Except no tours in nashville anymore though, no?

From my understanding they are available on a limited basis through the Custom Shop.

Me neither, but the other options in the category are worse.  The Cayenne Turbo even is underwhelming.  Thought I wanted one of those until I drove my bosses for a few days.  The BMW X5M is a turd, the X6M somehow is made of unobtanium and I am sure is a mechanical nightmare.  Leaves the Trackhawk as the only non-Escalade option.  I am at a segue where I either need to drop $10k on my truck or get something new....and I've never been one to part ways with my money so easily.

I'm assuming we are looking used. I see a decent amount here and the prices are a lot lower than expected.

Made it to Memphis. Currently chowing some BBQ!

Hope you did some pawnshop browsing too. Lots of broke musicians there.

Covered Bush and Live this past Friday. For those who haven't seen https://www.rocketsports-ent.com/a-25-year-flashback-with-live-bush/

It was a blast to cover them again. Bush always puts on a great set.

No rummaging this trip. Drove Annikya’s car here and flying home. Only have a carry on bag. 

...Unless I see something really obscure.

A guitar is a carryon.  Still can have a laptop bag as well.

I have traveled with a few.  If they look at you and say check it just tell them it is a $15k gibson or whatever brand it is and they will tell you to carry on

Had to put in my 2 week notice today.

 

Already feeling better and worse.

That's the kind of high you don't ever come back down from.

Like Sean said. They will take it without a problem. Hell usually they will put it in their coat closet if you are nice about it.

I'll be ok.

 

I know how to put in 90 hour work weeks.  I'll figure something out.

Speaking of work being a shit situation...  Really not liking work lately.

A lot of bad decisions being made by people who have never done the job and have no clue about how to do it.

really getting burnt out lately.

most days really only show up to support my coworkers and that's it.

 

Starting a couple weeks off tomorrow and really looking forward to it.

Always put it in the closet for me...being platinum probably helps that though.

Working on it.  I keep walking into huge brick walls.

 

I'm very frustrated and I keep looking at how I can change to fit in and I just cannot.  I have to go.

Should.  Spending it at a cottage on the bay of fundy with it's own private beach.  Relaxation and family time.  Lots of wilderness exploring with the kiddos.  Just good old mother nature, no alarm clocks or time schedules.

[///M5 2,833]

Should be BEAUTIFUL this time of year!

Managed a set of 8 reps with 85 lb dumbells on seated overhead dumbell press this morning.  Felt great.

Normally just stick with sets of 5, but wanted to push my first working set to see.

At only being 195 lbs body weight I feel it was a good push.

That sounds very heavy.  I've been >250 since I was about 14 so imaging that weight pushing that much is crazy.

 

I struggle with dumbell seated, and only overhead or military pressed until recently.  What kind of form do you have for your pressing?  Arnold or no rotation at all etc..?
