minus-squareTexasDrunk@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·28 days agoMy buddy is a songwriter and is working on an album right now. He was showing me the lyrics and I could almost map which songs were about who. Half the album is sad bastard and the other half is just how certain relationships sucked. I’m really looking forward to it. I run sound from time to time at a place where one of his exes works and I really want to queue it up between sets.
minus-squareprole@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-227 days ago I really want to queue it up between sets. I hate to be that guy, but since it appears to be related to your gig, I feel like it might be beneficial for you… The word is “cue” in this case. I guess “queue” gets the point across though. And maybe “a queue of songs” is a valid descriptor.
minus-squarepotpotato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·27 days agoM-W defines the verb forms of cue as queue. It seems like in historical use, cueing up media is typical, but queuing songs isn’t wrong. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/cue
minus-squareTexasDrunk@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·27 days agoDon’t be afraid to be that guy. You’re right, and I wrote it incorrectly. I actually appreciate the gentle correction. I should have written “I want to add it to the song queue between sets”.
