Nice! Yeah some of the musicians can be really down to earth, cool people.

That's a good amount of shows to go to a year. I stopped going so much due to being so busy with shit.

 

At my age I never know when the bands I dig will stop touring, even before the current status of the world. I suspect quite a few won't want to risk it any longer as well.

 

Haha nice!

 

So true... I think that is a high possibility that some bands will call it quits.

 

Most of the newer generation aren’t going to 3 day rick festivals. It’s all Bonnaroo (I have no chance of spelling that right), Coachella, SXSW, etc. those are bit festivals with a huge crowd (usually....obviously this year, whatever). If anything they’re growing while the others are shrinking. Just the culture shift. The younger generation doesn’t listen to as much metal and the older generation isn’t sleeping in a tent in the mud for 3 days.

 

Morning, humanoids.

 

The festivals are happening, just different music. Levitate pre 2020 was a growing festival right in Mass.

 

So who among you brines your Turkey? I've done it on and off for a few years now, and since we're not hosting this year I don't have to impress anybody but the GF so I'm thinking about mixing up the recipe a bit. I usually just use my standard brine (1/4 cup salt, 1 cup brown sugar, 8 cups of water) and then rinse and herbify the bird (rosemary, thyme, etc, the usual "poultry seasoning" stuff) before I bake it.
Anybody have anything different that they use? Deep frying is out of the question, FYI.

 

I'll be doing my first brine this year, actually.

You could try smoking it. I would smoke it if it was just me, but the inlaws aren't a fan.

 

Echoes is awesome. I'm actually listening to Meddle at work right now lol. And I'm 26. I've had these Floyd albums since 6th grade.

The solo was too ordinary.

Walk is great, but soooo overplayed. The Great Southern Trend Kill is one of my absolute favorites.

I wish I could've seen Dime play. What a tragic and senseless loss

 

My GF brought home a turkey last night. Something had nicked the bag and it thawed a bit between her getting it and getting it home. That sumbitch leaked everywhere!

On a positive note, the dogs had their fill of licking up salty turkey brine blood!

 

Well I finally ordered the HP tuner MPVI2 so i can get rid of the pesky check engine light lol

 

Coffee and plants. Morning everybody.

 

not even sure what im looking at but pretty cool. my cousin has a salt water aquarium

 

Yeah, neither is the GF, unfortunately

 

Fish tank with plants, minus fish.

They'll be included in another two weeks or so.

 

Nice looking setup.

My tank. Video is about two years old but its the best shot I have of it.

Beautiful fish

 

It's just us this year so we're doing a Turducken!

That's pretty neat!
