may I ask about the mitski curse or is it secret knowledge

*LONG POST INCOMING* It all started in 2016.

I've been a Mitski fan since 2014 when First Love/Late Spring premiered on Stereogum and desperately wanted to see her live. The chance finally came after I moved to New York; I had tickets for her show in February 2016 at The Knitting Factory. But then. A freeze hit the city that weekend, resulting in a pipe in the shitty apartment bursting so I missed the show because I had to wait for the emergency repair guy to come by. Okay, well that's a bummer, I though. I've been waiting for almost two years to see Mitski but surely I'll get another chance. July 2016. I was living in Texas for the summer, a few hours away from Austin, where Mitski had a show scheduled. Perfect! I can drive up to the show! My old, barely functioning truck can handle the drive! It did not. My car broke down two hours outside Austin.

November 2016. Third try to see Mitski in a year is the charm, right? Oh wait, I waited too long to buy a flight to my grandma's for thanksgiving and I had to fly out the day of the Mitski show because every other flight was $500 more expensive.

By 2017 I was starting to get worried. I had tickets to see her April 2017, but I got horrific food poisoning and couldn't get out of bed for three days.

I didn't get another try until late 2018 on the Be The Cowboy tour during her 4 night residency at Brooklyn Steel. Except Mitski's popularity had blown up significantly and I couldn't get tickets when they went on sale the first three shows. BUT THEN a fourth show was added, on a Monday night, and I finally got tickets! Perfect! Until I had a final project for one of my classes scheduled the same night that I could not miss without failing the class, and I desperately tried to find tickets for another night but none were available for under $300.

At that point I was convinced: I was cursed. There were no tour dates I was even able to TRY to make, and then in September 2019 Mitski played Summer Stage (two weeks after I moved from New York) and announced it would indefinitely be her last live show.

October 2021: Mitski releases Working for the Knife and announces a tour. The closest tour date to where I was living was 8 hours away, but I fought for my life for tickets and was determined I would finally break the curse.

I got COVID two days before Mitski's Denver show in March 2022.

BUT WAIT! Mitski was announced as one of the openers for HSLOT's European stadium leg! And my friends and I planned a bar trip to Scotland that lined up with the weekend of Harry's show in Glasgow! Okay, maybe seeing Mitski as an opener at a stadium show isn't ideal, but I was desperate. Except, of course, the stadium entry was a complete mess, and we didn't get into the show until the very end of Mitski's set. I had finally seen her live, but for 8 minutes and at what cost.

I wasn't happy, but I told myself it wasn't the end of the world because I already had plans to see Mitski at the All Things Go festival in October, so redemption would come soon enough. Then Hurricane Ian hit and my flight to DC that had a layover in Orlando was cancelled the day before I was supposed to leave. At that point, there was nothing I could do but laugh. Why did I think it would go any differently this time? No. I couldn't take it anymore. I dropped wayyyyy too much money on a different flight to DC with no layover. That flight was delayed by 5 hours, but I made it. Nothing was going to stop me.

Mitski's set starts. We're in the pit, I'm 5'2" so I'm on my tip toes, straining my neck to keep my eyes on Mitski. And then. Everyone's BeReals went off during Francis Forever and the crowd became a sea of phones. I was crushed. I had broken the curse, but 9 years too late.

#SORRY you were definitely expecting a short answer but this is one of the fundamental pieces of my lore #so yep. that's the mitski curse.

Generally I’m fine with 1D fans but it also seems like a good portion of 1D fans are Larries or they have very rancid takes about Harry and treat him like he’s 16. Every time I see someone on Twitter or tiktok spewing the most ridiculous crap, I check their page and they more than likely are a 1D fan. And I would like to abolish Larries and don’t want to see them at Harry’s shows (sorry not sorry! They only support a made up version of Harry, not the real person) The girl in front of me at my DC HSLOT show was fully decked out in 1D gear with a Larry manip phone case and honestly it was super cringy and distracting. Like her phone case was literally 17 year old Harry and L*uis embracing. In the year 2021, please be serious 😭

I’m here for Harry and Harry only. Yes he started in that band and that’s all well and good but they don’t exist anymore and haven’t been a band in 6 freaking years so it’s time to give it up at this point besties. And I said what I said 🤷🏻‍♀️

THAT IS SOOOO EMBARRASSING MY GODDDD AND YEA MAJORITY NOW ARE ALSO LARRIES LMAO BUT YES EXACTLYYYY

Anonymous asked: I did a 1D treadmill strut and I’m telling u right now I’ve never lasted 15 minutes on a treadmill and I lasted the whole 40 minute workout bc I was having a good time basically having a rock concert the old lady next to me probably thought I was nuts

LMFAO SO TRUEEEEE

Paige I just realized the last time I saw Harry was Sept 18th in DC for HSLOT last fall and I’m seeing him again at MSG on September 21st so it will almost be a year to the day in between my shows 😭

OMGGGG FULL CIRCLE MOMENT

Going to HSLOT has instilled in me a FERAL desire to travel/go to more concerts and I just found out lizzo is in DC later this month and there’s so many ticket options for under $200 and I’m resisting the urge to impulse buy a ticket so bad
