@fcdwhittaker.bsky.socialJust a PSA to say Death Cab were the best I’ve ever seen them last night at the Troxy. They played What Sarah Said and plenty of others from Plans (wonderful given we didn’t get a 20th anniversary tour), and my word live music is a wonderful, if brief, distraction from a horrifying world

@fcdwhittaker.bsky.socialAfter 30+ listens I’m ready to say: Lost Weekend is a masterpiece. Bobby is one of the most uplifting love songs I’ve ever heard. I Can’t Wait and As Above are the best tracks. It’s better than SITA but not better than Punisher because, crucially, I don’t think anything will ever beat I Know the End
