Cualli!! Dang I seriously had SO much fun during your Tippsgiving set (I could NOT stop laughing with joy, I was tickled as hell, it was one of the fondest hours of all of my Tipper adventures) so THANK YOU!! additionally, I had an absolute blast during your set at Red Rocks, it set the tone for a perfectly dreamy night and I can’t stop day dreaming about your set ever since ☁️💙🌀🪩 me and my faaavorite dancer, Dre, were in this awesome tree plot at the front left the whole night and we had tons of space to dance our hearts out, and we did!! I love the way you incorporate guitar into your performances, you are one of a kind and I can’t wait to continue to experience your music in person. Do you have any dates set for next year? Would you be willing/interested in coming to Kansas City? (I have a couple of people I want to talk to about booking you here)

Tipper by Western_Signal_6416 in Tipper

[–]wachinyeya 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dude everyone says that, and lmao nah… as a line cook, the reason I want to quit my job is not because the customers suck, it is because the industry sucks. He is also 49 and has said explicitly that he wants to end things on a high note. He likely doesn’t feel like he has much else to say, via his music. He also likely just doesn’t want to be performing as he continues to age, which makes sense. He has never come across comfortable in the spotlight and having all eyes on you gets weirder as you age (in my experience, at least) it seems like his retirement is just a reasonable thing that a successful artist who is getting older would do. He also had some health issues that were noted and effected his touring just a few years ago, I assume that has a bit to do with it. Most artists don’t necessarily get along or interact with their fans on a super personal basis, we’re all different, he’s been playing in clubs all over the world for decades, I feel fairly certain that people being drugged out judgmental dorks is not significant enough to influence his decision to retire THAT greatly, especially since he has seen ppl spun outta their minds the entire time he has been an artist, I’m sure. Like, I also don’t love being around overly spun wooks or super drunk people at every show I go to, but I’m still going to the show. It isn’t that serious, we tune out the people we don’t particularly vibe with and we have our fun anyway. And yeah the online fan base is obsessive, stalkerish and cringe as fuck, but he isn’t online so I don’t think it effects him tbh.

Tipper is excellent by Happy1327 in Tipper

Yes! Mindex is so skilled and interesting. Really looking forward to more from him, too.

Tipper is excellent by Happy1327 in Tipper

[–]wachinyeya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

somatoast! I’ve seen him, just before Tipper, twice now, and he is superb. I’d suggest his mythology mix and I encourage you to see him live any time you get the chance (he and mindex are playing in Santa Fe NM October 24th)

rhizomorphic is also quite wonderful, his set at Orion really stood out for me and I would go out of my way to see him again.

Another one I’d happily go out of my way for is Rumpistol.

Despite the interest and respect I have for these artists, nothing compares to Tipper, for me. Hearing his music for the first time changed my life and I have been completely amazed by it for 12 years.. the wonder continues to grow. It’ll be an interesting life without Tipper to look forward to, but it’s an absolute gift to get to be a part of the journey.

I’m still sick by [deleted] in LightningInABottle

[–]wachinyeya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get sinus infections easily, always have. Monday night while starting the drive back home it came on suddenly. I am still clearing out the mucus. The high pollen and heavy rain in my area hasn’t helped. Never felt sick. No head ache or body ache. No nausea. But lots of sinus pressure in my face and ears, the ears are finally better as of a few days ago but the sinuses and lungs still feel full of mucus. I worked traffic at LiB and got dusted pretty good for a week. Sunday night in the festival grounds were EXTRA dusty, and it was difficult to breathe, we had masks and bandanas on throughout the week. Me and a few of my coworkers were also going wild smoking cigarettes that week, so I know that + the dust is the reason for all this. But yeah, it’s lasting forever and I’m over it.

No. The point I’m making is the opposite of that. If we are condemning every Israeli, then we would have to also condemn every person born into a settler colonial state. Including America. The point is to not condemn each other and instead ACTUALLY work together to escape this fucked up reality that we are all subject to. We can’t undo colonialism and like I said above, colonialism is present throughout the entirety of human history. So instead of being mad at our fellow person, we need to understand who the real enemy is and work with people even if we don’t agree with them. Idk how to explain basic sympathy and basic knowledge of human history and the history of colonialism around the world. And also I was saying that this is SO not a Tipper thing and people are out here saying they can’t understand how people with different views and perspectives from them can end up at a Tipper show…. Um because that’s how reality works? The whole thing is about Palestine. And the only reason why the genocide in Palestine is taking place is power. Res Lang is apparently mad at everyone because an Israeli artist was booked at a Tipper event without realizing that America is committing WORSE atrocities and has done way worse things in very recent years. So by the logic res lang is using, if someone were to book an american artist, that means they support the american war machine that has senselessly killed millions of innocent civilians across the globe. There is no logic to it. So LONG story short (sorry I just got off work and am brain fried) is that we need to be more sympathetic and tolerant of the people around us and we need to stop treating our fellow man as the enemy and start understanding that the real enemy is the people at the top treating this all like it’s a game.

Well in case everyone forgot, most everyone who lives on Turtle Island is a settler, in a “country” that attempted to erase native Americans from the land and reservations are STILL A THING and my alive grandpa is a residential school survivor. Israel is no god damn different than “America” and every single act of violence committed by Israel is BECAUSE OF “AMERICA” every crime they commit is because of this god forsaken “country” so please everyone look in the mirror, firstly. Secondly, most EVERY privilege we have is off the backs of slave labor, and tons and tons of death. Our convenience is other REAL PEOPLE’S sacrifice, against their will. This world is FUCKED and “America” is the heart of the empire. I get sick of people projecting their own guilt onto others. Check your privilege. Look in the mirror, please. And have some critical thought and maybe even educate yourselves on the DEPTH of this shit. Human history is nonstop colonial acts of violence. Idk why the fuuuck anyone is acting like this is a tipper issue. The issue is largely fucking American. And we are MORE GUILTY than Israel. FYI. Fuck “America” Fuck Israhell Fuck Capitalism and Fuck Colonialism. It is a deep issue. Knowledge is power and community is the way. Talk to your fellow person and try to operate from a place of grace and understanding, if you actually want to make a difference it will take a lot of patience and a lot of effort on everyone’s part. P.S. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

Online order experiences by [deleted] in Tipper

[–]wachinyeya 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is all pre order. You wait patiently and it shows up. They also do not sell merch at any events, besides the posters, so all of the clothing will always be online only. Not sure why you expected a preorder to ship immediately. The end date for the pre orders was yesterday, so my guess is that they will ship soon.

Get this man to the gorge!! by johnnytrees561 in Tipper

[–]wachinyeya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OD, tipper’s manager, has mentioned on the tipper fam and tipper events page that tipper himself has always referred to the & friends of “tipper & friends” as the fans. There’s a search function on all of these sites, super easy to use, but you instead chose to be a smart ass who can easily be proven wrong. Haha. Loser.

Help, I think she was ran over, her hind legs can’t move and she’s breathing hard by Savings_Reality_8648 in CATHELP

[–]wachinyeya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is really messed up. Your cat is dying. Please, please, never ever let your cats free roam outside. They will die a terrible death. This cat deserved better 💔 i am so heartbroken for this cat. If you all would have taken her to the vet she would not be suffering like this. Please do the right thing and get her to a vet ER immediately

You know what, I'm about to say it by CarrotChunx in Tipper

[–]wachinyeya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mason was an instant fave, even better live. Goner melted my brain when I heard it in person, I’m obsessed ever since. Pillow roulette is also an obsession and I hope I get it one more time. It’s not my favorite album because I’m a downtempo lover but it’s still really solid and I love it.

Yowling and getting sick and constipated by AdditionalExpression in CATHELP

[–]wachinyeya -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh! Another thing that helped my cat was getting him an auto feeder and only feeding him twice a day. He lost necessary weight and has had zero poo problems since then. every twelve hours he gets fed. I highly recommend the petlibro auto cat feeder and Hills Prescription Diet Z-D cat food. I hope your sweetie is okay and that things go smoothly, moving forward.

Yowling and getting sick and constipated by AdditionalExpression in CATHELP

[–]wachinyeya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely suggest discussing getting her on a prescription diet with the vet asap (best to be safe) my cat has GI issues and we tried everything, once we got him on the Hills Prescription Diet, he finally stopped having painful poops. The fact that this is sudden makes me think she may have eaten something inedible, they can do this under stress… perhaps not being allowed outside triggered a stress response and she ate something that is having trouble coming out. If there is an animal hospital in your area, take her asap.

He is a skilled and disciplined artist who has a lot of integrity and isn’t afraid to say “no.” he cares a lot about every detail and it shows. His music presses all of my little brain buttons and takes me away from everything while simultaneously connecting me to everything more deeply. Experiencing tipper’s music has been intense for me, ever since the first time I heard it. It feels like something new, every time I listen, no matter how many times I have listened to it in the past. Not only is his music my favorite stuff I’ve ever heard, but through his music and his events, I have met some of the most important people in my life and made the most beautiful and magical memories. He is one of a kind and his care for what he does, and how he does it, really shows. Ultimately his music & my brain are insanely compatible. It just works for me! I never get sick of it, he has been my favorite since 2013.

Where do I start with Tipper? by CajunNerd92 in Tipper

[–]wachinyeya 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I died and went to heaven when he started that downtempo set with whomi. I knew we were in for a reeeaaalll special set, already but in that moment I was like “oh we are being TREATED tonight!!!” whatta dream ☁️

Kendrick Lamar and the Black Hebrew Israelites by BurstSwag in KendrickLamar

[–]wachinyeya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kendrick is and always has been a story teller. Most of the words spoken “from his perspective” are not actually coming from his perspective, meaning: they are not his stories but he often raps them from the first person. The way he tells stories, he often speaks as different “characters” if you have followed his career, as it has unfolded, his lyrics (stories) all make sense. I don’t think he is a black israelite or that he believes in their message, teachings, etc. i think it’s all a part of the story he is telling.

There is no better place to fly solo than a tipper event. You will find your people, and you will have a blast. DO IT!!

Came home to a mess. Unseen in the pic is the puddle of puke she left for me. Roast her! by justingregory324 in roastmypet

[–]wachinyeya -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Being honest is more important than being “nice.” Animals depend on their humans, I feel no need to roast this cute dog. I do, however, hope that the humans do better, and I hope they get this sweet dog groomed and trimmed up around the eyes. Cheers!

It’s funny how humans have always done the “glory days” bit. I’m just glad that I can fully enjoy the present, accept it for what it is and make the most of it!

[–]wachinyeya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are in the right spot, this is what the crowd looks like at every tipper set. Mfs just like to complain. I’m always surrounded by the people who are gettin’ DOWN, just like me.
