    This is not about Travis Scott.. though he is partially to blame, it's not about the rowdy crowd, though that's partially to blame, it's definitely not intended to make you scared of concerts, though the crowd of the show and aggressive behavior may bring fear.. this is about gross negligence, a toxic environment, and a lack of safety or support. This is a tragedy

    Scott has been arrested multiple times for inciting riots. People barged into this fest because he told them to break in. He got sued by a guy who got shoved off a balcony and is now in a wheelchai at Terminal West when he goaded people to jump. I'm not really on the "give poor Travis the benefit of the doubt" here. He could have done more.

    fuck.. i seriously didn't know about those parts... i just don't know what to do, its hard to know what to do with an artist you like after horrible things are shown and admitted... i was being selfish

    @duke86fan - It’s tough but I’ve learned recently that I can still like an artist and their music (or art) while not liking some of the other things they do

    tbh the title track of billies new album makes me wish she could do like a full indie rock album.. and get like wayne coyne or dave fridmann or even steve albini to work with finneas, and maybe get some features like weatherday or classic j of glass beach or julien baker.... i want this to be her folklore

    Was their set good? Reddit acts like it was a travesty. I was at a Paul van dyk show until 3am and went home lol

    It was.. mixed


    When it was good it was great, but technical issues, and the fact it seemed like Julian was drunk or emotionally bitter caused issues like not playing ode to the mets

    Also the mic was super distorted but in liked that

    Alice cooper still has it in his 70s

    And I got in early got RTJ (missed alice bringing out a giant baby to shoot confetti)... But it was worth it

    I sound like a diet Tom Kenny and it's because I yelled so much at close your eyes

    St Vincent killed it

    Sadly couldn't go to Peggy because I confused doors open for "show starts" and it would be too late

    We kinda just did nothing with cults in the background but it sounded nice

    We heard local H would be good but they were boring so we decided to go to Dermot Kennedy.. for what it was it was good but I am not into the Lewis Capaldi style

    is it a hot take to say i think the live action cowboy bebop trailer looks horrible (the editing kinda disoriented me with all of the confusing 4th wall cuts, which from what i know were not at all in the original)

    i dont know a LOT about cowboy bebop... but i know enough to know that anyone who didn't already know the plot would have no idea what is going on... whats with all the sudden set changes... it looks like an after effects demo..

    also if you are going to go so off the wall and surreal.. why not keep edward (she is both a nonbinary icon and a fun piece of childish insanity)

    It looks eh. I don't mind the cast but the line deliveries feel (perhaps intentionally) like a stilted dub. It's very, very difficult to mimic the visual rhythms of anime in live action; movements and cuts feel sluggish compared to animation.

    Doing it properly would take a lot of time and money and Edgar-Wright-level editing, so I'm just not sure it's a realistic expectation.

    I don't think the trailer is supposed to indicate that the show will be like that, rather it's more of an homage to the iconic opening sequence? The casting and general scenery look good. It would be a mistake to try to totally mimic the line delivery, so we'll see how it actually unfolds.

    nice article about the overly long rap album

    though honestly i think it isn't "too long" but more "there is way too much happening".. listening to a lot of albums it often feels like i heard 7 songs over the course of what was 3 on 45 minute LPs

    It's ok, her popularity has her playing really big venues. Gone are the days of Mitski with 500 or less people. I'm happy for her, she deserves it, but personally, I only go to venues with of 1,200 capacity or less these days; preferably much less. Unless it's Radiohead.

    @duke86fan It's on her website and she links you to Ticketmaster. When I tried to get tickets for the NOLA date, it said that it was going on sale Oct 7th (tomorrow).

    *facebook broke*

    is it time to crab rave because fuck facebook... or be sad that so many services are down?

    Is it bad to say I don't like Phoebe's bo Burnham cover, some of the emotion is kinda removed in her much more clean vocals and the emphasis on (personally) the wrong parts of the song (the lion king line has more emotional energy than the one about 20000 years of life but only 7 left)

    It makes some more sense given how she's using it in the live shows (Closing on IKTE and then using the encore as a bit of a cool down). As a standalone it's aight.

    I like it, but the original is still better... He doesn't have the same emotive voice, but it works better that way for this song.
