Well that's MY NIGHT tomorrow sorted then :disco:

I hope it's on a hidden youtube link so I can cast it to my TV instead of having to watch on my laptop [/boring]

same! i just heard about it and wrote a couple of friends with much excite and they were like "oh? yeah? hm, i don't know".
they fucking passed on kylie!

i really need new friends. no one cares about music anymore.
 
I thought it had already been. I'll see what state I am in tomorrow... how much is the tix?
 
I was so up for this but it’s my birthday tomorrow and I have family dinner plans

fuck you Roisin and your bad timings!!

this is one of the main reasons I’m on moopy. My mates are all so passive about music. It’s infuriating. It’s not like I’m asking them to go to chess conventions. At this point I’ve probably been to more gigs with moopers than ACTUAL REAL PEOPLE

fucking samesies. they just wanna talk about coronavirus and their jobs and their dating lives.
yeah, let's discuss our mundane existence.

i pick lasers and pop music every time.

This just happens when you hit your 40s I guess. I was teetering on that verge too tbh.
 
i don't know why i was nervous about this. minute in and she's everything.
 
it's getting jazz festival-y.

was definitely more excited by kylie.
 
She's always been amazing when I've seen her live, but the setlists really do veer ALL OVER THE PLACE. I'm going to catch up on this one!
 
ugh, it's a bit awful.

it's kinda boring and the songs are not working. joyless.
 
I will say that when I've seen her she seems like someone who really feeds off a crowd - I wonder if that's part of the problem?
 
I enjoyed this! The opening run of all the Roisin Machine sad bangers was just :disco: and they ALL sounded like absolute classics.
I think maybe the tech problems caused people to be more critical online than they normal would have done, as it really wasn't a huge departure from her usual live shows.

I LOVED all the new versions, and the acoustic Familiar Feeling ending with Roisin ASCENDING AWAY in a lift was just beautiful :D / :(
I'm so happy she is properly claiming the Statues album these days. It's closer to her solo material than Moloko ANYWAY, and features some of the best songs of her entire career.

I MUST GRUMBLE about the platform she hosted it on though. It was a total mess.
If you're doing a LIVE STREAM EVENT, surely making the stream look as good as possible and be easy to access MUST be your number one priority?
The stream was awful, and cut out for about 20 minutes at point. You couldn't cast it to your TV easily (the entire chat was just people saying "HOW CAN I WATCH THIS ON MY TV") which for a 2020 Saturday night event at £12 a pop, only having the option to watch on your laptop or phone is just RIDICULOUS, and there is no on-demand option to watch outside the 3 times they set. A MESS!

I'm enjoying it far more today watching the illegal rip on YouTube on my TV, which looks and sounds SO MUCH BETTER and isn't cutting out constantly :D I can also watch AT MY LEISURE (until it gets taken down :eyes:)
