Get Out is a banger.

I haven't exactly made a secret of enjoying Chvrches, so I'm not sure why liking that song in particular is blackmail material.

You have Your Own Way with words

 

[Hewson]

you have your own way with words

 

[Axver]

Oh FUCK.

I didn't even, um, get that.

I clearly have no experience with those songs.

 

[Hewson]

Oh FUCK.

I didn't even, um, get that.

I clearly have no experience with those songs.

Aaah aah

 

[bono_212]

I'm still lost.

 

[Hewson]

I'm still lost.

Maybe that's cause you can't get out of your own way.

Someone should make that quote their siggie.

Oooooohhhh!!

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Wait since when was it not cool to admit to liking CHVRCHES?

I’ll nevar b cool.

 

[corianderstem]

I love Chvrches. Looking forward to the new album, even if it's just more songs in their usual vein.

I'm quoting you so in the future I can remind you of one of the many reasons why I like you.

 

[corianderstem]

You must have a 10-page Word doc now full of those reminders, right?

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Yes.

I’m listening to CHVRCHES now thanks guys. Warning Call.

It’s a banger.

 

[IWasBored]

I still read their name as chavurches, but their Get Out song is good but the u2 one is embarrassing (that was the joke right?).

Yes you got the joke, unlike our resident rocket scientist.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Yes you got the joke, unlike our resident rocket scientist.

I got the joke dummyhead. There were more comments than just your running joke. It’s the little things people have to say.

 

[bono_212]

Hewson, I have a feeling he doesn't have a word doc for you .

 

[Hewson]

Hewson, I have a feeling he doesn't have a word doc for you .

And he called me dummyhead.

Spoiler

I'm more of an excel spreadsheet sort anyway

 

[LuckyNumber7]

I played the game and got no love. Sad!

 

[martha]

I got it!

Guys, who's been to the Morrocan Lounge? Do the shows start on time?

 

[gump]

I wish every venue would post stage times of openers and main acts on their website. This is possibly by biggest pet peeve with live shows.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

? the bands determine their own times. They just have a start/stop window.

 

[Axver]

What? Posting set times is very common in Australia/New Zealand.

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Posting the set times is a thing, but a venue being timely isn’t.

 

[Axver]

In my experience it's usually pretty close. Most clubs in Melbourne and Sydney (where I've seen more shows than I can count, probably about 600 combined?), bands hit the stage within a few minutes of their scheduled time. Usually the only thing that mucks it up is if less than 20 minutes were allowed for changeover.

Though the venue I go to the most in Wollongong is a fucking shocker. I don't believe a word of the times they post. Everywhere else in town is dependable, but this place... when it happens, it happens. And, of course, the one show when I decided to turn up half an hour late to avoid standing around awkwardly, the bands started on time and I missed the first act, who I was curious about.

 

[Mack_Again]

I think Mitski hit the stage fair early when I was at her show but the other math rock show I went to went on so long, I got out the venue by, like, 10:30 or something

 

[Kieran McConville]

Wouldn't it be funny if someone started a band called Megachvrches as a play on Chvrches.

Who called my megachvrch.
