Love how they're positioning it like we wouldn't want them to release info on Trump. Like damn homies we'll scrounge up that money for you to release it!
Oh hell yeah, this will be worth it just for the full footage of the rooftop concert. Their performance of Don't Let Me Down that day might be the best thing they've ever done.
Just this past October I saw +@ at a small, weird New Hampshire radio station that was BYOB and had no real dressing rooms to speak of. Got to talk to Patrick while waiting for the bathroom. Talked about a show from 2011, handed him a beer from the cooler, and then after the set I was drunk and got him to sign my Local Business vinyl and ranted to him about how under-appreciated it is. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Saw that today as well and I will pay any amount and cancel anything to be there. A bit of a bummer in one aspect tho, considering this quote Patrick gave to the homie Dan Ozzi last summer about the prospect of doing an anniversary tour:
"Yeah, I've heard of these. Well, let me tell you something right now, Dan. If you ever hear about me doing something like that, you can be pretty well assured that I must be pretty hard up for money. I can hardly think of anything less artistically stimulating."
So, yeah everyone buy tickets to this tour.
More than any other album, this feels like MY album. I don't get much deep, personal connection with most music, but man this album hit me at a time in my life where it felt like it was made for me. My life weirdly mirrored the story (and thus Patrick's) for a little bit, and I blasted this constantly, singing along to it while driving on the Merritt Parkway and I-84 while Patrick sang about those roads. This album made me a Titus fan forever, no matter what they put out or where they play, I'll be there.
+@ FOREVER
Yeah was considering going Friday but there's really no one worth shelling out that much for. The best set of the day is going to be PUP and they tour non-stop anyways.
I've seen them like 10+ times now and went to Homecoming the first time. You're going to love it and appreciate how the live show deepens your relationship to the recorded songs. All of my favorite singers are just drunk poets anyway so I like sloppy Matt whenever that happens.
Yeah it's probably cyclical right? Grunge is a response to 80's pop, the Meet Me in the Bathroom era a response to late 90s pop explosion etc. etc. I'll just be biding my time until the scuzz rises to the top again.
Emotions and Math was one of my favorite albums of the last decade, but I'm not so sure about this song. Not really what I want from Glaspy, prefer the blues-y, crunchy sound her voice is perfect for.
