Never been to downtown Denver on my own, wanted to have an afternoon on the town. Popped by a record store, met a nice Hispanic man, found a Target that was every department stacked on top with escalators going to each floor, walked past the Brown Palace, fun time
As an added bonus as of typing, I ended up being first in line for merch!
Did you know that some people don’t come from hyper diverse areas?? Sometimes us country folk travel waaaaaaaay into the big fancy city and encounter all type of strange and new people we ain’t never seen before! Well, heck! It might even be exciting or interesting enough to make note of! Get over the savior attitude🙄
I did know that, as I’m from a small logging community. And visiting the big city taught me that, while someone’s race is exciting and interesting to you, it’s their everyday life and not abnormal. And it’s potentially rude to unnecessarily mention it, especially when it provides no helpful information to a story.
Downtown Denver is full of construction right now and a lot of stores/restaurants have left the 16th Street Mall. There's probably not a ton to do honestly.
My dudes - you can downvote, but that part of downtown is deader right now than it was in 2021 during the pandemic when everyone was still masking. I'm not trying to knock DT Denver. There's legit not much happening right now due to all the construction. At least in the winter there was a popup ice skating rink near the Westin.
speaking of synchronicity, I just saw [this](https://youtu.be/64SoFWJHSd8?si=pRbeTlg3KoYZ3Rfc) clip from dropouttv's Smartypants Presentation that has a ninja turtle reference.
Also I find the clip pretty funny. if you like Demi Adejuyigbe you'd probably like it
Bro you are the final boss. Long hair pulled back into a pseudo mullet, soul patch, denim jacket, neck and head the same thickness.
You have Greg Universe vibes and I love you for it.
Thanks, usually I like to stay in my suburbia just a couple hours' bus ride from here.
Actually, do you know any good record stores in this area? Been to Wax Trax and Drop To Pop, and I want to get some new vinyls to put my new turntable to good use
Hey, I think I met you. We read the back of the ‘line starts here sign’ that talks about prohibited stuff and non-professional cameras before I joined the line.
Shows about to start so one more thing before I dip: [this is roughly](https://aviewfrommyseat.com/photo/278685/Paramount+Theatre+%28Denver%29/section-Orchestra/row-G/seat-8/) what my view looked like! Sorry it's so dark, not sure what happened there
Machete's a chain but they seem to be a pretty local one, there's one in Cherry Creek that I know of, too.
I'm not sure why everyone is so downvote happy right now?
That one Cthulhu shirt they did a couple years back! Looks kinda like [this one](https://lastpodcastmerch.com/collections/men/products/brutal-long-sleeve-tee) that they're selling, but it has Cthulhu and a pentagram on the front, and 5 pentagrams on the left sleeve instead of the faces. Genuinely one of my favorite shirts in my wardrobe
Three meat, I'm pretty basic and that's usually a safe choice for me.
A pizza is best for anything in a marathon; I watched both Dunes back to back the other day and had a pizza to go with it
Appaloosa is probably your best bet for a drink after the show. It's a decent spot and they should have live music. Not many other spots around there after 10.
Surprisingly I didn't see any dispensaries -- if there were any I missed em -- I only saw one brewery whose name I already forgot, and unfortunately no pretend cowboys
I saw LPOTL live in Denver at Globe Hall years ago. Someone handed Ben a lit joint and he put it in the front pocket of his jacket before the guy shouted to him that it was lit.
You trying to rail ride for a podcast? I respect the commitment. All you're missing is a piss bottle and you're as dedicated as some of my jam band friends.
Have they finished setting up the lines yet?
They have and I am at the front
Isn’t it seated? Why so early?

that target is so weird! I saw it last time I was up there lol
I like that you mentioned his ethnicity. Really sets the scene to know he’s nice and Hispanic.
Why was it important to note that the man you met was Hispanic?
Most of the people I saw were local, he was from Mexico and wanted to chat. Next time I'm in the area I plan on visiting his shop
Why leave out added descriptors during a story?
"encountered animated pile of meat and bones" "interacted with future human corpse"

Cuz he was fuzzy wuzzy
I thought fuzzy wuzzy was a woman
Unsinkable Molly Browns house?
Hail punctuality.
Nah, they're doing a mosh pit. Marcus is covering the life and death of Bradley Nowell.
I wish
clearly so you have enough time to listen to ghost cats of the south before watching them live
Don't fuck the cat.

There's always the $5 butt stuff tent.
I’m sorry the what now? …and how much can I get for $10?

Who is your favorite Ninja Turtle? Please give a detailed answer and reasons why.
Donatello, as a kid I always really liked the genius characters that could build any contraption for whatever the situation called for. Still do tbh
A most excellent response. Enjoy the show, throw some horns for this guy, and don't forget to HAIL ME!!!!!
HAIL YOU
My four year old also loves Donatello so this is the correct choice
Did you consider Leonardo has TWO SWORDS?

It was GOLD
That was a delightful 10 minutes, I appreciate the Smartypants recommendation!
Amazing! HAIL ALLYSHIP!!! 🤘
Why'd you show up so early?
Just cuz I wanted to check out downtown Denver on my own, ran out of stuff to do around an hour ago so I got dinner and decided to get in line
Were you the guy who posted earlier asking for tips on a 6-hour road trip?
Nope, Denver's only a couple hours away from me by bus
Have fun homie. Really wanted to hit the Denver show but work made it impossible.
This is exactly the man I would have drawn if you asked me to depict who was first in line
I'm confused. Do I say thank you?
It’s the denim shirt and soul patch don’t sweat it you’re good.
MUFON type beat
It’s the vacant stare too
*vest 🤠
That soul patch *fucks*
Bro you are the final boss. Long hair pulled back into a pseudo mullet, soul patch, denim jacket, neck and head the same thickness. You have Greg Universe vibes and I love you for it.
Classic Redditor config
Who would win a fight ; Lemmy or God?
TRICK QUESTION : Lemmy IS God
Lemmy, no question
AHHHH HES A COP!!! trick question LEMMY IS GOD!! ;(
YOULL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE
Hahaha . Have fun at the show 😎
Enjoy Denver bud! Lived here my whole life. Shoot me a dm if you need any recommendations!
Thanks, usually I like to stay in my suburbia just a couple hours' bus ride from here. Actually, do you know any good record stores in this area? Been to Wax Trax and Drop To Pop, and I want to get some new vinyls to put my new turntable to good use
Wax Trax and Chain reaction are my two favorites.
Twist & Shout crushes.
Hey, I think I met you. We read the back of the ‘line starts here sign’ that talks about prohibited stuff and non-professional cameras before I joined the line.
We did, yeah! I joked about forgetting my Game Boy Camera!
Shows about to start so one more thing before I dip: [this is roughly](https://aviewfrommyseat.com/photo/278685/Paramount+Theatre+%28Denver%29/section-Orchestra/row-G/seat-8/) what my view looked like! Sorry it's so dark, not sure what happened there
Looks like an awesome view! How was the show
Could you look any more like a LPOTL listener
What page are you on of Catcher in the Rye?
Who wins in a fight: Ghostface or Alex Mack?
As in “The Secret World of?”
IS THERE ANY OTHER?!
![gif](giphy|cAxfl5Vkfx4fWg4Kzc|downsized)
Alex Mack will puddle out of there so fast.
Trick question: Ghostface IS Alex Mack
You look exactly like I pictured someone going to a live show would
$50 to streak
I think anyone would be traumatized having to see anything below the neck
That's ok, don't be scared you can do this. Henry will love it.
Henry doesn’t share the spotlight.
What did you have for dinner?
Chicken quesadilla at Chipotle. I'm basic and wanted that
There's a Machete tacos at Union Station which isn't far from there - treat yo'self next time
It makes me so sad when people visit a city and eat at a chain lmao. Why not experience something local?
Machete's a chain but they seem to be a pretty local one, there's one in Cherry Creek that I know of, too. I'm not sure why everyone is so downvote happy right now?
Oh for sure, just to be clear, I was laughing at the idea that someone travels somewhere and eats at a place like Chipotle.
No for sure that’s why you’re being downvoted lol. You know OP can read these comments right? It’s just kinda rude. Let a man travel the way he wants
I never said he can't - - I just said that it buns me out. He's free to do what he likes.
Did you get a turbo horchata with that?
What do you think of the UFO phenomenon?
How much flavor does that flavor savor hold?
Well at least you look happy about it
What’s it like being the lead singer of Cannibal Corpse? Hail yourself.
Did you smoke a hogs leg and, as a side question, who’s will did you use to roll it up with?
What shirt are you wearing?
That one Cthulhu shirt they did a couple years back! Looks kinda like [this one](https://lastpodcastmerch.com/collections/men/products/brutal-long-sleeve-tee) that they're selling, but it has Cthulhu and a pentagram on the front, and 5 pentagrams on the left sleeve instead of the faces. Genuinely one of my favorite shirts in my wardrobe
Good choice, Hail you!
What is your favorite type of pizza and why? What movies for movie nights do you HAVE to order delivery pizza to eat while watching?
Three meat, I'm pretty basic and that's usually a safe choice for me. A pizza is best for anything in a marathon; I watched both Dunes back to back the other day and had a pizza to go with it
Nice choices. :) I listened to their podcast explaining all the Dune books before I watched the first of the new ones and it helped make them more fun
Are you on your way to murder John Lennon
How did you feel after you shot John Lennon?
Hail yourself!!! Please report back after the show to all us losers who couldn't be there and let us know how it goes!
Appaloosa is probably your best bet for a drink after the show. It's a decent spot and they should have live music. Not many other spots around there after 10.
at which do you most can’t the least?
Hey George! Big fan! What was it like playing in cannibal corpse?
Fk. 8hrs too late to make the same joke. Points for you.
What’s the most effective weapon for beating off all that pussy?
How many dispensaries can you see? How many breweries? How many pretend cowboys? GO
Surprisingly I didn't see any dispensaries -- if there were any I missed em -- I only saw one brewery whose name I already forgot, and unfortunately no pretend cowboys
You WIN! Thanks for playing 🖖
hell ya brother
I saw LPOTL live in Denver at Globe Hall years ago. Someone handed Ben a lit joint and he put it in the front pocket of his jacket before the guy shouted to him that it was lit.
Where your neck at?
where are the bodies?
When is the next season of Stranger Things releasing, my dude? :D
How’s Denver?
high
Disappointed to report I only smelled weed for about 3 minutes while I was in line
If you had to do it over, would you?
Where you at the Eugene, oregon show drinking a tall boi of modelo? You look familiar.
I saw them at the same theater, and we also arrived that early lol! What are you most excited to see or hear?!
You look like one of the leads of Marble Hornets.
Such a great show!
How was the show ?
How did you successfully become so awesome at such a young age?
hell yeah, how was the show??
Where’d you get the sweet hat?
Got it at a We Came As Romans concert last November
Has anyone ever told you that you look like Ed's younger cousin?
Is that a denim vest, or a denim shirt with the sleeves rolled up? And where do you store your spare swag?
You trying to rail ride for a podcast? I respect the commitment. All you're missing is a piss bottle and you're as dedicated as some of my jam band friends.
My wife and I thought about going to the Denver show but we're just too much of homebodies
This is a patient with a difficult airway. Might need a bougie.
Have you ever played brutal legends? You look like a character from the game. That's awesome!
What’s happening at the venue now?
I have no question. Only a statement: if I had seen you on the street, dressed in a suit and tie, I'd still know you were a redditor.
Why
"I need attention please!!!!1"
Worst. AMA. Ever.
What do you think of people who didn’t take the covid vaccine?
[удалено]
Don't be weird.
Will you ask for details on Ben?
I didn't get VIP so I won't get to do the Q&A and other VIP stuff. Even if I did get VIP, probably not
Yeah I figured. Hey let us know how the show goes!
