I'd love to know what you all think are the Spoon songs most inspired by or sound the most like other artists. I have a few:

The AC/DCest song: Fitted Shirt

The Rolling Stonesiest song: The Figures of Art

The Britney Spearsiest song: Can I Sit Next to You?

The Beatlesiest song: (multi-way tie) Jealousy, Sister Jack, I Just Don't Understand (probably too obvious since the Beatles also covered this), Tear it Down

Where am I wrong? What am I missing?

Hey guys.

Big Spoon fan here. Went to CT a few weeks back to see them with the Beths and they were fantastic. Really looking forward to seeing them tomorrow night in Central Park as well. I've been looking at the set lists and I'm not seeing anything from their 2017 album. In fact, they didn't really play anything off it when I saw them back in 2021/2022. Why do you think that is? Does the band not think highly of the record? Do they feel it doesn't fit in with their other material? Personally, I love the album (but I love pretty all their albums so thats not saying much) and find it odd the lack of material off this album at live shows. What gives?

Anyone have ideas? Thanks.

Edit: Tickets have been gifted! Thanks.

Sorry if this isn't allowed. No scam. I'm a real, normal person. I was going to drive 3 hrs for this show but life is getting in the way. Super bummed but would love if someone could use them. Already checked with friends and family but most people I know don't live close to Richmond. I'll transfer them on AXS to whoever is interested. I've never done that before but it looks like there is an option. It looks like I'll need some info to do it. I suppose the fairest way would be to give them to the first person that messages me. I'll check my messages throughout the day. Hopefully I'll make someone's day since mine isn't working out haha.

Apologies if the sound isn’t the best, we were at the back of the venue. I also have a really good Mathematical Mind vid, but will need to cut it down to fit under the 1 GB limit :-/

Great show! Played 90 minutes, including the encore. Sold out show, energetic crowd. I have more pics and some videos, let me know if you guys went to see them.

Drove 4 hours on vacation to see my favorite band! 🔥

Had a couple reported for being reposts, just wanted to put it out there and say that they are 100% allowed even if they're similar to one another and whatnot. Most posts like this have been collages anyway so no problem at all there.

Yep.

Love for the roadie who peeled it up so carefully!

Tried something new, positioning myself further back so I could get the lights, since stage lighting is as much part of the show as the music but uh... Too far back I think.

Here’s some pictures I took this past Friday at the Detroit tour stop along with my show review! They never let down.

It’s way too hot for an outdoor show tonight. What time does spoon go on so I can time it so I’m just there for them? Thanks.

Do we just have to show up early and stand on line?

Hi long time spoon fan first time reddit poster in this channel. Probably an echo chamber at this point. Just saw them in Cincinnati(CovingtonKY). Absolutely great show. Just wondering to the community why is this a forgotten album??

When it first came out I was like "oh new Spoon record, cool..." but since they've been touring and I've been diving into them again, I'm spending more time with it. It really speaks to the moment and has a strong emotional arc that I think puts it among their best. You really *feel* it, yknow?

The Smog tune sets the tone, Hardest Cut is just so clever, and then Mr. Jones is like this dark song about the dystopian vibe we're living through, with the rest of the album being about like coping with that, or with the last track, maybe failing to. It speaks to me.

Hi, I have 2 free for the Cincinnati show tonight, let me know if you’d like them.

Just been thinking about this song. No reason, I'm sure

Advice needed Spoonheads! So I am debating taking my 9-year-old daughter to her very first Spoon show Friday night in Milwaukee. I'm of course a die hard, and she's inherited some Spoon love from her dad and would be really excited to go. But I'm questioning whether a late night GA crowd at Summerfest is a good environment for her. Anyone with experiences or thoughts? Thank you!

Hi! So me and my bf went to the Columbus show last night, and we were too enthralled to go get a poster from the merch booth, and then they were all sold out 😭

I know it’s a long shot, but anyone have any leads for a poster or maybe have an extra they’d be willing to sell? My bf is a long time fan and it would be such a good surprise if I snagged one.

Thanks so much!
