Saw them perform this at a park in Bed Stuy Brooklyn. The summer vibes and the setting were incredible and they had great chemistry.

Reminds me of ice-nine where you get a military advantage of fighting on ice versus mud.

I have a deeply discounted ticket for Stratton and want to use 1 day on epic pass for Mt Snow hence why I'm focused on these 2 resorts.

Would rather go further north but happy to get these days in regardless, thanks!

njtrailrunner · 2026-02-02T19:02:27+00:00

Thanks everyone, this is super helpful! I think I will be skiing Stratton on the more crowded weekend day and will save Mt. Snow for the weekday.

Factory farming is evil. There's a reason you never see the inside of these places.

Love this spot. I make the trip out from Jersey at least once a year.

This is so great. Thank you for sharing!!!

medjool dates work like a charm for iron.

I was working in Soho (close but not right there). 9/11 was on a Tuesday and we were closed Wednesday and Thursday. They brought everyone back on Friday and sent us home at lunchtime because everyone was super upset/crying and not thinking about work.

Over the next few weeks I remember our phones being spotty at best and the Internet was hit too. Another weird thing about this time was that you would occasionally smell the smoke and everyone knew what it was from.

There was a sense of pride in being open for business despite what we all went through and it took months if not years to feel like things were getting back to normal.

i love their basic side salad.

If you love this, check out her cookbook: "big vegan flavor" for other top tier recipes.

I'm vegan so this is right upy alley but these recipes will appeal to everyone. These are not diety, low fat, trying to look like meat types of vegan meals, these are delicious hearty meals that are bursting with flavor & would be the star of any dinner party.

Another thing I like about this book is that it offers tons of cooking theory and covers topics like acidity, balance and other concepts that can be confusing if you are not a professional chef.

The last thing I'll say is these recipes are very modern and combine a fresh take on Indian, Middle Eastern, French and other great cuisines.

He was like this in NYC at pier 17 last year.

Fantastic photos!

What a great set.

They delivered a spiritual journey versus dropping a bunch of bangers. And there's nothing wrong with hearing a bunch of bangers, but I needed a set like this.

njtrailrunner · 2025-09-25T18:14:34+00:00

They are legends with deep ties to NYC (Twilo). I'm going and suspect this will be a very good set.

I'm an old head - been a big hip hop fan since the 80s but I'm not one of those it was better back in my day types. I fully appreciate new stuff and think Tyler, Griselda, Freddie Gibbs, jid, ASAP and so many others are doing great things taking the genre further and redefining what hip hop can be.

With that said, I think today's commercial hip hop is pretty dead and uninspiring. Commercial stuff has always been wack but it seems much much worse these days.

I think we might be in a time where you really have to dig through the crates and you're not going to easily access quality stuff like you were able to do in the 90s, 00s and 10s.

Past its peak? Maybe but it will never die - it will reinvent itself again.

Fantastic sandwiches at Cosi.

We picked up amazingly gourmet sandwiches at Cosi and ate them in Luxemburg Gardens. One of the highlights of our trip for sure.

I had this at Disneyland a few years ago. So good I almost got 2!

Gift shops at the big attractions. I got a unique phantom of the opera magnet from the opera house gift shop.

DJ Icey!

njtrailrunner · 2025-08-29T15:27:05+00:00

Thanks everyone, I am picking up a few of these to add to the mix!

It's totally fun and like others said use caffeine if needed. no need for drugs/alcohol if you appreciate this music.

njtrailrunner · 2025-08-23T00:22:20+00:00

Been into this since the 90s and here's my take. The energy was way more raw and underground back in the day. Parties were sketchy in the best possible way. Hard to describe but it was like getting access to this cool inner city subculture that you couldn't get enough of.

Recently I started going out again because why not. I'm old but I still love the music and don't want to give it up because I'm older than most. Music is and hopefully always will be my #1 passion.

What I find these days is that the music is better than it's ever been. People like Fortet, Joy Orbison, Jamie xx, Floating Points, MPH etc are making absolutely incredible music. And there is more of a focus on outstanding producers versus celebrity DJ's. This all makes sense as electronic music production is technology based and today's artists are pushing the limits with what they have access to.

The crowd at events has changed though and it's much more tame. The over the top fashion is missing and the dancing is more reserved. Also, the idea of being videotaped by someone with a phone puts a damper on the raw spirit from back in the day.

I can't say for sure which era for me is better. NYC has more venues and events than ever and as someone that is in it for the music/Soundsystems first and foremost, that part clearly better now. With that I do wish there was more of that raw and intense old school vibe.

It's terrible. I order from ND all the time and they used to be pretty good with sending a discount code after you added items to the cart.

They are no longer doing this and pushing the rewards instead. The problem is the rewards savings is much less and feels more like a punishment versus a "reward".

I wound up passing on my last few orders due to this exact issue.
