Some of y'all may remember MTV's Alternative Nation or 120 Minutes, awesome programs & incredible ways to discover #music back in the 80s & 90s...

The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

It just crossed my radar that RK are reuniting and have some upcoming dates in the US and one in Canada. Also some reissues.

Enjoy a super low quality MV of this song.

There are some good clips being uploaded from the latest shows.

I wish more people realized just how awesome Rilo Kiley were, I revisit their sadly sparse discography all the frickin time and it is always rewarding even if Jenny would only grow and mature as a songwriter from there.

Thank you for sharing! I’m stoked to hopefully get to see Jenny Lewis live. It wasn’t RK, but when I first heard Rabbit Fur Coat I was instantly hooked. Her vocals are awesome

Thanks for sharing! I didn't realize the Watson twins joined her for acid tongue. I wish I could've caught one of those tours! RK is still going to be great to see though

The Acid Tongue album recording has different personnel. This setlist from about that time shows that a few of the songs that ended up on Acid Tongue a few years later, were being performed on the Rabbit Fur Coat tour.

Enjoy the upcoming show!

You’re most welcome. I was lucky enough to see her with the Watson Twins on that tour. It was amazing!
