Some FOMO sure but I may stay away from here from the 13th because I don’t want to read a week of thoughts and opinions before I get to hear the album. It’s weird now because there will be a large amount of fans who will have heard it a week before another large amount of fans so we’ll be kind of divided after the 13th. This is how I feel. I really don’t want to be reading other people’s opinions for 6 whole days before I get to form my own, so I’ll just be avoiding spoilers that week. I enjoy the quiet ritual of listening to a new album on my own, so I have no desire for a group listen, even though the idea is cool in theory. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I love sitting on my couch and listen to the whole record on headphones. So maybe thats something they could change in the future. Something like a sign up for a prelistening party, where everyone gets a headphone (or bring your own) and a booklet/lyrics and listen on your own. After that you can talk with other fans and their opinions about it. That would be nice 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flynn Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 As someone who would prefer to be by myself this is just an excuse for me to socialise with random people who probably vary in age ranges, some could probably be like a whole 40 years older even. Kinda hoping that's not completely the case and I'm able to see people in... at least Gen Z... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm supposed to drive back to Sandusky to help set up for my baby shower (aka my mom's grandma shower) but I've decided I'm just going to be late. The party isn't till the next day anyway. The person who messaged me back from Used Kids said it should be over with by 3pm and I'll just hit the road after! I bailed on work, LOL. Which store are you going to? Not sure if my brother is able to make it, but I'll head down to Columbus for this. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We planned on going to Used Kids on Summit (across from Rumba Cafe) because it starts at 2, an hour earlier than Spoonful. Magnolia Thunderpussy didn't have a time listed and hasn't posted anything yet. Used Kids seems to always have their shit together, that's where we went to get the Rev Rad masks way back when! Sadly I won't have much time to mingle afterward but I'm free any time beforehand! Not sure what time we should get there to make sure we get merch. They open at 10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother is good friends with the owners at Spoonful, so I am waiting to hear if he's able to do this or not. We shall be in touch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montclare Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I'm going in part for the freebies, but also so I don't have to avoid this place for a week. Just have to avoid it the day of to avoid spoilers from time zones that are further ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beathe. Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 For the event in Oslo it says that they will collect your phone. I guess people will have to be more creative with recording it. 😅 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
þjáningu Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 dumb question but i've never been to a listening party before can someone explains what happens ? like do you go into a private room and listen with other people or do you get a private booth or something to listen to the whole record ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The store told me they just put the record in the stereo and you can shop while listening to the album. That's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds fun, lucky those of you that can attend it. 🤩 It seems like each place is just doing their own thing. I see that some people that are going to other places just signed up and got a ticket right away. For Oslo you can sign up at three different sites for some reason and they will announce who got tickets next week. I don't understand why we got a listening party and no tour date though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grohl Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I've only been to one in an alternative clothing store. It was for The Murderdolls. They just put on the album in the store while you shopped. They had a contest for some signed goodies and those who entered the store and mentioned they were there for the listening party got two free exclusive posters. I still have both of mine 🙂 they also held a discount for those who mentioned the Murderdolls at checkout. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebahar Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Are some or all of them going to any of the events? I only ask because on Spotify, it shows three events for the 13th in London, Bristol, and Brighton. I know that's the listening party day, but seemed odd that only those dates were on Spotify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But these events got potential if they work on the concept a little bit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
