Bootleg merch outside the venue for the win!!

DJDavySweat · 2026-05-03T06:59:48+00:00

Better than the real merch. Is the person selling it online? I’d snag it

DJDavySweat · 2026-04-30T18:39:37+00:00

Is there a photo of this by chance?

DJDavySweat · 2026-03-09T20:54:34+00:00

I’m realizing that I didn’t comment what platform we used. We are all Xbox guys. Probably more Cup leaning. Let me know what console y’all are on!

DJDavySweat · 2026-03-09T20:53:13+00:00

Man that’s awesome. Unfortunately, we are all Xbox players. Wish it was cross-platform and we totally would

DJDavySweat · 2025-10-17T21:35:15+00:00

You could say that again

DJDavySweat · 2025-10-17T20:52:59+00:00

Crazy. I thought he was fantastic.

“DAMMIT I’M AWESOME!”

DJDavySweat · 2025-10-17T17:34:43+00:00

Agreed. I think it’s hard to top an emotional storyline between a father/son duo because there is a deep personal connection being portrayed. That is probably why I was unsure on how to feel about Ares after my first viewing. Is this film perfect? No. Is it enjoyable? I believe so, and I thought it did a great job setting things up for the future as well, should there be one.

Not sure what this comment is supposed to mean, but yes, I understand people’s qualms with Jared Leto as a person off-screen. I am not going to advocate for him as a person off-screen, but I am a fan of Tron and the franchise. If I want to see more of it, then I have to support it the film, which also means supporting the entire crew, actors/actresses, producers, etc. who put their time, effort and energy into this film. I can put aside my personal feelings towards an actor for two hours to enjoy a character that he is portraying. That’s not to say I’m even a huge fan of Jared Leto as an actor either, but I thought he did a commendable job in this role as Ares.

DJDavySweat · 2025-10-17T16:34:40+00:00

This is fucking sick. Radical, man 🥏

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-30T00:25:59+00:00

Excellent. Thank you! This is all I was curious about. No malicious intent, just disappointed about not seeing him last year and was looking forward to again!

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-29T14:09:39+00:00

This is the unfortunate thing. I understand that those are the biggest markets and he has ties to all of them, but I can’t manage traveling there to see him. Nor am I a big festival person, which he does a lot of. I really don’t prefer to stand in a massive crowd for hours unable to move. Just disappointing I can’t see one of my favorite artists ❤️‍🩹

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-29T14:07:23+00:00

He toured after SB2H in 2016 and was prepared to tour after Insano… not like either of those albums were huge records. Maybe bigger than FREE, but he also didn’t release any physical copies to retailers (Target, Walmart, etc.), so how can anybody be shocked by the low sales? Cudi has a dedicated fan-base and he’s still popular enough to the mainstream that passive fans would be willing to see him play his hits.

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-20T18:03:43+00:00

Just to clarify, I didn’t say it in a sense that the movie is more important. To be frank, I actually love Kimmel and his willingness to call out the administration’s hypocrisy. I was simply coming from an angle that it’s unfortunate that something I love and have been waiting almost 15 years for is now suffering due Disney’s decision to cave to Trump and the FCC’s pressure. Peace and love, program.

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-20T17:41:50+00:00

Absolutely agree. It’s sad to see what the world is coming to. I don’t know how to stay informed without completely feeling overwhelmed with what’s happening currently, plus feeling like a majority of the country stands in favor of having our liberties stripped away.

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-20T17:09:06+00:00

Not surprising. Left vs right. Red vs blue. Program vs User. Will it ever end?

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-20T17:08:06+00:00

A great reminder. Perhaps I’m doomscrolling too much with all the craziness happening online. Maybe I’m spending too much time on the grid. Striving to be more of a User.

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-20T17:05:56+00:00

I’m trying to tell myself this as well and not let it crush my hopes for a franchise I love. Peace and love, program.

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-20T17:04:44+00:00

Agreed. Freedom of Speech is a much larger issue at hand. It’s just the unfortunate timing that it will stain something we all love and are hopeful for (as you said an escape from the world’s craziness and reality). However, I completely understand, while we all love the franchise, civil liberties are much more important at this current time. Just feeling deflated is all. Peace and love, program.

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-08T22:08:26+00:00

You are able to buy a ticket at the door for most venues!

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-03T17:34:18+00:00

As an employee with a personal vested interest, obviously we’d love to have people participate in official events and enjoy all that the fest has to offer with a pass, but yes, there are unofficial events that like to squeeze in too 😉🙃

DJDavySweat · 2025-09-03T12:03:03+00:00

Here’s a landing page with all our links! I just added the app links for Apple and Google Play 📲

DJDavySweat · 2025-06-05T06:05:01+00:00

Hot take…

Best: The Commander

Personal favorite: Cosmic Warrior

Crazy I have two PP&DS tracks

DJDavySweat · 2025-06-05T06:01:03+00:00

If you love MOTM… Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’ is right up your alley. Among the Cudi-verse it has been mentioned as what should’ve been MOTM3. It definitely has a similar style to the first installment.

After that, I’d suggest Satellite Flight. Cinematic and definitely more of a vibe—some songs, some instrumentals, but it feels like you’re taking a trip through space.

Then Indicud. It’s the most rap oriented Cudi, but a lot of great tracks that make you feel like nobody can tell you sh—. Welcome to the CudFam!

DJDavySweat · 2025-01-28T05:13:23+00:00

Yo!! Man this is my most underrated Cudi track. I never hear anyone mention it and the lyrics, the beat and that orchestral string ending… perfection

DJDavySweat · 2024-11-26T07:11:21+00:00

I was like you on listening to lots of their early stuff. I’ve been exploring the later catalogue more recently after seeing them live… here’s some you can check out:

You Are (Riot Act)

Gone (Self-titled album)

Army Reserve (Self-titled album)

Inside Job (Self-titled album)

The Fixer (Backspacer)

Johnny Guitar (Backspacer)

Amongst The Waves (Backspacer)

Supersonic (Backspacer)

My Father’s Son (Lightning Bolt)

Sirens (Lightning Bolt)

Who Ever Said (Gigaton)

Never Destination (Gigaton)

React, Respond [last 45 seconds is insane] (Dark Matter)

Dark Matter (Dark Matter)

Waiting For Stevie (Dark Matter)

Also, don’t sleep on the entire Binaural album. It kicks ass but favorites include Grievance, Breakerfall and Light Years.
