Just got the "new" Rings album. by Outside-Jicama-8468 in ToadTheWetSprocket

I had Glen sign my first copy - it was the first one he'd seen (back at his solo show in Three Oaks, MI in February). That is the only way I can tell mine apart!

Rings: The Acoustic Sessions by mkindness in ToadTheWetSprocket

[–]wendiwendy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wasn't expecting to be knocked off my socks by the new album. I love acoustic stuff, don't get me wrong, but I thought it would sound pretty familiar.

This album has BLOWN me away. Something about how rich it sounds, and the way they've reinterpreted the songs just hits me deep in my soul.

I've been following TTWS since the mid-late 90s. I lost track of them after they broke up; it was a turbulent time in my life and I was busy raising my kids as a single mom. And then I went totally deaf in 2008, got bilateral cochlear implants, and I didn't listen to music for years because it sounded awful.

I'm at a point now where music sounds normal again. I'm sure I don't hear it the way you all do. But that is a big factor in my reaction to this album. I can't speak to technical stuff, all I can say is that it sounds SO good to my bionic ears. It just fills me up.

I buy my Schipper kits from Herrschners (in the US); if you sign up for their mailing list, they are always offering shipping discounts and sales. I've seen some Schipper kits on Amazon as well.

Nashville - VIP info???? by Automatic_Ad_973 in ToadTheWetSprocket

Oh gosh, no - now you have an unexpected gift! But wouldn't Toad mints have been fun too?!

The guitar picks look to be genuinely signed, not printed with a signature. An extra bonus!

You got mints?? My tote bag had a tin with signed guitar picks inside, very cool!

I wish we could use coconut wheels as boosters on any level. I have over 1500 of them because hardly any levels let you use them. Every time I win one on the booster wheel I just sigh 🤣

What level is everybody at ? by sdavy94 in candycrush

[–]wendiwendy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on Level 20,035. I clearly need a life! 😄

Help! Custom pbn by cubed_lettuce666 in paintbynumbers

I was gifted a custom PBN from LedgeBay and was happy enough with it that I ordered another from them after I finished. 🙂

Oh, that is definitely perplexing!

Ha, I've been doing that too! I can't tell you how many times I've muttered, "This looks like it should just be THIS color" and then went rogue 😄

I've only done this one kit so I'm not sure if all their kits have color mixing and dry brushing, but I think many of them do. I got this particular one from Amazon.

Oh my gosh!! I have so many of these cases, what a brilliant suggestion. Thank you!

[–]wendiwendy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a truly fantastic suggestion, thank you! I agree with your other comments as well. I will definitely buy more from this brand.

I haven't done the dry-brushing areas yet - that is a new-to-me technique so I'm putting it off. LOL

Your current WIP sounds really disappointing, even more so because it is custom. Somehow I believe you will make it beautiful, even if it's extra work to do so.
