Is there much of a wedding industry here?

I became an ordained minister through Universal Life Church in 2014. I have performed 5 wedding ceremonies in the time since for family, friends, and acquaintances. Each one unique and non-traditional, I have created very personal and eloquent scripts that have received very good feedback. And I don’t use ChatGPT or any other LLM/AI anything. Anyway, let me know what you know about the wedding stuff around here. Thank you!

Anyone around for the PDX 90’s underground punk scene?

I played in a band called Gimmick. We played with so many great band at venues like Thee O, Stage 4, The Paris Theater. Share your memories if you were around then.

I found the negatives!!!

This is a fucking trip. November 18, 1997. Stage 4 in Portland Oregon. Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes tour. I’ll work on getting these scanned and post all of them I guess. Even the out of focus, they’re all going up here. A little time capsule for you all.

A Re-imagining of Matchbook by Strung Out

It took me a long time to get this all in one take and the second verse got away from me for a second but I’m proud of the rearrangement I was able to figure by double timing the root notes while half timing the lead guitar part. Gentle criticisms please. Thanks for listening.

Can someone please comment on the mixing/mastering of my song?

I recorded this using GarageBand, programmed the drums using the SoCal kit, programmed the strings on the Romantic quartet, played live guitar and bass. Used an old Yamaha mixing board for my vocal condenser mic for vocals.
I tried using a lot of compression on each track, bumping up the ratio to 30:1, attack at 70-120ms. How does the mix sound?
