I love a concert venue with a GA balcony. Itâs perfect for people like me who canât stand for as long as I used to. And people like me who are too short to stand in the back. The view is still fucking fantastic and I can sit when I need to.
Saw the Vaccines last night and they were so goddamn good. Iâm still crushing so hard on Matt Hitt after all these years. (If I could post videos youâd realize theyâre all focused on Matt).
Thus Love opened for them and they were also really good! Their sound reminded me of The Strypes a little. My bf bought me their record on the way out and I canât wait to listen.

gorgeous photo! and so unrelated but i was so curious i had to ask - your username isn't a reference to homeowner's associations, is it? đ
@RAVIOLI LOOOL itâs actually a reference to Eyes On Fire by Blue Foundation from the twilight soundtrack 𫡠BUT I like the idea that it could be about home owners associations

caught them during the deceiver tour back in 2019. I remember thinking they were good, but nothing crazy. Their current tour has shown so much improvement itâs insane. i always love seeing the same band perform a number of times over the years because you get to watch them evolve in real time. i donât know how to describe the difference other than imagine if there was a âsickââ knob on the audio equipment that they had turned up medium back in the day & now had fully cranked up. Played incredibly tight & integrated a really involved visual element (a lot of experimental video stuff).
TBH the video was cool but kind of detracted from the experience of watching them perform. I felt like the story they were trying to tell was drenched in this above it all every-direction critique of American empire via this post-ironic rendition of conspiracy-culture. donât get me wrong, it was cool and funny at points. But sometimes you can have something thatâs funny and cool & still have it subtract from the overall intended effect. Like I get it youâre very smart and very funny and youâre really showing off right now, but youâre distracting me! Youâre overloading me! Being even more honest, I should probably take my own advice on this issue LOL. I wouldnât even necessarily recommend that they change anything about the show. I guess itâs better to be doing a lot and err on the side of maximalism while saying something unique and cool than to play it safe! Sorry if this is rambling, Iâm just trying to collect my thoughts.
But yeah they played great nontheless. Had a great time, theyâre a really good band. wholeheartedly recommend. Favorite songs were: Like before you were born, horsehead, Blankenship (guess which diiv album is my favorite), brown paper bag (riff ripped straight from MBV and I loved it), raining on your pillow, doused(!)
I didnât take any pictures because I was living in the moment :^)

janelle monae in 2013(?) and she was electric (pun intended)
remi wolf (supported by dora jar) was a great show, very fun, smiled the whole time
caroline polachek, was the last gig the day before the first lockdowns in 2020 and then i caught covid (so did caroline so my headcancon was that i caught it from her) and saw Sophie in the flesh in the crowd
and the best as of recent was tune-yards, one of the most vibrant, high energy shows with one of the most excited and in-the-moment crowds of any gig i've been too - waited 10 years to see them and they did not disappoint

The last song @ played last time I saw them was a cover of Townes Van Zandtâs âNo Lonesome Tune.â it was a sweet way to close out their set, and the drawn out vocals on âliiiiineâ is stellar every listen. The harmonies are angelic and everyone should listen to this band.
This was recorded from the balcony of a house venue in west philly in December of 2023. @ performed as a 3-piece

I cry at Michael Stuhlbargâs monologue every single time. Sometimes I pull it up on YouTube when I need a cry.

I haven't used YouTube consistently in ages. I've randomly been getting suggested dj sets for all genres, and they're kind of everything to me.
I've linked the set I'm currently listening to.
Please suggest other DJ sets to listen to. Fuck Spotify this is where I live now.
