  1. Played a holiday concert last night at the Memorial Auditorium in Chattanooga. Kids came out to watch. Good night. So tired. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

  3. I'm so sorry to hear, guys. We know how tough it is to lose a loved one. *Hugs* Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  4. The Alan Wyatt Quartet. Jazz saxophone instructor at Lee University, where my classical saxophone teacher just retired from. Been wanting to see this dude blow for years. He doesn't disappoint. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  5. Sorry to hear about the hearing loss problem I had a temporary thing that impaired me for months, and slowly got back to ~normal. It was infuriating at the time. G'luck with it! There are some solid, cheaper darts out there that aren't bad. I"ve thrown some McCoys that I really liked. The Thrust in 25g is what I really liked, at least as a beginner, but different people take to different shapes. Great thing about those is that they're cheap enough to get a few different styles/weights and try them out, then you have darts for others to try as well, when you eventually start getting MVGs or Hammerheads.
  6. 1) Why would you have to stay away from music? 2) I think they're both going to be great boards, and they're each the official board of two major dart leagues (BDO/Winmau and PDC/Unicorn), but its seems like there was an issue with bounce outs and drop outs, but the Winmau Blade 5 is an improvement over the 4, which is already good, and it seems it caught up with the Unicorn on that front. Most of the good places around me have Blade 4s or 5s, so my thinking, if nothing else, was "go with what you'll be throwing on when you go out." The 5 has shallower angles on the blades as well, so if you hit the wire, there's a better chance of it going in vs bouncing out (relative to the Blade 4, and tons better than the wire-on-top-of-the-board kinds.) I'd just get whichever of the two you like the look of best, and if you want to go Winmau, you can get the Blade 5 DC (Dual Core), because more letters + more cash is better, right? The Blade 5 also has a nice leveling system to secure it to the wall. Some of the cheaper boards will rotate some as you're pulling darts out. A small feature, but nice. The higher end Unicorns either have something similar, or have it as an option. As far as darts, it's a very personal thing. Scroll through this thread and JP#s had some advice, along with my dart buying story from a few months back. Looking forward to seeing what you get!
  7. You're welcome. Spending other people's money is my calling. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  8. Might I recommend: https://www.playwiththebest.com/hd2-pro-edition-metal-number-ring.html Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  9. Just do it the HC way and buy a Winmau Blade 5 DC with matching surround and set up side by side lanes for comparison. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  10. Welcome back to the fold. I'm newer to the hobby as well so I don't have a lot of good advice. I did go to the local shop and throw 12 different dart shape/weight combos before settling Yana weight forward, slight teardrop 25 gr dart. Nice choice on the flight. Out of walls of flights that had to choose from at the shop, that is one of the two sets that I picked out as well, along with some dimpled Ruthless ones. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  11. Nice! I don't like the Unicorn stuff as much as the Winmau Blade 5 (I think it's due to me being colorblind and I perceive the red/green in a weird way,) but aesthetically, the number ring is my favorite in the game. You can also replace the numbers with different colored ones. Which darts are you throwing? Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  12. I need one of these. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  13. I'd be interested if someone had a code to share. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  14. Well, sounds like you need to make a package deal, or use your poor people Silca pump. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  15. You know that's right! I sent you a message on FB. Hit me up. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  16. Love it, Tom! Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  17. H8u so much. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  18. It's about time someone mentioned Queen B. Happy birthday, Slacker! Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  19. The best spaghetti carbonara I've ever had while at Il Primo for a Mensa dinner. I live less than a mile away and the first time I've been. Sad. Friend's mahi mahi, which was solid Butternut squash which I would have been delighted to have as a side (and many of you know my distaste of veggies.) Tiramassou Oh, did I mention it was wine night? There's one more Italian place to visit in town, but this one was my fav so far. I love that Chattanooga is getting some quality restaurants. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  20. Just buy a custom gaming PC and 34" widescreen 100hz G-SYNC monitor like Jeff. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  21. So jealous. H8u. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  22. Probably thinking of the fried pickles. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  23. Had lunch with a crotchety old white guy. Always fun to see Dan in the wild. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
  24. Those were (are?) friends of a buddy of mine, so I remember when that happened. It was awful; but I bet that cage builder they used gets tons of business for being amazing. IIRC, didn't the family try to get people to take it down off the internet? I know it should still be floating around somewhere, but I think some of the original postings were pulled. **BRENT**
