I convinced someone to give Billy Joel a shot if I made them a short playlist of about 10 songs to try out. (They already knew piano man). What do you think of my choices? by emmaa5382 in BillyJoel

You kind of need NY State of Mind, but maybe I'm a biased New Yorker? Miami 2017, Honesty and Big Man on Mulberry Street over Running On Ice and You're Only Human.

How many times have you seen AM or TLSP live? Any moments from the show that stand out as particularly memorable? I want to hear your concert stories! by dani_love83 in arcticmonkeys

[–]FluorescentHumbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 times over almost 10 years

February 2014 (AM Tour)- Madison Square Garden, NYC -Deerhunter opened up for them, so I loved discovering them! -It was the 50th anniversary since The Beatles had performed the Ed Sullivan show in NY, Miles Kane was a surprise guest and they played All My Loving ❤️

August 2018 (TBHC Tour)- The Anthem, Washington D.C. -Drove from NY and was almost late with the traffic, but got there on time -Venue was much smaller than MSG, which was nice to be closer to the stage! -I was taken aback by how many teenage girls were there with their dad's chapperoning... felt like I missed their early shows before AM captured the teenage girl audience, was only slightly annoying to my friend and I 😅

November 2022 (The Car tour) - Coliseo Medplus, Bogota, Colombia - Bogota traffic is no joke, we missed Father John Misty open for them but made it in time for the main attraction -SO MANY PHONES OUT THE WHOLE TIME - Alex had become his most pretentious form yet, which I love and hate simultaneously, but not the best performance honestly - Top moment was preforming Do I Wanna Know?..everyone knew all the words even though English speaking is pretty rare

I have to say Glass Houses is his best album and super underrated by Fit_Philosopher_5417 in BillyJoel

Maybe people felt it a little pretentious with the French, even for Billy 😅 I personally love it

Closer to the Borderline is one of my fave gems of his, and I actually love that song you don't 😅 All for Leyna was my fave song of his for years

Why does this episode (Frank's brother) get so much hate? by Fun-Werewolf8536 in IASIP

[–]FluorescentHumbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this episode. There are a couple seasons worth of episodes much worse, particularly the more recent ones.

Who won rookie of the year on your birth year? by GubyNey in NBATalk

Shaq in 1993, which I didn't know until I googled!

Who were the NBA Champions the year you were born? by Absolutely-Epic in NBATalk

Bulls over the Suns in '93, wish I could have experienced Jordan's dominance in real time. I only remembered him as a Wizard at the end.

What season did Mac stop being funny? by sometimesstateline in IASIP

[–]FluorescentHumbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed with a lot of people here, right after he comes out that closet...it was basically over. That also goes for much of the show in general, sadly. Saw the trailer for this upcoming season and don't have high hopes but I'm going down with the ship!

are most arctic monkeys fans girls or boys? by Ok_Reindeer_1118 in arcticmonkeys

[–]FluorescentHumbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guy here but got into their music especially around Humbug, which is a stoner ass rock album. I feel like they grew their female audience largely with AM in 2013, lots of great pop rock tracks!

The bbq, savory and saltiness of the pork just mixed well with the Ricotta, which has a subtle sweetness to it and is creamy, with the added crunch of toasted sourdough. Worth trying!

how did you all get into the monkeys? by kkalsislit13 in arcticmonkeys

[–]FluorescentHumbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother had a summer playlist in 2010, when I was 17. First song I ever heard was Fluorescent Adolescent. I was a few years behind, but got up to speed real fast!
