She has such a pretty voice. Great choice for an opening act.

Just wanted to say thank you for responding to my post yesterday. I was grieving hard over a beloved pet that I had just put to sleep and I looked at my mail and saw your answer to my question. It may not mean anything to you both but it meant the world to me and cheered me up. Thank you for appreciating your fans enough to interact with us. You both have tons of integrity. 🥰

Hey Tegan,

That was cool! I agree, from the sounds of that you’ll get along fine, (from what I know about you and Sara too of course). It was funny when she said about getting to know your music in 2008, cause I’m very good at separating my dates to T&S dates (hopefully that makes sense). What I mean is, I was 10 in 2017, right, but I don’t think ‘I was 10 then’ when I’m watching the con x tour recordings. Although it is weird for me when I think I wasn’t alive for your first 4 albums! I wish I’d been alive for at least So Jealous. For me I have to separate the dates cause every time I think about the con I don’t want to think ‘I was 1’. You see what I mean? Anyway, my point was it was weird when SB/Tomberlin said ‘2008’ because, cause it was Tomberlin my brain went ‘wow I was only 2’. Hopefully that tangent was Vaguely interesting?

Getting back onto topics more related to this post, the second you announced that you’d be touring with Tomberlin I started listening to some of her music and while I don’t at all regret it, I did originally start listening cause I assumed she’d come with you next year to Australia! (🤞🏼)! I realised a couple weeks ago that there’s no guarantee of that at all, but still good music!

From the sounds of the substack zoom, I know more about Tomberlin’s music than Sara does. LOL! (In Sara’s Defence she was busy learning to look after Sid at the time.)

Thanks for the post! I love how unique a singing voice Tomberlin has!

PS: is this me being narcissistic or did you put the apology about not having the audio cause you knew that I’d bug you if you didn’t?! 😁🤩

Me editing- I just realised that I’m pretty sure I only said this to Sara, but thanks for doing rage! It was awesome! It was great seeing your song selections and seeing Closer, Yellow and The Con on a big screen! I loved it! Unrelated to ‘rage’ but did you cut your mullet again Tegan? Saw the photos today, need more photos!!!

Ooo nice Q+A, I must give her a listen then.

I’m sure she must be great for you to want her to open for you.

Plus that tweet from 2015 is a real gem. 🙂😂

Every time you have an opening act I end up becoming a fan of them. When you had Shura open up for been following her Career ever since I saw her open for you on I think it was the Love You

To Death Tour. I will definitely give this artist a listen. Reading this article keeps getting more excited for tour!!!

This is the best thing I've read all week (and it's been a week, and it's not nearly over yet). Streamed IDKWNTHT when the tour was announced and think it's brilliant. I am really looking forward to this show.
