Yeah, really good breakfast food. Kinda old-school. Charming place

placid grotto
#

Yooooo my bestie loves breakfast food, I’ll absolutely check it out

clear pumice
#

I like getting the barstool seats on the right side. Really good conversation restaurant.

#

Also decently priced. Usually I spend ≈$25 when I'm there

placid grotto
#

That’s not too bad at all :00

clear pumice
#

Yeah

#

Have you ever been to Tommy's malt shop in Chaska?

#

If so, the malts/shakes at Wampachs are better. At least imo

placid grotto
#

I’m not up in Chaska often, I tend to inhabit just north or north west of the cities

Like the Maple Grove/Arden Hills kinda area

clear pumice
#

Ah

placid grotto
#

I head up there to visit friends and go to events though!

clear pumice
#

Nice!

#

Yeah I used to live in the Crystal MN area by the cities but we moved down to Carver a few years ago and I love it here. I don't think I'll ever get bored of the beautiful scenery here.

placid grotto
#

I’ve heard it’s really pretty over there :0!!

im in like a pretty chill and lowkey area. Now much for sights but much quieter than the city

#

Facts

placid grotto
#

The cities are really only good for music anyway 😂

#

Your photos are really good! How’d you rate the show?

clear pumice
#

10/10

#

100%

#

I've been to a few other concerts (not GK), one of them was also at 1st avenue; this one topped them all.

#

The room was mixed really well.

#

I also have a ton of videos I took, but my voice is in the background of basically all of them🤦‍♂️

placid grotto
#

Dude the mixing was AWESOME

#

I’ve probably been to north of half a dozen shows at first ave, one of which was a band that was mixed so poorly I couldn’t even tell they were playing my favorite song by them

clear pumice
#

Ooof

placid grotto
#

Everything at this show was so clear, absolutely awesome

#

Shout out to Paul lmao

clear pumice
#

Yeah, when a room is mixed well, it sounds louder than it actually is. Mixed poorly however and 100db actually sounds like 130db and not in a good way

placid grotto
#

Oh yeah, been there for sure

#

Let me see if I’ve got video of that shit mix show for comparison

clear pumice
#

I went to a Steven Sanchez concert a couple years ago at first avenue and it was pretty good but WAY too loud

#

However, if you mix a room well you don't need to run it as loud to "get the point across" so to speak

placid grotto
#

No vids of that one concert 😭

But the point stands, this mix was awesome

#

They also sound just like their recordings which is so cool

clear pumice
#

Yes! Even Phoneboy sounded really good. That Steven Sanchez concert was mixed poorly for the opener and better for Sanchez

placid grotto
#

It was my first time hearing phoneboy, I was pleasantly surprised! Sometimes openers just fall short but they absolutely set the bar high for the night

clear pumice
#

Yes!!

#

I found out about them about a month ago (because of the concert) and started listening to a little bit of them.

#

They knocked it out of the park

placid grotto
#

I knew of em, one of my friends I went with adores them and has apparently been subbed to them since they started, she was so excited she got to meet them!

clear pumice
#

Nice!!!

placid grotto
#

Guessing from where you were you didn’t attend VIP? It was an awesome set up especially for a VIP show

clear pumice
#

Yeah, I was a bit to the right and behind the sound booth... Where were the VIP spots? Center floor?

placid grotto
#

We got early access to the venue, exclusive merch, and an acoustic concert before hand, so definitely worth the extra money

#

I ended up front and center so awesome from a show perspective, not necessarily from a recording/photo perspective

clear pumice
#

Because I bought my tickets all the way back in September

opal rose
#

I got mine on axs

placid grotto
#

I use Band is in Town for tickets, it’s an app. You follow artists you like and they notify you

clear pumice
#

Same

placid grotto
#

Mine were also purchased through AXS

clear pumice
#

Hmmm

placid grotto
#

but band is in town let me know about the VIP ones

#

I got mine in October

clear pumice
#

Maybe I just didn't see the VIP option. Or I didn't care enough

#

Okay

opal rose
#

Bandisintown is really good

clear pumice
#

I should get that...

placid grotto
opal rose
#

You can select cities around you and it'll notify you of which bands are coming to that area

#

Alternatively, you can follow a band and it'll tell you where they'll be

clear pumice
#

Sweet!

placid grotto
#

The bands also send out tour notifications and merch drops!

#

You also get emails about artists coming to your area so you can check out new folks, too!

#

First Ave has a birthday policy where if you show up on the actual day of your birth they’ll let you and a friend in for free, even if it’s a sold out show :)

clear pumice
#

😮My birthday was on the 13th

#

Good to know for next year

placid grotto
#

Eyyy mines this Friday!

clear pumice
#

Happy birthday!!!

#

I just turned 19

#

Side note

#

I was STOKED when they played ground

placid grotto
#

Im turning 23 which is wild 😭

#

ME TOO

#

IT WAS BETTER LIVE

#

I think I got some of that one on video 🤔

clear pumice
placid grotto
#

So close!!

clear pumice
placid grotto
#

I don’t think I got the beginning cause it was so sudden but I think I heard you yelling that 😂

clear pumice
#

I was way too pumped at this concert, I daresay I was possibly one of the loudest people there 😅. My voice carries though so it could be that.

placid grotto
#

I learned quick in my concert going that I can’t sing along if I’m recording or that’s all you’ll hear 😂

clear pumice
#

Yeah, forgot about that😅

#

That's in EVERY video I took 🤦‍♂️

placid grotto
#

YOU CAN SEE ME IN THAT VIDEO

clear pumice
#

What?! Lol nice

#

I think I sang a lot less in that video. But yeah, my voice is super present. You can also tell I was losing my voice.

placid grotto
#

I’m like 70% sure that’s me

#

With the buns lol

clear pumice
#

Hahahahahaha

#

That's funny

#

I'm hoping they post that selfie with the whole crowd

#

I've been checking their insta but we'll see

placid grotto
#

Oh that would be awesome!

clear pumice
#

The energy he brings while playing bass is contagious

placid grotto
#

The stupid lights kept interfering with my camera 😭

clear pumice
#

Wow, FRONT AND CENTER

placid grotto
#

I WASNT KIDDING

clear pumice
#

Mine has a similar issue with some songs

placid grotto
#

That’s like 90% of the video I took lol

clear pumice
#

Lighting issue or not your phone still took a pretty decent video

#

I got a few pretty good clips of Phoneboy

placid grotto
clear pumice
#

Thank you!!!
