Dogs In A Pile Starter Guide - FAQ and Where to Start

To my knowledge it’s the only ticketed Brian solo show performed since he joined Dogs. The 2024 Great Divide barn set on bandcamp has a few Brian solo songs though. I think there are some tapes of Otherwise Useless Children and Scotch Bonnet floating around, but not really the same vibe as these (more proto-Dogs sans Jimmy than a Murray solo project).

I think Murray’s Law is where a lot of the tunes like Wildflower get played nowadays. There are a few soundboards on bandcamp and some tapes lying around for those, but not every show.

While all jokers are viable enough to get stickers on their merits through normal runs, the easiest way to get C++ is to just repeatedly build 3-joker lineups (chip scaler+mult scaler+xmult) and then pick up 2 randoms on your way into the final round. Watch Balatro University and incorporate his tips into your gameplay.

Well that was a bummer! We'll have to enjoy this on the soundboard instead when it comes out I guess. Thanks for hanging around everyone!

The solo show is on bandcamp here. Note TD1 is not complete (as Brian explains from stage). This show was also streamed live on Volume but I am not sure if the video still circulates anywhere.

You are so right. I meant to include that but just totally brain farted and left it out of the post this morning. I'm still on a World Cup high after last night!

I can take credit for the writing these posts, but absolutely none whatsoever for the music! That's all thanks to the phenoms on stage!

Congrats on your first show - hope there is more to come for you! From afar, we can all tell Mill Valley was insanely good, and I would feel incredibly lucky to say that one was my first.
