      Time flies!!! I think it was yesterday I was watching the Glasgow bus riding content on social medias.
      So many memories holding in my heart… The time I joined the fandom on my early 20’s, the very-first time meeting and seeing Travis live in Santiago 2014 (seeing and waving at them again two years later in the same city holding my Pipe Dreams sign😂), hanging out with my Travis friends, living the show experiences with them… My inner fangirl is happy to live experiences I never thought I would live… This is what dreams are made of. I loved Fran having that orange hairstyle, please come back hahaha.

      Happy belated 2nd Anniversary, L.A. Times! 😅

      This era will always have a special place in my heart as it is when I happen to fall down the Travis rabbit hole on YouTube and fell deeply in love with their catalogue as I made my way through all the albums.

      For me, this album and the tour is really special. I had assumed it would just be another album, with absolutely no chance of seeing them perform live around here. “Gaslight” was a good choice for a lead single, but “Naked in NYC” was the track that really grabbed me when I first listened to the album and followed the whole era.🫶

      I love this album so damn much ❤️ It will forever remind me of my dog, who was sadly put down almost a year ago now. I made a video of our last trip together with “The River” playing.

        So sorry to hear about your dog🫂 The River definitely is my one of my favs from the album, such an inspiring track!

      Am I the only one who finds LA times a bit middling? Its nowhere near the high standard of 10 Songs for me and feels a but rushed. Theres some stuff I really like, such as Bus, Gaslight, Raze the Bar and The River, but most of the rest if it feels pretty mid to me. I Hope You Spontaneously Combust and LA Times are downright terrible. I appreciate trying to do something different with Fran rapping, and I absolutely LOVE that he’s not afraid to be cringe, but its still pretty naff. Probably wouldnt have even been a b side back in the day.

        Fran’s advice about cringe is my fav thing ever: Do what you love, life is too short to care what others would say about us, let’s be happy❤️

        I agree with you. I appreciated the attempt to do something different and songs like Bus, Gaslight, Naked in NY city and The River are really great songs and I love the sharp wit in I Hope that you spontaneously combust. The other songs are good but not great, it feels like they had no enough time to work on it. Plus,I don’t like the sound mixing , there’s a sort of constant background noise and the sound seems too “compressed”.
        10 songs is x1000 times better to me.

      It’s not a rap, it’s spoken word. And one of the standout tracks on this album, along with Alive and Bus.
      It’s always nice to hear others’ connection and stories to the different records.

        As Fran said once, be like: This is the Glaswegian way (speaking) 🥰🤭

      Can’t believe it’s been 2 years already but I’m definitely excited about the new album. Gaslight was definitely a fun start to LA Times. And all of the hints about LA times kept me entertained!
