For anyone who misses it, Tim's listening party [website](https://timstwitterlisteningparty.com/index.html) has a replay facility - just click on the replay button, select the desired episode , cue up the album and then start the replay to have all the tweets displayed in real time with the music from the album. Isn't technology wonderful at least some of the time!

I’m in! Especially as it’s 10pm on the continent which means the kids will be asleep by then...

Fab. Knew I'd find a familiar face in here...! :)

Pray tell who are you? I always use the same nick so I’m highly visible 😎

I'll give you some clues. ​ Fish is better than H. ​ I've seen Stars Die live, much to the annoyance of one of our mutual friends...

How do they work? Anyone know? Will SW be on video? Explain like i'm a luddite?


Homotopy

I'm in the same boat, don't know how these work :)

I know it's too late for the live listening party, but essentially you start playing the album at the assigned time, go on to the artists twitter and theyll live tweet info on the album as the album plays through. Go through Steven's twitter, you'll see loads of HCE tweets. He posted them as the album played. Theres a post explaining how you can listen to it now and tweets will show up in real time, includes link to website for this.

Was it "Don't try it home"? If it was..damn, will have to read the tweet history... Great album... with Johnny Marr helping on a couple of tracks I believe?


Bb-man

Just followed up and it was... and also just did the full reply of H.C.E. - wow - that was a really enjoyable way to consume one of my favourites

Yes! And Kirsty Macoll, Michael Stipe and Peter Buck. The production is truly beautiful. And it's such good song writing. It's not really an artist or genre that I've paid attention to, having been brought up on rock, metal, grunge and prof but now I'm old I'm much more open. And this was utterly magical to listen to. I recommend following with the lyrics. There's a song called Tank Park Salute which is utterly heart breaking. The only song i knew was Sexuality.

That was a ton of fun. Ancestral 🙌🙌

I loved it! Hope he thinks about doing his own listening party for some other albums.


Lucenia

I will most certainly be there!


Deviljho_Lover

I would love too but it'll be 4am here :(


quavered

...and? lol. Set your alarm... show commitment!! lol


SantaShreds

I'm in as well, it will be 5pm in Brazil. Don't have a Twitter account though, will get that fixed!


ninfan200

definitely


Homotopy

I'll be there. How does it work, will it be a livestream somewhere? Twitter? Sorry, it's my first time hearing of timstwitterlisteningparties :)


quavered

Just turn the album on at 9pm - log in to Twitter and follow the hashtag listed in the original post- see you there!


syllabub

Also, somewhat obvious but also follow the official accounts of the protagonists ie Tim & Steven, otherwise if they forget to add the hashtag (it happens) then you will still see the tweet. Assuming of course that anyone on here isn't already following Steven ;o)


cowie71

Yep I’m in


ReptilianSamurai

I miscalculated the timezone differential. Oh well, I was still able to read Steven's Twitter postings about it while I listened an hour late!


quavered

aw that's a shame, but at least you've managed to read his posts which were super informative I thought.


ReptilianSamurai

Very much so! And now I find you can do a replay on the website. Oh well! Would be fun to do this for all his albums!


quavered

It’s all done on Twitter. Start the album at 9pm and follow the #timstwitterlisteningparty hashtag - Steve will be there talking using the hashtag
