The Used Shares Dates For 25 Year Anniversary Tour

The Used are celebrating 25 years as a band. Pioneers of the early 2000s alt-rock scene, the Utah-based quartet hit it big with the release of their self-titled debut album in June 2002. They followed that up with 2004’s In Love and Death and 2007’s Lies for the Liars… And those are the three records The Used will be performing on their 25th anniversary run. Three nights in each city; one album in its entirety per evening.

Favorite Disney movie? [QOTW, 2/9/25]

I decided to go with another fun question this week – favorite Disney movie? We all have one, right? (The answer to that is no, as I discovered. Lol.)

For the record, I have more than one: The Little Mermaid, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Aladdin, The Aristocats, and The Princess and the Frog. My list would be even longer if I included Disney’s work with Pixar…

Anyway, here are the responses I got from some of my followers.

  • “This is gonna show my age, but I’ve always been partial to The Sword and the Stone.” – Marco, After the Apocalypse
  • Peter Pan or Toy Story.” – Steven, Justin Holt/f1oater
  • Dragonslayer!” – Richard, RJ Archer and the Painful Memories
  • The Great Mouse Detective.” – Xavi, The Lürxx
  • Deadpool 3 [Deadpool & Wolverine].” – Bryce, Psycholand
  • Maleficent.” – Mandatory Affect
  • Moana! Mainly because my daughter and I watched it so many times together.” – Deadly Vices
  • “I don’t watch Disney. I guess when I was younger it would have been The Little Mermaid or The Aristocats.” – Synthetik Blonde
