Next was a band I have seen before but have grown quite fond of due to their cover of ’80s hit “Africa.” That’s right, Weezer would soon take the stage with one of the brightest old-school rock band stage designs I’ve had the pleasure of seeing. I’m looking forward to partying to The Interrupters set again sometime soon, even if it’s in the comfort of my own home. ![]() Certainly, a great introduction for the madness of the Hella Mega Tour, and as the band would put it, they were quickly becoming a “stadium rock band” before our very eyes. I can confirm I was singing the lyrics to their song, “A Friend Like Me,” in my head where they would stay until this morning. Pumping through their fast-paced set certainly made the wait for Weezer to come on stage more enjoyable. But, am now a fan of would get fans out of their seats and just overall having a fun time. In turn, keeping me from going completely insane.Īfter about a mile and a half walk through the Gaslamp Quarter in downtown San Diego, because screw paying $50 for stadium parking, concert-goers were in for a party of a time with opening act The Interrupters, a band I was not familiar with. And, while now might not exactly be the right time for full-blown concerts to be taking place, these three rock bands, with the help of The Interrupters, brought classic rock stadium vibes back to Petco Park in San Diego, CA. But the guys have a knack for big, dumb and irresistible stompers - from “Longview” to “Holiday” to “When I Come Around” - that draw from the energy of punk and the archness of ’60s Britpop.It’s been almost two years since Green Day, Fall Out Boy, and Weezer announced their cross country stadium tour, dubbed the Hella Mega Tour. It’s kind of amazing Green Day are still a huge draw some 27 years after the release of their breakthrough album “Dookie,” which was literally named after excrement. ![]() It helps that the band embraced their role as emo’s Smash Mouth and started releasing singles that sample the theme song from “The Munsters.”) ![]() On Monday night, Wentz’s face was kind of sour, but he had a few fun moments like his story about how the band’s manager told them “the kids don’t really listen to rock music.” (The manager is not entirely wrong FOB is one of the few guitar-driven rock bands that Top 40 radio still plays. But, as always, he lacks even a whiff of charisma as a frontman and lets bassist Pete Wentz act as the public face of the band.ĬHICAGO, ILLINOIS – AUGUST 15: Patrick Stump (L) and Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy perform during the Hella Mega Tour at Wrigley Field on Augin Chicago, Illinois. Lead singer Patrick Stump remains a vocal powerhouse and, if anything, his unexpected break from touring may have further strengthened his pipes. Weezer already put out two new albums this year and Cuomo says he’s got four more seasonally themed records he’ll release over the course of 12 months.įall Out Boy played for an hour as well, which is just the right amount of time to endure the Chicago foursome. Lead singer Rivers Cuomo - who has gleefully encouraged Weezer to transform into a living meme - now has a mullet because, of course he does. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images)Īfter a brief opening set from Los Angeles ska punk band the Interrupters (whose single “She’s Kerosene” is literally upsetting), Weezer took the stage for a polished hour that managed to survey their entire career, from “Undone - The Sweater Song” and “Buddy Holly” to “All My Favorite Songs” and (shudder) their cover of Toto’s “Africa.” Rivers Cuomo of Weezer performs during The Hella Mega Tour at Citi Field on Augin New York City. The crowd - heavy with craft beer/bike dad types and all-growed-up now suburban punks - seemed happy to get back to some sense of concertgoing normalcy and cheered, sang along and jumped around to all the big hits in an evening full of them. ![]() Whatever the case, with a nearly sold-out ballpark, it stands as the metro’s biggest concert since Garth Brooks filled U.S. (Plus, nothing’s really about Gen X, because other generations don’t really acknowledge Gen X.) Weezer, meanwhile, manages to score a big, if utterly shameless, radio hit every year or so. Fall Out Boy’s first wave of success in the mid-’00s coincided with Green Day’s massive second wave. It’s tempting to classify Monday night’s Hella Mega Tour stop at Target Field as an evening of Gen X nostalgia, given that two of the three main acts - Green Day and Weezer - saw their careers skyrocket in the post-Nirvana ’90s.īut the presence of Fall Out Boy on the bill proved it was really more about millennial nostalgia. ![]() ![]() Bertrand abandoned the group one member died, and the others fled. At one point he was part of a group called The Bevy, which may have been this group. Lord Ariks Eshteross hired Bertrand as part of a group to look into the Ivory Syndicate. Due to his prompt departure before Shanak crafted statues of Vox Machina and Lieve'tel, Bertrand was likely not included among them.īetween "The Search For Bob" (Sx45) and Campaign Three Lieve'tel chased after him to try and convince him otherwise. Upon returning to Whitestone from Pandemonium, Bertrand immediately declared that he never wanted to see Vox Machina again, he was retiring right then, and left the group. So when the group decided they wanted a fruit to inspect, Bertrand was goaded into getting it. When the group came across an odd metallic fruit-bearing tree, Bertrand claimed to know its type. Or as she put it herself, "I rang his Bell." In Scanlan's Magnificent Mansion, Lieve'tel 'invited' Bertrand to spend the night with her. He fought alongside Vox Machina against both the howlers and the empyrean, although he fell and remained unconscious in the latter combat. Regardless, he nervously assisted in their search to rescue Grog's soul from Pandemonium, even taking the charge into the sandstorms when they first arrived, albeit in the wrong direction.īertrand valiantly rescued Percy's severed arm from the roaming band of bugbears that had torn it off, though Keyleth had already began regenerating a new one. ![]() When Vox Machina returned to Vasselheim seeking aid in rescuing Grog's soul, Sir Bertrand Bell was the first to speak up and volunteer his services.īertrand initially claimed to be a veteran warrior of renown and an expert on the plane of Pandemonium, but it soon became clear to the group that Bertrand was merely posturing in front of Vasselheim's leadership and knew little about their destination - in fact, before Highbearer Vord suggested he be Vox Machina's guide, Bertrand only meant to advise them on the plane and never planned to accompany them. Upon his first appearance, Bertrand was in the company of Holy Curator Curtis Uleas of The Quadroads, indicating he is somehow affiliated with that section of Vasselheim. Biography Background īertrand claimed he was famous for slaying the "whispering werewolf of the north" as well as the "horrible hippogriff of the west", though it's not known if this is true. In 843 PD, when he was likely in his eighties, he was prone to occasional forgetfulness and fell asleep easily, sometimes in the middle of a conversation. Percival de Rolo considered him to be "the most pompous, egotistical arsehole" he's ever met, and Ariks Eshteross considered his house "stained" by Bertrand's "empty bravado". He tends to exaggerate his accomplishments and believes that he is more renowned and important than he actually is. Personality īertrand is characterized by his bombastic attitude that often leads him into trouble. He wears a lapel pin with the crest of Vox Machina. ![]() ![]() He still carries a beautiful rapier on his hip, but now also carries an elegant walking stick. He still favors purple and burnt-orange finery, with a coiffed collar. In " The Draw of Destiny" (3x01), Bertrand is older and has a receding hairline and a pony tail. He has been described as a "devilish silver fox son of a bitch." He wore beautiful orange, maroon, and purple robes of the finest make, with a beautiful rapier on his hip. When he first appeared in " The Search For Grog" (Sx42), Sir Bertrand Bell was in his late 50s or early 60s. Official art of Bertrand Bell in 843 PD, by Hannah Friederichs.

This script is an excellent way to get directly to the point of a tattoo, so when it comes to a phrase like this, it is an essential addition. With such a diverse range of styles and approaches, skulls can help add a distinctive and eye-catching element to a wide variety of works of art.

In addition to the aesthetic aspect, these designs also have an intellectual component: we are all heading toward death no matter what our perspective is.ĭeath and mortality are among the images that skulls are most associated with, making them the perfect choice for memento mori tattoos. The effect created by this interesting approach to script can be quite shocking and leave people scratching their heads, trying to interpret the different flipped and reversed text as if it were a tongue twister.

Anyone thinking about death might connect to the sensation of being alone or scared. ‘Memento Mori” is a concept that draws on the practices and theory of mortality. In addition to Hell, Heaven, and soul recovery, this tattoo design included symbols representing Hell, Heaven, and the afterlife. It has long been a fundamental part of the ascetic discipline to cultivate indifference and know the truth about the immortality of the character to perfect the character.

That one sequence between the Battle of Wits and the Fire Swamp is pretty much all that remains of Westley's rage, which while he forgave her as soon as he understood she wanted nothing to do with Humperdinck, still plagued him further into the book.ĭragging her along also has the just-as-important twofer effect of keeping her out of Humperdinck's hands while they sort out their mess of a love story. That this is utterly ridiculous behavior even for someone with true love driving him is pretty obvious, and it was toned down somewhat when the movie was made. So he's rescuing her from Vizzini because he loves her, and screwing with her afterwards because he feels hurt and betrayed. It did put a slight crimp in his plans to find her about to be married off. After all, he did keep himself alive among violent pirates, rose to own his own ship, and worked his rear off to make his fortune and eventually return to her. He views her engagement to Humperdinck as a betrayal of their love, disregarding the fact that she thought he was dead, and that princes don't really take no for an answer. ![]() His full state of mind isn't really detailed, but his later interrogation of her reveals much. In the original novel, Westley is described as seething over Buttercup's engagement as he watches her before she's kidnapped. ![]() His continuing charade of the "kidnapping" is a channel for his wrath and a test to see what her true feelings are. ![]() ![]() It features an advanced user interface where you can manage multiple channels and moderate other team members.Īnother feature that makes TeamSpeak pretty handy is the fast file transfer which plays a key role in keeping the communication in sync.
