This is the issue more than anything and I’m not immune to it either. My wife and I are millennials and we spend money on things our parents would not have dared of dream of spending at our ages (and still don’t), and we are still more frugal/responsible than most of our peers.

Geaux Tigers, don’t keep me up too late.

Saw a notice at one store for French Market Coffee citing the tariffs.


Tariffs on coffee have to be about the dumbest thing imaginable. That’s not something we are producing domestically in any significant quantity, let alone quality.

Arabi Food Store on Friscoville in Arabi across from the old Arabi Elementary School. Just about any po-boy is good and they make a damn good muffaletta too.


Great spot but I haven’t been over 10 years. Hope they still make that seafood muffaletta.
The metrics dorks are out of control. What a disgrace.

Roasty and crisp. Grabbed a few things from this brewery in Houston last weekend and everything has been great so far. Should have bought more.

:cheers:
Saw them a week ago in Nola and I thought it was the best they’ve ever sounded and I’ve seen them a bunch.

Waxahatchee is a great opener too.

I have man crush on Josh Hart dating back to his Pels days.

Was just enjoying WBRH this past Saturday.


WBRH on Saturdays is great pretty much all day.

How many baws here still listen to the regular ole free radio these days?



All the time. Mainly independent music stations like KLSU or WBRH in Baton Rouge or WWOZ in New Orleans.

99% of the time I'm listening to music it's from a streaming service where I can pick what I want to hear.



I do this plenty, but it's nice to broaden your horizons and hear things that aren't on your radar. Even if they play something you familiar with and already enjoy, there is something nice about the surprise/randomness of it. I also enjoy the communal feeling that listening to something live and over the airwaves gives me, however silly that may be.

If I have to listen to the radio I'm annoyed by all the constant commercials and will gladly pay for spotify premium.



I don't have this issue with the type of listener-supported stations I generally tune into. But you're right in general, the commercials are awful, especially the car ones.

Father John Misty and Tyler Childers put on great shows

re: Going to concerts is overrated

I’ve never regretted spending money on a concert. Sporting events on the other hand…
Book one of the premium lots nearby in advance. Very much worth it.

I’d feel a lot better if they would show their math instead of ‘just trust us.’ Surely the Trump team has ran the numbers and have some idea of what the end game is.


They basically showed us their math in how they calculated the reciprocal tariffs and it was a complete joke. I have no confidence after that.

Sounded good for such a large stadium venue.



One of the best sounding shows I've seen at that venue. Either that or Rogers Waters.

The visuals were great too. He could do well at a place like the Sphere.
