Birmingham, UK 2024

[vernal oriole]

there’s stoke if you really want to feel better about your home town

there’s also the exit signs which are the best bit by far

[velvet bear]

that’s impossible

[vernal oriole]

stoke is so bad

[velvet bear]

My home town is worse than stoke id argue

[vernal oriole]

where are you from

[velvet bear]

My home town is like a microcosm of some of the worst parts of Birmingham

[vernal oriole]

tbh stoke is mostly bad since there’s hardly anything to do

[rustic aspen]

it cant be thatttt bad

[vernal oriole]

stoke is a big factory with no creature comforts

[velvet bear]

The town is ran by weed, we have stabbings at Asda, we have shootings

[rustic aspen]

by any chance

do u live in stourbridge

[vernal oriole]

is this about to be a reunion arc

[rustic aspen]

i mean i could give the maoams then

[velvet bear]

I don’t

[rustic aspen]

ah okay

[velvet bear]

I’m like 40 mins from Birmingham by train

[vernal oriole]

damnit i wish i could drive i want maoams now

[deep glen]

Omg sameeeeee

[vernal oriole]

i’m like an hour and a half’s drive

[rustic aspen]

im like a 30 min train

OMD THE TRAIN BACK WAS SO HORRID

[deep glen]

I feel like there’s closer places to get maoams

[rustic aspen]

SOME GIRL WAS TRYNA FIGHT EVERYONE ON THE TRAIN

[vernal oriole]

makes sense for birmingham

[velvet bear]

My train back was pleasant because the cross city line got new upgraded trains 😁

[rustic aspen]

probably but like these maoams have cannon events

[velvet bear]

No there’s a world maoam shortage

[rustic aspen]

real

[vernal oriole]

anyways i can’t believe they played dwtk and dedicated it to charles 💀

[rustic aspen]

i was screaming down with the king

not to be political

[vernal oriole]

oh same

100% same

i’m honestly waiting for the post concert tinnitus to hit

[rustic aspen]

i wonder what the new song on the wall was

other shows apparently had wall play so does this mean wall is a gk5 song

[vernal oriole]

wall is so back

[velvet bear]

Might have been one of the ones from the new acoustic album coming soon

[vernal oriole]

i was secretly praying for faster, faster.

[rustic aspen]

maybe

[rustic aspen]

me too BUT seeing nick run around while singing ground and losing his ear piece was great

[vernal oriole]

that was absolutely class

although i will admit i didn’t realise he was singing ground until like

halfway through

[velvet bear]

😭

[vernal oriole]

they were gonna play ground either way i think

[rustic aspen]

ground always makes the set list

[vernal oriole]

yeah it was on there regardless

[rustic aspen]

BRO I STAYED 100% DRY THE WHOLE TIME UNTIL THEY PUT US IN THOSE FUCKING LINES

[vernal oriole]

i think it was 20 songs total

cause they played osmosis and atlas extra, no?

[rustic aspen]

atlas was bottom of list in pen

[vernal oriole]

yeah

[rustic aspen]

and they done osmosis too

[vernal oriole]

osmosis was not on the list at all

[velvet bear]

Saw the big sign askin for it

[vernal oriole]

i’m lowkey gonna get this setlist framed

[vernal oriole]

do love a good sign at a gig

[velvet bear]

How’d you come by this setlist

[vernal oriole]

asked one of the sound guys for it and they gave me it

[rustic aspen]

u lucky mf

[velvet bear]

oh that’s quite cool

[rustic aspen]

[vernal oriole]

i’m assuming there was others that are now in circulation

[rustic aspen]

there would be

[vernal oriole]

wonder who, if anyone else, got em

[rustic aspen]

i think all the band members gave some out and jon gave his sticks to some people

[vernal oriole]

i wish i got the sticks

i’m not even a drummer but still

[rustic aspen]

they seem like a nice thing to keep

[vernal oriole]

innit

it’s like how the bassist (i’m blank on his name sorry lmao) was tossing picks too

[velvet bear]

why didn’t they throw the guitars and drum kit into the crowd as well

[vernal oriole]

imagine

[rustic aspen]

thats a good question

[vernal oriole]

go go gadget fender telecaster

(2x)

[rustic aspen]

its not like they need it for northampton or anything

[vernal oriole]

pull up with whatever guitars they could buy in northampton lmao

[velvet bear]

I could do with a guitar

I don’t know how to play one but I want one

[rustic aspen]

100% valid

would be a good time to learn

[vernal oriole]

i would sell all of my family for any of those instruments

sorry not sorry

[deep glen]

Absolutely fair though because same

[rustic aspen]

i love how so many people got baited at the song just before they came on stage

[vernal oriole]

i wish i had the confidence to be one of those guys who has the “can i play with you guys” signs in all of those videos

like i could die happy then

[rustic aspen]

Frick my message failed to send with the full Madeline video

[vernal oriole]

rip

[velvet bear]

If I ask Jacob nicely enough would he throw a guitar straight at me

I’d accept brandishing the guitar as a weapon against me too

[rustic aspen]

never know until you try

[vernal oriole]

time to ask the band

[deep glen]

They do like signs. Make a sign next time. Sorted

[vernal oriole]

they do like signs

i feel like it would be on brand for jacob to duel someone with his guitar

[velvet bear]

Nah even if I wasn’t joking I’d be too socially awkward to speak to them directly

[deep glen]

Also sorting out my pics and vids. Fav pic so far

[velvet bear]

unless they materialised in a conversation I was in

[vernal oriole]

DAMN

[velvet bear]

That’s good

[rustic aspen]

thats a very good pic

[deep glen]

Thank you thank you

[vernal oriole]

shit i should’ve taken more photos

[deep glen]

Ss vids

That’s what I usually do

[vernal oriole]

true and valid

i was too far back tbh my videos are kinda grainy

[deep glen]

Sad

I need sort more of my vids but I took soooo many 😭

[rustic aspen]

i wish i couldve taken more

but phone was dead

[velvet bear]

My phone was close to death by mds

[rustic aspen]

my phone was death

[velvet bear]

Still had to record the whole thing though

[rustic aspen]

thankfully new street has SOME wireless chargers there

[velvet bear]

it is my fav and they saved the best till last

[velvet bear]

They’ve never worked for me

[rustic aspen]

maybe ur phone doesnt support wireless charging

[velvet bear]

It does

[vernal oriole]

i’m amazed that they played so much of the older stuff

[rustic aspen]

oh

[velvet bear]

Probably has to be Apple certified though

[rustic aspen]

uuh i dont think so

cuz ik the ones on avanti trains work with iphone

[deep glen]

Yeah I’ve had offbrand ones before that work

Maybe they just don’t like your phone

[velvet bear]

Huh

[rustic aspen]

could be case issue too maybe?

its not letting me send the full madeline

[deep glen]

Mahbeeeee

[velvet bear]

Probably

[rustic aspen]

either that or skill issue

[velvet bear]

or that 😔

[rustic aspen]

my head is starting to hurt

[velvet bear]

[vernal oriole]

the headache is killing me

[velvet bear]

Is post concert headache a regular experience because I also have one

[vernal oriole]

yeah

[rustic aspen]

it is if u dont have earplugs with u

[vernal oriole]

i got something similar after i saw noah kahan so i really need earplugs

[velvet bear]

I had noise cancelling headphones 😎

[rustic aspen]

u lucky mf

i had nothing

[velvet bear]

not lucky, smart

[rustic aspen]

BUT if ur not able to hear or talk after a concert, did u really have fun

[deep glen]

I never have headaches but my ears do be screeeeching

[rustic aspen]

that happens if i have headphones too long

[velvet bear]

I wear my headphones all the time don’t leave home without em

Although if your ears screech because of them I assume I keep music as a lower volume than you

[rustic aspen]

you most defo do

i have mine blasting

[deep glen]

It’s the only way

Who wants quiet music

[velvet bear]

I enjoy hearing

[deep glen]

Slowly gonna spam

[deep glen]

Pfttttt boring 😂

[velvet bear]

You’ve got some really good photos

[rustic aspen]

[velvet bear]

[placid crypt]
