Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

Me. I just hope I have enough extension chords to power my laptop and my stereo system from the generator. I don't even want to try lasting a day without either of those.
I always enjoy doing something until I have to.
Good thing I'm supposed to be doing stuff other than music.

I'm in Jersey, but from what I'm seeing, it doesn't look like I'll be losing power.

Northwest New Jersey here. Windy as fuck and only getting worse. Haven't lost power yet, but it's only a matter of time. We have a generator and a good amount of gas, so we're prepared. I really wish I could record the sound of this wind though, it's crazy awesome.

Central Mass, lost power for a few secs already. Pretty hard rain and wind but nothing I haven't seen. Not too worried myself. I just saw a thing on the news of a crane blown on top of a 100 story building in New York though, sux to be them :P

No power out here yet. Which is weird, because I'm south of Massachusetts.

Thank god I live on the west coast, all we get here are earthquakes (like the 7.7 the other day), but in all seriousness, I hope you all are alright, must be quite a sight though.

The lights are starting to flicker and stuff, hopefully I'll be able to plug the Internet router in the generator.

Dude, is everyone alive?


The wind and rain are going strong here in Virginia, i'm up near DC. No power lost yet, which is cool. Still holding out for school power to be knocked out for the rest of this week.
My goal is to be capable of making any kind of music that strikes my fancy, and do it well.

My power just went out for like an hour. And they canceled school tomorrow literally twenty seconds before it came back on :)

Pretty much all wind is gone here. Good thing the hurricane'll come back south to keep us all at home for the rest of the week.

I LIVE IN AUSTRALIA WOOHOO
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Seriously though, we're seeing your storm all over the news here.
Good luck. May celestia guide you through your darkest hours.
I cannot make music at all.

I can mix very well. PM me if you want me to mix ANYTHING. However, college is sapping my spare time at the moment. MLR is a once-in-a-blue-moon thing.

Well that was disappointing. At least where I am, hopefully all you guys farther up the coast are doing all right.

Yeah, I was hoping it would come back down here like they said.
Somehow, I knew this wouldn't be nearly as bad as people were expecting.
