I will definitely pick up some indigo wabash and make it 4. I'd really love a pair in the same 11oz herringbone like the IH-735 pants. I don't need the duck ones (duck material has never really struck my fancy), and the white ones I know I'd get messy which is why I'd probably just dye them.

@sabergirl Just 3 for now. 21oz indigo, black wabash, and hickory. The wabash is by far my favorite.

Are you going to Memphis for something specific, or just looking to hit another spot near Nashville on the trip?

I haven't been to Memphis in almost 20 years, other than just driving through to other places, but these days I'd probably say there is more to do if you head down to Chattanooga and Atlanta.

@Crispy-Heron You're here for a whole couple of weeks? Whatchu getting into?

There really isn't much of a market in the Nashville area for Iron Heart adjacent clothing these days. There is Franklin Road Apparel (30 or so mins south of downtown Nashville) and Imogene + Willie for what'd Id say is more of a easy breezy southern Cali vibe these days. Also Stag Provisions which is down the street from I+W. For boots and hats, are you looking for cowboy hats and boots, or more traditional everyday type stuff?

For food, I still stand behind my recs above which are my favorites. Lockeland Table, City House and Butcher and Bee are great, Jeni's Ice cream which the kids will probably love (and multiple locations around town), probably more that I'll think of later.

I love my bibs. I really want to pick up an indigo wabash pair to round out the set. Maybe one of those white herringbone ones if it comes my way again as well, and I'll probably ice dye it with some shades of blue.

@sabergirl Looking good! Now I'm inspired to wear my hickory bibs tomorrow!

When I was in high school, I had an upright piano in my bedroom that I got for free from a local church. I had enough records to fill up about 1/3 or 1/2 of the top, and I listened to all of them pretty regularly. I'm just trying to get back to that. There are some that I don't think I have touch in 20+ years, other than when flipping through.

Finally started listening to records again this week. It's probably been a year or longer since I've spun one. I'm in the process of going through a bunch to give away or sell. As with most stuff in my home these days, I'm going with quality over quantity. I remember when we moved to Nashville, I had probably 1500 or so, maybe more. Sold so many on Discogs and eBay in the last couple of years.

Also this band:

Somehow a whole bunch of French punk and oi has popped up on my radar. Into it!

Just got turned on to this band. Sounds like french Hot Water Music with a chorus pedal!

@mclaincausey what was that music playlist voting app thing we did a couple years back? Should the group do that again?

Negative space, as in just holes and rips and such?

@dubj7 is that a Vanderbilt hat? You in Nashville, too? Bibs are looking good. My unofficial summer uniform here in nash are bibs and a tank top.

Message me for measurements and pics. I'm looking to swap my size 42 for a size 40. Maybe a size 38 depending on measurements.

Both pairs of 666's SOLD

Bump!

@mudhogen Welcome! fellow Nashvillian here!

I've got a couple Benchmade Osbornes that I use for EDC, but looking to grab a multitool to have in my backpack. What's a good one? I used to have a Leatherman maybe 25 years ago (not sure which model) but curious if there are other great options out there.

Don't need a ton of things on it, but mostly looking for it to have a nice pliers and screwdriver option. Maybe some small saw or something. Don't really need files, knives, or whatevs.

EDIT: just realizing this post may have been better suited in the EDC thread. Feel free to move if needed, mods.

Blue UHF SOLD!
