Era’s tour a personal take so far:

Okay we are four shows in on the era’s tour and it’s just gotta be said, Taylor Swift is a freaking ROCKSTAR and a DAMN genius.

3+ hours and 44 songs per show no breaks and multiple costume and set changes, sorry people this is not a concert this is a life altering experience.

I have not and will not watch some crappy livestream and spoil it for myself if I ever get the chance too experience it live or watch the official tour movie.

This is not your typical Taylor Swift concert no rep room or 1989 loft no meet and greets before or after the show and no Taylor on SM, but who cares we get 3+ hours of Taylor Swift music with a little something for everyone and maybe just maybe a little more of this.

One night after announcing we don’t have guests at this show Taylor broke her own rule bringing out Marcus Mumford too perform Cowboy Like Me. Does this mean we may get additional guests going forward 🤞🤞🤞we can only hope so.

Looking at the tour schedule number of shows time between dates and locations, Taylor and her entire crew both on stage and off are Taymazing, and “Taylor’s endurance is really ‘next level’ “The fact that she’s gonna do these three-hour-plus shows — it’s gotta be exhausting.”

Taylor is doing 52 shows before she even contemplates adding International shows, this is like doing a Las Vegas residency without any of the intermissions or costume change breaks and doing it in front of 65,000 to 70,000 fans instead of the 5,000 or so of a typical residency show.

We would love to be part of a crowd like this and watch Taylor Swift live in concert the last time Taylor was in Vancouver Canada was the 1989 tour in 2015 we have 🤞that we will get the chance, but honestly it’s doubtful.

Pamela, a Love Story (dir. Ryan White).

Netflix’s low-key documentary on the sometimes infamous life and career of Pamela Anderson offers a refreshingly stripped-down portrait of the Vancouver Island-born-and-raised blonde bombshell from the pages of Playboy to the beaches of Baywatch, her tumultuous marriage to rockstar Tommy Lee, and their highly publicized stolen sex tape.

Produced by her son Brandon, Anderson takes back ownership of narrative as a daughter, mother, model, actress, and sex object. Released in tandem with her memoir, Love, Pamela, it’s a fairly light yet enlightening look at the pop culture sensation turned tabloid fodder as a defiant woman in the spotlight. However, it feels authentically genuine and personal to who Anderson is as the fully fleshed-out lead character of her own story.

updated ash intro under the cut ! the real preamble will be added here later because my brain is dead rn. i tried to keep this short but that's really not my specialty. um... ash as a person has mostly stayed the same, i just wanted to make some parts of his background more concrete and give him more internal + external conflicts so it's easier for me to get in his head. if you read this and think anything we've plotted / written needs to change, please let me know and i'll be happy to work something else out !! if you would like to continue plotting or start plotting, please like this and you'll hear from me soon-ish 🤍

background

spent his earliest years in san francisco with his parents, then spent periods of time around ages 6 -13 traveling around the world a lot with his mom (places he lived for brief-ish periods of time include tokyo, london, vancouver, seoul, and queenstown new zealand)

he moved to los angeles shortly before high school and attended some fairly well-known performing arts high school

uploaded covers and original songs on youtube and soundcloud in high school, spent his fridays at open mics or actual gigs when he could get them, etc. he released three mixtapes (greed, esprit, and evergrey) and a few standalone original tracks that gained some amount of attention on soundcloud.

he got a publishing and artist deal with a multi-national label (think like warner / universal) post-graduation and worked as a songwriter and producer under the name greymatter (his soundcloud name) with credits for several korean and u.s. artists (possible plot for recording artist muses!)

made his debut in the us in 2015 with put my hands on you and love. promoted his ass off at small radio stations and shows but it didn't make a huge splash.

debuted in korea in 2016 with an ep to more success. became known as a rising star producer (won composer of the year at mama) and singer in the korean r&b scene. his label mediaplayed him a bit as an r&b pretty boy... the first real point of contention between him and his label.

more cracks started to form because of difference in vision with his label and he started to burn out a little. fought w/ his label to release instagram, cue the biggest hit of his career.

scene opens on a few months later... ash kwon, a man from california, might... smoke weed ????? nothing comes of a police investigation b/c he's not a korean citizen and there's no concrete proof he ever did it in korea but the headlines and some other controversies that are dug up in tandem are enough to turn public opinion against him.

contract with his agency is terminated, he disappears save for a couple song credits here and there (taylor swift vc: nobody physically saw me for a year). about a year later, he reappears under the radar playing super small shows in hongdae and itaewon as the lead vocalist of a new band called blacklight

eventually signs with culture creative and establishes a sub-label for him & his band. works primarily as a songwriter-producer/director/photographer/band member for about three years until he drops a new solo album after, like, half a decade

personality

invented being an emo boy actually. too emotional for his own good. believes his own tortured artist hype sometimes.

also too reckless for his own good and convinces himself it's just independence and it's a good thing!

one of his toxic traits is claiming to hate fame but craving the validation of an audience to kind of absurd levels

can be very flighty and hard to reach, but is incredibly loyal to those he values most

says he hates conflict but will start an argument just to feel something sometimes

lives in his head and not in a fun lil manic pixie dream boy way but a slightly self-obsessed anxiety spiral kinda way

you thinks he's so cool and different and then the law pulls up and he won't get in the car and you're like oh god damn not another rockstar 🙄

plot ideas

roommate / former roommate ? he's the kind of guy who needs his alone time and would rather live on his own, but he might have had roommates in his early days in seoul (2016ish) or briefly post-scandal or even now because one or both of them is in between places.

musical collaborators. fellow songwriters and/or producers he works with sometimes. singers whose voices he'll use on demos when his won't really work, recording artists he works with as a songwriter and/or producer a lot (or even has just worked with once tbh). people who have featured on his music

muses he's directed an mv of (or will in the future) or has photographed (or will in the future)! he has a sort of specific style that's kind of dark, horror-inspired but i'd love to try to work something out for anyone!!

here's a list of ways muses can be involved in his career items if anyone is interested !!!

people he knows from his childhood or adolescence? people from san francisco / the bay area or los angeles are easiest for this, but he did spend short times in other places with his mom like tokyo, london, vancouver, and new zealand, so they could have met there as well

people whose work he's a fan of! this is easiest with singers who do r&b or more indie rock type stuff or directors tbh, but muses adjacent to any kind of grungy / existential / artsy stuff are also an option lmao

alternatively people who are fans of his work ? could also be a never meet your heros, met him and it soured their opinion of him type thing. or they clicked and they got close despite his reservations about anyone being a fan of him lmao

younger or older people he has a sibling-like relationship with. as an only child, give him some chosen siblings.

exes, flings, hook-ups, fwbs, people he kisses on the mouth platonically, whatever. he infamously gets around but is also incredibly intense with all feelings, positive or negative

people who dropped him when public tide turned against him... or people who stood by his side... or people he became friends with during his time away from the public eye

people who won't put up with his shit, for better or for worse. people who he doesn't vibe with. people he doesn't understand but is lowkey dying to figure out how their brain works.

if you're thinking about making a new muse and think his band blacklight might be a good fit and we've plotted before, i'd be down to talking that out as a potential plot. the band needs a keyboardist, a bassist, a drummer, and potentially another guitarist. there are certain dynamics i'm looking for within the band and a certain vision i have for it, so i'd just want to talk about it a little in-depth first to make sure we're on the same page which is why the collective isn't technically "open"

+ very vague plot page to keep you on your toes
