![]() Piano Man – Billy Joel: There are a ton of great Billy Joel songs out there, but Piano Man, more of a northeastern bar classic, is a solid bar song to which everyone knows the refrain.ġ2. One of the primary attributes of the songs on this list is staying power, and I have a feeling drunk college students and recent postgrads alike will be singing this song in a bar ten years from now.ġ1. Wagon Wheel – Old Crow Medicine Show: I was reluctant to put Wagon Wheel on here as an all-timer, but the fact of the matter is that although many have grown sick of this song, they still sing along. Rock And Roll All Night (And Every Day) – Kiss: I don’t care if it is a one-hit wonder, it’s a rock classic and has been primarily sung along to by drunk people for decades.ġ0. Livin’ On A Prayer – Bon Jovi: Guaranteed to make you almost lose your voice.ĩ. And hell, it has “American” in the title. American Girl – Tom Petty: Walk into any college bar while this song is playing and watch every sorority girl and recent grad belt out this song in unison. You Shook Me All Night Long – AC/DC: No song I’ve heard has gotten girls from eighteen to thirty-eight to do the same hair-swinging, white girl rock and roll dance quite like You Shook Me All Night Long.ħ. Longevity alone makes this a top fiver.Ħ. Sweet Home Alabama – Lynyrd Skynyrd: Another classic that’s been around for decades, Sweet Home Alabama is a bar staple, even in states nowhere near the state of Alabama. Sweet Caroline – Neil Diamond: Nothing will get a room full of basic white girls singing at the top of their lungs like Sweet Caroline. It’s also overplayed, but after five whiskeys, it’s the greatest song on the planet.Ĥ. Family Tradition – Hank Williams, Jr.: This is a big one in the southeast, but I’ve heard it in bars around the country. It’s a stone-cold classic, and when a song can get everyone in a bar to drop everything and sing along, that’s a number two song.ģ. Friends In Low Places – Garth Brooks: Even those who dislike country music cannot resist singing along to this song when it starts to play. Way overplayed to be sure, but it’s a bar all-timer and deserves the number one spot.Ģ. Don’t Stop Believing – Journey: Everybody knows the song, everyone knows the words, and if it plays in the bar at 1 a.m., I dare you to resist singing along. That being said, let’s look at the top twenty-five best bar singalong songs.ġ. Personally, I might listen to three or four of these bar songs while sober and hanging out, but that’s about it. Bar singalong songs are not necessarily the best songs - they’re just the catchy songs that get every drunk individual in the bar singing. Now, by good music, I obviously don’t mean good music. One of the best parts of getting plastered in public is being at a bar that blasts good music. ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() I’ve adjusted several blades throughout barber school as well as in the barber shop, but that doesn’t mean I’m a pro! So don’t just dive in and move your blades around without proper research and testing it on yourself. If they’re adjusted and are cutting smoothly straight on, but a slight 15* change in angle may still be cutting too close to the skin. This is the results of a trimmer that’s poorly adjusted and pressed too deeply into a clients nape! This is something you don’t want! You need to take note of both the teeth overlapping or not, as well as the angle you’d hold the clipper post-adjustment. This is a customer that came in to get his haircut fixed and have what the fuck happened to him figured out! This was his first haircut in America! That’s not how it should be done… Here’s his haircut post Rebel Rouser… Note: This isn’t my haircut nor my mistakes. Since I did adjust my blades, it does mean the moving blade is that much closer to the clients skin! If you’re looking to adjust your liners in the same manner that I did, be careful! If you aren’t cautious, you’ll potentially leave a client with a neckline like this: We’ll play things out and see how it goes! While I don’t mind the way the stock deep-toothed blade cuts, I feel that I’d be a bit more satisfied with a slightly adjusted blade. Having moved the blade forward, I’ve gotten cleaner and more consistent linings. Since it doesn’t have the deeper teeth, the feed of hair is very short and not very precise. On my grey T-liners, I’ve adjusted the blade so that the moving blade sits up closer to the stationary blade. I find the strokes to be a lot more powerful and consistent… something a female has yet to tell me… Sigh… in due time… But, sometimes, the strength of the motor isn’t always the case… Sometimes you gotta go in DEEP! Yet another thing a female has yet to tell me… Sigh… in another lifetime, I suppose… (As well as blade adjustments, of course, but that’s a post its own.) This is why you’ll typically see 2-3 of this style trimmer at a barbers station. If you’re new and are taking your time when cleaning the outline of a haircut, check the heat of the blade so you aren’t searing your client by the time you switch sides. And if you’ve read my first clipper review, you’ll know my stance on rotary motor clippers! But, magnetic motor trimmers do get hotter, and quicker, so take that into consideration. Personally, I’ve preferred the cut of magnetic motored trimmers as opposed to the rotary motored trimmers Wahl offers. The reason I’m more inclined to use this type of trimmer as opposed to Wahl, is because of the motor. And paired with a powerful magnetic motor, you’ll get just that! This is supposed to allow a better/cleaner feed of hair through to the cutting blade, which is supposed to cut longer hairs a lot smoother without leaving such a blunt cut. While identical in-terms of T-blade or square blade, the teeth on the stationary blade is a lot deeper on the GTX blade. One difference you’ll notice between the normal liner and the GTX Liner is the blade. The GTX is part of their Experience line, which has very slight yet noticeable differences between the general line and the Experience line.īody wise: They are identical in every which way… There’s also the Outliner II which has the square blade, but I’ve gotten used to maneuvering the corners of the T-blade well enough, that I’m not in dire-need of the square blade. The typical T-Outliner you’ll find in stores or online is the one with the grey body and maroon flip switch. But, today we’re focusing on the T-Outliners, so let’s stick to it! While I do have some by Wahl, I end up using my trimmers from Andis a whole lot more often and have several kinds. Chances are, if your barber isn’t using an Andis adjustable clipper or detachable, they’re definitely using one of their liners! From my short, yet, pretty consistent career in barbering, I’ve found my preference in trimmers to be with Andis. Every link is linked to a product that I, myself, have purchased and used personally as well as professionally.Īndis is definitely one of the top brands used by barbers. This post will include Affiliate Marketing links in which I may receive a small commission for qualifying purchases. What are the exact differences? Keep reading to find out! So next up, I’ll be reviewing one of the most popular trimmers by Andis, the T-Outliner, as well as the GTX version. Pretty damn helpful, if I do say so myself… ![]() In addition to my first clipper review, I figured instead of reviewing another clipper right off the bat, I’d review a trimmer, so the up-and-coming barbers have a better idea as to the variations of tools they’ll need. ![]() ![]() Anxiously gripping the pages from Flower, Kyung says that Haru will kill Dan-oh, and he gives her the charred pages to prove it. Kyung says that she needs to get the surgery, and asks her not to trust Haru or change anything.ĭan-oh says that it’s her choice to like Haru, and to change the story. She beams at him, but the Stage ends and her smile drops. The Stage continues as Kyung walks Dan-oh home, and he tells her that from now on, she should do whatever she wants and he’ll keep taking care of her. But she says she’s fine and doesn’t need surgery, though internally, she feels unsettled. He finally catches up to Dan-oh when a Stage starts up, and he unexpectedly hugs her, sure that she must be upset. Kyung has been trying to find Dan-oh, and was also getting kicked all over the hospital by Stages. When they get to his office, Doctor Lee reads her chart and announces happily that her new medicine is working, and she no longer needs the surgery. Meanwhile, onStage, Dan-oh and her father meet with Doctor Oh to discuss her treatment. He switches the patient notes pages of the two charts, so that now Dan-oh’s chart says she doesn’t need the surgery. He searches for Dan-oh’s chart, but every time he finds it and tries to alter the notes about her needing surgery, he gets kicked out of the room by Stages happening elsewhere and has to go back in and start over.Įventually Haru finds a second chart for a patient named Ok Kyung-soon. ![]() To help Haru change Dan-oh’s upcoming surgery, Do-hwa takes him to the hospital and distracts a doctor while Haru makes his way to Doctor Lee’s office.
