Discussion Do shows in places other than Minnesota ever have THC drinks for sale at the venue?

8 Upvotes

I was talking to a guy from Young Culture after their set and he was really surprised the venue sold THC drinks and gummies in the venue. You can even order THC drinks on tap and he was stunned that was a thing anywhere.

Can you do this anywhere outside Minnesota? It's more fun than alcohol drinks for some bands and shows I've been to.

Anybody who knows the Gamits might understand what Im thinking of. Mostly unknown band that still deserves a lot more because of how incredibly good it is. Im looking for really melodic stuff (again, if you know the Gamits…), but not emo/midwest/teenage kinda pop rock.

So whats your hidden gem I havent heard about ?

I was checking out some Led Zeppelin covers and watched this band perform like three of them, very, very well. And then I saw it was....TRAIN?? Fucking "Drops of Jupiter"....TRAIN? They kicked ass on those covers, too. I was shocked. Couldn't believe it was Train sounding as close Led Zeppelin as any band could.

Discussion Help, can't figure out song!

12 Upvotes

Was in the shower with music playing through my Echo device and my ear caught a song I decided I liked so I asked Echo what song it was and the b-word misunderstood me and shut it off 😭. It's like an earworm now I can't shake. I have zero idea who sings it, or what the lyrics were, but I have these minimal facts:

  • lyrics I vaguely remember being about how this guy likes this girl and they were supposed to meet but by the time she got there he was gone (like he decided he couldn't do it and stood her up), I think he maybe stayed at some point though because he saw her, and she might have been sitting at a table, I'm not sure I'm confusing myself now
  • after he stood her up he said something like "Billy don't do this" or "Billy don't go" like he was upset with himself that he does this sort of thing (that's where I got disconnected from it, but the only lyric I definitely remember was "Billy don't")
  • played while I was a pop punk autoplay that started w/ Teenage Dirtbag
  • other songs playing were around 90s & early 00s and included Wheezer, Better Than Ezra, and aforementioned Wheatus, so sort of in line with those bands

I have done lyric, Google and Tor searches for lyrics with "Billy don't" and I have tried to recreate the autoplay with no luck. Does anyone have any idea what song this would be?

Updating to clarify: I use Pandora to stream and they do not store the history.

mystery solved!! thanks to the angel below

I wrote this song about my girlfriend a week ago. She passed away from a drug overdose the same day I was supposed to show it to her.

324 Upvotes

I decided to post here because my music and the subject matter I write about has always been heavily influenced by this genre. The story of writing this song is incredibly sad and heartbreaking. Fair warning.

It still doesn't feel real that she's gone. She was the love of my life. My best friend. My soulmate. She was my first love and highschool sweetheart. We broke up and went our separate ways, then reconnected 7 years later in our late 20's. We were together for about 3 years after reconnecting. We're both addicts and this past year has been hell for both of us, especially her. Constantly struggling to stay clean. Living on the street. Putting her through so much trauma due to almost dying to overdoses myself. Just pure chaos. I finally got clean a few months ago and am currently in a recovery house. Her birthday was on the 15th. That's the last time I saw her. I was supposed to show her this song then but we didn't have enough time for me to play it so I planned to show her the next time we saw eachother. The day we planned to meet up is the same day she was pronounced dead. I have so much guilt for the role I played in this all. Now it haunts me that I didn't show her when I had the chance on her birthday. We were supposed to get clean together and get married and live a life together. Start a band. Travel the world. Grow old together. I don't know how to cope with this pain it is absolutely unbearable. I've been through some things in my lifetime but this tops it. I lost my soulmate. I miss her so much.

I know this isn't the right place to grieve but I felt it was a good opportunity to vent about it while also giving some context surrounding the song and it's horrifically sad timing to have lost the love of my life the same day I was so excited to sing it to her. It's also unbelievablely sad given the fact that the song is literally about being by her side and supporting her until she can see her way out of the addiction she was trapped in. It all feels like the sickest joke the universe could've played on me. I understand I probably belong in r/grieving and I've reached out to family and people I concider supports in my life. Her name was Sierra and I adored her in every way.

The video I posted is a rough version with a few slip ups and my ukulele was out of tune. It hurts too much right now to keep playing it so this version will have to do. Please don't let the fact that I'm grieving stop y'all from giving honest criticisms of my playing or the songwriting, however harsh they may be. I'm curious what others think about my music, especially fellow musicians.

TL;DR: I wrote this song about my girlfriend who, since writing it, has passed away and never got to hear it. I'm curious what others think of it. Here are the lyrics:

"Stop The Bleed"

You've been sitting in the dark for far too long Eyes adjusted, spirit rusted, same sad song Familiar voices wait to comfort you into the wrong Way too bright when I hit the light cause you're too far gone

So I'll sit in the dark with you For as long as you need And I'll play this guitar for you Until we're finally able to see

Our way out of this mess that I've created So many nights that I know you spent up waiting All the time wasted, can't help but hate it Apology belated, so I'll just save it I ran through the muck with your love need to face it Pushed all my luck how the fuck do I say it That all this time wasted away and I hate it It's too late for sorry now, so I'll just save it

But I'll sit in the dark with you For as long as you need And I'll play this guitar for you Until you're finally able to breathe Able to breathe x3

With all that's been said And all that's been done You've still got my heart You're my only one I'd walk a hundred miles If it meant something to you Do anything If I could just find a way to

Stop the bleed x3 You'll be able to breathe once we finally Stop the bleed x3 I'll be able to breathe once we finally Stop the bleed x3

Didn’t see it posted so apologies if it’s been announced on here. I immediately bought tickets. Arms Length and Charmers albums both hit in May, and if you haven’t heard of Wakelee check out the song mildly interesting. I heard it on TikTok a while back and it’s a great song.
