    phoenixrses covered most of the music part, but there's also the performer part. I went to her 'Eras tour' and had seen her once before but it was a while back. Her show wasn't just a concert, but more akin to a play. She played 45 (!) songs, for over 3 hours. Numerous sets, dance numbers, and costume changes. It was quite the experience with ~65k people screaming along to every word. I personally enjoy her music but every 'era' is not my favorite. I think it's totally okay to not like art in any form.

    Especially considering just how cheap SSDs have gotten. On the other hand though some game sizes are out of control.

    I've checked in on a few subs who decided to poll their users. And while, this makes sense in theory, it's very likely that those that want the sub to remain closed simply aren't browsing reddit...
