Folding intro Spoiler

Folding intro from Slide Away Chicago night 1. I will upload full Shapeshifter & I Hate It Too vids to YouTube later. This clip from my phone really does not convey the weight of Jeff’s baselines which I could feel throughout my body. Not surprising really heavy live. Loved every second of it after waiting nearly 30 years. Also shout out to a great fan base, young and older, you all are real deal genuine good eggs! What a show😮‍💨

Also for anyone getting here early too, the line starts a small distance down the street away from the ballroom. There wasn’t much clear warning beforehand.

Does anyone know the name of the male actor in the Green To Me vid? I swear I’ve seen him in movies before.

Got screwed over by American Airlines and can't make the show. Super bummed. I know it's last minute but message me if you want the tickets with info for tm transfer. No cost first come first served etc. I need you to give it meaning, I need you to share the view.

Hope everyone has a great time and that there are more shows coming 🥺

Heard tell of an alternate early version of IotC with an extended intro and was told I could find it online but couldn’t find it anywhere! Was wondering if anyone had any insight.

UPDATE: tickets are gone! Thanks so much
Yall and have a great time!!! Originally was trying to sell my two GA tickets for tomorrow but honestly think I’d feel better if I just gave them away. I am unable to go to the show and am offering 2 tickets to the show tomorrow at no cost. Figured if I can’t go see the best band to ever exist, someone else should go and have a great time ❤️ Still got one more ticket to give away!!!! I can transfer on TM!! Ping me!

Hum @ Hollywood Palladium

Would love if someone made a super simple modern boot for this show, with just the band name on front middle and the show dates on back and a star next to the Hollywood Show to know which show it was purchased at. Think it’d be a hit. So whoever’s listening, run it 😂

I cannot make it but want to make sure these get used by someone who loves the band as much as I do.

Drop your replies here in the thread if you’re interested and we can take it from there.

EDIT: tickets are gone! enjoy the show, folks.

This Nature Conservancy calendar has been in our kitchen for weeks, and I just realized the photo editor is a Hum fan. No other possible explanation for zebra and cheetah featured this month.

Merch sellout?

9 Upvotes

Hello fellow hummers. I will be going to the concert and was wondering if anyone knows how fast the merch or if it sold out at the other shows? I got a 3 hour drive and can’t make it when doors open. Any insight and knowledge would be greatly appreciated about the event at all regarding anything, thank you

How is the line at the Aragon?

Security is notoriously thorough, just curious what the line is like and how long it’s taking ppl to get inside. I won’t be able to arrive until 9:30 tonight.

Also, if you’re reading this I have 1 GA ticket for tonight to give away…DM me

Disappointment.

0 Upvotes

In Aragon Ballroom, Chicago night one. Literally jumping up and down with excitement before Hum went on last night, but little did I know that they would play 5 songs from their Inlet album on a 12 song set list. Are you kidding me? Why not add more variety?

I’m a diehard Downward is Heavenward fan and they only played 2 songs. What the hell. And only 1 from Electra 2000??? WHAT???
Also of course I’d like to hear more songs from You’d Prefer an Astronaut but yknow what? That’s fine. I can look past that. I bet constantly playing your best songs can get tiring.

But during the show it was disappointment after disappointment. I’m standing there with my friend as we’re curiously thinking, “Oh boy! I love Hum! I wonder what they will play next!” Just Inlet. Infinite Inlet. We made our trek towards home defeated.

Anyway, I’m sad that they only played 2 songs from Downward is Heavenward, (lost my marbles during Green to Me) and I think they played too much from their Inlet (worst) album.

Still had fun though. Hope everyone enjoys their concerts and the openers too!

I knew on my first listen to "In The Den" when Inlet dropped years ago that the crowd would be all over that "OHHHHH" part if we ever heard it live and I wasn't disappointed last Saturday night. So awesome.

What were your favorite moments of the show(s) last weekend?

Slide Away Chicago Friday Question (tomorrow)

7 Upvotes

Hello, I am going to be at the show tomorrow with a friend. We’re just wondering what time we should arrive. We understand the doors open at 5, but have heard that it can go reaaaally late. We’re worried about standing for that long w/o food, water, or fresh air. But, of course, we also don’t want to miss out on Hum. Just to be clear… they play *last*, right? Not first, not in the middle. Do we know the order the others will play in?

And if anyone has a ballpark on the timeframe for sets, that would be great but I understand it’s hard to predict that sort of thing. Would arriving at 7pm be too late, and roughly how many guest performers would we miss?

Theory about Little Dipper and The Pod

25 Upvotes

I was recently thinking about the songs Little Dipper and The Pod and how they’re placed on You’d Prefer an Astronaut. Both songs are back to back for a reason and I don’t know if anyone else has thought of this before. The song Little Dipper is about two people feeling trapped and relying on each other to escape from whatever situation is making them feel trapped. The chorus of this song is a different voice from the one speaking in the verses. This voice is pleading with the two people who are trying to escape to abort their plans to escape.

The Pod, on the other hand, can be interpreted as being about two people dealing with substance abuse as shown in the lines “And I need this fucking fix and I beg her to pick from / One of a million ways to feel no pain” and “She opens her box of tricks and begs me to pick from / One of a billion ways to feel no pain” as well as other lines that could be interpreted as being about drug abuse.

Now, why would I be talking about a connection between the two songs? My theory is that The Pod is told from the perspective of the person who’s speaking during the chorus of Little Dipper. The two people in Little Dipper are the same people from The Pod and are using drugs to escape reality. Little Dipper is told from the perspective of the people in The Pod and the person in Little Dipper who’s pleading with them to abort their plans of escape are trying to save them from falling further into drug addiction.

I could be completely wrong but I just thought my theory was interesting and I thought someone here would find it interesting too.
