man I mean just. the SMFS album lettering is made of clay. the cover art is an actual physical painting. there's a lot less fx on the album as a whole than Mania (which is NOT a knock on my bbg Mania btw, just pointing out the different approach) or even SRAR and ABAP. the songs sound basically the same live as they do on the record because the production is so minimal. they have a huge vinyl dog head onstage with them, that they touch and interact with and talk to (and, in Pete's case, get eaten by). the attic scene is made by lowering a piece of rigging to literally make the stage smaller. there's actually a LOT of sets especially comparatively to their previous tours, the rigging around the stage is done up almost as a physical frame for it. they only have one screen onstage and it's small, its purpose is to be the 8-ball and to add a little bit of texture to the wider design. the backdrops, even the new desert scene for 2ourdust, are physical backdrops — one of which was made by one of Pete's kids — not LED or projections. the album title is made of clay. it's about existing in the world, making things so you feel alive, making the world a little more fuckin weird! do you get it yet?
#this has been in my drafts for a while and i meant to post it right after my show but. ough#pete said the thing about make weird art and he mentioned bracelets and i had made SO MANY bracelets#there was a kid maybe 11ish in the row behind me and i turned around during fake out to give her my fake out bracelet#and like. at the end pete had everybody clap for the venue and tech crew and that nearly made me cry#make the world a weirder place… the physical tactile things MATTER#she speaks!#fob#fall out boy#2ourdust#my show
