@solid crag @zenith nova I’m tagging along with @teal niche for Meow Wolf/lunch around there I think, hope yall have a great time though !!!!!

[teal niche]

[solid crag]

welp so much for a group lunch

[zenith nova]

I’ll just solo it down south lol was worth the shot

[teal niche]

Sorry, I haven’t had Wahoo in nearly a decade

[zenith nova]

What is Wahoo?

[teal niche]

Seafood place, we can all grab lunch there if yall want

[solid crag]

hmm.... that I can go for

[teal niche]

[zenith nova]

I’m down! Fish tacos sounds great

[slender crescent]

OH MY FUCKING HFP

THE CUSTOM FLAG I GOT FOR ERA3 WAS SET TO MY OLD HOUSE

[zenith nova]

Is it the one on east Arizona Ave? @teal niche

[slender crescent]

WE COULDVE HAD THE FLAG

[solid crag]

there's one at park meadows lol

[zenith nova]

I’m already like 13 mins away from Aurora lmao

Denver is so hard for me to map in my head compared to other cities

[teal niche]

This one is closest to meow wolf so i think we should lock it in

[zenith nova]

280 S Union Blvd, Lakewood, CO 80228

[solid crag]

about 30 min drive for me, can you guys wait a bit?

[zenith nova]

It’s about 25 mins from where I’m at rn but omw!

[slender crescent]

i’m getting pho rn😔

[solid crag]

I would join but the group wants tacos

Or Idk now lol

[zenith nova]

Same lol

[silk geode]

there is no flag

[zenith nova]

I’ve locked in fish tacos. 20 mins away!

[slender crescent]

there is no prince live

[teal niche]

Yeah same!

[silk geode]

we got miracle* and pay no mind and beings i can live without the prince

there is no borealis

[dusk bison]

Hi! https://youtu.be/nvg0Utu8bzM?si=qWDhK2XlEBPy7Bb7

[solid crag]

heading out now

[zenith nova]

I’m just thankful we got mania and some hints at pop culture 😌

[teal niche]

On my way

[eternal swift]

I loved how he sprinkled in some keshi with love you back and dream dream dream

I did wish he played borealis though 🥹

[zenith nova]

I really want him to bring back Stay Awake

[eternal swift]

GFF live edit was too good

[silk geode]

i love that he played all ur luv and believe it

[zenith nova]

I know that won’t happen but I will keep wishing

[eternal swift]

Believe it needed an extended edit

[solid crag]

38 min eta due to recent crash on the route

[slender crescent]

LMAO WE JUST WITNESSED IT

ARE YOU IN LAKEWOOD??

[lofty saddle]

https://tenor.com/view/squid-game-oh-my-god-bruh-saleswoman-oh-my-god-bruh-gif-2398788864743270124

[lofty saddle]

was it in lyb too? I only found it in DDD and AUL

[slender crescent]

literally me

[zenith nova]

Am 5 minutes out but will wait up. I’m wearing a blue “Nantucket” shirt

[eternal swift]

Yeah he did some of it for all your Love as well

[lofty saddle]

no french flag.......

[slender crescent]

there is no french flag

[lofty saddle]

there is no prince live edit-

[eternal swift]

I’m really surprised he didn’t play prince

[lofty saddle]

apparently it was mixed in with imperium and mania

but it wasn't a standalone edit

[cosmic topaz]

Prince was the closest stylistically to this era, which I thought made it a shoe in but instead he chose not to do it

Which is valid

Let it be a GFF thing ig

[eternal swift]

Probably saving it for the tour

2 hour set pls Hugo

If smile live can be 2 hours victory can too 🆗

[solid crag]

Nah but heading in that direction for i-25

[jade light]

about 18 minutes away from the Wahoo's

[slender crescent]

oh shittt

[zenith nova]

I’m at Wahoo’s, sitting in the parking lot enjoying this absolutely perfect weather

Honestly the 4 days I’ve been here including the show last night, weather has been on point 👌

[solid crag]

24 min

[lofty saddle]

praying for something longer than even GFF Finale LOL, that's all I ask

smile live had longer breaks between songs, so it makes more sense for that to be 2 hours

[teal niche]

SAME

[cosmic topaz]

Stay awake is great. Not a Madeon song really, but I love it

It's on the line tbh

Bc the production is very Adventure (whereas a lot of other collabs/productions he does aren't really "about him" if that makes sense)

[slender crescent]

i can’t believe this was my first time seeing hugo like

[cosmic topaz]

But I'm also not used to seeing him credited on the artist line on streaming for it

[zenith nova]

Stay Awake’s drums is what really hits it home for me

Like they’re full on Adventure kicks & snares. I want more 🥹

[pure pulsar]

Idk, the production on Mary Jane Holland also feels Adventure coded to me

[cosmic topaz]

(I don't remember that one. Was it on art pop?)

[pure pulsar]

Yes

[zenith nova]

I jinxed it btw, possible rain hitting Denver today

[teal niche]

We here!

[zenith nova]

Hopefully I’m at the right one lmao

[solid crag]

@zenith nova around the corner now

[zenith nova]

Is this the address? If so I’m at the wrong one

1233 S Colorado Blvd, Denver, CO 80246

[teal niche]

yeah that’s the address

which one are you at?

[zenith nova]

Welp

[zenith nova]

This one 🫠

On my way but will be another 20 mins

Don’t wait up tho, I’ll join yall when I get there!

[solid crag]

No wonder you got there fast 😅

Just parked

[teal niche]

which one did you go to?

[solid crag]

The one on Colorado blvd

[teal niche]

oh, we’re here

[zenith nova]

5 minutes away

[lofty saddle]

if anyone's around Lakewood, MysteryMii and I are hitting up the Round1 around here in like 13 min

we'll be here for a couple hours if anyone wants to pull up

[solid crag]

Ooh.... thatll be my next stop after wahoo

[hybrid ermine]

https://youtu.be/2QyY8j5aeBY?si=0gUi1pa7BYeTra58
The audio on this one is best imo

[lofty saddle]

👀

[slender crescent]

if anyone has pictures of us together!! please send them my way❤️❤️❤️

[solid crag]

Round 1 in Littleton?

[lofty saddle]

yis

MysteryMii and I are walking around the mall, very interesting place

[hollow cipher]

Can I put my backpack in your car when you arrive? Apparently this Round1 doesn’t allow backpacks or other oversized bags (though it seemed like no one noticed when I was walking around in there)

[solid crag]

Its... uh... sadly a dead mall

[hollow cipher]

Hence why we found it interesting

[solid crag]

Sure! Tho eta for me is about 32 min

[lofty saddle]

I noticed 💀

[trim crypt]

https://youtu.be/_iHY8Aes-CA?si=kTjl87BXEl9vzcxU
this one has the best audio imo but the camera is a bit shaky at times

[hybrid ermine]

I dont have headphones to double check for like 7 more hours but this one sounds better to me

[hybrid ermine]

Compared to this

I'll try it when I have headphones

[eternal swift]

I’m surprised since you’re such a huge porter fan I would’ve assumed you seen good faith live

[eternal swift]

Win all the claw machines!

[bitter wren]

Just got done looking around meow wolf stoned for a few hours and I barely understood much but it was a blast

[lofty saddle]

nah I suck at crane games, that's why I stick to playing rhythm games when I'm at Round1 😅

[eternal swift]

I’m a claw machine addict 😭

[bitter wren]

It's time

[bitter wren]

I wanna go back to a round1 and play the japanese import games

Last one I went to was in Maine

Someday..

[slender crescent]

I WASNT TAPPED IN

[solid crag]

Parked outside of the cheesecake factory

[bitter wren]

I'm so upset I didn't, i went to shelter, nurture, smile, but not good faith

[pure pulsar]

There were a lot of markets Hugo never really visited outside of the original run in 2019. I have a handful of friends who are huge fans who missed out on Good Faith because they couldn’t make the only Boston date in 2019 lol

[bitter wren]

What the fuck there was a good faith forever in kansas city a few years ago there was no reason for me not to go

Dammit

I do remember watching the stream at firefly festival and taking pictures of my monitor like I was there

[lofty saddle]

we're chillin in the r1

[solid crag]

Gotcha

[hollow cipher]

Ok

Heading over now

[solid crag]

Ah... heading up now lmao

Meet you at the entrance

[bitter wren]

Damn I wish i had the free time to join

Trying in and out before i leave

[cosmic topaz]

Definitely do this if it's not accessible to you y'all

And remember: in n out always wins for one reason and one reason only

The price

[bitter wren]

True, very similar to cookout

The prices i mean lol

[eternal swift]

Gotta try it animal style

If you like your fries or burgers with sauce onions and cheese

[bitter wren]

i chickened out and just replaced the spread with ketchup because my autism ocd brain still likes sticking to one sauce
But shit was good

[pastel pumice]

With how many madeon people are at meow wolf they should have converted one kf the rooms to a madeon ARG room lol

[violet blade]

I’m giving away 2 tickets to the dischead dj show tonight if anyone can/wants to go 😄

[slender crescent]

if anyone is coming the afterparty come pay y’all’s respects

[silk geode]

if i was able to i'd desecrate it

i'm team hugo FUCK MADEON

[dawn stone]

oh my god... oh my god i wish i could

[manic quest]

i wish i was, this is my pov 😭

[lofty saddle]

🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿

[lofty saddle]

thanks for an amazing weekend, guys.

no lie, this was one of the best weekends of my life and I'll cherish these memories forever

you guys are the best ❤️

[vernal prairie]

Is there a consensus on best YouTube audio?

Gonna do a quick master of one before I start listening back

[craggy echo]

finally getting to watch this… the “this sucks” adds SO MUCH thank you

[teal niche]

aw, wish i could sign it 😭

[bitter wren]

I just looked back on my recordings and I think I might have some of the best audio for absolutely no reason

My car crash dummy clip has the best audio out of any recording I've listened to at the very least because I only checked that at the moment

The vocals are so clear

I'm driving home and I've been driving for like 9 hours so please excuse any wait but here is a preview that I just screen recorded of the video

[lofty saddle]

someday, my friend 😌

[pure pulsar]

https://youtu.be/_iHY8Aes-CA?si=zc8R8x9iECnfFyq7

I think this one

[bitter wren]

The intro had a few woos in it so I excluded that but otherwise this is really good

Let me see what else I can find

[pure pulsar]

That chorus bass is insane

[bitter wren]

oh i definitely also have the best Icarus but same thing applies to not having an intro but this is like 10 times better than others ive heard

probably posting more in #victory-live

[hardy temple]

This is the one everyone has been vibing with for sound https://youtu.be/nvg0Utu8bzM

[lament quiver]

devon my goat

[hardy temple]

Most of them are pretty close tho. Kinda bonkers that theres like literally a dozen of these

[craggy sundial]

Finally heading back to Dallas after the show. This RR show really hit the spot compared to my last GFF show. Massive shoutout to @slim moss for making my day last Friday and being the first Puertorican Madeon fan I’ve met abroad.

I will be recognized by some for being “that one black guy at the pre party with the Borealis sweater”. Having a solid fanbase like this one makes people feel seen, especially through music.

[rose forge]

Didn’t get to hang out with everyone in here too much but was an amazing experience at the show and with everyone I bumped into

[coral lichen]

At the airport 😔 goodbye gang have safe travels

[rose forge]

https://www.flydenver.com/security/den-reserve/

Gotta try this next time

[subtle flicker]

Same

[unique pebble]

Let’s gooo Puerto Rican Madeon fans, we exist 🙌🏻

Safe travels everyone leaving today

[slim moss]

Holy shit guys. This actually happened

[craggy sundial]

Ngl, seeing all the Madeoncord events made me want to get back on the DDJs. I might have to ask around for help

[vernal prairie]

I feel like this would be the best if it didn’t duck with the crowd noise

I’m about to drop Devon’s into my DAW I’ll put a drive link to the master when I finish if anyone wants it

[slim moss]

At the airport

Ugh I miss everyone so much already

[unique pebble]

Safe travels!

Me too

[pure pulsar]

In Newark, my connecting flight back home to Maine keeps getting delayed 😭😭😭

[lofty saddle]

come out to the DC or NY stop of the tour, we'll have a couple goobers with us :)

[zenith nova]

I have found the overpriced Aquafina’s

The sound test for whatever show is happening tonight… someone really out here blasting Jellyfish Jam at Red Rocks

[strong saffron]

https://youtu.be/jzKfBNnnGiM?si=gLeZbSZo13oWmE2x

Finally starting to upload what I got, I had a pretty decent spot behind the FOH tables

[slim moss]

You were really close to me lmao

[strong saffron]

I think the audio turned out ok too, although for some reason whenever I zoomed it switched mics or something

[strong saffron]

I was like the one solo person over there wearing the red text madeon shirt that was sold during GF era

[slim moss]

I remember I think

I was wearing a blue jumpsuit

[strong saffron]

Oh yeah I think I saw you

Kicking myself for not recording Car Crash Baby but I was feeling the vibes too hard

[slim moss]

Yea I was part of that whole group lol

Was a great spot to see the show

[strong saffron]

Oh the big group of like 6? Y'all were having a great time lol

[vernal prairie]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AoM_9QHoJwGrZxCgpC5ITx-F6-X39gyp?usp=sharing

master of Devon's show audio, wav and aif formats

if anyone has any notes lmk

[slim moss]

Yep. Everyone in that group had been at red rocks since 1pm at the latest iirc

We were ready for it

[strong saffron]

Oh wow, nice

I didn't get there until around 6

[slim moss]

I was out there hanging out since 11am

Had an awesome time

[hollow cipher]

At the airport right now

Flight’s been delayed nearly an hour

[craggy echo]

o7 get home safe

[slim moss]

Just boarded

[dawn stone]

safe travels!

[silk geode]

o7

[timber rivet]

when's madeon come on?

[craggy echo]

any day now just keep waiting!

[silk geode]

i think he plays after chromeo

[spring goblet]

what time are y'all getting there

it's my first time going so I'd like to gauge how early I need to be

[hollow cipher]

MY FLIGHT IS NOW DELAYED BY 2 HOURS

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AT THE SAN DIEGO AIRPORT THAT IS CAUSING THE INBOUND FLIGHT TO BE 2 HOURS AND 35 MINUTES LATE?

[craggy echo]

good luck

[silk geode]

how'd you get to san diego

that's one weird connection

OH

the flight from san diego is going to denver

[timber rivet]

filled the void of not getting a madeon red rocks shirt by spending $90 on red rocks merch

[hardy temple]

My fault

[hollow cipher]

Apparently, the plane has been in a maintenance hold since it left the gate.

In other news, the flight is so delayed that I’ve decided to put myself on standby for the next flight out to LGA (which isn’t having any delays)

[silk geode]

there is no plane :(

[pure pulsar]

Meet the plane!

[hardy temple]

They just let anybody play there now huh

[pure pulsar]

I guess, who the hell is “dead mouse” ??!

[hollow cipher]

I swear if I have to spend the night in the airport…

[unique pebble]

Hopefully not, may you get back safely!

[solid crag]

If it's a night at the airport, it better be Denver. Done it once, will do again. So many comfy spots to sleep besides the floor.

[solid crag]

Good luck.... Newark is ugh...

Thanks to the ATC shortage

[hollow cipher]

Least-delayed Newark flight

[solid crag]

You can thank the scheduled afternoon weather in Denver

[hollow cipher]

I already said it’s still in San Diego because of maintenance

It’s apparently only now just leaving

[solid crag]

Maintenance and well... eventually (hopefully not) weather knocking on wood

[hollow cipher]

The weather has been perfect both in Denver and San Diego

[zenith nova]

At the airport and have walked past people with a Forever hat and another person with a GFL shirt in TSA pre-check like 5 times now lol

[craggy echo]

i saw someone in the lion bomber while i was waiting for the train this morning

saw a lot more sleep token merch though apparently a ton of people went to that friday lol

[solid crag]

Rain is expected around 5pm.... if you're not in the air by then... there may be some delays

[pure pulsar]

Back in Maineeeeee, driving home

I missed my Dunks

[solid crag]

I mean... we got them here too 😅

[pure pulsar]

It’s not the sameeee

[solid crag]

Well the coffee is the same... been drinking it daily back in NJ.... its no different in CO

[pure pulsar]

The vibes are different 😭

[solid crag]

The donuts and food... yea theres a differences

[hollow cipher]

Update: Welp, I did not get on that flight (it was fully booked and only 3 people from the standby list were able to get on), so now I have to take my original flight that was massively delayed

[subtle flicker]

I was just re listening to the concert

They started la lune too early lmao

[manic quest]

Yesss

[slender crescent]

omg twin

[hollow cipher]

Well after massive delays, I’m almost on the plane:

[hollow cipher]

And after 6 hours I’m finally on the goddamn plane:

[silk geode]

safe travels

[hollow cipher]

If there was one silver lining, the flight is not completely full, and we got lucky with no one in the middle seat in my row.

[solid crag]

Best scenario.... door closed with no middle seater

Better would be the whole row or I call it the skycouch

[hollow cipher]

Ah yes the poor man’s flatbed seat

[hardy temple]

you're reheating the nachos you fed us in other server 2 hours ago

[hollow cipher]

I didn’t come up with the term I just heard it somewhere else a while back

[hardy temple]

so even then it was reheated. smh

have a good flight!

[coral lichen]

I went to sleep token in my home town like two weeks ago and then when I was in my hotel and in town Friday and I was like oh this is kinda funny

I was kinda curious about the people flying domestically for sleep token because they toured like almost every big American city

[craggy echo]

i noticed this too... there were people on my flight home with sleep token merch

they skipped nashville on their tour but did people not just go to atlanta instead? that's way closer than denver lol

then again i guess a 2.5 hour flight is faster than a 4 hour drive

🤷‍♀️

[coral lichen]

Is it really though once you have to do security and uber and everything though...

[slender crescent]

back in texassss

[coral lichen]

There were so many people in logic shirts at the airport too bc he was at red rocks Saturday

[slender crescent]

YEAH

[coral lichen]

Saturday my friend and I hiked around red rocks and she was like we should see whoever is here tonight and sit at the top to experience the venue and I was like I'm okay I think lol

[slender crescent]

btw if anyone had pictures of us please send them my way

[lofty saddle]

why ts look like a movie screenshot

[wary swallow]

because it is

[slender crescent]

NOT THIS ONR

[pastel pumice]

Finally home, thank you to everyone in this server who made my weekend more than unforgettable!!! Until the tour, love you all <333333

[hollow cipher]

[solid crag]

red eye flight?

[wary swallow]

PLEASE

[stiff rivet]

...does that mean you relate or you really want me there

[wintry bramble]

yess (first time catching one, hopefully ill sleep well)

[solid crag]

Don't mean to be a downer but when I did a red eye flight from Vegas to Newark.... 4hr flight with an eye mask and noise canceling headphone, completely undisturbed.... I still felt like shit throughout the whole day.
Of course you may have a different experience so I hope it's a pleasant one. 🙏

Hopefully you're not working the same day that youre arriving... did once from Denver to Philly on Frontier... I couldn't stay focus at work, I just flopped all over my desk

[wintry bramble]

yeah im flying to new york and have class at 9am, ill have to push thru until noon atleast 💀

[solid crag]

Better grab a gallon of coffee or choice of energy drink and buckle up for a long but short day

[wary swallow]

I WANT YOU THERE 😎

Anywho... till the next tour everyone, from your local Denver Madonger

[slim moss]

I miss everyone so much

[unique pebble]

Back at work and going to show my managers the videos lol

[slim moss]

I’m meeting a bunch of irls after work and I’m gonna do the same

[unique pebble]

Hell yeah!!

I showed my bf last night and he was like “this is cool” he has never heard any Madeon song ever. I’ll take him to the tour with me 😂

[solid crag]

Showed my coworkers some of my clips... theyre all surprised we weren't epileptic....

Cuz they got a headache watching it

[lofty saddle]

they not built for this life

[unique pebble]

Hugo really said everything BIG

And FLASHY

[wary swallow]

NO HEADACHES IN THE PROPER CONTEXT (seeing the show with your own eyes)

also photosensitive epilepsy is a small fraction of the already small fraction of the population who do have epilepsy

(source: friend with non-photosensitive epilepsy)

[solid crag]

BIG, FLASHY, POPSTAR

[unique pebble]

YEP

also where my fellow Red fans

[pure pulsar]

Juno is my fav, but mad respect for Red

I know it would’ve spoiled the surprise in the show, but I wish we would’ve gotten RED Rocks merch

[bitter wren]

I just now realized thinking about red that it would be impossible to have a real band playing because of him

[solid crag]

I mean.... security would've already body slam Red after they did the deed

[bitter wren]

The only way you could cosplay as red would be for like 5 seconds for a picture with a kid-under-a-trenchcoat style setup with a custom made like steel body frame to hold a tiki torch wick

Which wouldnt even work unless you're really small because red is the shortest band member

[wary swallow]

we haven't seen him standing next to the others for all we know he could be taller than juno

[teal niche]

Hi all! @jade light and I are home safe!

[unique pebble]

I already miss the show so much

I went back to work and was like ARGH

[solid crag]

The weekend felt like a dream

[pure pulsar]

So glad I’m off from work til the 11th (took extra time off to settle into my new place I moved into RIGHT before flying out lol)

[unique pebble]

Ohhh so smart!!

I spent the rest of the weekend at the bf's and went back to work today, dragging my feet

[jade light]

incredible sticker

[wary swallow]

no same

[bitter wren]

i wish i had work today 😭 i need money

i went into work this morning to see my schedule for the week and i wasnt there at all which like cool but HEY i need MONEY !!!

[unique pebble]

We could be watching Hugo and Glockeon on stage instead

[bitter wren]

I misread that in the worst possible way

[unique pebble]

LMAO

[stiff rivet]

I never expected post concert depression to hit THIS hard

https://tenor.com/view/amazing-world-of-gumball-gumball-crying-gumball-fast-forward-fast-forward-gif-dscify-gif-20832789

I was looking forward to this concert for pretty much a year and now it's over, I'm back to my life and wondering if I'll ever achieve my own dreams or be stuck in this monotony

Not to mention I can't even find any jobs in my major (film/TV), no one's called back

I'd want reassurance that everything will be ok but in this day and age that might not be possible

[unique pebble]

Wishing you the best of luck. Things may seem grim now, but don’t give up. It will come!

[tardy frost]

Yeah the post concert depression has been sooo rough. Yesterday especially I was in my feelings on the flight home. I knew it would be a fantastic show but I didn’t realize how much I needed it and the weekend in general. I came by myself and made some really cool friends too so the fact that I might not see them again for a long time has been doing a number on me fr

[wary swallow]

BUT HEY, NEW FRIENDS

[slim moss]

And it’s not like you’ll never talk to any of us again. There’s a reason this space exists

And the voice channels are always open, this server isnt just about madeon, his art is just the reason that brings us together

I’m also feeling it, and continuing to connect with the same people online is helping me get through this drop

[tardy frost]

Yeah you’re 100% right there! It just felt so incredible to go and immediately be able to vibe w everyone I talked to. Like it really felt comforting and absolutely reminded me how valuable being a part of community like that is

[slim moss]

Having been part of other communities in the past, it is very rare to have a community where everyone is that comfortable immediately, especially in real life. Seeing everyone happy and enjoying themselves and getting what they needed from the experience is such a special thing, especially since this was the first time many of us were seeing each other irl

If anything, it’s pushing me to want to create more opportunities for us to come together both online and irl

[solid crag]

I agree too. Albeit the show ended but not only am I looking forward to the next show but also meeting familiar faces and new friends in Denver. It was awesome to meet a bunch IRL from this group

[slim moss]

And I also wanna encourage everyone, you can do this too. When the tour gets announced, set up a meet up before the show at a restaurant or a bar. Make a community of madeon fans around you, and make it what you want and need

[wary swallow]

Friday was the first time I met AJ in person and it felt like seeing a friend after too long apart

[wintry bramble]

!! It was my first time watching a madeon show here & it just felt so incredible to see the community! everyone was so cheerful, welcoming & happy!

for context, I only watched him live once back in India 2 yrs ago. I have been a fan since 2016. I loved being able to experience red rocks with everyone here!! Def a core memory 🫶🫶

[lofty saddle]

what if we kissed in the daft punk alive 2007 room in fortnite

haha just kidding...
unless...?

[slim moss]

More than likely, you were the one person in your general area who had the privilege of traveling to see red rocks. You’ve already experienced the energy you want and need in your everyday life and there is no one better suited to bring that into your life than yourself

[wary swallow]

Dischead Jockeys Live Sequel 👀

[wary swallow]

reminds me of the hugo quote "you saved yourself, I was just the soundtrack"

[slim moss]

Finding a common interest is an easy part. Finding spaces, making time, fostering a healthy community; that’s the hard part

And I’ve seen it done well and I’ve seen it done poorly

But if you already have a good example of a space you felt totally comfortable in, it makes it easier to create and sustain that

[stiff rivet]

Bet?? I'd learn how to mix just to be there

As a dj I mean

[slim moss]

For the next monumental show for sure. I don’t the next one to be during the NA tour though, I want to encourage people to create their own local events for their own local community

And I will make sure this server does what it can to facilitate that

[wary swallow]

we don't know when, but it will happen

[pure pulsar]

I heard him say that to someone else after the 2022 GFF show in Philly and it’s stuck with me since

[wary swallow]

that'd be the source

[solid crag]

People should come visit Colorado more. I would love to show more people around, not just the city but really the outdoor stuff.

[cosmic topaz]

that quote is fucking metal and I want to remember it forever

[pure pulsar]

I’m hoping to make it out there at least once a year until I (hopefully) move out there

[tardy frost]

Yeah that’s definitely how it felt for me. As someone who’s long been a lurker in this server it’s really had me wanting to be more active in the community bc I had the best time this weekend. Like that feeling doesn’t always materialize so it’s important to recognize when it does

[pure pulsar]

^^^^^^ been a lurker myself, was so heartwarming being welcomed by everyone this weekend

[wary swallow]

mannnnnn why do my friends have to all live thousands of miles away from each other and me

[slim moss]

When the tour gets announced I’m making sure when I mention this the meetup threads in #announcements that people should use this as an opportunity to create irl community and plan something out around the show

Even if it’s meeting up in line to chat and get to know each other

[pure pulsar]

I’ll look into organizing something for Boston

[slim moss]

These past few months have shown to me how important it is to have a good group of people nearby who you are comfortable with and want to do things with each other

[tardy frost]

Manifesting a Kansas City date bc I would def love to help get a group together

[pure pulsar]

Also I’m 100% planning on flying out to the first date/wherever the biggest concentration of us might end up being, I really wanna hang out with y’all again

[unique pebble]

Yes!!!

I can help once a NYC date gets announced

Eagerly awaiting

[tardy frost]

Same lol one of the first things I said to myself after the concert was that I’d be back to Red Rocks anytime Madeon plays there bc it really was that special for me

[unique pebble]

I would like to go to a European date and hang with the European fan base too

[pure pulsar]

I’m planning on flying out to Denver too next time he plays there even if it’s at Mission or somewhere else lol

Hoping we get another Red Rocks show this era though

[slim moss]

I need the European fanbase to blow up and get as active as the U.S. one. Not enough Europeans in this server

[unique pebble]

Agreed!!

I would love to do a UK or France date, or anywhere else over there honestly

[pure pulsar]

Would be amazing getting to see him in France

[unique pebble]

I’d so be down!

[pure pulsar]

Been over to the UK once 3 years ago for my ex father-in-laws wedding, didn’t get to go see/experience much though lol

[unique pebble]

I do hope he does some South America dates too

[slim moss]

I don’t think I’ll be able to travel around for this NA tour, but for any monumental shows thereafter I will do everything in my power to be there

[unique pebble]

I’d love to meet ya! Hopefully one tour date

[slim moss]

Anything like the Mirage shows, LA Finale, and Frost shows or the GFF run, I’ll do my hardest to get there

[pure pulsar]

I’m manifesting the Sphere this era

[unique pebble]

Imagine Victory on the sphere, Jesus

[pure pulsar]

I think he has the potential to really gain some traction with this show. He nearly sold out Red Rocks while giving us BREADCRUMBS for 6 months leading up to it

Hoping he hits the festival circuit in 2026

[wary swallow]

PAPA
MORE MOVIE.

[hollow cipher]

Well since we didn’t get to see Sam do his live set at Red Rocks, I decided to go ahead with getting a ticket for his NYC show:

[hollow cipher]

I swear if he does Radio City this time…

[slim moss]

That may be the exception tbh

[hollow cipher]

I mean it would probably be a benefit for me because I live close enough to the venue

[craggy echo]

pleaseeeee give us madeon sphere

[pure pulsar]

I was pretty bummed out about that tbh - he threw down HARD though

[craggy echo]

possibly the only thing that could make me fly to vegas

[manic quest]

fun fact: he hasnt toured here but we already have group chats lol

[pure pulsar]

Where?

[wary swallow]

LatAm

[pure pulsar]

Damn, he hasn’t played a single live show there? That’s wild

[manic quest]

i mean he has

on 2013

we have like a gc for porter since his last show for nurture that works as a madeon gc too bc why not and i also have another gc for the entire of south america
theres also a gc for porter brasil that i know but im not in lol

[pure pulsar]

I feel so bad for y’all that you didn’t get Smile live

[slim moss]

Shoutout the madeon Latam WhatsApp I’m in, but never check

[pure pulsar]

It’s fucked that it was advertised and never delivered

[manic quest]

i read theres 2 groups.. idk why but i wont ask xD

[timber rivet]

put the sticker someone gave me on my laptop

[lament quiver]

@obsidian ledge

!!!

[obsidian ledge]

hi yes that was me

[wary swallow]

Hi! design remake by me! turned into a sticker by @obsidian ledge !

[obsidian ledge]

[wary swallow]

<WALL OF GUITAR SOUND>

[lament quiver]

we love a collab

guys i literally can’t stop listening to victory

help

[wary swallow]

I WAS VIBING TO CAR CRASH BABY AND THEN A VIDEO MEETING STARTED AT WORK

[lament quiver]

i NEED IT

[wary swallow]

I'M SO NEED VICTORY

[lament quiver]

car crash baby has been stuck in my head

the most

[wary swallow]

IS VICTORY JUST THE BAND NAME?

IS THE ALBUM CALLED SOMETHING ELSE?

ARE WE IN LOVE WITH HYPERROCK?

[lament quiver]

and revolution

yes

studio recordings of these songs are gonna go so hard in my car

[slim moss]

Real

[lament quiver]

how is it so good

all of them

i love all of them

that never happens

[wary swallow]

it's one hell of a sleeper-build of a song. It DOESN'T sound like what you'd think a Madeon track would sound like BUT IT STILL SOUNDS SO HUGO MADEON LECLERCQ

[lament quiver]

there’s always like a miss on an album or one you favor less but if they all go this hard i think it’ll be his best album yet (as much as i love good faith for many reasons)

[lament quiver]

i talked about it before but like… sometimes when artists genre switch it feels so disingenuous

but this feels SO hugo

it just feels true to him

[wary swallow]

holdon let me grab the screeshot

[lament quiver]

👁️

[obsidian ledge]

fairy do you live in here now

[slim moss]

I think this channel will be active for a long time

[lament quiver]

only on days that end in y

i can be more loud and annoying but i’m always lurking

and i live in madongers too wtf

:3

[obsidian ledge]

LMAO

[slim moss]

Same god. Even in GFF there are a few songs I just like and don’t love, but everything in VL I am obsessed with

[lament quiver]

i agree

[obsidian ledge]

I'm a #merch-discussion user.

yk

[lament quiver]

good faith is so beautiful and perfect but holy shit….

i think hugo may agree tbh

[slim moss]

I’m a #mod-chat user personally, and #victory-lore-updates occasionally

[lament quiver]

no access 😭

[wary swallow]

damn even i dont have AxS to that

[lament quiver]

beautifully said

he does it every time

he evolves but like

sometimes when artists do that i fucking hate it

[wary swallow]

I REALLY NEED TO MAKE MUSIC LIKE M3

[lament quiver]

the thing about him is that he does it so well and authentically

and the he new live edits like…

[wary swallow]

LIKE CARNALLY I NEED TO MAKE THIS KIND OF SOUND

[slim moss]

It’s beautiful and imperfect which adds to its beauty imo. Don’t think the era ended up the way anyone wanted it to be but I’m glad it is what it was

[lament quiver]

i was so curious what he would be able to do with them to fit the new aesthetic and sound but he did it all so flawlessly

[lament quiver]

gff was a triumph

[slim moss]

This era has a plan and I feel like there’s nothing coming in the way of that plan unfolding

[lament quiver]

i think that direction really made the er

era**

[wary swallow]

OH BTW

[lament quiver]

totallyyyy agree

dude and his confidence on stage

[lament quiver]

so so so wild to watch the evolution of that and his VOCALS

wow

[slim moss]

It was immediate and insane. God I can’t wait

[wary swallow]

an absolute goddamn diva

[lament quiver]

like he really just went out there and commanded the stage

[slim moss]

I was not expecting that high note during miracle girl wtf where did that come from

[lament quiver]

he’s SO good

and the belting during the new songs….

he’s perfect

[wary swallow]

SLUTTY AS A STATEMENT.

[obsidian ledge]

our perspective from center was perf

[lament quiver]

agreed

i was admiring it tbh bc it really did look like there was 2 of him

[slim moss]

So fucking good

[obsidian ledge]

yeah dude

[wary swallow]

@silk hull SEND YOUR PHOTOS

[lament quiver]

insanity

[obsidian ledge]

I also was confused like which one was real

[slim moss]

Didn’t know which one was him for a few minutes I swear to god

[lament quiver]

me too

[obsidian ledge]

or like he fuckin disappeared

Lol

WHERE DID HE GO

[lament quiver]

if you looked away you might not be able to tell

[silk hull]

I HAVW AO FUCKIG NAHMA H

IM KN

TROLLEY

GUVE ME A SEC

[slim moss]

Lmao

[obsidian ledge]

[lament quiver]

i’m interested to see how this live show evolves or if it will similar to good faith but maybe that was just a result of the covid delay shit

[wary swallow]

NO MANA?

NAH

AO Nahma

[wary swallow]

there are sections that I think are going to disappear for the tour

[slim moss]

GFF was the result of Covid and that drive from Covid to make an insane live show has clearly not slowed

[wary swallow]

particularly hyper color

[lament quiver]

really

?

[slim moss]

THAT LAST ONE FUCK

[wary swallow]

the hypercolor section

[lament quiver]

;-;

that was so fun

[wary swallow]

and a few others that I think AJ has a better idea

[slim moss]

All Ur Luv I fear too

[wary swallow]

100% fun, but I think that they don't really fit in with the narrative

[slim moss]

I feel it was mainly fan service for everyone who wasn’t able to come back for RR after it was snowed out. Anything that doesn’t make the narrative progress I think is going to be cut

And the full show is going to be longer too

[silk hull]

Yep

[lament quiver]

these are favs

[silk hull]

I wish my phone didn’t run out of storage :(((

[lament quiver]

i can see this for sure

it’s wild bc even tho it was short it didn’t feel like a speeding

speed run omg

[slim moss]

Part 1: The Band
Where is Part 2

[lament quiver]

^^^^^

YES

[wary swallow]

PART 2: ???????

[silk hull]

When does that title card appear?

[lament quiver]

when do we think the actual album will rollout

[silk hull]

I’d say late fall?

[slim moss]

I think it’s because he focused on making sure the Hugo arc was complete. The band Arc we know very little of and still no info at all about tubes. There’s more shit to expand on

[pure pulsar]

I was dead center of stage, and the perspective was stunning to me. Genuinely lost track of which one was the real Hugo at a few points

[wary swallow]

Part 1: The Band was right on the first impact sound right at the beginning

[silk hull]

OKOK

[silk hull]

Same

[lament quiver]

yeah after the show we were all like um…..

part 1…..

[slim moss]

Don’t think we’re ready for this era

[silk hull]

The Clones walked so that Hugo 2 could never miss lol

[lament quiver]

def not after that show

[slim moss]

We weren’t ready for RR

[lament quiver]

he really wasn’t scared to shock us

[silk hull]

Like god. The production value is so fucking good

[lament quiver]

he knows what he’s doing now

and you can see and feel it

[rose forge]

I’m not sure tubes will ever show up in the live show but idk

[slim moss]

I cannot wait to see what he has planned

[wary swallow]

WHERE IS MY BOY TUBES

[silk hull]

Tubes…

[wary swallow]

REMINDER: DON'T GO NEAR THE TUBE BY THE ASS

[silk hull]

LOL?

[lament quiver]

i love what he did with hwh

[slim moss]

I love what he did to everything

[wary swallow]

LIKE, 1000% a glazer but SHEESH. THIS ERA IS CUNTY AS FUCK

[rose forge]

I still think Icarus GFL is my favorite version

[wary swallow]

I NEEED IT

[silk hull]

I just got to that part in Devon’s recording lol

[wary swallow]

THE BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY BAND GRAPHIC GOES HARD

[slim moss]

Friday is the reason I’m a diehard madeon fan. So intentional with everything, so much more than just the music, so authentic with his art

[silk hull]

I love how Hugo is super immersed within the show now

[wintry bramble]

listening to the live for prolly the 10th time and omg super platinum is so cunty

[silk hull]

Like as a character

[pure pulsar]

I slightly prefer good faith Icarus, but Victory Icarus goes (crash test) DUMMY hard

[silk hull]

He can’t ignore the story

[slim moss]

And then the community is just as important to me as this art

[silk hull]

Or like, only okay parts of its

*play parts of it

Sorry, fucked up keyboard lol

[wary swallow]

LITERALLY DOESNT MAKE SENSE WITHOUT HIM

[slim moss]

GFF was definitely Proto-VL in that he used it to explore playing a character and mounting basically a play as part of a touring electronic music show

GFL did not do that

[wary swallow]

GFL could kinda work without him

[slim moss]

Revelations that came to him during COVID I would assume

[silk hull]

I’m going to have so much fun writing for this era once we figure shit out

[wary swallow]

but GFF, VICTORY? NAH. HE MUST BE IN THE SHOT OR ELSE

[pure pulsar]

Good Faith Forever (Benson Boone edition) /s

[lament quiver]

gotta work unforch:-(;

[wary swallow]

HUGO 2 MUST TAKE THE SHOT OR ELSE

[silk hull]

It’s like this era was tailor crafted to me

In all things I loved about GFF

It’s amplified tenfold for Victory

[slim moss]

It’s for all of us. GF left us wanting more and he took note of what we wanted and focused on it

[silk hull]

God I cannot wait for the full narrative

[wary swallow]

I NEED VICTORY LIVE IN A VAPE SO I CAN CHAINSMOKE IT

[silk hull]

LOL

[wary swallow]

hehe

[pure pulsar]

He’d make bank if he developed these shows (after their tour runs) into proper high quality VR experiences, I’d genuinely spend $20 - $30 on GFF and Victory each EASY

[slim moss]

Victory Live on Broadway would sell and make good money

[pure pulsar]

It would, but I could not imagine Madeon songs as musical theater numbers 😭😭

[slim moss]

No, the show as it is

[pure pulsar]

He’d make a killing doing a Vegas residency though

[slim moss]

This tour is gonna be massive I know it

[pure pulsar]

Fingers crossed it’s all venues that can fit the full production

[slim moss]

I don’t think he’s playing any shows in a way that compromises it

No no-lift GFF shows this era I hope

[pure pulsar]

I still cry sometimes that the only time I got to see GFF gonna be good was no lift (Philly)

[slim moss]

I never got to see GFF so I feel your pain

[pure pulsar]

Still cried when he played it that night though, you could tell how passionate he was about the song/how much he connected with the crowd jumping around on stage for it

[pure pulsar]

If I ever get access to a Time Machine, I’m rounding up every Madeon fan who didn’t get to see it live, and bringing y’all back to a GFF show

[slim moss]

1. LA finale please
2. I’m going to see Alive 2007 in NYC first

[pure pulsar]

We’ll do a group vote between finale, Red Rocks, and one of the Mirage shows lol

[slim moss]

Mirage 1 because it didn’t have the side stage tent blocking part of the screen

God GFF was lowkey cursed so many shows had shit go wrong

[wary swallow]

AJ WE DEFFO NEED TO DO ANOTHER Dischead Jockeys IRL AT THE FINAL TOUR STOP

[slim moss]

There’s gonna be more opportunities than just the final stop

[wary swallow]

(THIS APPLIES TO BOTH DHJ LIVE AND VICTORY LIVE) https://tenor.com/view/thor-drinks-another-one-coffee-good-gif-14287005

[pure pulsar]

Y’all, imagine he does the Victory Finale at Red Rocks… end things where it all began

[silk hull]

I would fly myself out AGAIN for that

[pure pulsar]

Oh same here absolutely

[wary swallow]

would do wonders

[silk hull]

I’m so glad that this Red Rocks even managed to happen in the most perfect circumstances

After so fucking long

[wary swallow]

the most perfect circumstances: END MADE IT TO RRX

[pure pulsar]

I mean, that’s what a few weeks difference can make in terms of weather patterns 😭

[slim moss]

Like if this was something we’d have done during GFF, I’d have done one around Koko in London, Mirage 2, Frost in SF, LA Finale, and Red Rocks

It just needs to be a show people are flying to

[timber rivet]

I need car crash baby and super platinum

[silk hull]

Same…

[timber rivet]

and the song where spikey had the lightning

[pure pulsar]

Did a lot of people fly out for Koko?

[timber rivet]

also revolution

[silk hull]

BTW, thank you for the cool laser cut keychain :DD
Will be taking it everywhere with me

[wary swallow]

VERY REAL

[wary swallow]

HYPER REAL

[silk hull]

Now I got 2 pendants lol

[wary swallow]

RETWEET
THANKS @timber rivet !

[pure pulsar]

Literally cannot stop singing Car Crash Baby

[slim moss]

Since we’re talking about shit people gave out, I have a question for everybody

[silk hull]

Yeah?

[slim moss]

If I were to make madeoncord stickers that are era 3 themed, what should they look like?

[silk hull]

Oooh

God

A victory styled logo would fuck so hard

[slim moss]

Because I’m making them

It’s gonna happen

Just need a design

[tender sonnet]

We need a bandaid and a Spikey for sure.

[silk hull]

YES

ALL OF THE BAND MEMBERS

[slim moss]

Was thinking if I were to do that to use the CD visuals

MADEONCORD very big on the top, discord.gg/madeon on the bottom

[tender sonnet]

Yes, I just got to that part in the thought process.

[slim moss]

I think I’ll do that

I’ll make a mockup and then ask someone more talented than me to make it better

[wary swallow]

yeah 3" CD with MADEONCORD in this style

[slim moss]

(Anyone down? I have specific ideas and I do want the final design to be a bit of a surprise)

CD idea being repurposed for something else, other idea for madeoncord is gonna be used

I’ll show it off once I get actual stickers prolly by next year (not sorry)

[sour jackal]

graphic designer here, happy to help if needed

[sweet oak]

Oh thats a killer idea love thay

[unique pebble]

Joey gave me Era 3 photo cards I need to buy photo keychains for to show them off to the world on my work bag

[unique pebble]

Very down!

[slim moss]

Would like people’s feedback in #events pls!!

[lament quiver]

waiting for the hugo levitation with this one tbh

[pure pulsar]

With how believable the clone looks, I think he could pull that off with a trapdoor installed in the stage for him to jump into during a brief blackout

[slim moss]

I think RR was like GFF 2021 where he showed off something insane but something that I feel could’ve been predicted. NA tour will hopefully be like GFF 2022 where he does something fully unexpected and mind blowing

[lament quiver]

would be incredible and i’m sure he’s planning something obscene

also

if i were to make victory nails, what should i include?

[pure pulsar]

Band member charms for sure

[wary swallow]

band members on each finger BUT! do it as if in-universe

[lament quiver]

say more

[wary swallow]

girlie pop Juno
badboy Spikey
Chilmaster Red
diva hugo

idk i'm just riffing

[craggy echo]

hold on i have something cooking in my brain

pinky - red
ring - the bandage for hugo (accent nail)
middle - juno
pointer - spikey
thumb - a question mark maybe?

[lament quiver]

brb working again BOOOO

[sweet oak]

Head icon logos

[stiff rivet]

I'm curious to know what other people have done with my stickers

[bitter wren]

this image reminds me of this post

hes peeping the horror

[stiff rivet]

that's just 1212 basically

we all got to peep the horror

[wintry bramble]

I never ended up getting a Celine sticker :')

[stiff rivet]

Oh fuck did I forget to give you one?

Like we met but I never gave you a sticker

[wintry bramble]

I saw so many new faces so my memory might be hazy!

but oh well next time

[stiff rivet]

I'll be sure to get you, we'll pick a place to meet next concert

[craggy sundial]

I met so many people at the RR show that I forgot to ask for names and everything. I only know I met @slim moss and @tender sonnet by name (which is crazy btw). I know there were people giving out stickers and the such, but I only got the Hi! sticker.

[craggy echo]

hi sticker was @obsidian ledge

[obsidian ledge]

hello. I am sponge.

[lofty saddle]

i never got to meet sponge

[obsidian ledge]

I will be present across the tour :3 and whichever irl madonger event that occurs 🤭

[lofty saddle]

yay!

[stiff rivet]

[azure field]

Miiiiissing you 💕

[wary swallow]

MAGIC CREW

[pure pulsar]

Gonna cry if I don’t manage to get one of the Red Rocks t shirts tomorrow 😭
