Can't believe it's been a month since we know Island has a release date! Do you think we will get a single first or the past discography on streaming services? Exciting times! I misread that as "Can't believe it's been a month since we know Island's release date" at first and was shocked how I could have missed that

Looks like the Hamburg concert got cancelled: From here. I spent all day worrying my flights were going to be cancelled and was totally willing to risk getting ill or stranded! I hope he'll be back again soon once all this is over!

I anticipated that the Elb show would be cancelled, but Elb's public statement was in fact the first I'd heard of it. I'm disappointed, the show was sold out and I had built a brand new set for it with new projections and everything, but I'll be back in the future when all this viral anxiety has settled down.

Yeah, I'm also really sad it had to be cancelled, though it's really not surprising. The situation here is getting worse by the hour- schools are closed from Monday to at least 19.April, basically all events are getting cancelled (regardless of size), lots of smaller activities are getting cancelled too (like choir practise ), you can't visit people in nursing homes, some cities have cancelled church services, our chancellor has said to avoid any unnecessary social contact... it's honestly getting scary. I'm watching how all life gets shut down. Anyway, I really hope we can get a new concert as soon as it's safe again!

Re: I Will Not Change My Ways -- "Jack says: 'It’s about staying strong in the face of discrimination. With so much uncertainty and fear in the world at this time, I wanted to release something resilient and hopeful. It’s an encouragement to be steadfast, against all odds.'" xfrom the perspective of someone who works in harm reduction in the queer community, the song is so moving <3 Are there official lyrics available or am I just gonna have to listen a bunch and figure them out myself? (EDIT to add: it's a very interesting time to work for a health department in the US, and witness those system failures / justifications in action up close. my employer, a state office, currently holds the policy: "we are opting not to test people, because on the books no one has it, because we aren't testing anyone." it genuinely is as bullshit as it sounds. local community will truly do more for your safety than government, always.)

Lyrics from Jack Colwell's YouTube channel: Take my shoes Shave my head March me down the high street I will not break or bend Whip me on a tree While me at the stocks Curse me under moonlight I'll bleed for what I love Lay me down in dust Lay me down in dirt Cover me in scarlett words I will not let them hurt Tar and feather me I will not change my ways When you look into my eyes You will see I'm someone's son When you stare into my eyes You will see I am your son

I hope you're holding up all right during the pandemic and social distancing, Owen. My wife and I are bummed that many shows and concerts we were looking forward to have been cancelled, but it's better that than get sick or continue to infect others. Looking forward to you coming back to Europe when thing settle into the new normal. Take care, Owen!

The past two or three days, I have been revisiting A Swedish Love Story which can sometimes get lost among its bigger brothers. Joyful to listen to, stuck in lockdown.
