We’d like to apologize to our neighbors in advance for how obnoxious we will be when Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour (Taylor's Version) drops in ONE WEEK!

If you can relate, drop a heart (or 13) for the era you’ll be singing along to the loudest. 💚💛💜♥️🩵🖤🩷🩶🤎💙

So guys… I finally just watched the Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii movie and…. OMGGGGGGGG IT WAS SO FREAKING GOOD!!!!!!!

I was completely entranced and captivated while watching this movie; it was so magical seeing them play, and it was filmed so beautifully!!! I just adore how the camera never was still; it was always moving and switching positions and sometimes was even in sync to the music!! And I just adore how they included footage from Pompeii as well (the mosaics, Mount Vesuvius, the old architecture…). What made it even better was seeing how the band themselves enjoyed it too! I could see in all the songs they were completely vibing (especially Nick and Rick). I am still jittery and full of adrenaline writing this… Genuinely one of the best, if not the best, concert movie I’ve ever seen!!!!

Here are my fav moments (from the top of my head)

The spinning camera whenever the cameras really focused on Nick

The eye contact Nick held with the rest of the band in some moments

Roger banging the gong and cymbals like a madman in A Saucerful of Secrets

Just, the entirety of Echoes Part 1 and how it was filmed (especially when they did the crazy cuts during the groovy part and those short cuts to just seeing Roger and David play)

Rick and David petting Mademoiselle Nobs (it was so cute!!!)

Seeing everyone just completely entranced and vibing in the celestial voices part of A Saucerful of Secrets

How the camera switches between Rick and David singing in both echoes parts

How Nick loses a drum stick during One of These Days

How the footage was slowed just before the beat drop in One of These Days

Showing Nick playing the drums from multiple angles repeated across the entire screen in One of These days

The slow pan during the groovy part of Echoes (and during other songs as well)

Showing David playing the guitar repeated across the screen during Echoes part 1

Showing Rick’s hands during echoes part 2 (piano players still amaze me; how do they do two drastically different things with each hand???)

The volcano erupting footage playing while Roger was screaming in CWTAE

Just, in general the footage they showed of Pompeii (like the artwork, statues, mosaics, nature, etc.)

The really fast cuts during Echoes’ groovy part and A Saucerful of Secrets

Just in general the amount of attention Nick got from the camera crew in this movie (it was so cool seeing him play, and Nick deserves more love!)

The spooky fog in STCFTHOTS

That one part where Rick plays piano with footage in the background in STCFTHOTS, as well as the parts with Nick playing with footage in the background

Them sitting on top of the amphitheater with Roger’s and David’s hands being really close

Since I watched the 1974 theatrical version, I also liked the interviews with Roger, David, and Nick

The banter the band had in the recording studios

When Nick repeatedly says he doesn’t want crust with his pie

Rick playing piano in Us and Them

David playing the guitar parts of Brain damage and having to do multiple takes (really shows how they worked in the studio)

Roger noodling with the synth looking all pretty like (at least to me) in On The Run

Roger playing/recording the bass part to Eclipse with (possibly) David looming in the background and watching

Roger looking over David’s shoulder trying to see what magazine he’s reading and Nick trying to do the same before quickly giving up (in Us and Them)

And lastly, all the parts in the movie where it shows the band playing while they’re all huddled up and close to each other with footage playing in the background

Sorry for rambling… I was so excited after watching this that I just felt like writing down this post…

Btw, this is where I watched the movie: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyGHs2yXwu1S_JEOpW3vlFeXFla449SLs&si=wEOTAQbgzJRQ9Rvi

Apparently it’s the best version out there…

''As of Monday, per EntTelligence, there were more than 4,200 showtimes “sold out” out of 13,000 showtimes or 32%, which is massive for the first evening of a tentpole.

Do you know how many showtimes were “sold out” on Barbie‘s first night of previews? 500. (Barbie‘s opening weekend was $162M off a first day/previews of $70.5M). Spider-Man: No Way Home, which had an opening of $260.1M off a Friday/previews of $121.9M in 2021, only had 18% of its Thursday night showtimes sold out. All sellouts here are compared four days before each film’s first night. One of every three showtimes is sold out for Eras Concert on opening day.

All sellouts here are compared four days before each film’s first night.

Current top-selling cities for The Eras Tour concert film are New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia.'' - Via Deadline

This year, I've watched an unusually large number of concert recordings, which I often find convenient to have on while I write emails or otherwise work. Most recently, it's helped me rediscover the love for Mylène Farmer, a French music star that I sometimes think of as adjacent to my love for Kate Bush because she's so quirky.

These images are from Mylène Farmer : Avant que l’ombre… à Bercy, released in 2006 just after my high school years when my fandom for her peaked.

About last night: It was Hollywood, "Stop Making Sense," and Talking Heads.

By most accounts, Talking Heads’ 1984 concert film "Stop Making Sense" is considered by many "a cinematic and musical masterpiece." (On many critics' and musicians' lists, the film and recording are viewed as the best concert movie and record...ever.)

Ahead of a new version's release on Blu-ray, fans were treated to a screening of it last night at Hollywood’s Pantages Theatre—where it was originally shot over four nights. It included a Q&A led by Andy Richter with the members of Talking Heads: David Byrne, Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth and Jerry Harrison. The chat was filled with recollections of the original shoot(s), the band's influences, and their individual takes on the film's place in popular culture.

In addition to the chat with the band and the film's screening (which was more like a religious revival meeting with dancing in the aisles, screaming, sing-a-longs, hands-raised-to-Heaven, etc.). the band, Blondshell, played “Thank You for Sending Me an Angel,” from the "Everyone’s Getting Involved" tribute album.
