The Wonder Years Band • Page 160

It’s awesome but kind of worried the album isn’t coming out till September and by then the hype will be dead.

 

I don't really worry about those things. They'll work themselves out.

 

glad I'm not the only one who goes through the pain of not overplaying all the singles to listen to the whole thing...but goddamn the wait sucks

 

Yea, for an album that I'm awaiting and KNOW I'm going to love. I'm going to hold off on listening to any of these songs again until I get them in the context of the album. Especially with the Wonder Years, where I find their albums to really connect song to song.

 

I know this is unrelated and not sure if it’s allowed.

but anyone want two tickets to the Boston Aaron West show tonight? The show is 18+ at Brighton Music Hall. My friend has Covid and I’ve been exposed so we’re just trying to find a good home for them

edit:seemingly claimed

 

Borderline criminal that Sister Cities is the worst-rated non-Get Stoked on It! TWY release (at least on RYM)

 

Absolute nonsense, and I say that as someone that didn’t initially like SC

 

That person nick’s replying to seems annoying

 

Even if they did, I don’t really care. This blue checkmark discourse is exhausting.

 

going out of your way to replace “th” in words with “þ” is obnoxious

 

Is that even a thing? Never seen that before

 

So Thorn Truther?

 

One of my good friends lol

 

Also, let's use our fucking brains a little bit. Does it seem likely the band can afford something that's $1000 a month? I doubt even Hopeless could afford something that frivolous.

 

I think I've blocked out so much of this Twitter checkmark stuff I must have missed THE GOLD CHECKMARK IS $1000 A MONTH??

 

Yeah and apparently if they don’t accept your application for gold they still keep your $1000 which is whack

Also people are suspecting they got gold because the Twitter people are dumbasses and think that account belongs to the TV show which is probably true

 

there is no way even this relatively successful band is paying a grand a month for that shit, come on lol

 

Doesnt seem far fetched.

 

do we know when / how the RSD burst & decay live will be released?? I think the website said RSD first

 

I grabbed one when Newbury Comics listed their extras online yesterday, but most places seem to be sold out now. Your best bet might be to grab one on Discogs. There are a couple now for just over the original price. I don't think they've re-pressed the previous RSD releases.

 

It's billed as an RSD exclusive, but my old standby record store looks like they have some copies available:

Happy 10th Birthday to The Greatest Generation!

 

some days I think it's the best Wonder Years record and sometimes I think that's THGOF, but this was my favourite album of 2013 by absolute miles. happy 10th.
