can you just put this on the table? you want me to put this in my bag? no, on the table. [indecipherable] right.... I'm not 100% sure it's going to happen but i might have to interact in some ways [indecipherable, covered by guitar] so I'm just gonna put my bag here yeah that's fine yo, nick. nick! where's nick? well. yo wait can you help us uhm- why can't you play a normal person chord, play C. aaaaaaaaaaa. sounds pretty rockin to me, i dunno. that's quieter than that. that's my thesis. okay, we'll do the fuckin first song and if it doesn't work it doesn't work, you know. could everyone smoking cigarettes, fuckers. wait a minute, let's get the guys who are smoking cigarettes. i'll get the smoking cigarette guys and then we'll be back. does anyone who's here want a tshirt. anyone? it's covered in bleach. jamie! that's yours now! anyone else want a free 7hdi tshirt also covered in bleach? any takers? any takers? yeah! okay I'm gonna tune up, play e. the best note. a? [incomprehensible tom beer noises]
2.
yo before we start does anyone want a free 7hdi shirt? they're really wet with bleach some of them are wet with paint! god this is just a bit much The stage is too bright The crowd is too dark There's so much chatter And I'm way too I'm way too I'm way too fucking sober actually I've had like one wine so it's pretty good we are 7 hour darkness invasion this is our last show for real ah this is the last time i ever get to do this 1, 2, 3, 4 Woke up from a daydream Into a venue Tell me if I go out of tune Cause I don't know what I'm doing I don't know the lyrics, don't know the chords How the fuck do you play guitar How the fuck did I get this far How did I stay alive this long To sing you these songs With the blood I've lost you would have thought That something would've gone wrong But here I am pouring my heart out to people I don't know Welcome to the show
3.
ah i got this plugged in the wrong way again. yo anyone who just showed up want a 7hdi shirt? uh this one... i don't even know, this one says jack shit. you get the worst one nick. i want it. i already got one though to be fair. uh, what song is next? so we'd like to thank tom beer for putting this event on. [incomprehensible mumbling]. we'd like to thank the pixies for playing earlier and built to spill, that was great! I've only seen built to spill once before. we are pavement.
4.
i don't drink anything except sparkling water and peppermint tea so when i'm screaming in your living room it's not the alcohol or caffeine it's just me "what is art?" i think to myself as i piss in amy's toilet "and why do i sing along to every song that comes on" even when I'm alone even when it's something that I don't know i just get this feeling in my bones and i gotta put on a show pat the bunny said "if you're not dancing then you might as well be dead" and that's ableist and untrue but it describes my attitude so if you wanna take my hand I'll show you what it means to do more than consume art to make it a part of who you are look around look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now
5.
we have more shirts! who wants a shirt! yeaaaahhhhh you've already got one. [people talking over each other]. no, who wants one? cmon [mumbling] can i have one? who wants one? who wants one? watch out please [something falls] nice ahh that's good. [everyone talking at once] that one says... uh... semper fuck. uh we're gonna do the band intro now so no one fucking gets it wrong, hartley on bass, he/him pronouns. annie on guitar, she/her pronouns. dan jackson on drums, he/him pronouns. my name is yvette i use they/them pronouns now. yeah, if I fuckin forget remind me you know. you start it's 2pm. it's hartley's first time playing with us yay hartley
6.
2pm 01:43
This is not my idea of fun Roasting in the summer sun My body hurts This sunburn can't get any worse I love this place Just not in the middle of the day SPF 110 Does not do shit to save my skin The water's warm The riptide's pulling me down the shore In an innertube Look back at the beach and I think I see you I love this place But the heat is fucking with my brain Either that or you've been On my mind a bit too much well I'm trying To think about things that I like And not just the person that I like Obsession isn't sexy But hey, neither am I with these tan lines
7.
okay. none of those songs particularly contained anything so i'm gonna do a content warning now. content warning: suicide, mental health, sexual assault, gender, mental health did i say that? a bunch of stuff. I'll give you a few minutes cause i need to figure out what song is next. so if you're someone who has triggers maybe it would be best to leave now. what song is next? hartley, you know the setlist. i think it is northern sunsets. okay, anyway, that was a love song from a summer where i got sent to a mental institute cause i'm a crazy person. it's a love song about a guy who raped me. this is next song is nice.
8.
1, 2, 3, 4 it's 9pm on a friday and the moon is as bright as the sunset and i can smell fire somewhere off in the distance i'm carrying groceries back to my place feeling like things don't change and trying to write a song that'll prove me wrong in my kitchen feeling weird just brought one of my closest friends to tears and now i'm lying on the couch watching x files thinking if there's anything that i could possibly say to make her feel okay and trying to stay awake it's getting dark and i've walked past your place maybe 5 times now (I'll move in a bit) with my ex on my back telling me to just go in and ask you out even though you've got friends over (they're good musically aren't they, very good) even though you've been depressed even though i'm on the sidelines of your life and that's probably for the best if i told you that i love you would you kiss me? if i told you i was scared would you hold me tight? if i just stood there, silent on your doorstep, would you invite me in? if i told you i was sorry would you tell me how to make things right? now it's 9pm on a different day the sunsets here go on forever and i can smell fire again
9.
yo how much time to we fuckin have? keep goin 30 minutes 30 more minutes or 30 minutes total? uh 30 total. okay good cause we're halfway through the set. who wants a 7hdi shirt? i've got a fuckin ton of them like, really. yeah I'll have one no! anyone who hasn't fuckin had one yet. c'mon I'm not made of clothes. yeah you are though. [chatter] okay, this next song... okay... this next song is about my love of the band my blubby valenpime. everybody love my bluddle valentin? yeah! bullet for my romance.
10.
Head from the pres to the party Make it through the door and the music's so loud my ears might bleed Which would be fine but I'm not drinking Find some cutie, try to chat but they can't hear anything I'm saying So I gotta scream "Hey do you like memes Do you like irony Do you like jokes where the joke is that it's not funny" And they laugh which is not the response I wanted But Im not sure what response I wanted So I don't know maybe I'm just being a fucking asshole We talk about shitposting and the Facebook pages we like And it's pointless and it's boring but I'm kind of having a good time I guess some point we become the acts we put on And that's fine "Hey do you like My Bloody Valentine Do you think that Loveless is the greatest album of all time Do you want to stroke your ego By saying the same old shit everyone has already said about an album released like 30 years ago"
11.
so. about one and a half years ago we played our first gig at bar a lot like this called the spread eagle. it's smelled just as weird. no offence. and fat spat, fat spatula, who are here who incredibly put us one, and now this is our last gig and we're playing with them again, and it's nice. you know it's like cyclical. and there's like one thing i have to say about all this and that's does anybody want a tshirt. please. i made like 16 please can someone take them. oh shit bill! yvette! bill! take a t! I love the jerries. one left! this is our last song. it's about how much we fuckin hate music. just in case...

1, 2, 3, 4 Step on my balls Sit on my face Spank me mommy I'll kiss your taint Cum in my hair Piss in my mouth Choke me daddy Slap me about Fuck me like I'm your ex girlfriend Fuck me like I'm the asshole she cheated on you with Fuck me like I'm their younger sister Who's never even seen a dick This audience sucks Y'all fucks don't even dance And no one understands How uncomfortable I am up here Stripping myself bare for your pleasure Are you having fun? Are you getting off right now? Was this worth the 4 pounds? I'm tired it's in my blood and i'm starting to doubt whether i'll make it home this coat's not waterproof headphones broke again so i'm listening to the wind and the rain and the traffic thinking about the things i said trying to console a friend wishing that i knew how to be supportive just wanna take my wet clothes off and get back to bed but i mean it's not like i ever really rest cause when i try to go to sleep i hear people speak to me i hear drums beat distant screams it's a cacophony and in my dreams i get deadnamed by my friends and i try and fail to save my ex again and again i'm tired you could say i'm fatigued is it a symptom of some disease or is it just me? got this internalised fear of disability i'm acting like it's no different from dying i don't know how to express this anxiety i'm not even sure that i should try is this my place to speak? is this song worth anything? is this art or am i just spiralling? my face hurts i'm still not back i hate this place but i'm fucking trapped would move to the states but i can't get insurance the wife and i would die so goddamn fast so i'm stuck here where it's not much better got the tories in power and this dreadful weather i'm soaked to the bone i'm shivering like fuck i'm tired it's in my blood oh no we're falling down a hole oh no we're falling down a hole oh no we're falling down a hole oh no we're falling down a hole we're getting to the last of this teenage angst emo bullshit i hope this is the last of this emotionally jackin it have you learned anything? did you sing along? has it been worth the listening? was this noise better than nothing at all? everybody else just wants me to kill myself everybody else just wants me to kill myself everybody else just wants me to kill myself they always try and kill me and they always try and starve me out everybody just wants me to kill myself everybody else just wants me to kill myself everybody else just wants me to kill myself a dozen people stalking me like i give a fuck about and all that you left, you left for someone all of this hurt that's wilted off all this relief it's the oddest thing oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god all that you left, you left for someone all of this hurt that's wilted off all this relief it's the oddest thing oh my god oh. my. god. oh. my. god. o h. m y. g o d. o h . m y . g o d . we are 7hdi, if you liked us fuckin do heroin.
