I missed 2015 and 2017. 2015 because my daughter was just born and last year because I was so bummed about the mis-information. Definitely going this year.

Actually yes! I was driving back to Bellingham and lost service after their first song. It was enough for me to want to follow up with it though and I love it! I heard the DJ say it was uploaded as a live video too but I haven't checked that yet. Nice! I heard the end and really dug it but haven’t had a chance to dive in deeper yet. Wasn’t sure if you heard it too, or if there was some serious Baader-Meinhof phenomenon going on I watched the full live keep performance and have pretty much only been listening to this album since my drunken posting rampage. So rad

I thought it was cool enough but it was too damn long (s/t). Haha what? 45 minutes isn't that long. Lol I had to check if that was right. I guess it felt long? Haha. You are right 45 minutes is not long. I was listening to it while brewing so maybe time was moving slow for me. I retract my complaint

Swedish Death Candy is hitting all the right spots. First time blasting in good headphones and I am a little drunk. CHOPS Did you hear their live session on KEXP yesterday? Actually yes! I was driving back to Bellingham and lost service after their first song. It was enough for me to want to follow up with it though and I love it! I heard the DJ say it was uploaded as a live video too but I haven't checked that yet.

Slowdive and M83 shouldn't be compared. That being said, I have only heard one Slowdive album. I thought it was cool enough but it was too damn long (s/t). I need to hear their past records still but I already know this is a set that cannot be missed. PS I am not hating on M83. I love M83. Just totally different. Well yeah but they both fall into the shoegaze genre. Definitely listen to their older stuff though. Souvlaki is one of the best shoegaze albums ever created. I will! I am super stoked to hear it. Old M83 is so different from new M83. I guess I should keep my Slowdive judgements to myself until I hear explore the past. Not negative judgments or anything but I shouldn't pigeonhole anyone on one record. I am going to buy Souvlaki in the coming weeks.

That moment when you scour the boards commenting on various threads and nobody else has posted anything and you know it is time to log off haha

I was wrong about that Aslan Depot being where the Copper Hog was. It is across the street. The Copper Hog is actually re-opened now. Haven't been yet though.
Block 15 is finally in town at the station. Had Sticky Hands and Monster Cookies IPAs there this weekend. Also have some delicious big dark beers on. That Chuckanut Doppelbock is delish, too.

daaaaaaaaaaaamn did you see the new Aslan barrel project spot? They're calling it Aslan Depot. Pretty sure it is where Copper Hog used to be. Can't wait to go check that out. www.aslandepot.com/That looks pretty classy. What is the main Aslan like? It's the only brewery in Bellingham I haven't been to. Have always been turned off because it looks like more of an overpriced restaurant than a brewery. I usually stick to Wander/Structures/Gruff in bham Aslan was opened by a pretty young guy that clearly had a lot of money. In the beginning they were ripped by the Herald about their beer quality. I didn't have the same take as the Herald did but they were pretty inconsistent. They didn't really have much brewing experience when they started. BUT they had a great culture/atmosphere. The food is really good and the place is pretty cool. You can have dogs outside too (which is always a plus). They have since hired a brewer and their beer quality is really good in my opinion. I am not a fan of the beers that they can but I always find something I like when I go there. They are always putting on beers that are new too. Keeping you on your toes and always new things to try. I like them a lot. Not my go to place because it is a restaurant. When the weather is nice I go there more often because you can just sit outside and have a beer. I pretty much like all of the breweries in Bellingham. I haven't really had a great Gruff experience though. I like their outside portion it is like the only water view downtown haha.
