The Exam

Best Music Moment of 2019

BC: Three straight hours of this

youtube

in my Chapman Ryder Cup match with Code -The Robert M. Chennault Playlist in my Ryder Cup match with Laser -Vampire Weekend's "M79" with Parks and Rec theme interlude in Pawnee Peytonville with my babe -Late night music game with JD and Chaps this Fall -My kids competing for best air guitar solo to Daft Punk's "Digital Love" -The Stones soundtracking Raceday morning with Counterfeit Kenny and the Kennel Boys

Codem: -Picking up the keys after closing on #our house and listening to Arden's dreams for the pad while listening to the songs that brought us together in the first place. -Perched in the balcony of Park West watching Chromatics live and in person. -The Chapman format playlist that Brendon and I put together. It was just one song on repeat. Xtal - Aphex Twin -Plugging in my klipsch's for the first time in the new house to listen to elliott smith on the day of his death. the sound of his discography wafting throughout the whole house was a true delight.

Bronco: My 6-year-old discovering Green Day. My 9-year-old discovering Metallica. Both discoveries have awakened something in them that is hilarious and awesome to behold. And seeing Tool was pretty flaming awesome.

JD: March: Realizing I’d never heard this Stones song, nodding along to the opening riff, and exploding into my biggest laugh of the year at the first line.

youtube

June: The Joni Mitchell performance in the Rolling Thunder Review documentary on Netflix. June: Catching the Thom Yorke Anima short film at the IMAX theater on the Upper West Side. July: Code and I getting a perfect 99 score on the greatest rendition of “Emotional Rescue” karaoke you’ll ever see. October: Playing the music game WAY too deep into the night with BC and Chap (look for the next day’s hangover on my worst moments list).

Chap: Patrick Stickles singing "I'm sorry dad no I'm not making this up" to his dad in the audience.

Nasty: Listening to music at BOB. Nothing but jams that whole weekend. Driving in with Laser - GOOGLE MUSIC JAMS. Trip to the casino - JAMS. Hanging out on the deck - JAMS. Driving to the course with Blazer Black - Fuck Buttons - Sweet Love for Planet Earth aka JAMS. In the cart with Code - JAMS. Driving Chappy and Sfreddo to the rental car - JAMS (but quietly).

Larse: Greta Thunberg speech dubbed to metal

youtube

Best Shows Seent in 2019

Nasty: The Killers @ Summerfest. Hot Fuss will always be an all-time favorite album and Mr. Brightside is the best pop song of our lifetime, IMO. Also, my wife loves them which is about the only band in middle of the venn diagram.

Larse: The Lonely Island at Summerfest

BC: Dead & Company

JD: 1. The Rapture at Music Hall of Williamsburg 2. Viagra Boys at Bowery Ballroom 3. The Strokes and Parkay Boys at the All Points East fest in London with drunk lads screaming along to the guitar parts 4. B Boys at Union Pool 5. Titus Andronicus at Bowery Ballroom 6. Avey Tare at Market Hotel 7. Tame Impala at MSG 8. Weeping Icon at Elsewhere 9. Priests at Elsewhere

Code: interpol - chicago theater illuminati hotties - hideout it looks sad - subT downstairs robyn - riviera steve malkmus - art institute eleventh dream day - hideout colleen green - sleeping village swearin' - lincoln hall surf curse - subT shura - the bottle

Chap: TA was the only show I saw. It was great!

Bronco: All of them. They were each great in their own way. Aside from Tool I was able to interact with the band members at each of the shows. One I didn't have a ticket for and scored one at the door. One was in the tiniest venue I've seen a show at. One had a surprisingly entertaining opening act. And Tool surprised me with how much I enjoyed an arena show despite being so far away I couldn't see the facial features of the band members. And there was SOOOOOOO much weed being smoked in the Garden that night. And I was with a few good buddies. And I was able to sell my fourth ticket for twice what I paid, simulatenously covering me and my fourth friend who had to bail because his life sucks because his wife sucks.

Confession of 2019

Nasty: I consume more music at my cushy, suburban OrangeTheory workout classes than in my own free time. S/O to Coach Vanessa for having some Girl Talk on her playlists.

Codem: i had more fun listening to stuff that i already knew about than stuff that was coming out.

BC: I saw a Yacht Rock cover band and didn't hate it -I succumbed to social pressure and saw DMB -I didn't realize until the last minute that my favorite album was released in 2018 (Wild Nothing). Removing it greatly reduced my loyalty to my list.

Bronco: I'm losing my edge. I enjoyed way more lady singer bands this year than in any other year.

Chap: Couldn't get my shit together on the tracks list so just posted a random playlist

Larse: Not really a confession but more of a TIL (today I learned), but Raphael Saadiq was an original member of Tony! Toni! Tone!

Biggest Disappointment of 2019

Bin: The National @ Summerfest. From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "the frontman was completely detached, even confessing at one point that he was excited to get back home to his family. The result was an incredibly depressing show — which, given the band's dour songs, is really saying something." ... Huge Bummer.

BC: Didn't see nearly enough shows with nearly enough of yous

Chap: Sturgill Simpson... unlistenable!

Bronco: Baroness.

Laser: Modest Mouse opening for The Black Keys

Code: i was really messed up by dave berman's passing. i had tickets to see him play at the end of august. it was going to be my first catching him live and in concert. i had waited for this moment since i picked up american water back in 2003. two weeks before he was supposed to come through town, he up and died. also, much less of a bummer, the chromatics show in miami that Arden and i were going to attend got canceled two days before the show.

Most Overrated of 2019

Nasty: Kanye's shoes

Chap: LEGACY! LEGACY! – Jamila Woods seems to have been highly regarded? Not my thing

BC: FKA Twigs

Bronco: Baroness.

JD: Big Thief

Code: cancel culture

Larse: Mayor Pete

Make it Stop 2019

Chap: In my house, the Nutcracker Suite. It's great, until the 300th time that day.

Nasty: Cage the Elephant (but children, instead of elephant, and in real life, not the band)

BC: Lizzo

Code: lizzo

JD: Memes

Larse: Trump

Bronco: News

Biggest TBH Regret of 2019

Chap: Can't seem to get to more than one show per year; Jessica Pratt in a church by my old place

JD: Missin’ dat Pratt yet Nick!

BC: Should've listened to the Kanye album. Should've spent more time with the Deerhunter record.

Rotty: Skipping CHVRCHES at Summerfest

Code: another year with no fog party

Nasty: Not going to Indy 500. lol jk.

Bronco: I didn't buy tickets to a few shows I would've liked to have seen. One of them I went to the venue and didn't get in. That bummed me out, but I crossed the street and had a few beers by myself for good measure, so it wasn't a total loss.

Detective Murtaugh of 2019

JD: Everything.

Bronco: Shows that don't start until 10pm. That Girl Band show nearly wrecked me.

Chap: How much I loved Bruce Springsteen's adult contemporary western-themed old-man album.

BC: The ten seconds I lasted with 1000 GECS

Nasty: For the life of me - I cannot figure out how to operate the "play next" queue on these apps.

Laser: Lizzo at Summerfest - lot of younglings running around; people were racist towards Lizzo's security guards, she vowed not to come back to MKE, one of the most segregated cities in America :(

Resolution for 2019 Status

Laser: — How It Went: Who can even remember this shit...I'm sure it was that I'd do better at keeping track or listen to more shit people suggest and I'm sure I failed.

BC: Listen to one new album a week; reboot the Classic Album Review Club How It Went: Noooot toooo gooooood

Code: catch ovlov, pictureplane, washer, chromatics, EMA and colleen green live this year. How It Went: i saw chromatics and colleen green. last i checked .400 gets you into cooperstown.

JD: Greater consciousness of how I’m using my attention - an ineffectual and meaningless protest of the ways the world is burning down in pursuit of it. How It Went: Not bad! I especially nailed the “ineffectual and meaningless” part.

Chap: Learn Piano; Guilt Joe Dons into finally inviting me to a concert. How It Went: Learned some piano but got to busy for it... Couldn't guilt JD to invite me anywhere but I DID invite him to a show! The same one I went to! With him!

Bronco: Read more 'classic’ books. I didn’t read many of them, even in school (especially in school? Never could read a book I was told to read). But I’m leaning in the sci-fi direction of 'classics’. I just read Dune this summer, and wrapped up Fahrenheit 451 the other day. I’m feeling an unexplained need to beef up my nerd credentials and this seems the way to accomplish it. How It Went: Nope. Fell back in to zombie-apocalypse genre series that I've been reading for a while. But I am currently reading arch-nerd Neal Stephenson's "Fall; or, Dodge in Hell". It's almost 900 pages, I feel like I've been reading for months now, and because I'm a stupidly slow reader, I read only before going to bed, and can only make it 10 minutes before falling asleep and hitting myself in the face with my phone, I'm only 25% of the way through. But man is it painting a creepy yet eerily plausible scene of the near future. Guy just knows how to write.

Nasty: Hope last year I was smart enough to leave this blank. (editor’s note: [removes shoes, pets cat, puts on slippers, retires to favorite easy chair, sips martini, slowly pulls reading glasses out of cardigan pocket, dusts them off, loads todaysbiggesthits.tumblr.com, scrolls to ‘Resolution for 2019’] “Nasty: I’m sticking with it - get to NY for a show with JD.”)

Resolution for 2020

BC: See Phish in 2020

Codem: i'm making it easier this year. catch ovlov, washer, EMA and colleen green live this year. bonus points: see dom's much anticipated return to the stage.

Bronco: Build a vinyl collection. I know I dumped on Brendon for suggesting he press copies of Carpet Affair, but my kid's getting way into music and listening to it on his own (via Alexa in my bedroom which is super fucking annoying), so we're getting him his own record player and I think it's going to be a cool activity to go record store diving for whatever classics we can scrounge up.

JD: Get to more shows. Take more aimless strolls spinning tunes.

Bin: Send an email about music on the TBH! thread.

Larse: None

Chap: Eh I'm cool

Most Anticipated of 2020

Code: my man dom said that he is coming back to the world this year. i have to believe that he'll keep his word. i'm thinking 2020 is going to be the year for chromatics' Tommy.

Chap: TWOD, Perfume Genius, Jason Isbell

BC: Huey Lewis and the News, Tame Impala, Run the Jewels

Bronco: Kvelertak and Mastodon, maybe some surprise extra Tool material?

JD: Working Men’s Club

Nasty: Spotify getting Jay-Z's catalog back.

2 8 10 40 - all

2: Do you ever get “good morning” texts from anyone?

Belle: i think that helle would maybe do that if they were ever like apart for an extended period of time--like i imagine when belle travels for work later in life--but it’d probs be belle sending them first since she’d be up first lol and im sure her kids would send them to her :’) but not atm really no

Simba: if simba and ber are ever apart, definitely. nala probably sends them sometimes if they’re meeting up to go running or something. simba is usually the one sending tho bc he’s always up first, he sends them to his mommy a lot or anyone who is having a bad time of it

Toulouse: lol -- tho actually, tbh, i’m sure adelaide sends them to him sometimes and probably did when she was away, aw

Maui: his mama sends them sometimes, or his brothers but it’s like “good morning, dickhead, don’t forget it’s dad’s birthday.”

Attina: i’m sure she gets them from lots of people! her sisters or her dad or benjamin, he seems like the kind of person to send random good morning texts, usually when he needs something lmao

Hercules: from his mum and dad sometimes, not every day, but pretty frequently, he probably sends them to georgette

Lady: nah not really

Artemis: apollo probably sends them sometimes from the other room lol “good morning sister come get breakfast!” she sleeps a lil later than him sometimes bc medium

Mei: im sure her mom sends them and her dad sometimes, her best friend was probably sending them but it tapered off

Megara: nope

8: Are you close with your dad?

Belle: lol no she’s basically disowned him (though part of her does want to tell him about opal, i’ve been toying w another visit from crazy old maurice)

Simba: CRY simba was, despite all hte shit in their relationship, really close to his dad. he considered both his parents his best friends

Toulouse: closer than his brother, but more distant than his sister. lou and his dad had a really rough relationship when lou was growing up and he has a lot of resentment, but he also is a lot like his father and does enjoy having discussions on certain topics with him.

Maui: nah not really, his dad is “fine” - maui

Attina: the closest!! attina loves her dad and would do literally anything for him, it’s probably a lil bit of a co-dependent relationship lol triton definitely depends on tina and she is too afraid to try to function without him around

Hercules: growing up, herc was close to both his parents! they were his only constant companions, but since he learned he was adopted, he’s been struggling a little more and hides more things from them, when once he told them absolutely everything

Lady: daddy’s little girl!! her dad wasn’t around a lot as a child and he was very stern, but he did dote on lady and was the one who came up with her nickname, calling her his “little lady” and he buys her nice fancy things.

Artemis: apollo probably sends them sometimes from the other room lol “good morning sister come get breakfast!” she sleeps a lil later than him sometimes bc medium

Mei: yes and no. mei loves her dad a whole lot !! they share a connection through their divination but she’s also a growing young woman and of course that leads to conflicts with parents. at the end of the day, if you asked her tho, she’d def say her and her dad are close.

Megara: yeah actually! meg’s mom walked out on her when she was a baby so meg’s dad is the only parent she’s ever known and her dad is amazing. she stans forever.

10: What are you listening to?

Belle: nothing really? belle isn’t a big music person. she’s got her mother’s records but outside of that -- eh. though, i’m sure ber is distressed by this and has probs made her a playlist

Simba: whatever ber puts on his iPod (the new imagine dragons song)

Toulouse: the same old shit probably, lots of french music, lots of classical

Maui: the new bastille album !!

Attina: probably carly rae jepsen’s album is her album of the summer unless something else comes along...also probably taylor swift’s new stuff RIP

Hercules: hozier’s new album

Lady: im not up to date on country music but whatever is hot rn

Artemis: also hozier’s new album probably lmao

Mei: some new kpop stuff that i am also not caught up on. mei is spending her summer making a thousand playlists bc she can do it w/o internet

Megara: mother’s daughter by miley cyrus and nightmare by halsey

40: Have you ever regretted kissing someone?

Belle: oh def, she regretted kissing hades at first every time bc shit kept getting fucked up lmao

Simba: noooot really. no. i’m gonna say hard no.

Toulouse: he’s regretting kissing peri rn lmao lou always regrets kissing people he’s like why the FUCK

Maui: nope (maybe merida a liiiiiittle bit if only bc of what it did to their group of friends)

Attina: lmao u mean her whole dating history

Hercules: nooot really if only bc he’s only ever kissed like 3 ppl in his life

Lady: oh yeah, for sure. girls lmao

Artemis: yup one time a boy kissed her and he lost his powers lol

Mei: nope !!

Megara: lol yup definitely her ex the ASSHOLE, also she’s probably made some drunken mistakes that the next morning she’s like ‘ew gross’ about as she sneaks out of the house
