this was a beautiful moment for me. les mis, the most important musical ever to me, live. and what a perfect production, oh my goodness. nick cartell as jean valjean is incredible. can you imagine doing 1500+ shows as jvj. unexpectedly angelic voice. renewed my love and affection for the old man 💗 enjolras makes me soooo excited. i heard the beginning of abc cafe/red and black and got SOOO excited. when he went into do you hear the people sing... heck yes. i was so happy during one day more. i was so so happy. and the barricades were devastatingggggg me when at gavroche's death he disappears behind the barricade, his voice echoing across the stage, everyone frozen while looking at him except for grantaire who's center front turned towards the audience with his head down... me when grantaire's the last to die on the barricades. me when they wheel enjolras's body out and the light shines on him and slowly fades. i got through most of it without crying but i was done for when jvj said « it's the story of those who always loved you » and when we got to « to love another person is to see the face of god » oh les mis you will always be famous.
2026 - HIGH SCHOOL PRODUCTION - original show by stephen sondheim and hugh wheeler
musical watch - february 26, 2026
rahhhhh my old high school's so awesomeeeee. the production design was TOP TIER. impeccable lighting and sets and makeup. PIRELLI WAS REALLY FUNNY. and johanna's voice was heavenly, the best in the cast, i understand why anthony fell in love with her. the most captivating in general however was TOBY !!!!!! what a talented kid, and she's a ninth grader as well. sweeney todd's an interesting one for me because i knew the general plot including most of the twists, but i didn't remember a lot of how they actually played out so it was crazy to go through it again and rediscover OH SHIT, THATS HOW . OHHH NO. etc. shoutout my friend who i watched with, we were clutching our heads in distress together. shoutout also the 67 joke. IT WAS ANTHONY'S UNDERSTUDY WHO WAS ON AND AT THE ASYLUM HE ACCIDENTALLY DROPPED THE GUN PROP AND HAD TO PICK IT UP AND IT SO ADDED TO THE MOMENT. god i love anthony and johanna

2026 - mika
album listen - january 22, 2026
what a fucking experience. so weird and wonderful. surprisingly thematically coherent, bordering even on concept album - as one person on tumblr put it, kind of like a sci fi rock opera you find at like 13 and it changes your life. « hyperlove and living, just a part of modern times » ... grappling with this hyperconnected world and asking what love and connection and humanity truly mean in the face of these unprecedented times... love being at the centre of it all... there was a moment it felt like i was somewhere else, far from where i really was, but also i was very much a teenager dancing in my bedroom. stream nicotine
