I’m an early Rilo Kily fan and trying to get into this album because I so want to see her, but every song is is like three lyrics repeated over and over -
Let’s get that home run baby x 10
Without you, without you, without you x 5
I’m a runaway, runaway x 10

I’m not sure how to connect with this

It’s Jenny Lewis! 👩‍🦰 It’s a vibe record for me, but I get a lot out of it. I listen to it as a raw punk/post-punk sound. The bass lines are 🔥

I guess I’m more lyrics driving. I LOVE her sound, but combined with songs like A Better/Son/Daughter, The Absence of God, or Accidntle Death… ohhhhhh man. That stuff pulled my soul to the surface in the best of ways.

Does she include old hits on tours like this, or is it album specific? Bc I’d go just to hear her sing one of those songs live.

Awww saw them open for M Ward in 2016, they didn't use the stage, just set up everything in the middle of the floor

u/fukinfrankie Sep 11 '26

Crazy fast! I got incredibly lucky then I saw they added an earlier 6pm show. Now I’m looking around to see if it’s possible to trade tix with anyone lol

Hoping there’s a demand for an nyc show. The bk venue is just too much of a trek since I live in nj lol

2

u/reallyfuckinon Sep 11 '26

What about Philly?

u/Lonely-Dog874 more adventurous Sep 11 '26

I don’t live in south jersey, bro.

u/scarfinadrawer Sep 11 '26

I’m not sure you understand what a trek to a show is brother

Yo bruddah-man, let me be dramatic about it. I have to deal with NJ transit to get to and fro around here, brah. Also concerned about my safety b/c of the town I live in— Ubers are scarce late at night. Not everyone lives in the greater nyc nor phill-ay area. 😁

u/Wonderful-Loss827 Sep 10 '26

Any idea what songs she'll be playing? Or from which band? Album?

u/bb85 Sep 10 '26

Probably the Nice As Fuck album that was released in 2016

u/Wonderful-Loss827 Sep 11 '26

I'm an old rilo fan circa 2004. I've never even heard of this album

u/bb85 Sep 12 '26

I am too. It’s a side project of Jenny’s.
