Mitski 'The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We' Concert @ Boston's MGM Music Hall 2/18/24

I instantly became a fan of Mitski in February. I truly knew nothing about her early in February. She was a recommendation via the Ticketmaster app. I figured I'd check out her show. I love all kinds of music. I especially love live music. I purchased a ticket to her 1st night (of 4) in Boston. I listened to some of her music prior to the show. I thought it was cool, but it didn't turn me into a fan. I went to the show thinking I would be entertained, but not wowed. I was so wrong. I was in absolute awe throughout the entire show. The wow factor was huge! I had to see her again. I purchased a ticket to her 2nd show. I was in awe that night as well. I took pictures. I was in front row for that one, so it was ideal for photos. The 3rd night came. I was so tempted, but I passed. I thought it would be overkill. The 4th night came, I caved. I had to go. This video is of her 4th night in Boston. Mitski is a true artist and an amazing performer. I'm not articulate enough to properly describe her show and how it hit me. Her shows are works of art. Her music takes on a special kind of life in concert. She is a truly special performer. She's an incredibly talented singer/songwriter. For music lovers and fans of live shows, I very highly recommend seeing her in concert. My crappy fan cam doesn't properly convey the experience, but it at least offers a slight hint of it. Her shows must be seen and experienced live for the total impact. This video is just a glimpse at best. Please check out her KZbin channel and her website if you haven't already.

P.S. The video is a especially wobbly towards the end. Unfortunately, my arms suck at being a good tripod.

As soon as she started singing I cried , thanks

[@happyjack71]

You're very welcome! 😊 I was also moved by her singing. She sings so beautifully.

[@hrldn170]

So happy that you fell in love with Mitski. Check out her older stuff (I figure you already have, but her Boston Calling set especially Happy and her SXSW I want you performances are my favorite). This was my favorite concert experience from her so far- feels like she's finally got the budget to back all her ambition and potential. Thanks for uploading so we can all revisit.

[@happyjack71]

Thank you for the recommendations! And you're very welcome! 😊

AAAHH I WAS HERE THAT DAY WITH MY MOM FOR MY 16TH LATE BIRTHDAY GIFT!!! this whole experience was absolutely beautiful, i got chills seeing her live for the first time. glad u found her, all of her music is beautiful. (as a long time fan)🩷

[@rosehami8901]

I just bought a ticket to see her in Detroit and I can't even fathom it truly that I'm going to be seeing her

[@happyjack71]

You're going to be captivated by her performance and her show. It's a beautiful work of art. I don't typically see concerts in such a way, but hers is. Mitski is a true artist.

[@C1cadaW1ngz]

Im going on September 10 ♡♡♡ Im gonma cry so hard

[@adrianbrown7271]

Wonderful stuff. Went with my daughter to see her in Brussels, as she's a fan, and was mesmerised by the best live performance I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing.

[@happyjack71]

You're very welcome! This is one of the best shows I've ever attended. It was an incredible experience.😊

[@eeeyooohoh]

[@happyjack71]

[@happyjack71]

You're going to be in absolute awe of her show. For me, she set the bar very high on what a show should be. Her show is art. It's beautiful.

[@Kazureimi]

You are the best dude, thanks for this ❤

[@happyjack71]

You're very welcome! 😊

[@earlbird2457]

I saw her this monday thats just gone and i am still not over it if i had the money i’d be going to the 3 shows in london. Gotta settle for this so im so thankful for you posting it ❤️

[@happyjack71]

You're very welcome! She had 4 shows in Boston. I wish I had attended all 4. I only saw 3 of the 4 shows. I've never experienced a show like this one. I've been to many shows, but this one is truly special.

[@evikabelfon3715]

I might go on September 17

[@cursedmushroom8863]

The way she slow danced with the spotlight during Heaven was GENIUS

[@happyjack71]

I love how she treats the lights as if they're living beings. It's so beautiful.

[@C1cadaW1ngz]

Let me go now

[@Annawannnnnaaa]

I can hear myself screaming

[@happyjack71]

I wonder if you were right behind me. There was a super excited fan sitting behind me. The show was awesome and exciting, which is why I went to 3 of her shows in Boston. 😊

[@Annawannnnnaaa]

@@happyjack71 I was on the right box seats I was screaming a lot I was very happy

[@heyitsbeela]

woah I am SHOCKED when she walk around the stage like a dog 😳

[@Air.Monitor]

When you get tickets for a Miami show, she really gives you a show worth a million dollars

[@haileyg7606]

i was at mitski’s orlando shows and noticed her saying swapping “take this job from me” and “take my job from me” in i don’t like my mind. i know it’s so small but i am just curious if it’s intentional or not.

[@ansleymira27]

Pretty sure that’s how the song is supposed to go

[@rorolovesfolklore]

I SAW HER NIGHT 1 IN BOSTON

[@happyjack71]

I was at night one as well. I ended up going to nights two and four because the show was so awesome. I wish I had gone to night three. I don't usually go to multiple shows like that. Mitski is so good, though. I had just discovered her prior to seeing her in concert. I wish I had known about her a lot sooner. She's awesome!

[@rorolovesfolklore]

@@happyjack71 wow that's awesome. i went w my friend i was my first concert

[@happyjack71]

That was an awesome show to go to for your 1st concert. It's one of the best shows I've ever experienced. I've been to many.

[@rorolovesfolklore]

@@happyjack71 :)

[@EllieThetherian114]

The song my baby hits hard ;(

[@KM-tk2ih]

Her dancing style reminds me of a mix between Kate Bush and Björk.

[@happyjack71]

I definitely can see the Bjork similarities. By the way, I saw Bjork while I was in Tokyo years ago. Not in concert, though she had one there at the time. She was exploring gift shops in Asakusa, Tokyo. She was checking out some weird dresses. I didn't approach her. I respected her space. She's fascinating. Much like Mitski. Oh, Bjork was in Tokyo to perform at Orchard Hall. It was in December 2001.

[@giacomoboffi9394]

You said (19:58) that, technically, you are not one of the best singers… I say you are the absolute best for singing from uncomfortable positions!

[@happyjack71]

She has a beautiful voice. She's clearly super humble. Her voice is Heaven to the ears.
