    Watched The Midnight play at the Academy in my hometown of Manchester just two days ago. Incredible performance by everyone on stage. Played all the hits while the singing crowd almost drowned out the band on occasions. Unforgettable! Love from England.

      I had a shortlist of songs I hoped to hear. Among them, Days of Thunder, Gloria, Vampires. They didn’t disappoint. Gotta say that Jason blew me away though, because it was the first song I stumbled across by the band several years ago and loved. Plus, I appreciate the duet… and Lillia (hope I got her name right) did a great job with the vocals and stage presence.

    I really appreciate Tim's appreciation for Emo. It really was the last time music dictated culture and lifestyle instead the other way around. Also, Tyler's Crystalline explanation sorta blew my mind. I've recently got into his solo stuff as well. I really loved this interview!!! Thank you to both of you gentlemen for doing this.

    The first record I've ever owned was Monsters on vinyl. I never really felt like buying music, I usually just streamed it. But I started listening to The Midnight's music late 2019 in my senior year of high school. The lore and setting of the album really made me fall in love with it becuse it resonated so well with me at the time.
    Also I loved hearing more in-depth from Tim and Tyler, keep up the great videos guys.

And my first album was the single “That’s What Friends Are For” by Dionne Warwick and Friends. I still remember the album jacket with a photo of Dionne, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, and Gladys Knight. Thanks for an enjoyable hour!
