I&#8217;ve loved her music for a little over a year now and her music still means a lot to me. Being able to see her live was a wonder and I was so thankful for the opportunity to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d been preparing for her tour as soon as tickets dropped- finding the setlist, listening to it on repeat, educating my parents on her music, you name it. I was so incredibly excited to see her live. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The day of the concert was slightly worrisome, as there were threats of a storm and I was concerned that rain would become a problem. Luckily, the weather remained clear (the storm missed us entirely) and the threat of the concert rescheduling, or worse, cancelling entirely, was alleviated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We arrived pretty early, taking our time to find our seats and look around. I had known multiple people from my school who would be going and I used this time to try and spot them (in the end, I unfortunately only ended up meeting one). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The opening act was Arlo Parks, a musician whose music I had only somewhat listened to. Listening to her in real life, though, was spell bounding. Her music was gorgeous and her voice was beautiful. I loved hearing her songs in person and many of them are already on my playlist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mtiaki-2-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2427\" style=\"width:200px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mtiaki-2-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mtiaki-2-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mtiaki-2-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mtiaki-2-1536x2048.png 1536w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mtiaki-2-1200x1600.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After another 30 minutes of waiting, it was Mitski&#8217;s time to shine. Her songs were so beautiful and I loved her choreography and lighting, both of which were incredibly unique. For example, in one of her songs, she slow-dances with a beam of light and in another, she is trapped in a cage of light. Being able to see all of these songs which I loved live was amazing and I could tell the whole crowd was enjoying it too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"2420\" src=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-8-1-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2423\" src=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-7-2-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-7-2-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-7-2-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-7-2-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-7-2-1536x2048.png 1536w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-7-2-1200x1600.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2424\" src=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-1152x2048.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-1200x2133.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/mitksi-5-2-scaled.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 85vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2425\" src=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-1152x2048.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-1200x2133.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/ourowncorner.com\/themintgirl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/IMG_5283-2-scaled.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 85vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As the show came to a close, we were one of the first ones out, meaning that we were able to stand in the merch (short for merchandise) line before it grew too long and I walked away with a T-shirt which I really love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This concert has been one of my favorite experiences and I&#8217;m so grateful and happy that I was able to go.
