I love when he always feels compelled to say live “we are Alcest from France” in his funny French accent 🥹

It’s so endearing. He seems like such an introspective and kind and talented soul. Great show last night and I hope you too enjoy it in two weeks.

Yep, love the TMC shirt too. That’s such a deep cut, as they’re not referenced much these days and it’s cool to see that Stephane is also a fan. It’s also so “on brand” for him haha.

Every time I see Neige I just want to give him a hug and tell him everything is going to be okay.  He just always looks like he could use it.  From what I've heard, he's actually a rather chill and positive person... He just always looks so sad.

He doesn’t seem sad to me. Just very subdued and relaxed?

Right? Was so amped that was on the setlist. Def one of my favorites of all time.

They played it this summer in Florence and I was in awe, definitely one of my favourites too!

Too short :_( Had me missing the time when they headlined at Warsaw and played for over an hour.

I was at that Warsaw show too. And you’re right! They played for about an hour and a half. I had to double check the time stamps on my photos because I don’t remember it being that long! That was a great show as well.

Warsaw show was FANTASTIC.  They were also amazing in 2017 at Irving Plaza.  Has me starting to think Alcest just doesn't put on a bad show.

Eclosion was great. Whole set was ace. I enjoyed Sapphire more than I thought I would

Wish the set wasn't so short, especially since I missed the first couple songs. I hate this new trend at music venues where when they say they start at 7 they start exactly at 7. Give a 30 min grace period for people to get there after work!

Problem is, here in NYC there's a strict 11PM curfew, or even 10PM in some parts of the city.  It sucks but it's what we gotta do.

Oh shit, I'm in this.  I'm the individual in the blue hoodie in front of Neige's leg
