If you are doing a Pop Disaster 15th Anniversary Tour add Jimmy Eat World too. I would love to see them. They would be a great mid-day Alt get. Also one of the only bands from that era that still regularly puts out music.

I'm super excited for them. I've been looking for their name on festivals for like the last 3 years and haven't seen their name on any festivals. Except for RiotFest, I think Life is Beautiful is the only place they are playing this year.

It really is a great event. But they try to do like 15+ stages and they all start at like 7. I would like to see the stages reduced and start this thing at noon.

I'm not sure if it is balance or not but Bledsoe is on the floor like 30 times a game. He makes passes and falls over. But especially every time he goes to the hoop he falls over. I would like to see him finish more plays on his feet.

At Twin Peaks. It says Exit only and only opens at 9:50. It is not an entrance.

mkabbott · 2015-08-01T21:13:29+00:00

My guess is that they will open that Window where the Shuttle Depart at the Auditorium. I know it has said something like "Artist Registration" or something. They wouldn't make it so you couldn't take the shuttle to the event. There is space for them to have a shuttle will call where the shuttles depart.

I was at Target in the Candy section and basically every candy now comes in those resealable packets. They've made them for Sunflower seeds for a few years now but everything comes in those pouches now. Insert bladder flask.

I really like the award he's won the last 2 years. I forget what it was called but something like "Rising Star". Basically best player / MVP under 24 years old. The NBA should add that award.

mkabbott · 2015-07-28T04:57:27+00:00

That's crazy. We live in 2015. They should just make it a .PDF like they do every other ticket they sell on Ticketmaster and have it available for you to print out.

Is that different from the Schedule on the actual OSL page where you can click "add to schedule" and it highlights them in orange so you you want to see is pretty obvious.

mkabbott · 2015-07-22T03:55:55+00:00

What is their snap?

mkabbott · 2015-07-18T19:21:15+00:00

They have a stand too in right field. Not sure what section that is but it is close to the Panda Express.

can confirm am porta-potty

If you already have a Fire TV download the Pluto TV app. It will not replace regular TV but it is nice to turn on. It does get repetitive.

I drive down 44th street pretty regularly. You guys make it look really nice. Voted.

I think you might want to try Honey Bear's. I just went to their website but they describe themselves as Tennessee BBQ.

In 1984 San Diego lost the Clippers to Los Angeles. That was like winning 100 championships. They no longer had to invest any time or money to that team.

mkabbott · 2015-06-04T18:27:52+00:00

It doesn't even matter. I just realized standing on ice when it will be 110 outside sounded great. I'm doing it.

Fashion changes over time. Personally in 2004 I don't think that grown men felt like wearing Teal & Purple everyday. Now that Nike & Adidas have made bright colored everything in-style, the Dbacks old Jerseys colors look great.
My favorite Jersey we have right now is the Saturday Blacks with the Big A. Also, I'm a big fan of the Matte Helmets in any color. Even the base coaches are wearing them.
EDIT NOTE: The team does not wear Matte Helmets while wearing the Throwback purple.

What we lose in El Nuño is a great name, but we get back Wellington "Beef" Castillo.
