  1. I think not picketing would be the best option. What they did was vile, disgusting and hateful. Stooping to their level would be pathetic and cruel. It's about being better than them, not playing their game

     

     

    True, I guess I was thinking if it was the opposite of how they picket.  Showing signs of love instead of hate, you know what the Bible actually stands for...

  2. http://darklordday.com/

    Anyone else planning to attend?

    So what exactly is it? I mean I get you're going to get Dark Lord which is only available during this time, plus the opportunity to get a barrel aged version. But other than that and bands what else is it? Like do you get to sample their other things under the cost of the ticket or what? I've seen this for a few years but I'm always not fully understanding I guess.

  3. Hadn't heard of the "southern tier" before this thread, so my fault.

     

     

    Brucewillis.. you are right, I guess Vinyl Resting Place did close.  Mike usually goes around to local shows and runs a distro though, so all is not lost.

     

     

    Have to mention again how dope Darkside is.  Most likely worth the trip.

     

    I always considered "Southern Tier" to be Jamestown/Salamanca/Olean area...ie...the middle of nowhere.  Years ago there was a pretty cool record store in Cortland called Subculture, but I doubt they're still open.  I haven't been in that are in a long time.

  4. Hello VC, I am an idiot. I have 15 hours of community service to do somewhere before Monday in order to pass my sociology class. I do not have time for this as I work a day shift every day, not mentioning other classes that I have to do. If anyone lives in Cali in LA County or Orange County, and runs something that hires volunteers for community service, can someone help me out? I will volunteer for you or your organization for the 15 hours, but I need a time sheet signed before this Monday. OR if anyone else has any ideas. I'm pretty desperate. My financial aid depends on me passing, and if I fail then I won't be able to go to college next semester. I know I'm an idiot and should have done it earlier, but I just saw this hidden requirement in the syllabus last week. 

     

    Really its going to be you figuring out which is more important.  Getting a bigger paycheck or staying in college?  Sounds like College is more important so you're going to have to sacrifice not working your shifts, and do this instead once you find a place, because there's no way a place is going to sign off on a time sheet if you didn't actually do the work first.  Start calling now.  

  5. Ok

     

    P mount is ok if limited in choice now but there are one or two, one more question, does the arm pivot like normal or move along a track? Some of the Son'ys had a thing called a tangenital arm which means it in theory tracks better than a normal tonearm. It was used as a bit of a gimmick and is a bugger to set the weight on but if it has got one then it's a good step up from your AT

    Yeah from the looks of it, this table has a linear arm system, which a bit different from the traditional arm system.  I always say free is worth it, at least to try it out.  Here are some pics of it that I found on Audio Karma.  One issue they talked about with this specific one is that the tonearm its self has a motor/belt underneath it because of how it moves, and a few people talked about it not moving all the way to the end of the record.

    Is this what the player is looking like?

  6. That link is down for me, this worked https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/14006613/articulate-wallets-unique-stylish-leather-wallets

     

    It's a nice one as well, I'll have to keep it in mind. Looks to be about the same thickness as I have currently. But I like the elastic straps to hold your cards, they won't stretch out like leather pockets. 

     

    Also, kickstarting wallets seems to be a theme in the last couple years. 

     

    Yeah that's the one I'm currently using, but they just did a redesign(http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-articulate-wallet-2-0-a-minimalist-rfid-blocking-patent-pending-wallet), which I received but haven't started using.  But over all the quality is pretty nice, and at least for me when I backed it wasn't a very expensive wallet.  I really like slide window on the back of the wallet.  I just keep my id in there, and its quick and easy to get out.  Overall I like them

  7. Oh yeah, old ass thread for the win.

     

    I'm need of a new wallet, my Fossil leather one is stretched out, once I took a lot of the clutter out my cards fall out easily.

     

    I've been eyeing these for the past few days. http://dashwallets.com/shop/

     

    Specifically the 2.0 vertical, but the 3.0 looks pretty stellar so I may wait on it.

     

    Anybody ever use a dash, or have a buddy who does?

     

    I haven't used dash wallet, I know it was a Kickstarter, but I recently did get 2 different versions of http://www.articulatewallets.com/ and I really like them which was also a kickstarter/indiegogo.  I may have a discount code laying around that they sent me if you're interested.

  8. Ted's Hot Dogs (dogs, burgers, fries, milkshakes)

    Anderson's Frozen Custard (roast beef and ice cream)

    John and Mary's Submarines (subs and pizza)

    Duff's Famous Wings

    Anchor Bar (more wings)

    Jim's Steakout (subs again, amazing when drunk)

    Just Pizza (or really ANY pizza place in Buffalo)

    SPoT Coffee (for the hipsters)

    Tim Hortons (you probably want their coffee.)

    Mighty Taco (yummmm)

    Chef's (spaghetti)

    If you come to Buffalo, eat at any of these places and their food will blow your mind. There

     

     

     

    UGH!  You're making me miss Buffalo...so much to miss!
