[232] anyway, here's wonderwall

Vacation part one of two is over, I am back at work for three days like a crazy person, PHEW. What a ride. My throat remains very mad at me, turns out screaming at the top of your lungs for five uninterrupted hours isn't great for it, who knew, not me! BUT IT WAS WORTH IT. I got to be in attendance for two episodes of Collision, two episodes of ROH, an episode of Dynamite, an episode of Rampage, and what will probably end up being the best PPV of the year. And I've still got four shows left in the tour!

I also went to the movies like five times (Spider-Verse twice, No Hard Feelings because I was desperate, and an Asteroid City/Blackberry double feature) and saw two plays that I will probably give their own post at some point, saw some fishies, hung out with nix a bunch and got to share my weird wrestling thing with her, bought a couple of very bulky books, and never got back to my hostel before 1am a single time. GOOD TRIP.

Got home early on Canada Day, showered and napped for several hours the instant I got back to my bedroom, and then saw the new Indiana Jones with my mom, so I'm feeling much more human than I was yesterday, ready to recharge my batteries properly and set off anew! I'm actually finding being at work weirdly relaxing? Gross.



Wikipedia Sez: (What's the Story) Morning Glory? is the second studio album by English rock band Oasis. Released on 2 October 1995 by Creation Records, it was produced by Owen Morris and the group's lead guitarist and main songwriter Noel Gallagher. The structure and arrangement style of the album were a significant departure from the group's previous album Definitely Maybe (1994). Gallagher's compositions were more focused in balladry and placed more emphasis on "huge" choruses, with the string arrangements and more varied instrumentation contrasting with the rawness of the group's debut album. Morning Glory was the group's first album with drummer Alan White, who replaced Tony McCarroll (though McCarroll still appeared on the album, drumming on the track "Some Might Say").

Genre: Pop/Rock

Styles: Alternative Pop/Rock, Alternative/Indie Rock, British Trad Rock, Britpop, Contemporary Pop/Rock, Hard Rock, Rock & Roll

Release Date: October 2nd, 1995

Prior Familiarity: High. Are there even any other Oasis albums? Every song I know from them is on this.

What I Did While Listening: Lay in my hostel bunk, cooling off from another muggy Toronto day, staring at the roof, and vibing.

Verdict: It's pretty solid! About as good as this era of britpop gets to my ears.

Favourite Song: Don't Look Back in Anger

Would be really cool if my ears would finish popping some time this year, though. God, I hate everything about flying.
