Tweeting about music since...really not that long ago.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Otherwise I've been seeing the least amount of live music as I have in the last 10 years because I'm older and more tired and shows are expensive.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Hello 3 followers, I took a little break from tweeting about music but I think I'm going to start again because music is still cool and I still have thoughts about it.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Also, I scooped a super cheap single day pass to Gov Ball just so I can see Odesza because obviously.

@SpikeRightMusic Legendary shirt also

I saw Blink182 at a few festivals in 2019 so I didn't realize they weren't together because that wasn't that long ago and I guess I'm supremely out of the loop.

After seeing 2 shows at Radio City this weekend I've come to admit that I don't love seeing live music there. The acoustics are incredible but it makes you feel so separate from the band. More like a Broadway show than a concert.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

I just want to be in that place where you know music so well without needing to listen to it 100 times first.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Sometimes I wish I could absorb new music into my brain without having to actually take the time to listen to it does that make any sense

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

I just want everyone to know that after being full on obsessed with Glass Animals throughout the pandemic, I went and saw them 4 times in 12 months and now I feel sated on Glass Animals thank you. It's been a journey.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

This new Glass Animals song is the absolute jam. https://t.co/MhBxxJRxAe

Should I go to Sunday of Boston Calling just to see them (and others, I suppose)? I think yes.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Rage Against the Machine with Run the Jewels was excellent. And now on the train ride home I listen to Emancipator as a palate cleanser.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

I went to Odesza again tonight and let me tell you, this show is so ridiculously good even when you ser it 2 nights in a row. I'm floored.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Tonight's the night! Odesza in Seattle. Let's. Gooooooooo.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

I hate taking videos at shows for more than a few seconds at a time because it takes me out of the moment but I loved last night so much I wanted to preserve it forever. Here's a (big!) snippet of Loyal.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

@alaurel_ Same! Had to go twice

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

There's maybe all of 8 artists I really want to see at Outside Lands and of course they all conflict with each other 😭

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Went to see Umphrey's with my mom this weekend and everything about it was great.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

@SpikeRightMusic Goose was incredible. It was relatively empty at their stage because they were on at the same time as Weezer and then Metallica but from the moment I walked over there it was just a crowd of people having this wild dance party it was amazing.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Boston Calling yesterday was so much fun and also the worst sound I've ever heard at a festival. It was so quiet that it was awkward. So many performances were like background music.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

I saw: Cults, Japanese Breakfast, Modest Mouse, Glass Animals, Weezer, Goose, Metallica. From the moment I arrived I had 0 breaks in the music schedule of what I wanted to see.

[Arielle @HeyElleForte]

Loved that they had sunscreen dispensers though! It was hot AF.
