I used to. I think Tool was the last band i listened to like that. After streaming became i thing, i literally go outta my way not to hear the same artist 2 songs in a row

Pay it Forwards are something that could be problematic during 1 July. If someone who is participating has a PIF that’s an issue. If somebody who isn’t participating gets it then no problem. That’s something we may want to address prior. :thinking:

I’m also worried about any BST’s that might come in, but that’s part of the challenge, the little devil on your shoulder.

If you haven’t yet, give King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard a go. They have a ton of albums that are all quite well thought out in my opinion. I would say either start with I’m in Your Mind Fuzz (garagey surfy psych) or just pick the art you like best and if you hate it try another one. They have a lot of variety and sound pretty different album-to-album.

Excellent! Wish I could make it to any of the shows this year but it’s not in the cards at the moment. I saw them 4 times previously and being a KGLW fan got me into a bunch of tangential bands as well. Also vinyl, and eventually I got into tapes too but that’s also partially from being into music/audio equipment in general.

Unfortunately my VHS machine is down lol

I predict that in July, every single participant’s grail throw is going to be posted for a reasonable price, in exactly the colorway they want and in excellent condition POSSIBLY, even MIB (provided the particular throw comes in a box).

Have fun with that nightmare fuel

I kind of think of my involvement in protos as a job, in a way.

Does it count as failure if I have to throw a different yoyo for work? :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Interesting question. Will we shut down G2 for a whole month? People will be hunting us with pitchforks before the first week is out.

What’s shutting g2 down though?

If Mr. Jake takes on the ONE July challenge, he won’t be able to do his 5th Mission and get yoyos ready for the whole month.
