2·9 days agoI also thought that until I lost my pair of very nice Costa Mesas. Luckily I didn’t pay anywhere close to retail, but still, losing a $50 pair fucking hurt.
In my city we had a huge tunnel project a few years ago. The giant boring machine hit a pipe and broke, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in delays. Turns out it was one of the pipes that they had drilled into the ground to check soil conditions for the tunnel. Their own goddamn pipe, they just forgot it was still down there.
Unfortunately I’m on the other side of the country. I’ve got tickets to see them in my city, but it’s at a shit venue.
Tossup between Streetlight Manifesto and Propagandhi.
Streetlight I’ve probably seen 9 or 10 times. Every single one is one of the best shows I’ve ever been to. Their live shows are the perfect mix of energy and technicality. They are just as precise as their studio albums, but adding the intensity of live music and a venue completely packed with people who are super into it.
Propagandhi I’ve only seen once, but it was fucking intense. Every song was balls-to-the-wall power. I got kicked in the teeth so fucking hard I thought I lost one, but didn’t care. I was supposed to see them again last year, but the frontman got Covid the night before the show. I was supposed to see them in a couple weeks, but they canceled their American tour on account of all the Nazi shit happening here. Now I’m seriously thinking about paying an exorbitant amount of money to go see them in Canada.
Mosh pits are surprisingly wholesome if you’re not familiar with them. To an outside observer it just looks like a bunch of aggro idiots beating each other up. To the people in the pit it’s an amazing shared experience of like-minded people, there to enjoy the same thing, having a great time and helping each other up when they fall. The right pit is a sea of positivity, community and endorphins.
