I'm doing student observations in Alaska at a K-12 school, and one of the students passed me a copy of the student paper. On the back, there was a full page article devoted to "Welcome to Night Vale," written with much obvious love and passion by some student fan, encouraging other kids to check out. Now, I don't know much about the program - I'm actually going to give it a listen for the first time later tonight - but I recognized it as a thread in GBS. Always a wonder to me when I see something pop up in real life, so to speak.

So I thought you guys might get a kick out of that. Night Vale is not only internet famous - it is famous enough to warrant a write-up in a student paper. (To clarify a bit on that, I just think it is oddly endearing. Some student thought Night Vale was cool enough to want to share with all their friends and family.)

Welcome to Night Vale is one of the most popular podcasts in the world right now. It's famous enough outside of Internet circles that a student paper about it doesn't surprise me.

Oh, I know that it is popular. (I delved into it some after I made the connection.) I know it has a broad fan base, and has even been featured on NPR. It has gotten a lot of fame, and I figure rightfully so. But I also thought an article in a student paper is something simple and nice, you know? :unsmith:

Sorry I didn't mean to sound like I was attacking you because that was not my intent. Anyway you could scan the article for us?

I got asked this by PM, but it's a pretty common question, so:

March tour will be the same script as the West Coast tour, which is a script specifically written for live shows that has never been done on the podcast.

Also we will have guests at some of the tour stops, but we don't announce guests beforehand.

I appreciate the quick response!

I don't think I'm spoiling anything by saying the musical guest artist is Eliza Rickman. She mentioned she was doing at least the North American tour with WTNV, I'm not sure if that'll continue for the Europe leg.

She was the weather when I saw the live show in March. My wife and I really enjoyed her set.

So I've basically been binging on this show for the past week. And I just made it to the epic two-parter anniversary event.

Now, before I listen to part two, how much am I missing from the live show? Like, what was the format? Was it like a staged reading, or is there a lot of visual stuff that I'm missing out on? And if that's the case, is there any way to see a video recording of the episodes?

Really enjoying this though.

Edit: I didn't read most of the thread, for fear of spoilers. If this has already been answered earlier, then I apologize.

Basically the live show is Cecil on stage by himself. Other characters come on stage as necessary say their lines and then vanish. It's about the most basic presentation (and i don't mean any offense by that) but it works amazingly in practice.

One thing that surprised me (and honestly I don't know why) but I didn't realize you that you actually played the keyboard during the show. I just assumed that you had samples and tracks queued up and you would just hit a button to play them. The music was fantastic last night.

A cashier at a store they stopped at refused to serve Mary Epworth because she was attempting to buy feminine hygiene products and proceeded to make everybody in their party uncomfortable as he very publicly made a show of finding another employee willing to handle the transaction.

My wife and I have been huge fans of the Podcast for years. Over the last year we've both really fallen out of it for whatever reasons. Yesterday while driving home on a 4 hour trip we decided to listen to a bunch of episodes. We had both stopped about midway through "Season 4" and we listened to a ton of episodes. I felt like Season 3 was a bit lackluster, but everything after "A Stranger" has been amazing. Can't wait to get caught up on the podcast again and I'm sorry I gave up on you guys :(
