Alex G - Pretend @ Rough Trade East, London

November 29th 2022

I've been looking forward to this show for so long. Songs like Runner and Bobby really put my mind at ease. Mission literally sends my brain into an introspective spiral and shuts down my body. I could go on and on. He's just great. And he's such a nice guy! He took so many requests and he signed 300 CDs with a smile. I hope he's having a great time out there!

And I love Rough Trade East for doing these signings! I got autographs from Aurora and Sigrid here too. Awesome store!

Alex G forgets lyrics to songs he's written that any other artist wishes they wrote

[edanaryan]

Im crying youre so lucky to hear this live

[rattie]

I was there right at the front, was so close to crying during this song it means so much to me, I would give so much to go back and listen to it live again

[kvothelovespizza]

this is the best version of this song. i can imagine alex sitting in his room or garage alone and just coming up with this.

[maddeypuppets]

I'd dieee, this is my favorite song of his and he usually refuses to play it. Love the little changes he made here <3

[bakewellspud]

it's nice to see him struggle with this song basically as much as i do lol

[KizKat]

It’s like when Rap artist will play unreleased songs cuz there popular. Except it’s indie rock, which is my personal fav
