Aug 11 Calgary

For the life of me I can't remember the title of the song here. I think I'm going braindead as I can't pull the words out.

The Pretty Reckless Concert lasr night

More at r/theprettyreckless .

Great show. Taylor and gang put on an energetic set of their new and old songs. Big crowd for the Grey Eagle event center but I still wish this would have been a second show and they kept the Palace bar as originally announced and I had tickets to. Anyone else go and enjoy it? I'm curious about the people who brought their toddlers to this.

Calgary Aug 11. A bunch of photos from the show.

Not all in absolutely great focus... because it's a phone 🤣 but i tried to. No enhancements done to these yet. Need to crop and color correct some. Maybe will post those later. I have some video but it's in 8K and 4K. I'll have to make them smaller to post to reddit.

Calgary Aug 11. A bit of audience participation and walk back to stage

Great show. This maybe a repost but I don't see the first one from after the concert. Good sound and the band played great. They used the whole stage to the benefit of those in the first few rows. Taylor sounded great and put on a good show. The ladies beside me gasped at her great legs and I agreed.😜 Lots of grooving and moving going on. I kept my phone mostly below eye level to take these to not bother people behind me except when I was behind the big guy who was 7 feet tall. Lol. VIP too. Shout out for him and his buds for letting some other kids and ladies take the barrier half way through. 🤘🎶

Tron Ares: Divergence 2lp for $44.42 on Amazon.ca

I purchased it not more than a few minutes ago. Local stores either did not have it or it was priced over $80cdn. I happened to be on Amazon for something else and checked my save for later list. The NIN store after shipping and customs was over $80 still. The NINoise LPs are a boot $65 cdn right now. Maybe I'll wait for the next Christmas sale.

The Bank of Montreal BMO credit rating app is unreadable to me

I would have had no clue except I put it into photoshop and color swapped 'green' on time with a darker blue and 'red' with yellow.

Best kitty card for a NIN birhday

I know it's probably a bit off topic but as soon as saw it, Closer played freely in the hole in my head.

Mixed feelings from fans, artists after country music festival pulls out of Calgary

It is too bad none of the local reporting is have read about this actually talked about how many tickets sold, maybe it didn't sell out or maybe something else in the supply.chain went wrong. Who knows maybe the liquor license got pulled or something similair. Blaming road construction is weak as spring is road busting time everywhere. Limited access by road was mentioned? Only one road has direct access since forever and that being 9th Ave. CTrain access is nearby. I've been to many festivals and events at Fort Calgary (aka the Confluence- sorry I hate the name) and never had parking or walking to it as an issue.

I wonder what kind of law suit will be brought to the city about the cancelation? Have lived downtown, I'm good with 12:30am cutoff on the loud music.

Badlands and Cowboys tents are not the essence of a sustainable or successful Stampede. I have crocodile tears for those who may not have to deaf listening to loud music til 3am.

Audio question - is there a way to setup using both a Bluetooth headphone and internal speaker?

My elderly parents have a 2025 65" model. So far they are enjoying it but can get overwhelmed by technology and menus. One issue is my father is fairly deaf in both ears. So he wants to wear his over the ears headphones so he can control his volume while my mother can listen normally. He finds his hearing aid over emphasizes background and music.

So far we have his headphone connected by Bluetooth and he gets good sound. But tv speaker is off. The TV appears to only allow one output. If we try a Bluetooth speaker and headphone at the same time, the TV prioritized the headphone and won't send to Bluetooth speaker even though it says connected.

We are trying to avoid using an external Bluetooth splitter as it adds an extra layer if complexity and still requires an extra headphone or speaker.

Any have this situation and been able to figure out a menu configuration? GOOGLE and AI hasn't been too helpful in keeping it simple.

A frustrating mini game. Ran out of time and essentially needed 14 to win

14 steps short. Ran out of time and couldn't get more farmland water. Unless I bought something over $35. This has happened many times but this was the closest to winning but lost. Sigh. I am currently at 99.99% and 86% watering (Canada). A few more weeks will get me my $16 credit, $80 in coupons, and a $32 auto opening garbage can.

Probably the cheapest Farmland ever. I've beat it probably 6 maybe 7 times and usually around $75 to $90 in product. My next one is preselected and 4 products that total around $90 to $100. Which of course is $2500 "regular" price, right? Crazy.

2 x 2 for 1 General Admins. Enjoy.

These are 2 x 2 for 1 passes. Reply to this post and say if they have been used. No guarantee that they will work as someone might grab one and not tell anyone. So order your tickets immediately. For the taking. Good until July 31, 2026. But I am sure they will be before then.

I got them from the current $30 gift card promo. AND no you can't get the popcorn code.
