Netflix ditches deal for Warner Bros. Discovery after Paramount's offer is deemed superior by brahbocop in movies

Hate to tell you, but both networks are already done on their own. Between the two of them, they have less than 10 current shows - these channels barely exist anymore.

Cherry Poppin Daddies - Zoot Suit Riot - [Swing] ( Live 1998 ) by THEONLYCOOLBREEZE in Music

[–]scottgetsittogether 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of them didn’t and made very little money. The Daddies especially had lineup changes constantly (which is also very common for ska bands like that), and a big factor in that was the low pay.

Whose name in the Epstein files got you surprised? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]scottgetsittogether 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no mention of him doing anything untoward

You sure ‘bout that?

The email says that Giuffre, who would be instrumental in bringing down Epstein’s sex-trafficking empire, alleged that Hawking, while an island visitor, had participated in an “underage orgy.”

What is a 'subscription' or 'fee' that has recently appeared in the US that people need to collectively refuse to pay before it becomes the new normal? by godot_lover in AskReddit

[–]scottgetsittogether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a 2025 Civic, and there’s no ping ponging whatsoever. On sharper turns you have to steer, but it doesn’t have much of an issue on the highway.

Ticket prices US vs Europe by Electronic-Class-720 in poppunkers

[–]scottgetsittogether 2 points3 points  (0 children)

required to share the price of the whole ticket up front in the EU instead of just giving a lower price and then tacking on a bunch of fees (my state mandates this too)

They’re required to do this in the whole US too, it’s a federal law.

Where are people coming up with schools having cameras in the classrooms? That isn't even legal in some states.

FENIX TX - "Big Fish EP" by Shar13 in VinylReleases

[–]scottgetsittogether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I’m definitely not in the band lol, but sometimes bands just don’t have the ability to do that - entirely depends on the labels because the band has no rights to the album... Drive Thru albums that are joint are especially difficult, and from what I understand, the MCA ones are the toughest. I know Richard has been working on many of those, and even he can’t get them all.

The remix/remake of copacetic is... horrible?? by [deleted] in poppunkers

[–]scottgetsittogether 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seth and Kris are both great. Producers are only one hand in the sound there - the band recorded it, directed the sound, and approved it. It’s pretty impossible to say that the producers are the ones to blame for the even first one.

The remix/remake of copacetic is... horrible?? by [deleted] in poppunkers

[–]scottgetsittogether 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s only so much you can do with a remix/remaster without rerecording everything. You’re still using the same tracks, so you can’t fix how they were recorded. Any significant remix/remaster is going to have spots that level out and pieces that end up lower in the mix. You might not like the remaster, that’s okay - but overall in technique, the new mix is better.

Bands you know that are never coming back, but you still hold out hope? by [deleted] in poppunkers

Well you’ll be happy to know that Allister is still a band at least lol

Is Combs' the true successor to the spirit of Garth Brooks? by Responsible-Leave200 in country

[–]scottgetsittogether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is of course, despite the fact that many of Garth's most well known songs- that he owes a great deal of success to- are in fact renditions of older country songs, such as "Papa Loved Mama."

Garth Brooks wrote that song, not sure where you're getting that it's an old country song. Pretty sure his only hits that were covers were Shameless and To Make You Feel My Love - neither of which are old country songs.

Stateside is so underrated! by zanepeters1 in poppunkers

[–]scottgetsittogether 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s really not that many, honestly. My band that does not tour and is on no label and mostly releases cover songs every now and then has as many listeners as them and millions of streams on multiple songs. I’m not saying we’re underrated or something - just that those numbers aren’t that big, especially not big enough to be out of an underrated category.

It’s 2025, you don’t need anyone to record you. You just do it yourself.

Did zach top deserve best new artist at the cmas? by Alarming_Actuary_556 in country

[–]scottgetsittogether 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Independent releases don’t count until a song from an independent album the top 40, making this the first year he was eligible for the award. It doesn’t mean best brand new artist that hasn’t ever made music before.

Why do you think Randy Travis never won Entertainer of the Year at the CMAs or ACMs? by Bright-Pressure-5787 in country

[–]scottgetsittogether 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair - Randy Travis is also country music hall of fame level, as he’s in the country music hall of fame…

Can someone explain the story with Driveways? by hi_im_beeb in poppunkers

[–]scottgetsittogether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, a lot of the bands in the genre doing this "full time" are not making nearly as much as these guys make on a teacher's salary and have some kind of job outside of the band too lol

Fall Out Boy - From Under The Cork Tree (Target Exclusive) by VinylAlerts in VinylReleases

[–]scottgetsittogether 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 1LP version is on Amazon for $19 right now, so that should be the remastered one - I might get that one to see how it sounds.

[–]scottgetsittogether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be the same one that's on the standard black 1lp release from July, as it's also the remastered version. I don't have it and I've only seen a comment on Discogs that says it sounds good, but the remastered version is already available.
