In retrospect I do think the "twist" in SUGAR season one may be my favorite in television history, even though it's not even close to being a traditionally good or even enjoyable show. The vibes are simply insane
the thing about a slumping player on a new team is it doesn't help when your name ends in ucker
"i like that the first three bands have too many of a letter" - @rnf.me
The show itself feels as distant from reality as its main character does, and the twist works because it feels like a stylistic choice up until it's revealed as a literal plot device
It's been over a year, I've contacted Tidal 7 times, and they STILL haven't separated my artist page from a different artist by the same name (with lower case letters).
If anyone wants to help and report, this is supposed to be my page: tidal.com/artist/50111...
Not this: tidal.com/artist/10849...
The unintended consequences of naming a show "OPEN BORDERS" and becoming a situation where anyone can show up and play a set... is my ego strong enough... is my spirit sufficiently ecumenical for this to continue as a bit

Blake Treinen is such an all around piece of shit and I wish he wasn’t on my team
I would add that the inherent artifice of the musical-theater style is why it so rankles to hear her occupy genres that, for better or worse, rely on perceived authenticity to function. I hear a child singing show tunes that simulate "rocking out"
If an Italian guy from an independent radio station in Mexico emails you and asks you to play a set you should let him. OPEN BORDERS recorded live at MOCA is now up for playback:
