Plini - An Unnameable Desire North American Tour

You found this. Be the first one here.

Instrumental music has to earn every single minute, because nobody is being carried along by a chorus or a story — and the crowd for this is unusually clear-eyed about that, which makes them a demanding audience and a generous one at once. Plini writes long-form guitar music that resolves rather than sprawls, warm where the genre is usually cold, and the online community that grew around it is one of the last genuinely nerdy corners of guitar culture: people posting tab, arguing about tone, learning the parts. A meaningful fraction of any room on this tour can play what is happening on stage, which changes the atmosphere entirely. Watch the front rows during the difficult passages. Music at 7:00 PM in Ventura on East Thompson Boulevard. This is a Saturday, and the players who come to it tend to travel in groups from whatever guitar forum or Discord raised them.
