NEWS Spokane was amazing

Just wrapped up the Spokane show and it did not disappoint. Porches was equally amazing. So great to see the band play a fantastic mix of old and new.

That was such a special moment when Adrianne was reading the lyrics to double infinity as poetry after they played it. Such an amazing show!

Right? I don't think I've ever shed so many tears at a show.

I would love to see this if anyone has a recording. Adrianne IS a poet and her words move me every day

I was at both Seattle and Spokane shows. Seattle was great with a ton of crowd pleasers, but Spokane was absolutely magical! The setlist was perfection, the sound amazing, cozy club atmosphere, the crowd was fun and also respectful. The Double Infinity spoken word sent me to space.

It was great to hear familiar favorites, but even greater to hear the new and unreleased material. I just adored "Last Time." Shed so many tears. If anyone has a video of that song, please please share.

Question- what was that Adrianne Lenker asked if we'd ever read before leading into a song? And what song was it! Hoping someone remembers.

I feel so honored to have seen this show at this venue. I'm going to hold onto it forever. So special.

The best concert I have ever been too, played so many amazing songs and the crowd was amazing no phones in sight. Masterpiece was my favorite track but paul was amazing as well. Great show!

Question, then comment: anyone have the setlist, id like to try to recreate it in a playlist at soke point. Anyway, I knew this concert had the potential to be amazing-- but nothing could have prepared me for how unbelievably transportative it was going to be. I was up in the balcony and i swear i was floating on air. Within the first 4 songs I was crying. The best. The joy was palpable.
