This is the most wholesome house show video I’ve ever seen.

Suddenly discovered this video. It's great. He sings good and I like the song.

so, i’m sobbing right now because this song is so fucking special to me, and I actually live in davis. like what are the chances that pinegrove would’ve played a show here. It was really weird because I got in a traumatic accident about a month ago and had to be sedated in the ER. They gave me a bunch of ketamine and I remember having this completely dissociative near-death trip thing where I was floating away from life on this earth as I knew it, but this song was playing start to finish in my K-hole. at the time, my relationship was falling apart and I realized I was losing someone i loved so deeply and didn’t quite know why. so my polo team was the only thing i had to keep me busy, but during a game in this huge tournament where I was playing the best i’d ever played, I fell and broke my arm super bad and h it my head. so it was pretty surreal, losing this girl i loved and losing the ability to do the other things that kept me sane-playing sports and school. after the hospital, like literally 2 weeks after, pinegrove was playing in sacramento so i went to go see them. i couldn’t figure out why the fuck this song had played very clearly in my k-hole. Then, I finally got sat down and kind of analyzed it. in my very biased opinion, Aphasia is this bittersweet anthem to moving on from a deep attachment (there are both references to a relationship and the idea of moving thru life quietly and blindly) and finding a deep peace. it’s introspective and wistful, but ultimately rejoices in the absurdity and impermanence of life and love. i’m so grateful this song exists because I didn’t think anyone could ever put words to all of these feelings i’ve been having. it’s helped me process my breakup and injuries better than my therapist has 😂 it’s uncanny how much i relate to this song rn, and crazier that there’s a video of them playing in the same tiny town in california where i am now.

Yo I felt this! Sometimes you feel a certain way so strongly and the most painful part about it is not being able to communicate to others just how prodigious it truly is, and questioning if anyone has or ever will understand it as you do. Ketamine can amplify this as well ;)

You're beautiful and you matter. You are as amazingly unique as this house show. May God bless you and lead you into His arms in times of trouble in Jesus' name. Believe in Jesus Christ to be saved

How did this event come about? It’s so wholesome damn.

[@Joshua-ye2eo]

Oh my gosh!! That should be for anything Pinegrove, but here I must confess it's because at the age of 42, this is the first other use of Polyorchid since the early 90s in middle school when I randomly found the definition in a dictionary and thought, WHAT!? Then I drew these fake stages of growth like a lily pad with 3 stems that grew bulbs and then bloomed in the margins of some classroom work and my teacher asked me if I needed to keep the stages of orchid I drew. Lolololol. Since then, I've never seen the word once until just now.

[@justincox3355]

So funny! My friends and I were starting a band and kicking around names when I stumbled on the definition just like you (online though) and pitched the idea. We very rarely shared what it meant, but it was always a hit when we did. It was always fun when people knew.

Wow this is so good
