If you can drop $150 plus tax and shipping for an 8 song record, the LP does look pretty sweet. I’ve been burnt by the idealistic temptation of owning coffee table books in the past. I have 3-4 of those chunky guys collecting dust on my shelf, barely touched. So, this was an easy nope.

It’s a shot of the top of the bleachers at Forest Hills Stadium. But if you’re asking about this as an aesthetic choice, then yeah, dunno. 

Oh, I see. I thought the book cover (which is much worse) was the album cover. It's still not great though.

I’m also personally not really into celebrity/band worship these days. Bands and artists achieve some pretty cool stuff and 20 years is a worthy milestone but these are normal people who happen to be in a successful band and it feels weird having giant font quotes of very important things they’ve said in a huge book on my coffee table. They’re my favorite band but I don’t want post-COVID guests to think I idolize their members. Lol.

I was like how did you discover us just from complaining then I actually looked at the photos and half of them are cosplaying as the band. Dude brought his sunglasses inside and it wasn't to hide red eyes lol.

That’s exactly the picture I used as reference for that statement. Even though I didn’t need that picture to already know the obvious.
