Patience
I think her voice is a little too toned back. They should turn her up louder.
They are so good live, it's ridiculous. I saw them in New Oleans a few months ago in a small theater. It was just them two. One of the best shows I've ever seen.

I saw BadFinger many moons back. Small show of like 100 peeps.
 
I hate it because I can never get the frag to stick where I want it...
Ever try drilling a 1:2” hole with a masonry bit? I did that on the caribsea and it seemed to work. But haven’t tried it on the live ocean. I had pre drilled a few rocks then dropped them in the back dump to age.

No because next to placing the frags moving the rocks is my last favorite because them they don't balance right again. ROFL
 
I didn't catch it at all. I just assumed it was a new series that had something to do with trains.
Opening music
"Detective Johnson is a railroad agent on the A line."
🤣 🤣😂
Never read any of these posts before I posted the previous song been singing the song Stop That Train all day guess I know why now Wes 🤣😂🤣

Maybe you are already doing this, but I found the easiest way for me is to cut the stem off the frag plug with bone cutters and then use a glue like BSI (thick gel) and glue it onto the rock. Works pretty well and rarely needs to be remounted.

I’m in and out quickly because the Lemon Damsels really like to attack my hand if I get close to their spot. Apparently an 8 ft tank is not big enough for them. Don’t get them, they are jerks.

I cut the frag plug then have used gorilla glue and a combination of gorilla glue and coral epoxy stuff.
