The aftermost time Grizzly Bear came to Miami was June 18, 2013, the aforementioned day Kanye West’s Yeezus dropped. Across the bay from the Fillmore Miami Beach, the Miami Heat was assault the San Antonio Spurs in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. The opener was Majical Cloudz, which bankrupt up in 2016, and aback the capital act came onstage, accompanist Ed Droste ran to the mike to allotment how aflame Grizzly Bear was to assuredly accomplish in Miami.
["620.8"]I apperceive all of this because I was there. It was my aboriginal concert. I bethink actuality addled by the lights and affected with joy while seeing one of my admired bands in the flesh. Afterward, I scoured arcade malls for months attractive for red trousers like the ones Droste had beat onstage. I had somehow gone 18 years afterwards seeing a alive show, but afterwards that night, I boring began to accomplish a career out of it.
Such homesickness agency I’m apparently the amiss being to be reviewing Grizzly Bear’s acknowledgment to the Fillmore aftermost night. I went into the actualization alive that annihilation could beat the determinative acquaintance of that night four years ago. But abuse if they didn’t try.
["388"]There were a brace of problems. For one, the bandage was not absolutely as affable as before. They artlessly took their positions at the alpha of the set and commenced agreeable proceedings. Droste didn't abrasion red trousers, but a atramentous tee and clue pants. It took the activity of the army to get them to comedy forth and banter, authoritative cracks about activity to the bank afterwards soundcheck. And the adventurous plastic-bottle lanterns from the antecedent actualization were replaced by apparitional curtains, admirable strobes, and LEDs that fostered beneath acquaintance and added acting blindness.
What’s worse, abundant of the set was cribbed from their new album, Painted Ruins, the aboriginal arrant mediocrity in a aforetime aces oeuvre. Mind you, “the new anthology sucks” is possibly the best common, aged complaint one can make, but every time they played a new track, the affecting appulse of the actualization went flat. The old actual was artlessly too aerial aloft the rest.

That’s the affair about this show: The lows were low, but the highs were soaring. Outside of new anthology tracks, the set account was alike bigger this time around, ambience hits such as “Two Weeks” and “Yet Again” abutting to beatnik renditions of added cuts such as “On a Neck, on a Spit,” “Sun in Your Eyes,” and “Foreground.”
The openers excelled too. Aboriginal was Aquafeet, an Orlando bandage that commutual shoegaze drones and furnishings pedals with indie-rock guitar shredding and a diva whose actualization was agnate to Droste's. Serpentwithfeet, whom you ability accept apparent at III Points, sauntered onstage in high-heeled, knee-high boots, red covering burden pants with a atramentous Barbie baby in one of the pockets, a actual abysmal v-neck catchbasin top, a abounding beard, a adenoids ring, and a biscuit beanie. He bantered with the admirers midsong, improvising new lyrics afterwards breaking the melody and crooning intimate, abatement balladry — “adult lullabies” about beastly all-overs and the writings of Toni Morrison — in a tender, bewitching, hyperactive voice. He was a cantankerous amid a street-corner preacher and a drag-ball abode mother; frankly, he about surpassed the headliner.
["190.12"]All things considered, aftermost night’s Grizzly Bear actualization bigger aloft the 2013 actualization acknowledgment to able openers and the connected resonance of the aback catalogue. First-timers in the admirers would accept had a acceptable beginning. As for me, I’m aloof animated I got to apprehend the song I atomic accepted but best wanted, “Fine for Now,” off 2009’s Veckatimest. I about went into shock as they played the aperture chords. Alone in the crowd, I befuddled berserk like a abandoned beastly in a blizzard, affected not with memories of adolescence but with the hopes and dreams the song aggressive in me as a adolescent man. I’ve never had a stronger acknowledgment to a tune, and I never will afresh — until the bandage returns.
