Did they play a song named after your town because they have so many named after towns they do it at a lot of shows and did it at mine. I love TMBG but it's not something I can always put on due to it's nerdiness but it was genuinely one of the best performances I've seen just energetic and fun and amazing choices for the set list.

Yea they opened with the Asbury Park Stone Pony song, which is where I was seeing them. They didn't play my favorite big song of theirs (Ana Ng) but they played a ton of smaller ones that I adore plus one they hadn't played in like 20 years which was very nice.

I miss going to see local punk bands I'd never heard of play at dive bars, that's the group experience I miss the most.

Last movie I saw in the theater was Sonic the Hedgehog with my buddy right after he returned from the Philippines without his wife. His son is having some development issues and his wife's family offered to pay for speech and mobility therapy there. So he came back without his family, we saw Sonic and got a burger at this odd local sit down chain that used to send out 2 for 1 coupons for their $20 burgers.

Then both Canada and the Philippines went into shut down. So his son's therapy was cut short. Then his wife was trapped there for months, at the family estate, without most of her family, because island to island flights remained completely shut down. So he missed his kid's birthday and didnt see him for like three or four months.

I've never done a concert. Or any sort of a thing with a massive crowd. I was planning to go to my first big wrestling show ever. AEW in Boston in April.
sigh
I have also never done a concert or a wrestling show and was hoping to go to an AEW show this year assuming the rumors of a GTA show were true.

I am still hoping to meet many a wrestle goon whenever that happens though.

the last time i was in a theater it was to see miami connection at midnight. that was where i was coming home from late on the night of the skunk story. i saw jeff mangum do his in the aeroplane over the sea tour thing a few years ago where he was playing it in cathedrals and churches, which was cool. not really a live music fan. sorry for my bad posting ethos.

I watched Fincher's latest movie Mank and I think the moral of the film was alcoholism is good and makes you successful.

The moral of it is that Hollywood's long storied history of pissing on Orson Welles' grave is alive and well

my last theatrical film was Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, b/c that was the last time I had the time, the cash, the inclination, and someone to go with. it proved disappointing :smith:

my last live event in general was a WWE house show from a couple of years ago. that managed to fuckin rule, despite the fed’s best efforts

J-RU I can happily say that Pillars of Eternity 2 has finally stuck. I'm in there deep. I was so excited to find out I could name Islands if I discovered them and explored them completely. Also I spent a whole day just wandering around and talking to people on that 2nd big mountain city.

Another cool POE 2 update. I got a new ship and updated my main ship and changed its name. Then one day someone snuck a box inside my ship with a ghost inside of it. It talked to me and was like aw yeah awesome it's really you the captain of the defiance. Since I had changed the name of my ship the game gave me the option to be like Actually it's called The Pearl now. I love games like this!

One of the few downsides of the game is that I wish the ship stuff had been a bit more robust, particularly to give you more reasons to actually explore it more than once and use the time to chat to your crew and your party. The naval combat is also sadly fairly generic and never really changes once you establish how it works, so for the most part I just upgraded my ship and would just tank through an attack to board and have an in-game fight instead of the text based stuff.

when i was a young brash gamer i just usually tossed on the thermal goggles, tanked a hit, then tracked him via his footsteps until i ran his rear end down with the shotgun

now i enjoy the whole sniper vs sniper thing and do that instead. great game.

Getting all the camo and stuff in MGS3 sounds tempting to me, but then I shudder at the thought of shooting all those drat toy frogs, several of which are hidden during the rail shooter segment.

I just tried to make a deal with a pirate lord but then she was like bruh you killed one of my captains. I killed this lady when she rammed my ship like 10 hours ago. I love how much stuff this game tracks. It really feels like you're in a world that is alive.

I killed that dude too but was still able to make a deal with her, I can't remember if I had to find stuff to make her okay with it all or if it was just a matter of running through diplomacy checks (I was playing an Old Vailian Deathlike Artist) but we ended up being on really good terms. Endgame spoiler then I used her to steal a ghost ship, abandoned her to wait with a giant fleet of pirates thinking I was going to lead them to untold treasure while I helped out the native population instead, and she tracked me all the way down through a super-storm to throw down. It absolutely ruled.

On break and been playing Cyberpunk but not all the time.

Whenever I am not playing, I feel like I’m just days away from the game getting substantially better in one way or another. Weird feeling.

I should just go back to Valhalla until it’s fixed but I like walking up to people and shotgunning them in the face. I am the cyber punk, 2077.
