    RIP Dickey Betts

    One of the greatest ever in my opinion. If you can't tell from my username, I'm a bit of an Allman Brothers fanatic. From playing with Duane, to helping to lead the Allman brothers forward past Duane and then Berry's deaths, Dickey was part of the heart and soul of the band. Great singer and...

    This May be Heresy........

    I felt this way until I tried a p-lip on a straight pipe. Couldn't stand it in bent pipes but I barley noticed a difference between fishtail or p-lip on a straight pipe. Which is great for me since I love straight pipes anyways and it opens up a whole new selection of Pete's that I could buy haha.

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2024?***

    How'd I know the late night posts would be you? I just finished a bowl of 2018 Dunbar in a Savinelli Punto Oro Dublin army mount. About to light up a home blend VA/Per/Oriental in a Peterson Ragaire bulldog.

    Sam Gawith Burnt Ends

    I picked some up already along with some Full VA Plug when the website decided to play nice. That last picture in this thread makes me think I made the right decision 🤤

    Dad Advice

    My son just turned 1 a few months ago and man everybody is right. Blink and you'll miss it. I think part of the reason parenting advice can be so varied is because, when they're little like this especially, what works today might not work tomorrow. You just have to roll with the punches and try...

    What Are Your Favorite Pipes To Collect?

    Lately it's been Peterson bulldogs for me. I still love a good classic billiard or Dublin or even panel straight pipe from any number of makers. But over the past few years bulldogs and especially Pete bulldogs have been my weakness. And they do all get smoked in the rotation.

    Rouxgaroux: A Rexminderx

    I grabbed a pound. Still got a little left from last year I'll probably smoke while waiting for this year's batch to arrive.

    Peterson 2023 Christmas Pipe

    Decided to grab a 150. Been on a Bulldog kick for a while, especially Pete Bulldogs. And I always love a good sandblast.

    Ringtones

    Love this, Stiff Little Fingers are so awesome. For my phone I never mess with the ringtone because I leave it on vibrate all the time. Although I used to set it to sections of songs I liked but I eventually found that it always ruined that song for me because I eventually couldn't listen to...

    Are You Country or City?

    When I was a young boy having been raised in the country I thought city life would be for me. It didn't take much maturing to see that I'm a country boy through and through. My wife and I are currently looking for more land in the area we currently live in.

    Let’s See your Guitars!

    Don't have pictures of some others like my cheap banjo, my Republic resonator, or a few other cheaper acoustics. Putting together a new partscaster strat right now which is also not pictured.

    Pipe Smoker who Plays Keys

    Welcome from NC! I'm a guitar player who picked up a keyboard to play around with a few years back. Still not any good but I like messing around with it from time to time haha.

    Peterson Pipe of the Year 2023

    I've never minded the p-lip but after buying some straight p-lip pipes recently I've become more of a fan. Doesn't help in this instance since I won't be buying a bent pipe since I rarely smoke those but personally I noticed much less of a difference between a p-lip and a fishtail when the pipe...

    In Stock Alert: Samuel Gawith Brown Sugar Flake

    Well I usually have good luck with P&C but I placed an order last Wednesday and still haven't received shipping confirmation after 10 days. Guess I'll have to reach out and have them cancel the order.

    NHL Playoffs

    As an NC native I'm rooting for the canes but I don't know if they've got what it takes to make it all the way. Also like the wild, they play some tough hockey that is fun to watch.

    Bought a Guitar

    Seems like a lot of other folks have already given you a lot of great advice. I'm primarily a guitar player but have a piano, mandolin, banjo, drum kit, and other random instruments to mess around with. The great thing about no longer being in a band and just playing at home for myself is...

    Géométrie... How Much Did You Order?

    I also picked up a couple tins of the Virgina Jazz at the same time as I grabbed 5 tins of the geometrie. I really enjoyed Hogshead and thought Give Me Liberty was pretty good as well. Looking forward to trying both of these.

    Géométrie... How Much Did You Order?

    I am tempted as I Va/Or blends are a favorite of mine right behind my beloved VA and VA/per. I do enjoy plugs but I agree that I've never had a C&D/GLP plug that was actually dense. Triple Play and Jackknife plug don't fall apart like a crumble cake but they're not pressed like European plugs are.
