Favorite Live Setting

Lyrics

I think the setting that we prefer live is kind of what we've been doing with
 With places like New York and D. C., we've been doing more, you know, multiple nights
 And we just did three nights at Terminal Five, here
 And, you know, that equals to like, one night at some bigger venue
 But I think our fans prefer it, and I think we prefer it
 In that medium size room where
 There's still intimacy but enough people to make it feel like something's happening
 But, uh, in particular, with like, Terminal Five, you can see
 The sight lines from the stage are amazing, like you can see everybody's faces
 But I think that kind of medium size room, I think suites the band all the way around
 And pleases the people who wanna come and see us 'cause it's not
 You know, you're not this little pin drops on stage somewhere, uh
 And you know, it's still bombastic enough with a lot of intimacy
 I've always felt that any, any show is, is great in it's own way
 So I don't actually put one above the other, I don't prefer club shows to like giant arena shows
 Or we've open for You Too and played to like 60,000 people
 Or A. C. L. was daytime this year and that was like, you know, huge amount of people
 And that's never been a problem to me, I think people think of us as this dark band
 And there's a certain aesthetic and we certainly love playing in the rooms that Sam describes
 And we can get our light show going and like really create our own mood
 But I've always kind of thought whenever we had like a daytime Slaughter Head festival
 I just think of like Wood Stock and the footage I've seen of that
 And just think there's, there's nothing more rock than like
 Daytime, with 50,000 people to me
 So, it's not always the most comfortable thing 'cause you kind of
 Rush on to stage and rush off stage with no sound check and it's the daytime
 But there, they have their own amazing energy for me, and then club shows
 Tiny, tiny club shows have their own unique energy and it's uh, all sort of different flavours
 But it's always, you know, whatever is fine as far as I'm concerned
 I think the younger, the younger band is like nighttime is kind of a crutch
 You know, it's a bit of security and then, the more comfortable you are
 Which is playing your music like it doesn't matter, like, you should just be ready to go
 And there, there is, I agree with Paul, that whole like aspect of like daytime and high energy
 And you know, the band does apply to that
 Like we have music that can be played in the daytime without, uh
 Without loosing anything, you know what I mean?
 Without loosing the vail of nighttime or that, that
 You know, that security blanket that it, that it provides
