GDT: G79: Blues @ Wild - Showdown at Dusk! (7pm CDT)

[Sweetnut]

That was a hell of a pass. Time to close the gate now

 

[NHL1674]

What happened to the bus?

Defense is out to lunch

 

[MNNumbers]

Kap still getting regular shifts?

 

[NHL1674]

Defense is out to lunch

Which is why it won't matter one bit who we have in net if they can't get it together.

 

[Southern Minny]

Geez Moose, 2 trips to the sin bin tonight!!

 

[Roman Maroni]

I think the Wild use Walz to determine how long Kaprizov shift length is. “Well Walz just took 2 minutes to explain that in one breath. Kap can match that!” You just know that’s what Evason is thinking….

 

[Sweetnut]

Would have been nice to get 3 SH goals in 2 box plays

 

[Southern Minny]

2-2 down in Tampa

 

[Sweetnut]

Did Johansson got hurt on that penaltykill or what happened?

 

[MNNumbers]

Great. Gophers turtle, and Q scores with EA to tie the game. Wild are turtling now. Why!?!?!!?

 

[Sweetnut]

Nyqvist has had some really great defensive plays

 

[Soldier13Fox]

The OG Swede, bacon!

 

[Southern Minny]

Great. Gophers turtle, and Q scores with EA to tie the game. Wild are turtling now. Why!?!?!!?

When Q scored they had out shot Gophers 14-1, go win the game, don't try and hang on, and you wonder how they tied it.

 

[Sweetnut]

Good to see Bacon put an end to it

 

[MNNumbers]

Brodin!!

For anyone who has not seen a concert at Us Bank. Do not go unless it's top band of yours. Just awful. Two of my favorites are Pearl Jam and Foo Fighters. I was planning on skipping Foo's concert last summer, unfortunately it got cancelled. I not sure there is anyone other than Pearl Jam that I would attend a show there.

Speaking of which, sounds like a pair of Pearl Jam concerts over Labor Day weekend, would guess Xcel but all the hints from PJ have been Minneapolis. Could end up being one. Sounds like announcement is Monday. If your interested in tickets easiest way to get them is through ten club. Have to be a member before the announcement.

Go Gophers, Go Wild Ski-U-Mah

The sound was much better than I was expecting. In fact I’d call it on par with other large venues I’ve been to. The only real issue I had was Chad Smiths hi-hats didn’t come through well and that may be intentional from the sound booth for this specific venue.

As I said before... Good sound engineers can really make things work well.
That's why it's so jeckle and hyde, not all sound engineers know how to do things properly for challenging sound situations.

To a certain extent, yes, but there are some venues that have wonderful acoustics , others that are a nightmare.

I chose seats directly in front of the stage hoping to avoid some of the echo. That is probably better than the sides or upper deck

I was only able to get upper deck for Metallica in 2016

I agree, but the naturally good acoustic venues leave little for sound engineers to do. A venue like US Bank Stadium has proven it CAN sound very good with the right work... whereas the metrodome NOBODY could make it sound good at all.

I’ve seen Metallica twice and I thought they were pure shit both times. Might have something to do with Lars literally being the worst mainstream rock drummer of all time and a huge douchebag also lol. I want to go see PanterA with Zach and Charlie filling in so bad but I’m never paying to see Metallica again even though I love James and Kirk as writers and musicians.

Couldn't disagree more, but whatever.

Best concert I ever went to was Metallica in 2000 at the Target Center. They had a 360 degree stage, I was 2nd row on the backside of the stage, when when they came out on stage, I was just out of reach of getting a high 5 from Newsted. They played for more than 4 glorious hours!

It was the first of 3 consecutive nights they played there on the last stop of their tour.
