    I worked there during college. I’ve always thought their wings were about as straightforward and terrific as you can find. 

    Outside of their steaks, most of their food is still damned good in my opinion. Hell, their prime rib is still just fine too. 

    When I worked at OB, my favorite food hack was getting the dirty Mac.

    My favorite though was the Queensland c&s. Not the best quality wise but rich and hit the right notes.

    This would be absolutely glorious. I feel for Florida fans because their administration is filled with morons, but this would make me excited to see. 

    Doesn't like recruiting 

    Doesn't like to smiley glad hand with donors 

    He's checked out 

    What a time to be alive. 

    But in all honesty, I think Florida will make a run at Dan Lanning, and they might be able to pull it off. 

    Make a run for Lanning. End up with Jedd.

    Hey, it's a great little TexMex joint.  Better than the chain, actually.

    Well if John madden liked it.... that's good enough for me. 

    Begs the question. How did he end up in Van Horn?

    That's not the Chuy's chain.  That's just a random mom 'n pop.  (John Madden approved.)

    You just ruined my entire childhood. Jerk.

  5. Alright... thinking about going down this vinyl road.  For a player,  any prime deals that I should jump at? I played them as a kid in 80s. Haven't dabbled since. I don't have a stereo.

    I still can't believe that we dedicate entire separate threads to recent commits, and don't talk about them at all in there. Just post the same random pictures over and over. 

    The problem with those commitment threads is that the gatekeepers won't allow critical discussion about that player and it becomes a celebration thread. If you were allowed to comment about how shitty someone is there,  maybe we wouldn't be so surprised when he turns out to be shitty when he is here.

  7. I'm a big Jerry Cantrell fan. Wrote most of the AIC stuff,  sang in the later albums,  and has done some out of the box solo work. And his willie cover...

  8. Live in Phoenix currently and love it but wouldn't want to retire here unless I would be getting a summer place in the white mountains or flagstaff (which is the plan). It's hot as hell right now and I've learned to love that but it can be a little tiresome when you don't even want to leave the house. 

    Lived in Albuquerque, I don't recommend it unless you put yourself in a bubble. It's not terribly big but it's easy to get into some sketchy areas. The weather can and will take some crazy turns. Snow one day and 60s the next. Awesome but unpredictable t storms. I don't know how much the entertainment has improved since I was last there. Isotopes and UNM basketball were the only sports (maybe a minor league hockey or soccer).

    I think I'm gonna have to get my hands on some JB pickups.

     

     

    Good call. The addition of a battery and the lack of use of a tone knob turned me off of EMG's. The cleans are lacking. I can't put into words, it just doesn't sound like you would want it. The Fishmans have really stepped up from what I have heard and you can get a Heafy epiphone with coil splitting (among other guitars) but I personally haven't tinkered with them to get a real feel if they can play anything besides metal.

    Can anyone who loves active pickups, like EMGs or Fishmans, tell me why you like them? And they're an obvious choice more metal but do you use them for any other genre?

    I've had both the 81/85 and 81/60 EMG sets. 81/60 was far better IMO. Definitely can hear the differences. With that said,  I haven't cranked it in a live setting to know how it will sound and I prefer a seymour duncan JB (I don't have a JB in my neck of my LP, it's a 57 classic) passive set.

    I am a metal (classic, modern,  nu) player.

  11. I'm not a homemade tortilla guy but I'm on a big health kick and Siete Almond Flour tortillas are pretty close to the real thing and lower calories. They are kind of expensive in Sprouts or whole foods but a 20 pack at Costco is a lot more reasonable.

    this prompt is a bit of a brain twister, butch...if you said put out an album that was good and you listen to, it might be achievable but since there are so few "great albums" out there, I'm not sure how that works in your mind.

    hmm.

    I think the thought exercise comes from a place where you listened to bands and they started to suck and you say to yourself "I only listen their old shit now" and you are mentally over them and accept they are never the same band.  Then they hit on a album out of the blue and you absolutely are floored about the resurgence. 

    Bon jovi kind of did this during their "It's my life" era.

    We rarely eat at a restaurant twice on a trip. We ate twice at Ken’s. 

    One caveat,  if you can't get on the back patio, it is not the same experience if you are indoors. 

    Forgot to add The Hudson.

  14. They have plenty of shuttles to different view points at GC at south rim. Expect it to be really busy. 

    Park downtown flag and walk to the multiple breweries.  Cornish Pasty has a lot of Vegan options. Sedona I can't tell you too much about vegan but do book Elote if you can. Check for reservations today.  Creekside and hideaway house have great shady views. Dahl and DeLuca is good. Sedona brewing company has real nice patio views as well.
