Concert Review: Matthew Sweet

Mon. April 15, 2024 @ The Wilbur Theatre (Boston, MA)

Earlier this month I interviewed Matthew Sweet about his current tour, which is his first time touring since 2019. He said "It’s kind of cool to be starting up again live, it’s got an edge to it. So those shows were really fun to do. And it turns out Debbi [Peterson] is going to do April as well. So people might be into that, a real live Bangle banging on the drums!" I first got into him with this 1991 masterpiece Girlfriend. I’ve listened to that album and his catalog an insane amount of times. When his tour pulled into Boston on the evening of Marathon Monday, it marked my 6th time seeing him live! I first saw him in 1997 at the WBCN River Rave, where he also signed an autograph for me at a signing booth. A few months later I saw him do a free concert at the Hatch Shell in Boston. In 2004, I saw him at Irving Plaza in NYC. In 2012, I saw his Girlfriend anniversary tour at The Paradise in Boston (my #3 Concert of 2012). And in 2018 I saw him at Brighton Music Hall.

The show was heavy on between-song banter, where Sweet gave some stories about recording and whatnot. The most WTF story of all was about meeting Brian Wilson at a urinal in the recording studio they were both at. The setlist was very into Girlfriend (he played 7 of the 15 songs on that album) and Altered Beast. But there was a lot of other deep cuts like "If Time Permits" off of In Reverse, "Pretty Please" from Tomorrow Forever, and "Byrdgirl" from Sunshine Lies. Of course he closed with "Sick of Myself" too.

Peterson and Sweet onstage

This was among my favorite Matthew Sweet concerts. Easily! Having Debbi Peterson there was super cool. Someone in the audience shouted out in between songs to play "Going Down to Liverpool", the Katrina and the Waves song The Bangles covered with Debbi singing lead. Can you imagine the sparks that would have flown if Matthew Sweet and his band did that song with Debbi singing and playing? Even without that, it was super exciting to hear that his 90s-centric hits played live after not seeing him in concert for numerous years! Can't wait for the next tour!

The genre of power pop has a peculiar characteristc that doesn't get a lot of attention, i.e. the idiom can be found to flourish in many musical eras. Sure, this might sound like a bit of a stretch, though think about the fact that a lot of musicians within the brand had achieved their successes in vastly different temporal contexts. The Bangles, for instance, were one of the most popular 80's bands, yet you don't hear the marks of the era there too much. However, you do notice the power pop paradigm in their most popular tunes. While their revivalism does come from their participation in the Paisley Underground, they did imbue all of the elements of the past with their own set of skills. They do remind you of Prince in a way, so no surprise they collaborated together.

The thread from the weekend of the Beatles’ 1967 Bangor trip and Brian’s death to the vultures descending and India...

'He was like your father. I will be your father now.’

I think John got particularly frightened.

There was no one steering the ship.

...they were all there for the rich pickings called the Beatles. I thought it was a very sinister meeting.

Well, no, I’m afraid not, Robert.

They were able to fall back on what the Maharishi would advise...

John wasn’t in good shape at that time...Paul took the lead in Brian’s absence.

Brian’s death kind of opened the floodgates.

The trouble with him dying at that moment was that it actually pushed them into the arms of the Maharishi, whereas if he hadn’t died, it would have blown over...The Beatles would not have gone to India and all these things would not have happened.
