FanPost Friday Open Music Thread - Best of 2024

Baseball? What baseball? Never heard of it. Share all your best-of lists and recommendations!

Hello and welcome back to FanPost Friday. Sorry for the inconsistent offseason posting schedule. Thank you to Zach Mason for filling in with his excellent post on Félix Hernández and his Hall of Fame case.

But today, we’re not here to talk about baseball, as if there is anything Mariners-related to discuss. No, it’s early January and that means I’m obsessed people’s year-end best-of lists for music, movies, books, and more! So that’s what we’re gonna chat about today, friends.

Here are your prompts:

• Top 5 favorite records of 2024 of any genre
• Top 3 favorite 2024 movies
• Top 3 favorite books you read in 2024 (doesn’t have to be published in 2024)
• Favorite concert you attended in 2024
• Favorite sporting event you attended in 2024
• Favorite Mariners game you went to in 2024 (fine, we’ll talk Mariners a LITTLE BIT)
• Favorite New-To-You piece of media (music, movie, book, etc) that you enjoyed in 2024

Hope everyone had a nice and safe holidays and are ready to tackle yet another year. Time continues unabated, Father Time stays undefeated. See you in the comments!
