Saw Boston show last night…What the???

What’s going on? Die hard fan here. Seen him 6 or 7 times now including Joshua Tree show. Last night was whack. Something seems off.

7pm doors. He came on at like 10pm? Like it’s Tuesday and your fans are in their 30s and 40s now bud. Let’s get on w the show. lol.

Why is alex v alex still opening? I thought her set was a joke or a troll at Joshua Tree. Absolutely stunned she’s still involved in his music. She does not set a good tone for the show. I don’t wanna disparage the poor girl too much. But for the love of god, why is he sabotaging his shows by having her perform? She just leaves confusion in her wake.

Sound was definitely off. Not sure whose fault that was…

On top of that, he decided to do all these deconstructed song openings… which after waiting for him to get out on the stage, it took him forever to get into a song… it just felt insulting.

Joshua tree was one of the best concerts of my life. And he’ll always be one of my fav artists. But goddamn, not loving where the live show is at right now.

GF let me choose out a record player a few months back as a gift. Repurposed some old studio monitors.

Speaker placement is abominable I know... but I havent committed yet to what shelving system I want to install in the concrete. But it still rocks.

Is my BOG Vinyl actually a 10yr anniv release?

So my girl got me Built on Glass vinyl for V-day this year. Im new to Vinyl so I was just so happy with the gift, but as Im getting into things and learning that theres all types of releases and such... I happen to see on Discogs that the 10yr anniversary release has a 3rd bonus disc... and mine does not.

She ordered it off Walmart.com and it was an order fulfilled by ChalkysUK. The listing description was odd. It never claims its the "10 Yr anniversary" edition. But it does say "Celebrate the 10 year anniversary with this album". Not only that, it came in a sleeve with the 10yr anniversary sticker...

So Im trying to figure out if we got scammed in a way.

  • Was there a 10yr anniversary release that didnt include the 3rd disc?
  • Do I have an original 2014 release that was slipped into a 10yr sleeve?
  • Did they just not include the bonus disc?

Trying to figure out if I should try to claw anything back through Walmart or Chalkys...
