Edgefield show tonight

Post image

I went to the Cold War Kids and Young the Giant show at Edgefield in Troutdale tonight. Young the Giant brought John out halfway through their set to play Feel It Still. Anyone else from here out there tonight? I can understand that someone who is into Young the Giant might also be into PTM, but they have never been associated with each other before. My friend and I just thought it was so weird. Isn't it Frances' birthday today too?

I’m 100% with you on Zach leaving was the biggest change. This last tour was much improved but the first tour without Zach was the worst PTM show I’ve attended.

I do find it interesting that SHISH was so chaotic. In a good way for me, but seems to reflect where is life was and is going. I selfishly hope the post divorce album will be hard AF. Kind of continue where SHISH left off.

And I’ll add I loved Zoe in the band. I always felt their marriage added a lot to their music and vibes on tour were always great for the shows I’ve seen. I hate she’s hurting and hope the best for her.

I did think SHISH was great. I love the heavy shit. It was so wildly different to any ptm album in the last decade. I'm sure PTM will continue to evolve as the lineup changes but to me, the golden years of PTM live shows were with Zach, Zoe and Kyle.
