one of the hardest parts of being a musician has to be singing your most depressing soul wrenching song on stage while a human mountain in a security shirt stands five feet away stone faced silently judging both you and the entire crowd that came to see you

the soldier returns this week and i can finally take off my victorian mourning veil

it’s okay ryan we understand why you’re not a big fan of karaoke now pls never do that again

VAN MCCANN ALIVE AND DUE TO LAND ON BRITISH SOIL WITHIN 24 HOURS

Van walks on stage with a ankle monitor and a three dot face tattoo

we’re seeing van mccann today. we’re about to find out if he cut his hair and if he’s still loyal to the black skinny jeans. we’re going to see him moving and breathing. might see a smile too. he actually exists and isn’t just some beautiful myth we bring up to get sad about

i’m going to throw up van mccann van mccann van mccann van mccann van mccann van mccann i’m going to throw up van mccann van mccann van mccann

THEYRE ON!

idk who Meg is but i’ll name my firstborn after her and thank the stars every day for her and send her a fruit basket in spirit

literally fuck it if they talk like actually fuck it if they try and get to us cause i’d deadass rather go blind than let you down on god

van mccann’s puka shell bracelet is literally enchanted if he takes it off he turns invisible and that’s why he can vanish for years without a trace and why he’s ALWAYS wearing it when he shows up again

oh okay that’s great

i love stan twt culture but i also feel like it sometimes fuels shitty behaviors and competitive dynamics which kinda ruins the fun of fandom because status and validation become prioritized over genuine appreciation and it sucks

bobby sounds like a choir of angels spent eternity crafting the most divine sound in heaven then handed it to a gruff dublin bloke as a cosmic joke on humanity

i love that inhaler finally got to cover a song that truly reflects their sound and shows off their full potential again

fontaines dc are fucking phenomenal and very few artists today balance intellect and emotion like them. they’ve always had a lot to say and a clear vision of what they stand for and they turn their truths into meaningful art and present it fearlessly ughh i’m so glad they exist

it’s so funny seeing eli on stage with his new hair still shaking his head to bounce his curls except there’s nothing left to bounce and now he just looks like he’s glitching mid song
