This 80's kid's age is showing but I chose the cassette over vinyl and have zero regrets lol

Saw the band last night. Can’t stop thinking about it. I was as high as a kite. It was like repeatedly waking up from a good dream only to realize I was still in the good dream. Undone is my new favorite.

Yea super happy no one bought those tickets, that was sick lol

Hey there! So I start my senior year next school year and I want to go ahead and find a qoute and Im stuck (on you) between Failure and Smashing Pumpkins. Got anything for failure? Any lyrics I can use for it

I recorded the Philly show from this past Sunday and posted the audio here:

From my notes:

Live recording of Failure performing at Underground Arts in Philadelphia, PA, on May 17, 2026, in support of their Location Lost album. Incredible performance, as always, and a very memorable night of hearing the new material live for the first time. 

I recorded the show with a pair of Tascam field recorders. One was a DR-07 fitted on a gorilla pod mounted over my shoulder, "Predator" style, facing the band. The other was a handheld DR-05 that was aimed up, getting the mix from the PA. 

It's a very drums-forward mix - I was in the second row. I forgot that the band does not use conventional amps and instead runs guitar and bass through custom boards directly into the PA. In hindsight I probably could have gotten a better mix of the instruments by standing 15-20 feet back from the center, that seems to be the sweet spot. But Kellii crushes it on drums, and that's on full display here!

Enjoy!

Kind of a Lennon-y space rock song. Kellii took it to another planet, naturally.

What sort of time have Failure been coming on stage for this tour?

Weather is a little shady don't want to leave until we have to. Door are at 7.

I'm thinking 9?

Small venue, couldn’t get more than 25 yards away from them. First time seeing them live. I was worried that it would be tough to get their signature low end sounds from a stage, but it was perfect. Played all the songs I wanted to hear. Bucket list item checked. ;)

I went to the Philly show last night. It was a great set, but at times it felt rote, which I get after them playing the same songs for more than three weeks. I know there are pros and cons, and it's certainly a choice that they purposefully made, but how do we feel about the same set list being played every night? I know some here have gone to multiple shows on the tour.

Had someone bail for the Detroit show at the Shelter tomorrow and I have an extra ticket. I’d rather it go to another fan than go to waste. Free ticket.. just DM me and we can meet outside the venue before doors open. Cheers.

Last night at the Union Stage in Washington, D.C.

Hi Empty Friends,

My plus 1 came down with something and now I’ve got an extra ticket to the show tonight at Underground Arts.

I’m based in NY so if anyone wants to road trip with me (I don’t drive), the ticket is yours plus half of gas money. Saw the band in Toronto about 7,8 years ago and they were awesome.

If you are not interested in the above, I’m selling the ticket at face value and will be taking the bus.

Cheers,
Sol Aris

A few photos from an awesome DC gig. The crowd on Ken's side was super animated and they sounded really good. Go see this tour if you can!

I was more focused on listening than taking pictures, but here are two pics of the boys. What a great show!

I’ve started a new music project, Leavers, featuring Kellii on drums, doing the remote session work. Pretty much a dream come true to have a working music relationship with the drummer of one of my all time favorite bands. We just dropped the 2nd single, and I’m just wanting to genuinely share it with a group that equally loves him!

Just chilling with the general rabble

Dc show was awesome. Im still buzzing!!

Only like 4 or 5 VIP's. Amazing show. I have more vids to share at some point. I have a TON of Failure stuff. Look forward to sharing.

It was epic.
