getting ready for tour

[@dogstarontherun]

I really love how reflective your videos are. I always feel like I'm in a calmer headspace after watching one of your videos. I hope you have a wonderful time.

[@rosianna]

thank you! Something about the practice of sitting down and recording helps me be calm too :) hello from a patch of sun in the Dublin queue

[@lemonlemonster]

Honestly your love of the killers has always felt to me like a great reminder to just love the things you love, to not “play it cool” and tone down your love for something. I hope you enjoy your Killers summer and always happy to see one of your videos to pop up! 😊

[@rosianna]

Please know that I read this comment aloud to several killers friends and it made us all so extremely happy. Thank you!

[@lemonlemonster]

@@rosianna aww no problem! 💛 I’m a fellow killers fan but have only been able to make it to two of their shows so please have lots of fun in my stead 🙏

[@leenanorms]

Loved this style of video, loved seeing a glimpse of your day, LOVE your style of play and your love for the killers, and love you also I suppose

[@rosianna]

💖💖💖 thank you 💖💖💖

[@MartaBeveridge]

Every time you post it's such a delight! I completely relate to the finding joy irresponsible. I used to think I just needed to find comfort in irresponsibility but now I'm learning to undo the link in the first place!

[@andrineslife]

I'm so happy for you that you get to do this and I'm also just incredibly impressed with the amount of planning and scheduling it must require! I often say to that I've "cheated the system" whenever I do something that I find joyful that aren't like common to do, like going on Saturday train trips just to eat delicious food somewhere and read in a new park, and this definitely feels like cheating the system in the best way ❤️

[@rosianna]

Thank you thank you!! Honestly the spreadsheet is beautiful and if it wasn’t entirely full of personal information I would share it just to show you all. I love that cheated the system framework!

[@andrineslife]

@@rosianna oh I should absolutely start using spreadsheets more to plan my adventures!

[@gilliangarrett1300]

This glimpse into your home and life was really grounding and peaceful, the thoughts you share are always so vulnerable and insightful. You inspired the thought of engaging in boundless joy for the sake of the adventure.

[@angelal8829]

I so appreciate your continued willingness to share your relationship with self image. As someone who is for sure an adult-adult and who has come so far in my self acceptance in other ways, it can be really dispiriting how much I still struggle with my appearance and judgement about my body. Listening to someone else struggle, someone who I respect and admire and who feels both in a similar life place and (parasocially at least) more put together than is honestly so helpful. I wish continued growth and grace for us both, but I'm also so grateful for your vulnerability.

[@elizabethalice6634]

I'm not a massive killers fan but that excitement that winds into every time you talk about them makes me excited FOR you. My favourite band went on back-to-back tours recently and I saw them.... 4 times across the two tours. I love that the setlist could be the same/very similar but by standing in a different place, with new people, having eaten different foods and having different routines meant that each show felt new. Sometimes I stood next to my long term partner who has different favourite songs, sometimes I stood in front of someone who had never seen that band before, sometimes I stood near someone who had seen them twice as many times as I had, but every time I see them I'm grateful that I get to experience it. Enjoy the tour, Rosianna. I hope it's everything you need want and deserve it to be xx

[@malenaromano9817]

I love this kind of video and what you're doing! Honestly sometimes we have a strange idea of normalcy or responsibility, you might spend the same amount of money on a different and more standard kind of trip, but this is personalised to you and what fill you and brings you joy. I feel like the authenticity made this video way more refreshing than other kinds of content I see around.

[@sarasheffels2793]

thank you for this! i missed your videos. hope you have had an amazing time on tour 💖

[@jumpincows]

Your love for the killers has honestly inspired me to see more shows of bands I love and embrace live music generally, especially alone. There’s something wonderful about deciding my joy is worth spending money on.

[@katyspencer797]

Sounds like a fab way to spend the summer, hoping to see TK again soon!

[@rosianna]

I hope you can too!

[@ErynUnderwood]

missed you rosianna! loved hearing your reflections, as always. also, your love for and commitment to the killers has inspired me to let myself see as many shows by my favorite band (the mountain goats ofc!) as possible, even if it seems silly or impractical or w/e. sending love, have a great time on tour

[@emilysmith9853]

This was lovely! I am also doing a lot of crying in therapy and trying to interface with play and joy. Always nice to feel a connection reaching out across the ether.

[@kmaya1024]

Missed you! :) So grateful to be hearing your thoughts and reflections of the world today. Your reflections have always prompted important reflections of my own. I hope you collect many joyful memories this summer stomping around in your cowboy boots and find kindness in the comments! I bahaha laughed at the "unfortunately still on IG". how deeply deeply relatable!

[@Ajfmaizy]

Yay a Rosianna video!! this was great. Something very... tender? hearing you narrate the negative self-talk. The weight of it and also the love for yourself against it seemed to both be present in your voice. Also enjoyed the shot of shaking out laundry at the same time as this, felt like it fitted well!

[@annelise6813]

So happy that you posted a new vid! I love the sound of your voice and your general aesthetic 🥰

[@anjalibhat14]

I had missed the sound of your voice so much, it’s so soothing. Beautiful video. ❤

[@janicew9]

As always, I cherished this video with all its snippets of casual life and introspection.

[@rosianna]

thank you :’)

[@meirabroderick5646]

I love your videos so much, so happy to see a new video from you. They are always so contemplative and sweet and calming. Have so much fun on tour!

[@rosianna]

So kind of you to say, thank you! I’ve been filming a bit while I’m here so maybe another one soon 🥰

[@nkfbrx]

Hiii Rosianna, so lovely to see you again and be treated to a snippet of your mind. I'm obsessed with your yellow living room, one day when I can paint my walls, that's the vision I have had since seeing a fully yellow kitchen on the Marvelous Mrs Maisel. I hope you had/have the best time at the gigs, live concerts are such a boost to the system and it often carries me for weeks after. I just saw Taylor in Edinburgh and even though I suffer from health issues which make bright lights difficult for me so I sat in the concourse a lot, I got to see her perform some of my favourite songs. I so empathise with joy being such a complicated and scary feeling, I've had similar thoughts the past months, but I'm glad you're allowing yourself joy anyway. On another note, if you ever have the energy again to make sit down videos or even just a voiceover, would love to hear what books you've been loving recently but if not, I totally get it xx

[@bookishshenanigans4769]

A beautiful video as always. I hope you have the best time seeing The Killers - you deserve all the joy and no guilt!

[@butteredflies]

I hope you have so much fun this summer! May any feelings of judgment melt away, leaving you with joy joy joy. :)

[@rosianna]

thank you thank you! I think you made it happen because I am so joyful and no self judgement whatsoever 💖

[@darth3pio]

I couldn't think of a better band to see live, I hope you have fun and I'm glad you're feeling better mentally, etc

[@rosianna]

Thank you so much! Hello from the queue for tonight’s show :)

[@barrowc]

Always good to see a new video from you! Hope you enjoy all the shows you're going to and everything else about your tour

[@lorenabpv]

this is a great idea, i wish i had the resources (time, money, but most importantly, lack of distance) to follow some of my faves on tour. have a great time!

[@rosianna]

I wish you did too!! We are so spoilt over here. Sending much love and favourite songs your way. Always happy to see you in comments :)

[@btbesquire5]

So grand to see you again. Hope you are enjoying your travels.

[@SweeneySays]

this video is an absolute delight and so are you

[@rosianna]

weep sob hugs love you

[@kasia8306]

I loved this video! Reminded me of 2014 youtube in the best possible way

[@rosianna]

high high praise! thank you! I have been filming more the last few days and hopefully the 2014 vibes continue

[@jos5394]

This video was like a balm for the brain ❤

[@rosianna]

hoping to make some more brain balm videos for you soon :)

[@iliveinmyhead]

I was just thinking about you! In a parasocial internet way not a creepy way 😂. I'm always happy when your videos pop up. I never really did it in my teens/twenties so in my thirties I'm trying to lean into a bit of irresponsible joy. I hope you have the best time on tour ❤

[@rosianna]

Very happy to be thought of and to surprise you! Yay for 30s joy! I hope you have a great time and hello from the Dublin queue - night one on Wednesday was amaaaaazing! Night two tonight 😎

[@chanlizzie]

I've missed hearing your words. Thanks for sharing a few more.

[@rosianna]

ahhh this makes me so happy, thank you for watching/listening

[@mikemaninblack]

I love the song Human

[@rosianna]

a banger for sure!! The crowds in Dublin went hard for it on night one!

[@CraigSimmonds]

Enjoyed this lots!

[@rosianna]

Thanks Craig!!! Hope to see you soon

[@kts8900]

What a beautiful and gentle video. Thoughts: 1. I hope you keep being kind to your face, it is a lovely one. 2. I love the colors and life of your appartment. Mustard yellow is bold and beautiful! 3. Four hour meetings? what a life. 4. As a Brit, what is your relationship to the 'Murican cowboy boots? In the US, a man/woman wearing boots is sending certain social signals, I wonder how it changes across the pond.

[@lk509s]

Thank you for this.

[@rosianna]

Thanks for watching and listening!

[@kujmous]

Those boots kick ass.

[@ts_editor]

No Belfast this time, so I won't be among you. I see that Travis are on the bill for both Dublin shows, so that'll be a ball. Have a great time, Rosianna.

[@rosianna]

Thank you! I feel so lucky that Travis are opening, I adore them. They played Closer on Wednesday night which is my favourite song of theirs; I almost cried. Until next Belfast!

[@hmrishel11]

Thank you for showing yourself masked. Sometimes it feels rather lonely to be one of the few still doing it.

[@rosianna]

oof I’m sorry. I don’t wear my mask enough to be honest. But it was shocking to be the only one wearing it at the airport and plane as far as I saw. And everyone coughing. Grim :( 💖

[@MayaGasterMoll]

play is so so important!!!

[@rosianna]

more play 2024!!!!!!

[@fleurlily]

Thanks for sharing ❤

[@rosianna]

thanks for being here :)

[@winterswept6151]

I appreciated the communitychannel style email to pause over :)

[@rosianna]

Nat is my #1 influence for all KZbin things ever rrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrr. Saw lamingtons at brunch the other day and immediately thought of her. The power!

[@Epix_Cool]

You’re in the pupil recognition of your secondary school 😉

[@F.o.s.t.e.r.]

What's the point without joy? If you get a chance, (re)listen to the Anthropocene Review episode about sycamore trees. It's one of my favorite things John has ever written/recorded. It really helps me when I feel I don't deserve happiness. Thanks for taking us along, I'm jealous. The killers only show near me is 3 hours away and I won't be able to go.

[@rosianna]

So happy to hear you love the episode! I produced it so know it very well at this point :) I think about leaves a lot ever since. I’m sorry you can’t go to the show near you. Hope you get to go to one soon!

[@nead_sinead]

Hey Rosianna, re. the gaze of 'the public' - I am not sure where you are at with that journey, but if you ever consider starting a Patreon, where you could upload more regularly, I'd be more than happy to support you on there (as I miss your videos!), and perhaps it would be a more 'freeing' public space (this would obviously vary from person to person, but a lot of creators I support on patreon tell me they feel a lot less judged with the crowd behind their paywall). I like to support smaller-ish channels that aren't plagued with ads on main (such as yours), and patreon can be a good option in that regard. Just a thought if you missed video-making, and 'the public' being a barrier to that :)

[@rosianna]

oh thank you! That is a helpful thought. Maybe one day I’ll finally post to my substack too…

[@dsalazarm]

tienen nixtamasa por allá?? o solo maseca??

[@rosianna]

Sí!! mestizo vende nixtamasa de Naturelo
