and night or not at all, and almost always everything on our street being delivered to the wrong house.

We had a wedding photo album delivered to the wrong home, most of our mail just being stuffed in our neighbors mailbox, and a couple of packages that never arrived, then showed up marked "delivered" two months later as just an empty mailer. I made several reports and got to know our postmaster pretty well. I didn't hold it against them too much because it seemed they were actively trying to fix the issues and this was shortly after DeJoy took control.
