    $150+ for nosebleed tickets to a folk-pop show is wild. hopefully he has some type of big production with that ticket price.

    a couple friends got field tickets in Toronto for $325 USD each.

    Can someone explain to me if this means I should not purchase tix for this on Stubhub? What should I do if I missed out on initial on sale?

    you'll be fine. resellers have ways around this. also, I believe his statement only refers to tickets on TM's branded ticket resale platform will have these limitations but can be sold regularly through seat geek, stub hub, etc.

    American Cars is sick. This album is going to rule.

    I'm about a third of the way through this (very long) album and honestly I am kinda surprised with it, it's waay more etheral and moody than I expected, I'm vibing

    Oh my god All Them Horses is a stunner. Is that Noah on the chorus or JV?

    Really liked my first listen to this. Even though it is very, very long.

    Last two tracks are great. Felt a bit long but I was building a patio set and happy to have it last the whole time

  16. It’s about 80 minutes long which is long for an album but it all flowed so well that it felt like it was almost a movie more than its just “17 songs.” Taylor Swift’s last couple albums felt sooo much longer to me.

    this album was really great. A lot more laid back than I expected. Crazy how brutally honest he gets about his family on this. Just really great stuff front to back.

    I think I’m just tired of supersized albums. Stick Season is also way too long.

    It’s fine and it’ll def sell well with his fanbase, lyrics are the strongest part.

    I have no problem with artists doing long records, but PLEASE give us some sonic variations in the music, everything here sounds too similar. Zach Bryan does the same thing…I don’t need 80-90mins of slow to mid tempo folk. Go the FJM route and get a little weird sometimes.

    Great album but I agree with others here that it's too long. But there's enough great stuff sprinkled throughout that It kept me interested the whole way through. Though I'm not sure I'll ever listen to this start to finish ever again.

    The singles are stunning. Outside of that my favorites were Downfall, End of August, All Them Horses, and Headed North.

    I think the problem, often, is that the first half of albums like this feels well considered, and is typically where the best songs are, and then the back half just becomes a little jumbled/repetitive. In this case, it feels like he had 3-4 different options for closers and decided to just stack them at the end rather than pick one. There are no songs I dislike on early listens, but I definitely start to check out after "Porch Light."

    First listen definitely pretty pedestrian and samey. American Cars definitely the standout but that feels like 3 hours ago.

    Wow! I'm really banging my head

    Lyrics are all great, as we've come to expect with Noah, but this does feel like the case of nothing left on the cutting room floor...which is wild because we know at least one song from the Fenway show was absolutely left off of this record. Would've appreciated the length in runtime a little bit more if some of these songs were included on a deluxe or something instead.

    Right because we are probably getting another 5+ songs on a deluxe eventually too...
