Last night, Phoebe Bridgers played Madison Square Garden. For the past month, Bridgers has been playing last-minute pop-up shows and performing new songs all over the US. Those gigs have mostly been in smaller cities and smaller venues. Fans have had to line up to buy physical tickets, with only one per person, and recording devices have been banned from the venue. It’s one thing to keep recordings off the internet when you’re only dealing with a few hundred people in a room in Toledo. It’s another when you’re playing the same room that’s about to host game three of the NBA Finals, but that’s what Phoebe Bridgers did. And when she was onstage at the Garden, she told the crowd that she’s about to play a bunch of other arenas.
