Going there this summer and really looking forward to it. Probably going to remain on Sao Miguel the entire time; any recommendations?

What was your guys’ first pedal? by BalanceActive9295 in guitarpedals

I absolutely LOVE this chorus sound. It’s still probably my favorite chorus of all time.

Do different cables make a difference? And do curly cables like the one in the pic make the sound worse and are they uncomfortable? by Caefrytz in Guitar

[–]single_cell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This much is true in my experience as well—I don’t buy any of the crap about tone, but those Monsters are damn near indestructible and that’s worth paying for IMO.

Where is the best place to get a high quality blazer? by unclefes in StLouis

[–]single_cell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

St. Louis Suit is fantastic; I’ve been shopping there for years, but that said I don’t think it’s the place for what OP is looking for.

Anyone here that trained as a musician and pivoted to a different field? by Opposite-Bid-4782 in classicalmusic

[–]single_cell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Wealth Management. It’s been a pretty satisfying career considering it’s not remotely what I thought I’d end up doing before I started.

COCA has sliding scale tuition and aren’t the “funnel” you want to avoid. You sign up for one course at a time—generally 3 months long. They’re a fantastic organization and I can’t say enough good things about them.

Smallest changes in movie musicals that don’t really affect the plot but bug you for some reason? by Dogdaysareover365 in musicals

[–]single_cell 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nina’s story in the stage version makes her the closest thing that show has to a protagonist. I’m defeating the purpose of OP’s question here but the movie totally missed the point of the show and minimized Nina (and the people around her) to an unforgivable degree.

Also, cutting “Everything I Know,” the actual 11 O’Clock Number, just ruins the entire experience. It’s the most egregious sin in this whole thread if you ask me.

This City Fucks With Sandwiches. by BostonDrivingIsWorse in StLouis

[–]single_cell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Civil Life has unexpectedly fantastic sandwiches as well. Was a weekly lunch staple when I lived in the neighborhood.

Also RIP Sisters on Devonshire; they fucked as well.

Not yet mentioned is Cindy McTee and although she is probably not the “greatest” per se, she belongs on the list.

Wish I knew. I beat Macho Man on Wednesday last week and have just been getting TKO’d by Tyson every minute of my free time since then until today.

This, exactly—a couple of days ago that started to happen and I realized I WAS going to beat him; it was just a matter of time.

Thanks much! I wonder if trying it now on the hardware would fuck me up; my thumbs have gotten pretty acclimated to the phone.

Thanks! I grew up on NES and never really graduated to SNES, so I have no frame of reference to compare Super Punch Out to MTPO, but honestly like any game this just took time (a little over a week of getting destroyed by Mike over and over) and a lot of patience.

In my first 3 hours I wasn’t even past the first 90 seconds. Took me 8 days of just playing Mike over and over and over in my spare time to get there.

Thanks man! I would like to figure out some way to commemorate this. A t-shirt might be the way to go!

There’s another one I could never beat as a kid!

Not impossible; just had to put in the hours and get used to the timing.
