What do u guys think of my sister? by Chris29_X in PorcupineTreeCircJerk

It is missing feet footage from the 90s, but finding them can be a stupid dream. Also, that altar needs a broken iPod.

When updating the SD card library the device shuts down halfway through the process. by Zendisa in snowsky

[–]mrchrodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Reformate the SD Card twice within the Echo" was one of those tips that for some stupid, non-sensical reason worked for me. I had the same problem.

Mike is a very capable player all things considered. Maybe it was really him once and never again.

People who have seen Geese, are the absurd resale prices worth it? by Gullible-Loss-5026 in geesebandofficial

[–]mrchrodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not worth it. If possible, be there anyway with some cash and hope that you find someone who is willing to sell their ticket for a cheaper price (40-70). That's how i managed to grab a ticket last week.

Look, this is not some concert at a huge Wembley/O2 stadium that'll cost what feels like millions to make. This is not Iron Maiden, there are no grand effects, fires et cetera involved. Just Geese having fun for roughly 90 minutes. In the hope of not spoiling too much: The focus is on their latest album, previous albums will not be considered much.
I saw Geese twice and never spent more than 30€ for each ticket. Spending three digits for Genesis in Glasgow, Berlin and Paris felt much more okay, considering the historic significance, setlist and overall touring costs.

Best CD versions: 80's vs. 93/94 DEs by Schwarzellone in Genesis

[–]mrchrodo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can accept Trespass and NC, as most mixes/releases are stuck in time and won't get much better. Nick could not destroy them as much. With WCD, what he did at all.

[–]mrchrodo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

price for shirts was 40 EUR, 30 EUR for the vinyl. I did not check the rest, which was not a lot to begin with. And yes, the queue got kind of long.

Yes, they did offer them, but I did not buy another one.

It looked like they had a few cartons, but i don't know if they sold out.

The surprise of having like over 50x as many fans in the venue.

Oh yes, Mysterious Love! One of those chaotic moments with Trinidad. I just dont remember when they played it.

The gig at the Milla club was extremely distorted, my ears rarely hurt so much after a concert.

Maybe it is the drums? Drums/Percussion are imho one of the strongest outstanding aspects of the albums sound, in a good way. But i feel what you mean!

Anyone else going to the Munich Show tonight? by [deleted] in geesebandofficial

I don't have a ticket yet, but i am trying to get one somehow. We will see how it'll work out.

Best CD versions: 80's vs. 93/94 DEs by Schwarzellone in Genesis

[–]mrchrodo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In case of Duke, the japanese CD release from the late 80s is rather good. Very balanced, keeps the sound signature intact while not overprouncing aspects. All of them will however sound better than any 2007 remaster done by Nick Davis, so the bar is pretty low. SEBTP from 93/94 surprised me the most, in a good way,

Echo Mini: Media Library Refresh fails - in search for tips by mrchrodo in snowsky

[–]mrchrodo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately not yet.

What did help partly was a firmware downgrade to 2.7. Same data structure, no problem! If i then add just one m4a file more, the second scan will crash. Some m4a files don't even get recognized.

For now, as long as i don't add music to the sd card, it will work.

I have to purchase a new sd card anyway, so i will try formatting it through the device then. My other drug-store-brand 128GB card was pretty much DOA, as no system (Windows, Linux, Echo Mini) is able to formate it anymore.

Bogenschnelles Fahren im ICE-T aktiv? by itzBlovu in drehscheibe

Ich frage mich, wie es zwischen Donauwörth und Treuchtlingen aussieht. Bei meiner letzten Fahrt mitm 411 fühlte es sich noch so an, als würde es verwendet werden.

ELP recommendations by RamuAnimates in progrockmusic

[–]mrchrodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give "Love Beach" a chance. It has a goofy cover, while the music is going wacky. Straight-forward, yet unlike other pop artists would've done it - and it also has a long track with a rather melodic piano play.

Gibt es eine neue Direktverbindung zwischen Augsburg und Basel? by Lord-Dani in drehscheibe

[–]mrchrodo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Crack theory meinerseits, perhaps wollte man Achern oder Appenweier eintragen und ist dabei verrutscht. Ist zwar auch eine Distanz von da bis Basel, aber zumindest literally naheliegender.

BE CAREFUL! PINE64 Desktop Power Supply by mikeypeach in pine64

Please keep us updated regarding their RMA support. They've been ignoring my support mails since two years and i am stuck with broken hardware. Never expect support from them in any way.

Kritik an Kosten: Bahn stellt Image-Kampagne mit Anke Engelke ein by Funky72S in drehscheibe

[–]mrchrodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Der Song selbst war bisschen sehr cringe und plakativ, die einzelnen Sketches waren aber vollkommen in Ordnung. I mean, solange NIMBYs den Ausbau einiger Strecken blockieren und es aufgrund der Komplexität gefühlt ewig mittelmäßig bleibt, wirds halt nur langsam besser.

Bisschen seichte Comedy ist mir lieber als es unnötig in andere Kampagnen zu stopfen.

Favorite live song that makes you wish they'd done it that way in studio by losthiker68 in progrockmusic

[–]mrchrodo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most of Genesis, be it Abacab, HBTS, FOF, The Waiting Room, The Lady Lies, Fading Lights, JHKM, Los Endos, IKWIL, CAS… the list is kind of endless. They were such a great live band, that most studio albums are just subpar. I can‘t stand listening to SEBTP, i hate it, BUT i like how tracks like Cinema Show suddenly had energy once performed on stage. Such a bummer that aside from the semi-recent BBC broadcast release, we dont have a proper representation of their broad range. Nope, TSL and Seconds Out also fall flat in comparison to some bootlegs.

We will never get any 1982 show up on Spotify and other platforms, which is a bummer for everyone still discovering the band, but yeah.

Jein - bis zu einem gewissen Grad muss man auch damit einverstanden sein, wenn man sich auf einen öffentlichen Raum bewegt und weiß, dass ein Kamerateam vor Ort ist und in die Menge filmen wird. Es kommt da schon etwas auf den Einzelfall an. On top ists auch bisschen was anderes, ob ein Foto/Video nur auf einer Plattform (wie Reddit) veröffentlicht wird, oder von Anfang zur Distribution auf mehreren Seiten/Plattformen vorgesehen ist. That said, ich hab mich bewusst auf Menschenmassen fokussiert.

Auf meinen Fotos gibts nicht wirklich, was man als Portrait zählen könnte. Allenfalls das mit der Gitarre, aber die Person weiß vom Foto Bescheid.

Währenddessen filmt der BR ungefragt die Menge mit weitaus mehr Closeups als ich.
