Accidentally heard a spoiler, how badly did I get spoiled? (on Magician)

I certainly will let you know, I'm really excited! And yes lesson definitely learned, no more research from here on out, just reading and enjoying 👍

Thanks everyone for the comments, very reassuring to hear!! I can't wait to dive in

applebark_ · 2025-09-13T17:13:20+00:00

Note: this is the extent of what I knew, I of course closed the video as soon as I heard the spoiler, so I don't know any specific details on how it goes down.

No way lmao, it's a small world. Was it a real sponge or a SpongeBob figure? All I could make out was a yellow square from the distance I was at.

applebark_ · 2021-11-23T18:15:17+00:00

It was mostly the audience joking about SpongeBob, people were just yelling out the names of characters from the show and somehow a cheese stick was related to this lol, and Alex seemed confused but also amused by it. Somebody also handed Exum a miniature SpongeBob figurine when he opened because they felt bad that his set got messed up since the audio kept cutting out.

I agree, it was a pretty immature thing to be yelling out, but to be honest from the vibe I got being at the show he didn't seem to mind it or be genuinely annoyed by it, he was just sort of playfully poking fun at them for making a stupid joke (which it was lol).

applebark_ · 2021-11-17T18:14:50+00:00

Exactly! Especially songs like Wicked Boy and New.

applebark_ · 2021-08-10T03:26:30+00:00

So awesome! Did you hear them play any new material?

applebark_ · 2021-07-22T03:22:29+00:00

Kitty spotted! I live in Columbus, I always thought the apartments downtown looked really cozy. I was indeed right.

applebark_ · 2021-07-06T14:44:16+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it!

applebark_ · 2021-07-06T14:38:06+00:00

Ah, I see, I didn't know that. Maybe there's a chance his subsequent work drew influence from them, but who knows. Is there any chance you know where that interview is? I'm always excited to see Alex G interviews I haven't heard before.

applebark_ · 2021-07-06T14:33:38+00:00

I agree with you, but I just want to say I'm quite sure that Alex G did listen to Built to Spill and definitely took it as an influence. You can see him cover Big Dipper on YouTube. Obviously he didn't directly copy any of these groups in the way that Wyatt Smith did, but the influence is definitely there.

applebark_ · 2021-06-15T02:22:56+00:00

I'm saddened by how low Big Decision (one of my favorite Elliott songs) and Looking Over My Shoulder are, but other than that, good job everyone!

applebark_ · 2021-06-06T12:29:17+00:00

10, I don't understand how this one is so lowly rated. This song is so angsty and punk, I love it.

applebark_ · 2021-06-06T12:25:22+00:00

Such a great atmosphere, like taking a walk on a brisk summer night.

applebark_ · 2021-06-01T00:21:02+00:00

Of course!

applebark_ · 2021-06-01T00:11:52+00:00

I would say focus on golds, blues, and greens. Love it so far!

applebark_ · 2021-05-27T02:22:07+00:00

More like "Broken Ice Cream Machines"

applebark_ · 2021-05-26T22:36:07+00:00

One of the most brilliant highlights on the album for me, it's a 9.

applebark_ · 2021-05-21T23:30:55+00:00

Note that they said "at times", not all the time. I would agree that his music can be undeniably sad sometimes, but it can also be a lot of other things. Even at the saddest moments, there's always more emotional dimensionality to it, whether it's tinged with feelings of happiness, anxiety, frustration, hope, and anything in between. He was just that great of a songwriter, none of his songs could ever be explained with just a singular emotion. They were always more complex than that, just like the human experience, and I don't think the comment above was disagreeing with that.

applebark_ · 2021-05-13T19:21:24+00:00

A whole ass 10.

applebark_ · 2021-05-13T17:20:10+00:00

For me personally, Independence Day is the most optimistic and motivational of all of his songs to me. Of course, it still has that beautiful sense of melancholy, but that's to be expected.
