Man what a run the last two years has been. The whispers, the teasers, the countdowns, and the comeback. 100 shows later and it still barely feels real.
"It's good to see you again" will forever live rent free in my head. It's a never-forget-where-you-were type moment. I'll never forget sitting outside watching the countdown and stream start up with my toddler + infant playing out front. Now their favorite song is The Emptiness Machine.
And how about those first few concerts, getting streams however we could get them to get a glimpse at the new setlists (RIP that guys phone, we owe you everything). Every song those first few shows was pure hype.
Seeing them in Newark last summer was special. The hype was real for the live version of Overflow. Got FTI which I've loved for 20 years. That long One Step Closer intro brings me back to a teenager. I mean, is there anything better in music than a crowd singing "I put my trust in you!".
How lucky are we right
