Spooky Angel Fairy Princess Demon: A Night With Spiritbox

Show NotesConcert Experience: - Attended Spiritbox's sold-out show at Rockwell (The Complex, SLC). - Observations on the diverse crowd and high female representation compared to typical metal shows. - Praise for the band's dynamic live performance, visuals, and tight set design. - Standout songs: “Holy Roller”, “Soft Spine”, “No Loss, No Loss”, and “Crystal Roses”. - Courtney LaPlante described as a "spooky angel fairy princess demon" for her mesmerizing stage presence.Setlist & Discography Thoughts: - Breakdown of Spiritbox's unique release strategy: multiple EPs and singles instead of traditional albums. - Discussion of their rapid rise following "Holy Roller" and how they've kept momentum by staying in the public eye with frequent releases. - Comparison to Weird Al's release philosophy in the digital age.Opening Acts: - Thoughts on Dying Wish (humorously misread as "Dingwish") and Loathe. - Energy and effort were appreciated, but the music didn't quite land with either host.Group Outing: - The joy of going with a group: Hayden, Liv, Jess, and Jon joined for dinner and the show. - Reflections on the generational experience of concerts and aging at shows ("these kids don't stand anymore").Resistance Training = Fountain of Youth: - Peter shares evidence-based insights on how strength training can improve longevity, skin quality, recovery, and overall health. - Emphasizes the role of muscle in balance, injury prevention, and post-surgical recovery. - "Pick something up, put it down, repeat until you're nearly out of gas -- that's the magic."
