cover bands
going to a friends dj set is the lamest shit you can do these days everyone thinks they’re way too cool and at 99% of the gigs no one is dancing or having a good time. cover bands are wayyyy more fun and you have a way better time. no one is taking it seriously, so much more work is involved and it’s way sicker to see live music than your friends play to an empty bar on a weeknight

I guarantee whatever town you live in has a local Grateful Dead cover band. Some of the most fun and most I've ever danced at a local show was at a Dead cover band. You don't even have to know the songs!

i am curious 1. where are you going to dance 2. what kind of music is being played reason why I ask is because I tend to dance like a bat out of hell if a friend is DJing an event - I also dont know anyone in cover bands and wonder if this should change

THROWING SHOWS FOR FUN
local music scenes often suck because everyones trying to sell you something. A band is trying to get tiktok famous, a promoter is trying to make money, clout has poisoned the well that art drinks from. Just find a spot, ask friends to bring amps and drums, tell everyone to get there at 7 and listen to your buddies play music. literally anyone can do it. it can be alot to manage and be responsible for but its worth it

solo concerts/gigs/shows
if you live in a big city and you like live music/theatre there will always be stuff to go to that'll be the worst thing you've ever seen or the best, and it's fun to vibe on your own if your friends don't share your taste

Seeing bands you don’t know
Live music is fun even if you don’t know the band. I like to pretend i’m too cool to sing along and everyone is in love with me 🫶

The soundtrack to ‘la piscine’
I feel a little bit like a stuck up loser for recommending a relative to the masses obscure French film soundtrack but truly there is no more accessible vibe to the background of a casual day off around the house. Straight french vibe heroin to the bloodstream. Cooking, cleaning, and I especially throw it on at the stuck up coffee shop I work at.
