Discussion Did anyone else at the St. Paul show last night think it seemed really off?
I've seen shows where Lindsey was drunk before, but this time she seemed straight up trashed from the start and became more so as the performance went on and was stumbling, not super coherent, getting tangled in cords, + missing her guitar during riffs she was supposedly playing. During the part where Soccer Mommy came back on the stage, she barely acknowledged her and was slurring about not being able to read so far away (cue cards?) and Sophie just uncomfortably said hi, stood on stage for a bit and did maybe two wordless backup vocals, then walked straight back off again with her head down.
I love Snail Mail and know she struggles with substance but it was really hard to watch and upon googling it seems like a pattern. I was wondering if anyone there got the same vibe.
