Vheissu show was so bad ass Like moths to flame / stand and feel your worth we’re cool to see live. B Sides slayed. Weird they closed with words in the water as the encore. Didn’t anticipate enjoying it as much as I did. Holy Fawn is so polished for an opener. Don’t understand drug church. MWY was a bit meh. singer seemed a little off his game.
I'm surprised that played Words in the Water. I thought Dustin was in a different place now personally. I really like that song, though. Would be cool to hear it live.
I mean, you don’t always have to be in the same place you were to sing that song years later. also, I can easily still see Dustin feeling those lyrics. I think perspective on some of the phrasing is a bit different potentially. But the heart of the song totally fits. someone said they thought A Branch in the River and maybe another song negated Words in the Water and I have never understood that.
I love Words in the Water even though I don’t relate to the lyrics. I was really happy to see them play it a few weeks ago.
He actually just said on his last CTF podcast that it’s currently his favorite song he’s ever written Or at least the first verse. I forgot exactly what he said
Sort of felt like I was transported back in time to 2005. I'm usually pretty into heavy music but it felt strangely aggro / fake machismo My wife was also not into it so that prob didn't help my judgement.
It was really great, just not what I expected. The crowd was chomping at the bit for an Artist song, then they went the complete other way
I could get that vibe from Drug Church I suppose but it seems super tongue in cheek to me. I dug their performance.
Interesting. I guess I could see that. I was a fan going in, and I listen to the singer's podcast every week, so I guess my whole perspective is different. Have you ever heard their records?
I like Words in the Water, but I completely understand the distaste for it because of the lyrics. I know a few people who are turned off from that whole album because of how on the nose the lyrics are at times, Words in the Water being the most obvious example
