Grimes @ MHOW, 10/25/2012

“I took Dramamine before the show and that’s why I’m forgetting the words to my songs!” admitted/joked Grimes’ Claire Boucher last night on stage. Lyric recollection or not, Grimes packed Music Hall of Williamsburg last night (10/25) for the first of four back-to-back, sold-out NYC shows, and fans (many of whom have adopted Claire’s style) were there to dance. With a stage adorned with flora and backed by Myths (who did their own support set as well), Grimes kept everyone moving. Mykki Blanco, who fared pretty well at CMJ too, opened the night.

Tonight, Grimes moves to Bowery Ballroom with openers Elite Gymnastics and just-announced Blood Orange. She’ll stay at Bowery for Saturday’s show (10/27) then it’s back to MHOW for her final NYC show on Sunday (10/28). Different openers each night while in NYC.
