Wonderful moment at the show last night:
Singer: "It's way too hot in here, let's maybe relax for a bit. Let's all sit down for this one."
And then they and the bassist went to sit in the middle of the stage, and the audience of probably 50-100 people all followed suit. We listened to the whole song from the floor.
unrelated reminder that the UK metal festival Bloodstock had to ask performers to not swear during stage banter because if the wind is right the audio carries a mile and a half to a nearby WW1 memorial graveyard
and apparently while music just sounds like white noise at that distance, someone shouting "ARE YOU HAVING A FUCKING GOOD TIME YOU BASTARDS" over the PA is recognisable and so they had some complaints

@Felthry "trololol you think the universe is made out of /things/..."
A recurring motif in this book is a three-pointed milky way hanging above a barren world made of glass, and fuck that's a compelling image. I kinda want art of that.
