food and drinks consumed in a movie theater doesn't really go into your body. it goes into your movie theater body which is separate & holy and harm-proof
I think one of the saddest things about modern childhood is the loss of cartoons as inheritance. I grew up watching Scooby-Doo reruns decades after it first aired. Kids today have more content than ever, but perhaps less shared cultural inheritance across generations.
It is with so much love and gratitude and exhaustion and pride that I say goodbye to the great divide tour in North America. It was every dream I ever had and every mountaintop I have ever wanted to stand upon. Before this summer I haven’t ever really felt like I belonged anywhere, and now I feel like I’ve finally found a home on these stages, in front of you all, playing these songs and watching you sing them back to me. Thank you to every single fan and every venue. I couldn’t have done this without the help of so many hardworking crew, band members, security, venue staff and local crew.
I am massively thankful to Annabelle and Gigi, who constantly inspire me and restore my faith in the power of songwriting and kindness. You both carry an immense capacity for both, without sacrificing the other. I am in awe of your talent. Friends for life.
To my fans. I’ll see you all again soon and will be here as long as you have me
