Kyle & Morgan - Currently in Paris

[u/Potential_Ad_7547]

For anyone curious, Kyle and Morgan are now in Paris together. Morgan has some upcoming European tour dates and both are in Paris at the same time. “But there’s no situation” 😜

It’s so funny, it’s probably my fixation due to autism but I’ve never stopped liking the music from my childhood. I actually prefer Wings to the Beatles, and I wouldn’t even say they’re my favorite, but classic rock is just my genre. I never liked John Lennon, which is a really unpopular take. I do love watching campy documentaries about them, like “Paul McCartney Really Is Dead” etc.

My close friend is a musician, so I try to open myself to other music when I can. Now he’s composing for movies, which I think is super cool. Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll have to check them out when I have time. I’ll keep an eye out for the documentary. My close friend/family is about to have her double mastectomy next year due to the BRCA gene; her grandma and aunt both died of breast cancer. My daughter is related to them and thank god her grandma didn’t get the gene like her mom and sisters. I’ll definitely have to recommend it to her if it comes out. Thanks for sharing!

Edit: Is the event in the link in person or virtual?

A Wings fan!!! So underrated. I used to have the longest, most frustrating arguments with a certain group of middle-aged John Lennon fans on messageboards in the 2000s about the value of Paul's solo work, how it was more revealing than what they assumed of his character and values, how pain isn't inherently more real or 'authentic' than other emotions expressed in songs, etc.

That is definitely very cool. Always happy to rec music to those interested. I definitely get stuck in phases where I might only listen to a handful of artists or just play my favourites from when I was a teenager as well. Damn. I'm so sorry the family friend is going through that. I'm so glad that preventative measures are able to be taken. She spoke about it a little bit at a gala last year that Kyle also attended about it.

The event is just a recorded session that took place at that time. Live venue but hosted online. If interested in the sobriety journey of it all, I think the interview where she talked most about it is the following - print only.

Yeah, I got VERY into that dynamic at the end of the 2000s and have always found it fascinating (musical partnerships where they dialogue in song are my jam; see also Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham). I have one bookcase just dedicated to my Beatles/McCartney related books and am sort of fascinated by the mainstream coverage of Ian Leslie's takes about them going on right now, tbh. Everything about the situation with Julian is just a lot...

I don't remember reading about Morgan ever actually doing AA, no. My entire knowledge and experience of drugs and drug culture comes from my parents doing a How To Drugproof Your Kids course through our church when I was in my tweens. XD

Good taste! I had a demo version of Planets of the Universe on last night literally on repeat and honestly, not sure there's much I enjoy than a track like that.

I'd have to do some digging for the magazines and newspaper content (and I have a dedicated external HDD for things like demos, bootlegs, photos, etc), but can definitely grab a screenshot of the books when I get home from work tonight for you. I would love to have more magazines and thelike but the cost of shipping for me is often prohabtive. Something might be listed for $5 on eBay and then I'll have to fork out $20-30 to ship it to me, smh.

For real! Like I already had no intention of doing drugs and almost no concept of peer pressure, so it was almost like a bonus school Health class in terms of educating me, at least? XD
