โ OUTFIT RUNDOWN โ
Vintage YSL jacket from church basement sale. I don't like the 90s lapel but the shoulders are perfect and the material is too nice, I couldn't leave it behind.
Vest deadstock from Brown's in TO, now closed. Shirt from the also defunct hometown co Bon Vivant. Tie from marketplace. Vintage Stetson Stratoliner from the cutest elder gay on marketplace. Pocket square (Luigi BIanchi), unlabeled shoulder bag, even the watch are all from GC Surplus lol.
Gimme all your old menswear
Bonus: also we saw Travis at Wei's Noodle House before the show, an obvious choice since it was a 4 min walk from the venue and has like 10 restaurants' worth of vegan options on their gigantic menu. It was pretty much a rotating door of long haired guys with spiky logo shirts and sleeve tattoos coming thru Wei's, I wonder what they thought!
My work-bff and I solidified our office-bromance by both independently ordering the same thing. The "Korean style spicy stir fried udon".
Last time I saw Cattle Decapitation I was kinda put off by the super high budget production values bc it didn't feel right for like deathgrind. Anyway that was like three months ago and since then I've decided to embrace it. House lights plus their own floor lights PLUS a Beyoncรฉ type box fan at the front so they could take turns doing Beyoncรฉ windy hair things. Slay!

Knoll brought their haunted living room situation to this huge tour, no house lights at all. Didn't make any sense in a room that size and I respect that so much. Do your thing!
The beaded curtain was a great way to hide the classic opener "playing in front of 3 other drum kits" problem, vibey way to shrink the stage & highlight the wiiiiild drummer. Singer creepily playing with a little lampโI can't stress this enoughโdid not work at all in a room that size but the commitment was ๐ฏ/10
