New to the fanbase and I just started listening to the band but looking for community. Just wondering if I don’t do drugs will I still be accepted?

My dad’s Grateful Dead record collection which he let me borrow
I bought him Europe 72 and In The Dark over the past two years. The rest he bought himself.
[Discussion] People online don't like my drawings and I feel bad to the point where I haven't been drawing often and I don't enjoy it. I need some help getting motivated to start enjoying drawing again.
This all started recently when I posted two of my drawings on a subreddit and several people said that my drawings looked like they were done by a 10 year old. I'm 22 years old. I'll admit they look sort of bad sometimes. I can't seem to progress past a certain point art skill wise. I've had the same art style for a few years now.
I used to enjoy drawing. Now I've been trying to do other things but I miss drawing even though I don't enjoy it much anymore due to the negative comments I've received. My dad told me I should draw for myself but I like to share my drawings online and I don't see much of a point in drawing if I can't share them.
Anyways here are some of my drawings from the past few years. I've been drawing since the pandemic happened. I hope you at least like them.
Got this as a Christmas gift for my dad (early I know…) and I hold the record and it bends super easy and is very thin
Turns out it’s made of RCA Dynaflex which I had never heard of until today. Still plays very well. No skips or anything.
Is it normal to feel disconnected from the fanbase?
I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I’m 22 years old and have been a fan of twenty one pilots since 2019 when I was 15. I’ve never been active in the fanbase and I’ve only been to one twenty one pilots concert.
Maybe it’s because I have autism and am not that social. I feel disconnected from the fanbase especially after I went to the concert two years ago and saw the concert film in the movie theater a few months ago. I noticed a lot of twenty one pilots fans are in their teens and it made me feel in the minority considering I’m not a teen anymore.
It’s not weird to me considering I was 15 when I started listening to twenty one pilots. I’m just curious why people that age nowadays are listening to them? Is it for the same the reasons I was at that age?
I enjoy the music twenty one pilots makes because it’s always been relatable for me as someone who deals with depression, anxiety, and autism on top of those things.
Anyways if you happen to be in your teens and are reading this I mean no offense in this post. I’d appreciate if you could answer the questions I asked in this post. Thanks.
What’s your opinion on this album?
I bought this while record shopping on vacation. Jimmy Page was in The Yardbirds and on this album playing guitar. The record store owner told me this is proto-Zeppelin. Just wondering what your guys opinions on this album.
My first Rolling Stones albums
Got these while record shopping while on vacation. I’ve already listened to both of them.
What are your highlights from MTWEI?
I’ll start. Vignette because I remember Tyler playing that keyboard end part when I saw them play in Toronto and I loved it. Next Semester because when I saw the concert film in the theater I almost started crying when they started playing that song for reasons I’m not going to get into in this post. Nico/Heavydirtysoul goes hard. I love that they combined those two songs. Paladin Strait is also a highlight because I also remembered that from Toronto. Lastly Trees because it ends the concerts on a good note.
Some drawings I did of Led Zeppelin performing in Buffalo, NY in 1969
Any cool record stores near the Seattle waterfront and Pioneer Square?
I’m traveling to Seattle very soon and am going to be in the waterfront and pioneer square area for a day while I wait for the cruise ship to take me to Alaska.
I’m wondering if there are any record stores? It’s my first time in Seattle so I’m hoping to check any record stores out if there are any.
I made a scrapbook of the Zach Bryan concert I went to back in May. How do you guys like it?
I started listening to the Grateful Dead this week
Not sure what I think about what I’ve listened to so far. My favorite songs from them right now are Morning Dew, Uncle John’s Band, Cumberland Blues, Truckin’, and Tennessee Jed (Live in Paris). I’ve only listened to a small number of songs from them. Their catalog is massive when you count the live albums. That’s why I’m focusing more on their studio albums right now.
I decided to listen to the Grateful Dead mainly because my dad is a fan of them. He’s been one since I was little. I gifted him Europe ‘72 on vinyl for Father’s Day this year and that’s when I decided to start listening to the Grateful Dead.
It’s a beautiful experience getting into new music and listening to different artists and bands.
Going through an experience involving music and I am not sure if it’s unique to me and it’s bothering me
Something has been bothering me. I’ve mainly been listening to classic rock music and every classic rock artist or band that I listen to is from the 1960s, 70s, or 80s. I don’t listen to much modern music anymore. Just a few artists or bands like Zach Bryan and Twenty One Pilots.
I used to listen to a lot more modern music. I remember back in high school I was really into rap music and that ended while I was in college. Then while I was in college I really got into alternative rock and indie music.
I guess what’s bothering me is I want to try get back into some of the music I was listening to a lot before (the alternative rock and indie stuff) but I find it difficult for some reason.
I was mentioning selling some of my records to my dad and grandma but they said I might want to listen to them again and I shouldn’t sell them. I agreed. It’s just when you mention bands like for example The Beach Boys to people who are around my age and they say “I don’t know who that is” it sucks. And yes that actually happened at work a few weeks ago.
So if anyone has any suggestions on what I should do feel free to let me know because I for some reason am finding it difficult to revisit music I listened to in the past.
