EXCLUSIVE: The director of LDR Village has reached out to LanaBoards directly to announce to you all in advance that the LDR Village will be having a pop-up event for Blue Banisters at the Santa Monica Pier in Santa Monica, CA.
The exact address of the event is 1615 Ocean Front Walk and will be held from 10AM-6PM.

But it’s already instantly AOTY?

I'm starting to notice a theme in the reviews, that theme being "It's Not NFR So I Won't Even Try To Listen Outside That Lens" 

Not me sleeping for 15 hours except for a point where I woke up for about 30 minutes and groggily checked LanaBoards LOL.
Anyway, I'm so excited to be here for the final few hours of Pre-Release Period & then have my first listen with you all! I'm now going to back and read the 350 pages from this thread that I missed over the past week while I was away lol - seems like you all have been having lots of fun here as we approached Blue Banisters' release! We're finally here now ahhhh time flies!! x

I JUST WANTED TO SAY...
I had so much fun in here with all of you! I feel incredibly overwhelmed by this release... I am actually in tears. I cannot wait. No longer. Give me my fucking Blue Banisters. Love Lana always.
See you soon my friends, let these tracks shine in our libraries! 
 

 

All these posts are so sweet so everyone bare with me for a second here because I'm about to get sappy:
 
This was my first pre-release where I actually engaged in discussion instead of lurking around and hiding in the corners of the boards, and I'm so grateful that I got to experience it with so many lovely people. Through all of the fights and the gifgates and the leaks and the trolls we were together, and it was so much fun. I've been on here since NFR's pre-release and I was always so afraid to join in, but I finally did it back in the spring and I'm so happy that I did. I've gotten to interact with so many wonderful people, I look forward to continuing to do so  

I'm fairly new here, been lurkin since NFR era and I joined just this year in January ... being here it's one of the few good things of my day: during free time at work or after dinner I like to come in here and laugh and rage with you all. I feel understood here since we all love Lana and no one IRL that I know of feel this way about her music. I don't feel alone here  I want to thank you all for making me smile and I look forward to discussing Lana on Colbert tomorrow and to go completely insane in the incoming new thread: Blue Banisters POST RELEASE 

Agreed. It's likely the video for IYLDWM is what she shot with Father John Misty.

Blue Bannisters John Deere Parade: Starring Tex and Mex

When we thought there would a Madonna collab on BB 

i joined here in the pre-pre-release thread when we though mike dean was the main producer of a synth trap masterpiece and honestly how far we have reached. i could never been happier by joining lanaboards besides all the drama and the NFR! slander and the hatred for piano ballads. i found another community to be in and i'm glad i am
 

In a better timeline Lana is America's sweetheart 

Old Man River keeps on rollin'....
With or without him....
 
Summer comes, winter goes
Spring, I skip, God knows
Summer comes, winter goes
Spring, I sleep, Heaven knows
 
The outros to Text Book and Blue Banisters are career highlights 

Before this thread is closed in a few hours… I just wanna say thank you to all of you for being such a positive, enlightening, newfound part of this new phase of my life. You guys have kept me company over the past few months in a way that felt so liberating and soothing when so many aspects of my life were in such a whirlwind.
 
Here’s to another wild, crazy, endlessly entertaining and always passionate pre-release thread. Love my LB family 

listened with a vpn and the unreleased sound fine, the overreacting  😭

there's something really witchy and haunted about many of lana's moments throughout... especially the little heads and tails of shots before or after she starts singing along. an otherness under the sweetness

IYLDWM possibly being the next single makes so incredibly happy - easily one of my favourites on Blue Banisters 

i am crying.
The moment we get to OFFICIALLY listen to BB is the moment we have to say goodbye to this thread.
This thread will always hold a special place in my heart - as the first FULL pre-release + pre-pre-release thread i've ever joined on LanaBoards!

Let's not get sad, we'll probably have a new pre-release thread as soon as midnight hits
