On a really not even tangentially related note.... we went to see RTJ in Philly when they were supporting Lorde. Neither my husband nor I are into her music, but Mitski was also on the bill, so we picked up excellent side stage seats the day of the show. Loved Mitski, and were all excited for RTJ. Everyone around us was sitting during their set, we were literally the only two people on our feet, clearly enjoying their performance. When they were done, my husband ran over to where they were coming off stage (we had about 7th row off the floor) and exchanged a few words with them, saying how great they were etc.I grabbed two RTJ for anyone who wants them. I’ve got kids, and they’re really not my thing anyways, so hit me up. (@NewsFedora has dibs)
He came back to our seats where I had stayed, and no less than three groups of late teen / early 20 somethings came over to us and asked "Are you their parents?" I will say, my husband is blond and vaguely resembles El-P in a generic sort of way, but it amused me to no end that so many people asked us. We explained that no, we are just music lovers who used to attend lots of live shows pre-covid. I prob should have been insulted that they assumed we were old enough to be his parents, but since neither of us will ever act our ages, I let it slide.
