[DID NOT ATTEND: November 10, 2023] Nation of Language / Miss Grit

I heard about this show because I follow Miss Grit.  I has seen her open for someone a while back and really enjoyed her show.  She had not yet even released an album, so I was curious to see how much better she was.

I thought I knew Nation of Language.  I even had a generally favorable idea of them.

But when I listened to them before buying tickets for the show, I realized that I didn’t really like them all that much.  They are very new wave synthy, which is fine.  But it wasn’t anything I needed to see.

So I’m bummed to miss Miss Grit whose playlist  was probably something like this:

  1. Perfect Blue
  2. Your Eyes Are Mine
  3. Nothing’s Wrong
  4. Lain (phone clone)
  5. Follow the Cyborg
  6. saibogeuleul ttalawa
  7. Like You
  8. Syncing

Interestingly, Nation of Language’s opening acts were all great and I would happily see a show with all three of them together: Miss Grit, Gustaf and Reggie Watts!
