Watch Mr Vampire

[Martta]

VampireWeekend performs live in celebration of their highly anticipated fifth studio album, Only God Was Above Us, under the rare occurrence of a total solar eclipse. The show is available to watch on-demand, exclusively for VEEPS All Access subscribers.

Along the course of play, I've acquired some seemingly miscellaneous objects - a 'normal watch', several rings (labelled brass ring, fancy ring, and so on)- do I sell them or will I need them later on?

Rings, fancy and normal watches, car stereos, morphine, prescription meds, and such like are vendor trash. They exist purely to make you money. Raising your Haggle feat increases how much you get paid by vendors and lowers the price of stuff they sell you.

AMC's TV interpretation of Interview with the Vampire just wrapped its second season. Following a lengthy delay and a major cast shake-up, the timeless vampire classic returned for a critically acclaimed Part 2. Keep reading to learn where to watch Interview with the Vampire, including cable, affordable cord-cutting, and free options.

Based on The Vampire Chronicles novels from Anne Rice, Interview with the Vampire tells the story of Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson), a vampire recounting his life to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian). Chief among his many tales is his entanglement with the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid), as well as the young vampire Claudia. In the first season, Claudia was portrayed by Bailey Bass, but she was replaced by Delainey Hayles in Season 2. The story was previously adapted into a film version starring Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.

Interview with the Vampire aired on AMC on Sundays in the US. The new season premiered on May 12, and episodes were released weekly, culminating in a finale on June 30. For those without cable, you can catch Season 2 of Interview with the Vampire (and other AMC shows) through a couple of cord-cutting avenues like Philo and Sling TV.

Philo costs $28 a month and comes with a one-week free trial. In addition to AMC, the live TV streaming service has channels like BBC America, HGTV, and Lifetime. Sling TV is another popular cable alternative that carries AMC. Sling subscriptions start at $40 a month, but the service often comes with first-month discounts for users. These streamers allow viewers to watch AMC live. You can also currently catch the second season of Interview with the Vampire on demand through these services. Both seasons of the show are available through AMC+.

Season 1 of Interview with the Vampire is available to stream for free through BBC iPlayer in the UK. There's no word yet on when Season 2 will be available in the UK, but we'll keep this space updated if there's any news. iPlayer currently says the series will return, suggesting that Season 2 might be available soon.

If you'll be outside of New Zealand but still want to keep bingeing the show, you can try out a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs allow people to alter their electronic device's virtual location so that they can access their usual websites from anywhere. They're popular options for people hoping to boost their online privacy and keep up with their go-to apps while traveling.

AMC renewed Interview with the Vampire for a third season at the end of June, a few days ahead of the Season 2 finale. There's no word yet on when the next season might premiere, but it's worth remembering that there was a two-year gap between the first two seasons.

Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.

The drama of the moment revved up as (fake) blood started pouring from Rodrigo's arm and the flowery backdrop on stage after the first chorus, with the singer's face and chest eventually smeared red by the song's tense ending.

The lead single off the 2022 Best New Artist winner's angsty sophomore studio set GUTS, "vampire" bowed atop the Billboard Hot 100 upon its release last summer. The slow-burning piano ballad became the singer's third No. 1 hit, following the record-shattering "drivers license" and "good 4 u" from her 2021 debut SOUR, and even, remarkably, returned to the top of the all-genre tally for a second time 10 weeks after its initial debut.

2024 was a banner year for the GRAMMYs. Music heroes returned to the spotlight; across Categories, so many new stars were minted. New GRAMMY Categories received their inaugural winners: Best African Music Performance, Best Alternative Jazz Album and Best Pop Dance Recording. Culture-shaking performances and acceptance speeches went down. Those we lost received a loving farewell via the In Memoriam segment.

The cost to produce a GRAMMY Award trophy, including labor and materials, is nearly $800. Bob Graves, who cast the original GRAMMY mold inside his garage in 1958, passed on his legacy to John Billings, his neighbor, in 1983. Billings, also known as "The GRAMMY Man," designed the current model in use, which debuted in 1991.

While Los Angeles is the headquarters of the Recording Academy and the GRAMMYs, and regularly the home of the annual GRAMMY Awards, GRAMMY trophies are produced at Billings Artworks in Ridgway, Colorado, about 800 miles away from L.A.

Approximately 600-800 GRAMMY Award trophies are produced per year. This includes both GRAMMY Awards and Latin GRAMMY Awards for the two Academies; the number of GRAMMYs manufactured each year always depends on the number of winners and Categories we award across both award shows.

In an interview featured in the 2024 GRAMMYs program book, two-time GRAMMY winner Lauren Daigle spoke of the value and impact of a GRAMMY Award. "Time has passed since I got my [first] GRAMMYs, but the rooms that I am now able to sit in, with some of the most incredible writers, producers and performers on the planet, is truly the greatest gift of all."

"Once you have that credential, it's a different certification. It definitely holds weight," two-time GRAMMY winner Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter of the Roots added. "It's a huge stamp as far as branding, businesswise, achievement-wise and in every regard. What the GRAMMY means to people, fans and artists is ever-evolving."

As Billboard explains, artists will often see significant boosts in album sales and streaming numbers after winning a GRAMMY or performing on the GRAMMY stage. This is known as the "GRAMMY Effect," an industry phenomenon in which a GRAMMY accolade directly influences the music biz and the wider popular culture.

In addition to financial gains, artists also experience significant professional wins as a result of their GRAMMY accolades. For instance, after she won the GRAMMY for Best Reggae Album for Rapture at the 2020 GRAMMYs, Koffee signed a U.S. record deal; after his first GRAMMYs in 2014, Kendrick Lamar saw a 349% increase in his Instagram following, Billboard reports.

While AAPI Month is a U.S. holiday, the Recording Academy takes a global approach in celebrating artists and creators from across the Asian and Asian American diaspora. This aligns with the Recording Academy's growing mission to expand its reach on a global scale and celebrate international creators outside of the U.S.

Musicians of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander heritage have not only helped establish the music industry, but have transformed it. From Diljit Dosanjh being the first artist to play a Coachella set entirely in Punjabi to Laufey winning a GRAMMY for her jazz-inspired pop, AAPI artists continue to influence music by both honoring tradition and reshaping modern standards.

Roan played an evening set on the Gobi Stage on April 12, and is set to return for Weekend 2. Fans clad in everything from cowboy boots, Sandy Liang-inspired bows and, perhaps most importantly, jorts, gathered to celebrate their shared love of Roan's radiance, karmic kink and gay cowgirl doctrine.

Throughout her performance, bubbles breezed through the air as Roan belted out her infectious (and aptly titled) track "Femininomenon," which speaks to lover girls forced to live in an online-dating hellscape. "Ladies, you know what I mean?/ And you know what you need and so does he/ But does it happen? No!" Following collective screams of pure joy, the already enlivened crowd roused to match Roan beat-for-beat, shouting back in perfect unison, "Well, what we really need is a femininomenon!"

In an era of bedroom pop and sad-girl music, Roan has been hailed by both critics and fans for bringing fun back to pop music. Along with her staunch sense of self, Roan's penchant for explicit lyrics that are equally parts introspective and horny makes her dance-pop anthems all the more infectious.

Her fearlessness was on full display during her first Coachella set, where the words emblazoned on her bodysuit read "Eat Me." She talks the talk, and walks the walk (in fabulous, knee-high boots, of course), matching her unabashed aesthetic with equally bold career moves; for one, the openers for her headlining tour are local drag queens.

I ended up signing [with Island Records in 2023] because this project honestly got too big to be independent anymore. I just wasn't willing to give up anything, any creative control or for any amount of money.

Being an independent artist was really special because I proved to myself that I could do all these hard things that I had never done. I built it with an entire friend group and many, many years of work. So it wasn't just me, but it proved a lot to me.

Music allows me to express anything, even things that I've never experienced before. It allows me to express queerness, even if it was only daydreams at that point. It allows me to express parts of me that I'm not even ready to accept yet.
