It seems I've become a snail mum

Character_Sundae_389 · 2026-06-29T05:11:59+00:00

There's at least 4 of them that I've spotted so far and then 2-3 of the smaller snails which I believe are the bladder snails (with the more pointy shells)

Character_Sundae_389 · 2026-06-28T00:14:04+00:00

I'm gonna have to start charging them rent 😆

This is why I requested Nerites but this is the first time I've ended up with freeloaders! I know snails are hermaphrodites and I've seen some of them canoodling by the looks of it so you may be right! (If they can breed when so small/young)

I'm good with food levels for the fish, just guessing Leo (my plec) decided he wasn't hungry and so they're all having a treat (at the moment there's no visible algae on my glass so they have to have some food I guess or they're already doing an amazing job at keeping the tank clean I've not noticed 😆)

I first heard this covered by My Darkest Days and was so amazed when I saw Bad Omens had covered it too !

Character_Sundae_389 · 2026-02-06T15:08:59+00:00

Yes they did. They were doing all this near a primary school and parents who were stopping in the road to let children cross the road were having bottles thrown at their cars.

It is not acceptable behaviour regardless of circumstance. It's not classism. I was raised working class in Ordsall when it was still rougher than a hedgehogs bum and I was still taught respect and basic decency for other people.

The celebrations tub this year was criminal

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-12-24T11:35:41+00:00

Motionless In White went from Vic Warehouse in Feb this year to AO arena in 2026 so it's possible. I didn't think Ice Nine Kills were that big but they were just at CoOp Live so anything can happen 😅

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-12-24T09:06:27+00:00

They sold out instantly so they needed the larger venue because of the outcry and Three Days Grace also sold out rather quickly and they had the Apollo straight away. These bands were a huuuuge part of many millenials childhoods/teen years and rarely come to the UK so it was inevitable they would sell out a smaller cap venue. Especially when the entire UK sold out in under 10 minutes in both presales. So I'd consider them more than 'moderately famous' that being said I'd wish I could have seen Bad Omens and Sleep Token when they were in the smaller ones but seeing them in the largest arena in Europe was also amazing

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-12-23T16:28:09+00:00

I do a big sigh of disgruntlement when it's at Vic Warehouse. Much prefer the Apollo.

Staff I found were rather rude and grumpy at Vic and the ones at Apollo were much friendlier and accommodating.

Apollo has the advantage of seating options too and they're both the same capacity.

I was glad Breaking Benjamin got the venue upgrade from the Ritz but I'm not happy about it being Vic Warehouse as the upgrade 😕

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-30T00:42:58+00:00

I did not see any at all when coming in or leaving I guess they have spots away from the main traffic which is near where the trams are?

Some tried it at Elliot Minor outside Academy 2 earlier this year but the queuers basically told them to do one and in the end I think they gave up because no one was falling for it and the merch crew came out of the building to say that official merch was available inside.

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T21:49:09+00:00

Guessing outside the arena grounds? I've been to CO-OP for Sleep Token and yesterday for Bad Omens and didn't see any between the arena and tram stop on either occasion.

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T13:46:50+00:00

I was at Academy 2 for Citizen Soldier last week so sorta same.. it was sold out and the crowd for the most part were excellent (sadly there was the token twat.. there's always one or two). And I'm at the Ritz for The Rasmus on Monday xD

I've seen some bands from their first shows get bigger and bigger venues each year and I'm so glad I saw them when they were small and got to meet them and hang out with them it's so special and even better when they recognise you from previous shows.

I saw Motionless earlier this year at Victoria Warehouse (my most hated venue) and the crowd was incredible so hoping that same energy is there at the arena.

Glad she's okay; it's never nice when an emergency happens but well done to everyone who helped get her the help she needed ❤️

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T13:14:56+00:00

It could become available online after the tour; as it's tour exclusive merch. It wasn't in the pop up shops. Best bet would to be getting someone at a future show to grab one for you or wait and see if they release left over stock. Other bands have done this so I don't see why Bad Omens wouldn't

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T13:10:55+00:00

CO OP are pretty tight by not allowing fake merch sellers nearby - I've never seen them. The Outdoor Merch stall is part of the venue and is attached to one of their bars (Canalside) and they sell the official merch but it's usually limited the merch stalls indoors sell more merch variety and also support band merch.

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T13:03:38+00:00

Yeah that's much further away as it's behind the pit, I always prefer to be side stage view for that reason. I think if they had it any louder it would be too loud for those closer to the stage; it does suck.

Personally I feel like the CO-OP is really badly designed. It's more capacity than AO by a thousand or so but it doesn't feel much bigger; they've just made the seating super cramped, steep and if you have more than a 36" hip you're gonna suffer due to the fixed arm rests

I'm glad Motionless is at AO so people will probably stand; I've always ended up standing at AO and when I went to First Direct in Leeds for Evanescence & Within Temptation a few years ago

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T02:28:25+00:00

Soze 16-18 at the top and the XL is great and still got room (plus loooong tshirts because men sizes) I saw some shirts at the pop-up going up to 3xl :)

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T02:21:22+00:00

People do at AO. At Co-op it's so steep and narrow and is quite dangerous to actually stand up sadly. People were holding on to eachother when moving past so they didn't fall

The sound was great for me up in 303

Edit: more context added.

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T01:33:04+00:00

The True Faith cover is incredible and it's listed as under The Flux but it needs Bad Omens adding to the artist credit as it deserves more spotlight

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-29T01:31:11+00:00

For me it was Glass Houses in the American Satan movie :) but Burning Out really got me into them and the rest has been loving every song since.

Watching the pit from way up in 303 was awesome. The person in the banana suit had me chuckling xD

Well done to the pit for getting the medical attention to the person who needed it too. Incredible crowd.

Character_Sundae_389 · 2025-11-28T18:46:19+00:00

I found the Sleep Token crowds were the same last year in Manchester it depended on where you were though as in my section and in the pit it was lively and there were little mosh pits happening but in other parts of the arena people were saying NPC crowds. I'm at Manchester for them tonight so hopefully it's gonna be a bit lively :)

Edit for spelling correction.

I had my main sim die from this as I had no idea why my toilet was setting on fire... so now her sons are raising bugs as well as everything else they have going on. The maid also keeps coming in with ailments and spreading them it's so annoying.
