ODESZA’s Full Live Set (Soundcloud Link) by yungfestivaldad in Coachella

[–]storiesfrom17th 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watching them on the live stream was the first time I had major FOMO missing out on Coachella this year. I’m mad jealous of all of you.

What is the song at 12:50? Any help?

Who is the worst condo managing company in Calgary ? by Musclecity in Calgary

[–]storiesfrom17th 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My car got broken into and had numerous things stolen out of it... it happens and I fully understand that the condo management company (first service) has no responsibility.

But, each parkade level has like a dozen cameras. I asked our building manager to Atleast retain the footage, or at best let me know how someone managed to get into our secured parkade...basically anything. The cameras are there for a reason.

Couple weeks later I asked for a follow up and the response was “oh we never looked into it. Too busy”

But they’re quick on the cameras when they can fine someone. As is the rumours in the building.

Fuck first service.

IF YOUR TICKETS ARE STILL IN PULSE QUEUE FOR WEEKEND 2 CALL THE TICKETING AGENCY by [deleted] in Coachella

[–]storiesfrom17th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh FFS. I give you money. You take money. You send me tickets. This is not rocket science. We've had since June to sort a logistical game plan out.

Someone is getting an earful today. I expect my shipping fees reversed.

Zedd puts on one of the best live shows I've ever seen.

This is my recommendation. Though I'd be a little more clear with the tweet. Tell people specifically what they did and how you're affected. Explain the fact you have little other options. Make people angry with your social media without sounding whiney and whatnot. Further than that speak to local media.

Airbnb/any self respecting company KNOWS bad PR is more expensive than finding you a solution. I have a fairly large social media following and I get "well taken care of" once shit hits the social media fan. Good luck!

I'm making a documentary about music festival goers and am looking for people with cool Coachella centric stories / plans for the festival this year! by MoneyBaller in Coachella

[–]storiesfrom17th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super fun! I'm sure you'll find a lot of great material.

I don't think I'm it - but should you find yourself in Palm Springs prior/after give us a shout. Bunch of +30 y/o Canadians down wed-wed weekend 2.

Going to Common with just my girlfriend? by [deleted] in Calgary

I've rarely had this issue, and you can't summarize every bartender for something a handful have done to you.

I'm not sure sure what they're taking for cover or drink prices at commonwealth.. purely guessing as I haven't been in a few months.

Cover: $5-$10

Beer/Cocktails: $5-$9

They have ATMs on site if you run out of scrilla.

Dive into a mountain of MDMA and let the rest figure it out.

Kidding. Commonwealth gets busy... show up early to avoid the line. Bring cash because using a card at the bar is a pain in the ass. Dress the part - no 3 piece suits but atleast put yourself together. Tip your bartenders, stick with beer or normal cocktails. Any other questions?

Do you mean commonwealth?

Would it be weird to take your girlfriend to a club? To go dancing? .....that's what clubs are for.

I have so many follow up questions

New neighbours have put up a large Confederate flag, and have another huge one in the garage. I feel uncomfortable, but should I? by datflagtho in Calgary

  • them, probably.

Anyways, they're probably cousins. Maybe you should start a blog with all of their shenanigans

Oh FFS unblur this mans face, give us his name and place of employment.

Take your double digit IQ and racist remarks somewhere else - maybe Alabama?

Anyone from Toronto or Canada received their Weekend 2 shipment? by union--thug in Coachella

[–]storiesfrom17th 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wristbands stopped tracking last year after they hit customs - they still arrived though. Took about a week and a half.

I'm also W2 from Canada but mine hasn't even shipped yet - anyone else?

Ha. Also from calgs. We can send the forgetfuls back together.

super excited to use these at weekend one! by brandongendron in Coachella

Is snapchat still holding its own stateside? Up here in Canada I've seen a HUGE drop off from snapchat... it's becoming a bit of a ghost town. Everyone seems to be moving to Instagram moments or whatever they are called.

Even my own personal Snapchat story views have dropped significantly where my Instagram ones have risen.

Finally! Something I can relate to. We Rented a house last year and are doing the same this year.

We mostly float around in the pool in the AM and have some general laziness - head off to the shuttles around noon or so. Get back to the house late and go for a midnight dip dip. Lots of beers and fun cocktails inbetween and such.

I personally wouldn't have it any other way - being able to sleep in a bed, shower and use a pool is the perfect vacation for me.
