“met the lead singer of young bloods today, he’s like super polite and 7 feet tall i swear?????”
LOOOOOOOOOK i’ve gotten a bunch of sightings in my asks and i won’t post them all but btwn the early morning brunch and someone who said they literally LITERALLY literally saw wick casually putting his fingers in the kid’s mouth outside the venue, i don’t think “dating” rly needs to be in quotes like maybe “fucking” vs “dating” i guess lmao
my guess is you’re a hannah/wick shipper which is fine but hannah has a cute director bf rn leave my queen alone, she deserves to be happy with someone who will treat her way better than wick ever did imo
lmao guyssssssss
i would be more surprised if it weren’t a date, wick doesn’t hang out with anyone he’s not fucking. we saw it happen with hannah, lo, genie, etc. anyways i’m not the biggest fan of him fucking around with a youtuber but he’s not as young as he looks and he seems nice in the videos i’ve watched and if it gets us more wick content then FINE put him in your dumb staged shit
“i fluctuate between extreme discomfort and general disinterest, but the dis-of-it-all is always present. distemper, sometimes. the modern world’s distemper. disillusion. i make music to be listened to in a very superficial way and dissected in solitude, should such a path be chosen by the listener, and music journalism over the years has grown into a many headed creature that insists on that sort of more voracious consumption at the start. at you, you know, prodding people for soundbytes on genius.com and think pieces. anyway, i don’t like to complain. i have the luxury of doing a job in which people are interested in what i have to say about the intricacies of my work, and i deny them that at every turn, so i guess being beckoned forth to sit here with you in this - this very small chair, honestly - and talk about how i don’t like to talk is a very grand display of the west’s narcissism in and of itself. anyway. i’m self aware enough to know how dull and pretentious i sound, so that’s gotta count for something.”
- wick wickham for pitchfork’s “songwriters on songs” series 2017
highlights & lowlights from santa ana 25 june 2018 @ the observatory
+ 8 minute cape cod ok like check your priorities and put your phone down for this one these are some Good and Talented Boys™
- idk if i really like what chelsea’s bg vox bring to the band like yb don’t exactly n e e d femme vox u kno?
+ wick and robbie and mason seemed so HAPPY and i was so worried it’d be weird seeing them without ali but they were chatty as ever and robbie really stepped up to banter with wick and my heart is so full you guys
- hannah elton was there and i’m not a hater ass bitch but i really really wanted hannah hunt and as we all kno he never plays it when she’s lurking!!!
+ but it gave me this great wick moment so idc “my friend hannah is here [everyone clapped me excluded because i knew what was coming] so that means i don’t have to play hannah hunt, by the grace of god [everyone BOOED me included]” and then “take your woes up with her, she’ll be at the merch table signing vinyl later” (i wish tbh)
+/- idk what’s going on btwn wick and the youtuber kid but he was there tonight right next to me for the whole show, front row, losing his shit - it was kind of cute and kind of good for me because any time wick looked down at him he made eye contact with me too and it was like a bunch of times??? i thought about introducing myself but didn’t b/c idk i should’ve since i saw a couple ppl asking him for selfies but i’m not into yt like that so i wouldn’t have even known wtf to say
+/- he’s british af btw that’s not a + or - just fyi
+ mason’s parents were there!!! and it was mason’s mom’s birthday and we sang happy birthday to her!!!!
- genes wasn’t there
- daisy wasn’t there
-/+ they played the first few chords of diane young and then wick laughed and said “just kidding” and they played oxford comma instead WHY CAN’T I HAVE BOTH GOD
- no encore and for two seconds i thought wick was trying to pull me on stage but he brought the youtube kid on stage instead and then the kid started blowing kisses to the crowd and some ppl were cheering but some (aka me) were like “wtf” and wick came back out and literally GRABBED HIM BY THE BACK OF THE NECK and pulled him off stage like a puppy and i was screaming and then they never came back and that was the end of my yb experience and i can’t fucking wait to do it all again tonight bitchessssssssss
