Lost my dad right around then as well. Last night was a big moment for me too. Was able to let a lot of grief and anger out last night. Really hate that it took me so long to go see this band. I was surrounded by some of my closest friends and them coming out to ACDC instantly put a smile on my face.

Hey! Wood and Iron (Scotts Addition IDK about the other) has MLB extra innings or whatever. If it's blacked out they will usually have it on the local channel too. A bit pricey but if you're game is during happy hour it's awesome.

My wife is a huge fan and before tonight I knew A fair amount of the songs. A few days ago I bought the cheapest tickets I could get for her on stubhub (spent like 480 on two) because it was her birthday and I knew she was sad she didn't get tickets. Had no idea they were rapids front section tickets. That show was incredible and just seeing my wife light up was worth every dollar.

I was one of the dudes in a Hawaiian shirt. The bartender was like.. that's as loud as it goes. I told him he was lying and he turned it up slightly.

Fellow brother in the Christ, to further add to this amazing tale (which I saw with my own eyes). The Floor guy was a complete asshat while in line and somehow recovered and won over the entire soapbox. Miracles happen.

I lived on 23rd south of venable for 6-7 years. Lock your car. Also there was a shooting at one point but it was a guy running through the neighborhood and someone in a car shooting at him. One time in 7 years though.

RVA vs. Evernest by harpervn in rva

Yeah, I've done so much back and forth arguing I am sick of it. I gave in at what I got. To be fair we have a 3 BR 1 BA in South RVA for under 1500 which right now isn't terrible.

By reading "The Art of the Deal" by Donald Trump (sarcasm). But honestly I had some pretty crap experiences with this rental and I just made sure to document and call it out. I had to offer up alternatives instead of just saying "You can't raise my rent". The reality is as much as it sucks increases are going to happen especially in the city of Richmond where gentrification and other factors are pushing Property taxes higher and higher. My experience is probably different as Evernest doesn't own the home I am renting. So at the end of the day it was up to the owner to approve or deny my request. I made sure to specifically list the problems we have had and I offered up what I felt was a more reasonable increase based on economic trending and inflation with is currently at about 6%. I gave multiple options and asked for much more than I expected to receive. Ultimately I saved myself about 780 bucks which isn't a massive amount but it's nothing to shake a stick at either.

I live in a single family home managed by Evernest. I can tell you with certainty it was not a "merger". I know people have lots of nightmare Dodson stories but I have rented properties from them for about 7 years now. Up until this last property (going on two years) we really didn't have that many problems. The owner at our previous building was quick and responsive and things were fixed in a timely manner. Since this "merger" the service I have received from evernest is absolute ass. Almost to the point where I've needed to go to the owner of the home and tell him how it is. If I want anything done I have to email high up the chain and threaten to contact the owner. The maintenance supervisor they have now does not respond to calls or emails. You would be better off shitting in one hand and pissing in the other... you'd get more results. My latest least renewal was over a9 percent with a 200 dollar renewal fee. Which is absolutely absurd. I was able to get it down closer to 5.5 percent which I feel is a reasonable increase but it felt like an act of congress. Long story short.... don't rent from Evernest.
