New photo of the boys in China!

"I see a sign that says 'Your music saved my life.' You saved your own life. It's important you know that. Our music may have been the gasoline, but you're the engine. You saved yourself."

King of this pose

I thought I was recovering from this and then a new angle emerged.

man I mean just. the SMFS album lettering is made of clay. the cover art is an actual physical painting. there's a lot less fx on the album as a whole than Mania (which is NOT a knock on my bbg Mania btw, just pointing out the different approach) or even SRAR and ABAP. the songs sound basically the same live as they do on the record because the production is so minimal. they have a huge vinyl dog head onstage with them, that they touch and interact with and talk to (and, in Pete's case, get eaten by). the attic scene is made by lowering a piece of rigging to literally make the stage smaller. there's actually a LOT of sets especially comparatively to their previous tours, the rigging around the stage is done up almost as a physical frame for it. they only have one screen onstage and it's small, its purpose is to be the 8-ball and to add a little bit of texture to the wider design. the backdrops, even the new desert scene for 2ourdust, are physical backdrops — one of which was made by one of Pete's kids — not LED or projections. the album title is made of clay. it's about existing in the world, making things so you feel alive, making the world a little more fuckin weird! do you get it yet?

THANK YOU PIPER ( @itsjustfirealarms )FOR GETTING THIS PART THAT IS SO IMPORTANT

patrick singing “you changed my life” instead of “you saved my life” during ginasfs 🥺🥺🥺

This angle is so devastating. The way Pete giggles and smiles the whole time. The way you can hear Patrick’s giggle and stutter after Pete calls him love.

he's SUCH a cunt i love him

two of them!
