Actual Real Life Update that is not just ranting.
- I am currently typing this at a Panera Bread restaurant like it was 2009.
- I got a Nine Inch Nails ticket! I go next week! This is the first time I have seen NIN live since the disastrous show at Fair Park in 1995, when the opening act was The Melvins, and Trent Reznor almost didn't go on because some assholes in the pit were heckling and throwing things at The Melvins. (I was in the stands, I didn't do it.)
Someone posted about it on reddit here. And yeah, that's pretty much what happened.
- The last "goth show" and concert I went to previous to this one was the Sisters Of Mercy in October 2024. And goddamn it, we are getting old. It was like the Gothic Old Folks Home turned out for that one. I imagine I'll see a lot of familiar faces at the NIN show, too.
- I'm also going to see Carpenter Brut in May. Which is Gothic Synthwave.
