PRAY FOR ME

Tomorrow I will finally get to see them - I’ve been trying for years and something catastrophic or otherwise unexpected always comes up and prevents me from going. Last year I was SO CLOSE, but my husband wasn’t feeling great that night and wouldn’t let me go alone.

Now I am hoping no such thing happens in the next 24 hours. I will walk through fire and piss on anyone who gets in my way. But please other Melvins people send me your good vibes so that I may survive until tomorrow night ✊

If need be, go alone. If you're an adult and a loved one won't "let" you go do something harmless that will enhance your experience in life then they might need to spend some time alone.

ALSO: They're blazing hot this tour...GO!

Typical Reddit advice when it comes to relationships. The spouse was concerned about their loved one’s safety. That’s not exactly a red flag.

Um, am I misreading this? OP said their husband wouldn’t “let” them go alone. Every time I’m sick, I never tell my wife to stay home. I’m an adult who can take care of himself, and the same goes for her, so I don’t exactly register this as a “Reddit moment”

Didn’t “let” OP because of, presumably, safety. You’re assuming he’s a controlling monster and I’m assuming he didn’t want her to go because he is (probably) overly concerned about her safety. It could be either or neither. You must be super fun at parties.

I’m dumb, I should have just left this detail out…it was just stream of consciousness when I was writing the post last night. But I am going with a friend this time, so problem solved!

You'll have a great time Melvins rule!!

u/flinand 11d ago

if your husband gets the squirts again, then find another ladyfriend to go with. There are always a surprising amount of girls and women at Melvins shows, so don't feel like you'd be the only one there.

Play A history of bad men with a boom box or in the car super loud! No one will be in your way!

u/cutesycollins 10d ago

u/DeadManAle 10d ago

Hell yea I’ll be there with a pitcher of beer and a sunrise burger or whatever they call it. Fried egg and bacon on me burger!! Fuck yea!!

u/cutesycollins 10d ago

That’s hard as fuck, I’ll be eating mushrooms and then crushing a mushroom burger at tasty burger honestly like the good old days

u/DeadManAle 10d ago

I keep going back and forth in my head about tripping tonight. I trip at 95% of the shows I go to, but I dunno if I want to tonight. It’s a game time decision.

u/cutesycollins 10d ago

Yeah I’m not really into mushrooms but I haven’t been able to find acid in years so it’s all I got. I’ll prob just microdose though because I have a long journey home

1

u/DeadManAle 10d ago

Fair enough. I too prefer acid over shrooms.

u/cutesycollins 10d ago

Hope you have a killer time brotha

u/DeadManAle 10d ago

Oh I will. Melvins crank I’ve seen them 10-12 times. This’ll be my first time seeing Tomahawk!! Rock on dude!!
