00:00 So, um, we've actually never played that song live before.
00:06 Because of that one thing you said about the Aerostore, you think you can go online, you think you can just scroll in the setlist, you think you can just come prepared,
00:22 you've got your little flashcards in your pocket, I know what's next, I know what she wears next, I know what she sings next.
00:30 Let it be said about the Aerostore, we're Trixie. That's what we are.
00:36 We enjoy good, healthy, setlist hijinks.
00:43 So we've played a new song. Did you like it? Did you have fun?
00:51 So, um, we are in the middle of the folklore era.
00:55 It's really woodsy in here, all of a sudden we've got a cabin, um, I'm dressed like a Victorian ghost, it's all happening on this stage, very folklorian.
01:11 But, you know, the thing about folklore that I'll always think about when I imagine that album in my head is that it was the first time I ever gave myself a break from writing, like, excruciatingly autobiographical songs.
01:26 Right? It was the first time I thought, you know what, there's so many stories in the world. Not all of them are about me.
01:35 So I started creating characters and story arcs and I got really, really carried away and it was kind of a form of escapism for me during the pandemic.
01:45 And so I wanted to play you a song that is a story of a, from the perspective of a teenage boy named James who really messes things up with the world he's in right now.
01:58 And her name is Fanny.
02:03 [Music]
02:12 Betty I won't make assumptions about why you switched your homeroom but I think it's cause of me.
02:20 Betty one time I was riding on a skateboard when I passed your house, it's like I couldn't breathe.
02:31 You heard the rumors from the ads, you can't believe a word she says, most times, this time it was true.
02:39 The worst thing that I ever did was what I did to you.
02:53 What if I just showed up at your party, would you have me, would you want me, would you tell me to go fuck myself.
03:01 Would you take me to the garden, in the garden, would you trust me if I told you it was just a summer thing.
03:09 I'm only 17, I don't know anything but I know I miss you.
03:16 [Music]
03:24 Betty I know where it all went wrong, your favorite song was playing at the far side of the gym.
03:32 I was nowhere to be found, I hate the crowds you know that, plus I saw you dance with him.
03:44 You heard the rumors from the ads, you can't believe a word she says, most times, this time it was true.
03:52 The worst thing that I ever did was what I did to you.
04:06 What if I just showed up at your party, would you have me, would you want me, would you tell me to go fuck myself.
04:14 Would you take me to the garden, in the garden, would you trust me if I told you it was just a summer thing.
04:22 I'm only 17, I don't know anything but I know I miss you.
04:28 [Music]
04:36 I was walking home, my broken pommel's gone, she's thinking of you and she pulled up.
04:44 I was creeping up my worst intention and she said, "Jane's getting less hot."
04:50 So, please trip in tonight, sit next to her, I'm trying to get you on summer love.
04:58 [Music]
05:10 Then he out here on the doorstep, got the plan in out for weeks now, but it's finally sickening.
05:19 Feeling right now is the last time I can dream about what happened to see my face again.
05:27 The only thing I want to do is make it up to you.
05:40 So, I showed up at your party.
05:50 Yeah, I showed up at your party.
06:00 Yeah, I showed up at your party.
06:10 Yeah, I showed up at your party.
