"We did Brooklyn Steel many times, this venue is something personal, but this is by far the most nervous I've ever played at this venue, weirdly. [interacts with somebody in the audience saying they were here three years ago] Oh cool! Wow! They were here, so. Um. The next one, Julien Requested. It's cool to open for Julien, 'cause the night we met I was opening for Julien, so. This song is my oldest song that exists. Umm, yep."

(another angle of this intro avail. on tiktok here)

little oblivions is the album, the only album ever actually, it and b-sides fuck so hard and are so under appreciated in the boygenius canon, like

oh, I miss when I was certain // about every little thing // so scared of forgetting // that I put it down in ink // used to call upon the spirit // now I think heaven lets it ring // wanted so bad to be good // but there's no such thing

or

swallow the truth // force the charcoal down my throat // when i finally come to // maybe i’ll have something to show

or

all my greatest fears turned out to be the gift of prophecy // all my nightmares coming true come do my outline in the street // while every night i re-enact the same recurring dream // i’m stuck inside a vision that repeats

or

how come it's so much easier // with anything less than human? // letting yourself be tender // well, you couldn't make me do it // it doesn't feel too bad, but it // doesn't feel too good, either // just like a nicotine patch, it // hardly works, then it's over

or

oh, i miss it high // how it dulled the terror and the beauty // now i see everything in startling intensity

i am not exaggerating when i say this album saved my life, it deserves so much more respect
