ninth

ode to joy [click to embiggen]

If Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony were ever an opera, Buggs, I kind of don’t think it would involve stabbing. Because ODE TO JOY.

I was pretty sure she meant Mr Bugg’s music, but ok.

I wouldn’t dream of pointing out their error. In fact, I am just going to die right here because Mr Bugg as Robert and Mrs Bugg as Gallup MELTS MY VERY FUCKING SOUL.

not that Das Ich

THAT Das Ich put on one of the best shows I’ve ever seen in my life, in a grubby little bar in Tempe. I had goosebumps for just about the entire set. Fantastisch!

Not only could you be pop stars, Buggs, but you could be THE BEST POPSTARS EVER IN THE HISTORY OF EVER.

Bugg music is weird, y’all.

buggpop

Loki’s unabashed loved of Jpop and Kpop has brought us to this. Clearly the Buggs support his love, and were probably only too happy to dress up and fart on cue!

She looks really sad about it, but it seems to have been inevitable.

Mrs Bugg is so cute when she blushes.

Can you blame them? Sleeping in is glorious.

Don’t worry, Mrs Bugg — he comes back safely.

My favorite! The Buggs know me so well.

Not a huge fan of Mr Dylan, but he’s been a big influence on music ever since, so …

violin concerto

I do believe this is the Buggs’ first violin! Although I rather suspect they chose this even because it happened in Leipzbug.

I am not gonna lie: The Blues Brothers is a very important film in my world. Not least because it’s set against a fantastic backdrop of blues and what it can be like to be in a band, but mostly because I’m from Chicago and Chicago is practically the third star of the movie.

Also, it contains the best example of what happens in Chicago all the time: Where people in the street randomly start to dance. True story. We all learn group choreography in PE, and we’re not supposed to tell anyone, but I like you guys, so.

ANYWAY. I love that the Buggs got to watch this, and I love even more that they are cosplaying the brothers. SO MUCH LOVE.
