i dont like concerts where the pre-show music is so loud no one can talk unless they shout awkwardly which probably isn’t very good for anyone’s hearing any way
all future grimes shows will be dj’d thusly 

Grimes, you are aaallllllright in my books.

Growing up I went to the Nutcracker every year because my sister was a dancer. I was always totally enraptured. I memorized the music. This one is one of my favourite dances.

The Nutcracker, Op. 71a: XIIIb. Character Dances - Coffee (Arabic Dance): Commodo.

Bonn Classical Philharmonic, Heribert Beissel.
