Dear Good Omens fandom! Do you want to celebrate the release of S3 together, in person, with some cool activities?

My dear friend @beccibarnes and my humble self started planning a little get-together in the city of Hamburg in Northern Germany.

It all started as a silly idea, but we kept going on, and now we want to make it real. We took heavy inspiration from Prague Omens and Prague Pirates (An OFMD fandom meeting) - two really cool events that have already taken place several times and were massive successes.

It will happen over the span of one weekend. All main activities are set for Saturday + Sunday, with some additional plans for folks who will be arriving on Friday afternoon/evening.

The main part of the event would be a biiig watch party - as in, booking a movie theatre just for us! - and we've already begun to contact several movie theatres in the city.

Besides that - we already have some other activities in mind, which could include, but are not limited to:

a tour through the city

a boat trip on the Elbe river

having lunch and/or dinner together, maybe even breakfast 👀

having a picnic, if the weather allows it

visiting a board game or cat café

belting out some tunes at a karaoke bar

visiting local exhibitions and sightseeing activities

We will keep it as budget friendly as possible, pinky promise!

The biggest problem is: We don't have a release date yet (thanks, amazon). That makes planning very difficult, not just for us - for you too. Second problem is: We have no idea, how many people to expect (if any, besides us). Therefore, we are asking you:

Now, some additional words about Hamburg, in case you've been wondering...

Hamburg is Germany's 2nd biggest (and also the best, but shhh) city. It's easily reachable by car, bus, train and plane. Our airport is comfortably placed right in the middle of the city and has lots of destinations from all over Europe. Hamburg also has train connections into every nook and cranny of Germany + direct connections to Prague, Vienna, Copenhagen and Basel. We also have a huge central bus station... so yeah. Lots of ways to reach the city.

We've also set up a Discord server - so come and join if you are interested and would like to follow our plans + updates.

Thanks for reading! Please reblog and share this post, we want to reach as many fellow Good Omens fans as possible. :)

can you do the tum tugger....

first impression: pretty sure he was one of my favourite cats when I was first discovering the show, and if i remember correctly i doodled him the most when i was trying to figure out how to draw the characters

impression now: I really like him!! I’d say he’s easily in my top 10

Favourite moment: I think it’s always fun whenever he can jump into the audience and dance w someone during his number. I’m not sure if many modern productions do that anymore (ik broadway revival doesn’t 👎) but i hope they bring that back someday

Unpopular opinion: well. Although i do hc him and munkustrap to be half siblings, i just dont rlly see either of them being related to macavity. But all power to you if you disagree w me lol

Favourite relationship: tugger and Misto will always be very precious to me !! And ofc i enjoy whatever weird situationship is going on with him and bomba

Favourite headcanon: kicks my foot in the dirt. Well ,maybe it’s interesting that tugger acts really immature but in reality is one of the most attentive cats and is very respectful. That doesn’t mean his sexuality is a facade, as it very much isn’t, since he enjoys getting attention but also likes giving the same amount of attention to specific cats like mistoffelees and deuteronomy

Face claims: love the fluffy tuggers with all my heart 🫶

Remember: You Are Prey

[In mythology the ancient and wild Gods were recast] in a more bloodless and pro-human-society light. I’d argue that this parallels a major shift in how popular storytelling has changed the story of the vampire: increasingly humanising them and showing them working inside of human society and its rules, instead of being a destructive force that hurts us.

How many vampire stories now feature characters who only target the evildoer? Who channel their monstrous natures in ways that benefit humans? Who are inspiring and even loveable to humans?

I’d say too many. We neutered horror in our story telling. Pulled its fangs or worse, made those fangs sexy. Something about the way this incarnation of Interview With the Vampire is unfolding suggests that this has been our mistake. They aim to remind us not simply of our empathy and love for the monstrous, but of our fear of it.

The trial, too, is a recurring feature in stories where humans grapple with the supernatural and horrific. It’s an overlay of human reason, fairness, judgement and control, human morality, on the random, cruel and violent nature of forces previously believed beyond our sphere of influence, outside of prayer, sacrifice and ordeal. The trial is our triumph of reason over the terror of millennia of Gods and Monsters. Of our ability to protect ourselves, we who were once merely another prey animal.

Trials are so modern and so human, even when the trial itself is a sham or when the punishment is barbaric, the fact that a trial exists at all is narrative evidence that humans have some control over their world. But Interview With the Vampire is a horror story and I think it’s going to pose the question of whether humans can actually hold the horrors at bay, especially when we’ve recast our old supernatural foes as romantic heroes in our new mythology.

This criticism of the audience is of the audience in the theatre for The Trial, yes. But also of us viewers, and even of the people making the show. We’re all complicit because we all enjoy telling stories this way. We’ve trapped ourselves here, come willing to our doom and doomed others along the way.

((This is from a more detailed post, one of two on Francis Bacon and the Greek Furies, hence the abrupt beginning, apologies.))

4/25/25.

The Sound of Money (Munich, Germany) have a gimmick. They take their favorite album titles, mixed the letters up creating a new title, and then write a song. They first did this with some of their favorite 1960s albums in 2017. Eight years later, they're releasing another album, this time focused on "anagrammatized" titles from 1970s albums.

The music itself is quite good and careens all over the place. But, I've listened to both songs on "Two: Rhyme On" and several songs from "More? Why Not!" and there is a definite C86 sound (I think "Sex Duo" sounds like The Feelies channeling C86). I'm guessing they also are influenced by the bands they "anagrammatized". On "Two: Rhyme On" some of those bands are David Bowie, Todd Rundgren, R. Stevie Moore and The Modern Lovers.

Learn more about the music on the new 2025 release: "Two: Rhyme On"

Learn more about the music on the 2017 release: "More? Why Not!"

Both album are released by Hamburg, Germany label, BB*Island.
