• Iconic Concert at Iconic Venue

  For most of us, going to a concert is a special kind of experience with so many unknowns: Will there be guests? Will you hear your favorite songs, or fresh material that gets you excited for a new album? Will you stand in front of someone who complains about you being too tall? Will someone ask you for a “swallow” of wine? Will you be moved to dance? Or cry? Will this be a night to remember? What turns a good show into an iconic performance? And when that iconic performance is at an iconic venue, well, those are the moments we live for.VIDEOSSparks at Hollywood Bowl singing When Do I Get to Sing "My Way" (2023)Seu Jorge at Hollywood Bowl singing Space Oddity (2017)EXTRASD’oh Re Mi: ‘The Simpsons’ Take the Hollywood BowlSparks Concert Review: Mael Brothers Make It to Hollywood Bowl After 50 Years, Find the Town Is Finally Big EnoughÉtoile clip with SPARKS!Hipster’s Guide to Wes Anderson SoundtracksVice Interview with Seu JorgeReview of the Seu Jorge HB Show (with setlist!)More fan recordings of Seu Jorge at Hollywood Bowl Life on Mars? Different Angle Space Oddity and Queen Bitch (Some classic Hollywood Bowl interactions: dude asking for a “swallow” of wine!)Connect with us on Instagram (to share your song picks or troll us), Spotify (for our ever-growing playlist), and Stereothematica.blog (for extra fun)!

• RE-RELEASE: Mixtape - Song You First Heard on a Mixtape and Still Love

  We’re on a short break until September 2, so we’re rewinding our Mixtape episode. Please press play and relive the joy of swapping songs, discovering new favorites, and maybe falling for Devo all over again.--This week on Stereothematica, we’re diving into the songs we first heard on mixtapes. Whether it was on a carefully curated cassette from a friend, a crush, or a burned CD passed around in high school, these are the tracks that hit different and never left our rotation. We get into the emotional data transfer of mixtapes, and why some songs just stick—even if the relationships didn’t.Videos:Devo: Beautiful World (1981) The Slits: Typical Girls (1979)Extras:Devo performing “That’s Good” on Square Pegs (Correction: Christine mistakenly call it “Good Thing” in the episode)The Slits: I Heard it Through the Grapevine (1979)1999 Target commercial Portlandia Mixologist ClipConnect with us on Instagram (to share your song picks or troll us), Spotify (for our ever-growing playlist), and Stereothematica.blog (for extra fun)!
