@matigo Well, they definitely have their fair share of hearing loss, but the stages are often a lot quieter than people expect. And the musicians usually use in-ear monitoring systems that also reduce the ambient noise level quite much (20+ dB) so that they can provide the musician their preferred mix of the music (and click track for keeping the time).
And yes, MayheM were just what I expected them to be: outstanding. They are having their 40th anniversary tour (I am just 1 year older than the band!), so they played songs from each and every record they have published (there aren’t many).
@matigo Hah! I went to a 2-day festival where there were a bunch of bands I wanted to see live. They were all nice and few were awesome while the others, which I had not heard of yet, were mostly meh. 2 days went fast, now I am tired of all that standing until 1 or 2 am…
It was great to see Meshuggah live. They are indeed quite skillful musicians. And they played their most famous song, Bleed, that was as damn impressive live as it is on the record.
And now I am waiting for MayheM to start. I have never seen them live myself, but I have seen a ton videos of their live performances and they have nothing but great.
@matigo @hazardwarning That’s impressive.
As I have read books in 3 languages (🇫🇮,🇸🇪,🇬🇧) some the books have been a lot slower to complete. If the book is in Finnish and less than 400 pages long, I can read it in a week. But I like to vary my reading quite a lot, and thus the ”speed” gets reduced quite much.
@matigo So far I have read 11/12 books (one tome was 2 books in one) from start to finish and finished one that I started last year. So 20 books/year is probably too optimistic because the fall is oftentimes the busiest time of the year and I have a ton of other stuff to do as well. Maybe 15 would be possible.
The second trilogy set of the Millenium series is now read. There is one more book in the series but I think I would read something else next. What that is is still open.
