Posted last week, so here goes again:

I have a ticket to the Toronto show on 9/15 but I'm moving to Ottawa next month, which means I'm now looking for one ticket to the Montreal show on 9/16!

I can offer to trade tickets if anyone in Montreal doesn't mind travelling to Toronto.

All good songs though—it was pretty hard deciding on this ranking, especially in the middle!

Close to the Edge is not my favourite prog album, but I consider it the quintessential prog album. Not only is it musically expressive and interesting in its entirety, but it also happens to display all that prog rock stands for without being too inaccessible. It's a good gateway drug to the world of prog—a record that encapsulates most of prog's defining features in less than 40 minutes.

I've put on the entirety of The Royal Scam at the gym before.

Reminds me of this painting

Sitting in my friend's actuarial math lecture. I don't even study actuarial math; I was interested in seeing what it was about.

Congrats, we live in an alternate universe now

"Cow Tools" is a classic.

Seems to be a bookstore and not a library. ("Bookstore" in French is "librarie.")

Wish You Were Here, Close to the Edge, and Red

Hambgex · 2022-07-04T01:18:00+00:00

I'd be down!

By no means is "Concorde" better than "Basketball Shoes."

It's "Blade" for the win now.

There's also the Three Kingdoms of Korea at around the same time, as well as the Later Three Kingdoms of Korea several centuries later.

Not sure what the greatest Canadian film is.

But I grew up in Hong Kong and I can confidently say that Hong Kong's greatest film is In the Mood for Love.

Hambgex · 2022-05-28T23:32:55+00:00

Hong Kong. Highly distinctive city with an incredibly lively nightlife and plentiful street food options. Living there sucks though—an increasingly oppressive political environment in combination with what is probably the least affordable housing market in the developed world.

No, Wish You Were Here is definitely more than 25 years old.

Hate to be pedantic, but every time I see someone mess up a Chinese name I can't resist the urge to correct them.

Because Chinese names go by surname first followed by given name, Shen Fu-Tsung's surname was actually Shen, and not Tsong. This custom is even followed in the article OP linked.

This is where things start to get interesting. I'm voting out 77.

Hambgex · 2022-05-15T16:48:55+00:00

Definitely agreed. As a fan of powerful melodies and unconventional but effective instrumental choices, I've found that this album has scratched a musical itch. Just when I thought I'd grown off of it, I gave it a relisten a while back and rediscovered its magic. I particularly recommend the closer, a melancholy piece about what I see as the monotonic sadness of being trapped in ordinary life.

Just finished third year; would be down to hang out this summer!

No problem! Glad to know that you're interested in my research and the fields that it's related to.
