#(went to a show where david vertesi opened when he was touring as their bassist)

things i learned from the @saidthewhale hawaiii anniversary show today

teen lincoln was something of a superfan (i have a photo of me with stw wearing this shirt too lmao)

“safe to say” is about something that happened at a safeway (you will now never be able to unhear this. thanks ben!)

someone on their american team thought “mother” was a coming out song bc he misheard “half a man” as “hot for men”

there’s a really cool story behind the hawaiii album cover: it’s a photo of ww2 aces taking up a bet to fly real real low, and tyler managed to get in contact with the ace in that plane!

whale fact: if you make a phone me gesture with your hand and hold it on top of your head, that’s how much blubber you would have if you were a beluga — according to an audience member who used to work at the aquarium!

stw can perform the entirety of hawaiii and islands disappear in just under 2 hours

#said the whale #concert log #thanks to winona forever’s ben for soliciting the whale facts lmao #lincoln opened for stw which is in keeping with stw tradition ha #(went to a show where david vertesi opened when he was touring as their bassist)
