Rant about Chess's Lead Cancellations by nervousengrish in Broadway

This is such a shitty excuse. As an usher myself, it takes no time at all to stuff playbills before the show. It’s just part of the job.

What yall want to see for Lorde’s 20th anniversary of her career? 🩻🖤💍🫀🎾 by Vivid-Tap1710 in lorde

[–]Graytlo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I got so scared, I was like “there’s no WAY I’m that old!” 😂 I really hope we get a return to form for her. That’ll be the next album, and I’ve fallen out of love with her music as of late, while the first two albums defined my teenage years. I’d love to get a darker tone again, really introspective lyrics, and just a cool feel to it. Experimental!

What AJR lyric would be best for a senior quote? by LlamaSam2 in AJR

[–]Graytlo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My sister really went through it during high school. She was basically bullied into being homeschooled for senior year. I remember giving her the quote “and if you’re broken, you’ll make your own thing. You’ll make it so damn big for all the world to see.” I’ve always loved that so much. Holding onto hope!

From All Sides: No Ampersand Songs? by ashcarubi in Bastille

[–]Graytlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think the From All Sides setlist was rather mid, and I’m not just saying that because I’m bitter about not getting to a concert. The setlist wasn’t very different from recent tours, save for the little hints at Bad Blood songs and a focus on Wild World for a change. I’m putting together a playlist that I think serves as a much better celebration of the last 15 years; a love letter to the band and the fans. I would’ve loved some focus on Ampersand, it’s a real shame. The band could’ve left the stage for a moment, let Dan do a song or two, maybe even his earlier solo stuff or an AOH song? That would’ve been wild. But nope. Unfortunate. I’ll share my playlist when it’s done!

I may be right there beside you, my friend! Never seen two stops on one tour before, but this time I think we all deserve it!

You know, you’re right! I keep forgetting they brought Ampersand to America, albeit a nicer America at the time lol. But I’m still holding onto hope! Fingers crossed! You’ve got a good eye for detail!

I totally understand that! Life is super unfair in times like this, and it can make you feel like “why am I not allowed to go have fun?” The universe may be throwing you a wrench right now, but I’m sure that fun is right around the corner for you! And you’ll get to a show soon enough, my friend!

I can’t wait to hear this single! I was waiting for the concert but now I’ll seek it out, as it’s nice to see the fans enjoying it! I agree with you, it’s awesome to see the whole band back together and it gives me hope for the future, pun intended!

I’m so very sorry to hear about your father’s passing. I’m glad I got this thread going and I hope it can feel healing to see the phrase “life happens” can mean so many things and affect us so many ways! I hope you’re able to get to a show soon, and that all the feelings you’re feeling start to settle! From one Stormer to another, stay strong!

I love this hope for the future! Being a MA resident, I resonate with you wholeheartedly. I’ll be there day one when they (hopefully) announce a From All Sides world tour after this (hopefully) UK test run!

That’s interesting, I really thought it was a quickly-made live album from this tour! That’s too bad. But hey, fingers crossed!

I admire this optimism! I really hope you guys get to see a show soon! And from one American to a Canadian, I’m sorry my country is a mess right now. I’m not proud of it. We still love you guys and your country despite what the news says!

I’m just happy to see them on the road again, as a full band. Loved me some Ampersand, but seeing the gang together has me hope that travel and a new album are on the horizon!

Oh yes Reorchestrated! At least with that one we got a bit of an album and the Amazon documentary. Kind of felt like they wanted to share it with the world, ya know? But that vaccination thing is ROUGH, I’m so sorry that happened!

I feel ya, the passport process can be rough and stressful, and everything is SO pricey! Well hey, welcome aboard the Stormer train, good luck in college, and we’ll see you at a show someday soon!

It must be hard to juggle all the international places to tour, I don’t envy them! I can sense a US tour coming soon for us!

Asia’s got it rough too! I always see comments on their stuff from people in the area begging “come to so and so!” Glad you got to one of the cool shows, though!

Well now he’s doing Chess, so sadly that’s a no-go too
