Welcome to Night Vale, anyone?
« on: April 21, 2015, 02:50:06 PM »
Hello! I was just thinking that I don't have too many friends who listen to this show, so it'd be cool to meet some other people and/or introduce the SSSS fandom to it.

If you like creepy things that are also funny in a quirky way, you should definitely check out this podcast. The voice acting is amazing and the music is also really good. They've been going for almost 3 years now and there's this whole mythology built up around it, it. is. great.

Anyway, feel free to discuss anything and everything WTNV related here!

I went to the presentation in Victoria B.C. - It was a splendid evening, to say the least. It was held at the music conservatory, which is a converted church, so the music sounded awesome and the atmosphere was amazing.

Oh, I think I saw pictures from there! Or, of the church at least.

I've only listened to a few podcasts but oh my goodness it's amazing. It's just the kind of creepy/cool atmosphere that I like.

I'm a few eps behind, but have them on my phone, ready to be listened to!
I was thinking of trying to get tickets to the Copenhagen show, but I think they sold out pretty quickly, and I didn't feel like going on my own.

I can confirm that Carlos does indeed have perfect hair and is basically an all-around great human being.

Yeah, I was up like two hours before the tickets went on sale, refreshing like the wind XD I'm kind of sad that they didn't go to Canada on this most recent tour, hopefully they'll come back soon!

I just started listening to this, actually! I'm only on like the sixth episode, but I love it! I keep laughing at stuff and when I try to describe it my family looks at me like I'm crazy. It's great. XD

I know! It's so hard to explain what makes it great without like, forcing people to listen. I've tried, and it only seems to work some of the time.

I've only listened to like maybe 3 podcasts (back when I had free tiiiime) and I loved it.... And I love seeing all the WTNV and fandom stuff and save them on my phone to look at on dreary days... So... Consider me a fan too? :3

Just got caught up on it. I've been into it for a while, unfortunately, I was out in the middle of nowhere when they were touring last or I would have tried to see them.

At least you got it to work some of the time! Really, even when they hear snippets all I get is O_o as a reaction. There is nothing I can do to make them stay and listen. One day, I shall succeed...
