Guess I have one album to look forward to in 2017 so far.

Yeeeaahh, I was right. $270 for cheap tickets. After being spoiled with "cheap" bands, I can't ever subconsciously spend $270 on tickets. $90 for a double show to see Sigur Ros was already pushing it enough for me.

Those prices are bullshit. I don't just mean in the sense of being frustrating, I mean in the sense that people are actively trying to deceive you. What you're encountering is ticket scalpers. I've seen Radiohead at Key Arena and IIRC it cost $65.

Always liked the album, but inevitably skipped past a lot of the songs because of how long it is. But man, there are some amazing songs on here that I somehow overlooked until this week. Muzzle, Thru The Eyes of Ruby, An Ode To No One, Love, Cupid De Locke, In The Arms of Sleep...
Might start to rival Siamese Dream as my top Smashing Pumpkins album.

Love is one of my favorite Smashing Pumpkins songs period.

The show is pretty appropriate quirky, too, as would be expected if you know anything about the concept. I don't know the source material itself, but I watched the movie. I think the series is pretty good. Definitely an acquired test, but yeah.

As someone who read all 15 books as a kid, I thought the series did a pretty decent job at adapting them. Many of the narrator's asides about grammar and other deadpan comments were taken word-for-word from the books. I'm looking forward to seeing Books 5-9 adapted in Season 2.

I like the theme song, too. But I did NOT expect the series to end in a musical piece, and a good one at that, so it was trippy. Its so fittingly dark for the, you know, the fact that this may be a quirky story, and even some comedy, but its kind of...dark. These kids parents die and get chased around everywhere.As someone who read all 15 books as a kid, I thought the series did a pretty decent job at adapting them.

I never read the books, but I saw the movie, so I decided to watch the show. I can see why people didn't like the movie now. But I was young when I saw the movie.
What amazes me is how much the actress they got for Violet looks exactly like the one in the old movie. Just...actually appropriately aged (She's actually younger than Violet. Which is a shock in Hollywood casting)
Also, apparently the author had a huge part in the show. He wrote 5 episodes, was executive producer, and even did music for it, so...that helps. It almost ALWAYS helps when the author has heavy input.
And yes, my sister and I just finished watching it today, which is why I'm talking about it. Definitely an acquired taste.
