the thing about ajr is by golly they are gonna put on a show that will move and engage and delight me. without fail. even exhausted and travel weary and kind of generally disillusioned and not super interested in doing anything. even thinking eh maybe i don't even want to go before i got there. even thinking this album was good i liked it but it's definitely not my favorite i haven't really listened to like half of the songs very much since it came out. they just! from the first moment had my full attention again. my full buy in. i was there and i was in it and i didn't want to be anywhere else and i didn't want it to end. and that can be kinda hard to achieve for me lately. so thank you to ajr. and thank you times one thousand to my sister for making me get into this band and making this a special thing we've shared for eight years and five plus albums and five tours. because at the end of the day it's you and me dude. crying and screaming and singing the original bridge to sober up that no one else seems to know and laughing and making jokes between songs and tossing back popcorn and high noons and remembering our first ajr show with big dark exes scrawled on our hands and ordering nachos at the bar three people down from the band because the venue was small and the vibe was just like that. even in an arena where we are two among thousands. in a way for us the vibe is still just like that.
#this is a diary entry but if u read it that's cool#ajr#post#i love that at every show they talk about the times they've been in that place before#because we saw them at the merriweather post pavillion in 2022 and they talked about our show at fucking jammin java in 2017#and in pgh they list all the places we've seen them#and it's so wild and fun to walk through that journey with them when it's our journey too#anyway hell yeah#also while we are on the subject#ajr play alice by the hudson live challenge#lilly
