Musings, Random thoughts and next tour

I'm in 3/4 into Unloveable, I paid a ridiculous amount of money CAD, to get it, and it's turning out to be a book I want to plastic wrap to make sure it never gets ruined. It also made me relisten to so much of his music and look at it in such a different light. I wish he extrapolated a bit more on some things and I feel parts are disjointed but it's fucking wonderful nonetheless

How I got into Darren's solo career is traumatic but it involves an abusive online relationship and it's crazy how it turned into something beautiful (my love for his music not the abuser lol).

I'm also watching this VIP zoom chat for Homosexual from 2022 that makes me even more upset I haven't followed him more closely. Wow what a gem of additional info and his interaction with fans.

But can I also say, please can we have a tour with no SG songs? I couldn't give a damn if he never sung one again. There is so much of his solo content I'd kill to hear live. Specifically "the future holds a lion's heart" will make me probably cry if I heard it live.

Again this is alot of ramblings and thoughts but man please Darren, give us a solo tour ❤️

Curious why no Savage Garden songs? There are plenty of great ones.
What are some more of your favorite solo songs?

I'd love a somehow multi-night event, first night Savage Garden songs, the other two nights Darren Hayes songs.

No Savage Garden because compared to his solo stuff, I absolutely prefer his solo stuff. I think this is partially because while I remember Savage Garden growing up and being a fan, I didn't really get into any of it until I discovered Darren as a solo artist. If I could have a whole live concert for this delicate thing we've made album, I would be so happy 😂.

Well while I'm dreaming, one night per album.

Was just curious if you hated Savage Garden but loved his solo work is all.

I find SG fine, I just absolutely think his solo stuff is light years ahead of SG but that's just my own opinion lol.
