1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I was surprised when I went to a Killswitch Engage concert and saw so many older guys there with Killswitch or Metallica shirts. Didn't think they had a crossover like that but it was cool that they did. One of the opening acts outshone them, Toothgrinder. It was like a good old fashioned loud grunge metal concert like you'd find in the mid to late 90s.

 

i'll get em tomorrow. im not going back outside. lol

 

Yeah, I know. Seriously, as you get older and start hearing about stars passing on whose work you've loved be it music, acting, whatever - you start to realize how quick time passes by.

Last time I saw the stones was there Bridges to Babylon tour in 97. Watching Mick Jagger do his thing running around that stage at the age 53 for that entire concert, damn more energy than I've ever had. lol. Glad I saw them, wasn't going to - not really my thing, they were a little bit before my time but a good friend insisted I go.

 

you did?

 

YES!!!!!

 

Lol

i sent him photo proof i havnt gotten his texts!


also he wanted to setup a play date. but sadly i work

 

Just looked them up and didn't ring a bell but checked out some of there stuff and yeah - definitely a cool sound. I'd go see them!

 

I was going to take to a steak lunch as well. Your job sucks lol

 

Well shitt. steak? theres a little local joint out in hammond that is fucking amazing. theyve been there since the 40s or 50s i believe. BEST STEAK EVER

 

Want to call in now lol

 

I was bummed, I was going to drive to Santa Cruz to see Toothgrinder and Polyphia. Such a weird combination, ones like super experimtenal melodic guitar with no vocals and the other is loud grunge. Would have been perfect. Ended up cancelling that show.

 

So, toyota totally ruined my struts, they seemed to have lost pieces to the top hat after the frame swap.

I need to do two things;

I need new coil springs
I need new top hats.

I want to match the rear so its not stink bug stance, the rear has new shackles and new oem leafs, is pretty perky. Its slightly higher than my bilsteins on the 2/4th setting.

What springs should I get to match the new leafs in the back so the front is even with the rear, if not slightly higher than the rear.

Do I go oem springs and adjust my shocks up 1 more notch?

 

Also wanted to tell you, I ended up cleaning out that harness really well and it seemed to fix everything.

 

Polyphia reminds me of the great Satriani

Toothgrinder - yeah, not sure about them. totally agree, WEIRD COMBO.

 

Why don't you go back to them and make them fix it since they ruined it?

 

This happened before I went on vacation, I also signed a paper for the lights that apparently is a release for everything. Its not the end of the world. But I do need to fix it.

 

Looks like it was built just to pose it on the dirt then wisk it away back to urban safety

I'm all for taking care of your rig, I wash mine after every trip and touch it up once in awhile but damn...that thing looks like it was built in '04 and still has under 5k neighborhood miles on it.

tldr- don't mind me I'm just jealous

 

kind of there, well somewhat... you do have the RTT and the snorkel
