Sky: Children of the Light Aurora In Game Concert Event

Sky: Children of the Light Aurora In Game Concert Event

There have been quite a few "Virtual concerts" in video games in recent years, and on December 8th, the game Sky: Children of the Light became one the games that has hosted a concert in game.  Though "Concert" feel like a bit of a stretch, it's more like a Musical Event.  Similar TO Fortnite's Soundwave Series Events.  All of the songs also seemed to just be the Studio Tracks, which was kind of a bummer.  I didn't really expect an actually live event, but a bit of a live feel to the music would have helped make it a bit…

Aurora @ The Riviera feat SubUrban (2022.05.27)

It seems like my brief run (of 2) concerts where I was standing up front couldn't last forever. I was close, but I was not right up front for the Aurora show. Not a massive deal, except I ended up behind this dude with poofy hair, so I couldn't see half the stage half the time. But I'm not really here to complain. I'm here to record things that I want to remember. This would have been my 4th (proper) concert, but I opted to not go see Dodie back in February, due to COVID going nuts at the time.…
My Music Listening Habits for 2020

My Music Listening Habits for 2020

Yeah, those monthly updates were kind of bleh, so I dumped them. But I still want to do a yearly wrap up. Though overall there isn't a lot that's surprising to me about the yearly stats. The year was dominated by most of the artists I would expect it to be dominated by. Sigrid, Tessa Violet, Aurora, CHVRCHES have 14 of my top 25 albums. This grid doesn't even include a few additional Sigrid "Albums" of live tracks that don't properly show up so they get filtered. Anyway, a bit better breakdown... I am actually surprised that Sigrid still topped…

My Music Listening Habits for April 2020

Well, it finally happened. After a very long, very strong, 9 month reign as Queen, Sigrid has been dethroned from my top artist for the month. And by a rather huge margin. Funny enough, she has been dethroned by someone she knows, who is also a Norwegian singer, AURORA. It was a one-two punch though, because Sigrid has dropped to number three, not number two, with Tessa Violet sliding in at number two. I can't honestly blame the VierLive show entirely for Aurora's rise here, she has been on sort of a slow bubble for a while now in my…
Vi Er Live – Sigrid and Aurora (Somewhere Else, 2020)

Vi Er Live – Sigrid and Aurora (Somewhere Else, 2020)

Last year when I went to see Sigrid in St. Louis, I told my wife afterwards that I wanted to go to more concerts. That plan clearly isn't going to pan out to anything with everything going on. What I have done though is watched quite a few virtual concerts. The Somewhere Else Festival (Et Helt Annet Sted) presented at ViErLive.no is actually the fourth live show I've watched from Sigrid int he past month. The previous being a bit on the Twitch Steam Aid event, a short show on the IGTV from Levis, and one for the opening of…
