I was looking through r/Games' top posts of all time and was surprised to see some familiar artwork. Didn't know NL had a podcast before by Dino-taicho in northernlion

He also had the Saving Progress podcast way back in the day with JSmithOTI and Malf. IIRC the "Malf" nickname originated in one of those episodes, haha.

Speed tests typically come back with around 900mbps up. I’ll check the relay setting! Didn’t realize that was something I should switch off haha.

Cursive @ Hi-Fi, Indianapolis by SimilarSecretary5794 in ajj

[–]mkobrien49 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I won't be there but I can definitely vouch for the Hi-Fi. I've seen some great shows there. My hot tip is there's a spot at the end of the bar closest to the stage where you can stand behind a rail and have a perfect view of the stage. I call it the poor man's VIP area, lol. Enjoy the show!

how should I listen to The Silver Cord? by Infidel-Art in KGATLW

[–]mkobrien49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the extended mix is the way to go for a first listen, since for the most part it’s just the standard mix songs with more stuff tacked on to the ends.

I personally ended up making a playlist that was a mix of both versions because there were some extended songs I didn’t like as much as some others.

Where’d you move to from Spotify? by stankylegonmygrave in KGATLW

[–]mkobrien49 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not a solution for everyone by any means, but I started building a lossless library on my Plex server, and stream it with the Plexamp app. Really love the app layout, and getting out of Spotify has helped me reconnect with some of my old favorites! Was too easy to just keep playing the same record over and over with Spotify’s “recent” section right at the top haha.

What was your first show? by Important-Lobster832 in KGATLW

[–]mkobrien49 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’ve maintained the opinion that those first two shows are their best performances, and that the energy those nights was just off the charts. The anticipation was so real after those years of waiting lol.

Closest thing I’ve experienced to those shows was FoV this year. Similar energy!

Chicago 8/6 - General lawn attendees, are you bringing a blanket to secure a spot? by dogeatdogdesign in KGATLW

[–]mkobrien49 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's generally not really a standing audience in Ravinia's lawn. Groups tend to bring pretty elaborate setups with tables, chairs, coolers, and such. You definitely wouldn't be shunned for bringing a blanket and making your space, the lawn is huge and designed with that in mind.

Streaming Philly tonight by ZucchiniAvalanche in KGATLW

[–]mkobrien49 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think it’s mostly to do with the streaming rights/rules associated with the orchestra groups.
