This is the second time in the past week or so that I’ve seen auto-captions on Reddit randomly pull out some racist shit on live performance videos

Haha nobody having a clue of what’s going on. Never saw this. Must’ve been around the time he was playing this song in the dog park

The one in the dog park was apparently in February, exact date tho? Dunno... but this one was in November after their show at L'Olympia Bruno Coquatrix. I managed to find this video posted on a Facebook page and then I found more about this particular performance, so yeah pretty cool! There's also a video of Still Beating but it's behind a paywall: https://www.tf1.fr/tmc/quotidien-avec-yann-barthes/videos/mac-demarco-still-beating-live-quotidien-exclu-web.html

OMG THANK YOU !! I've been looking for this every now and then since I saw it live. Mac is magnetic in this performance. 🤩
I remember he said something about his band already moving to the next city of the tour, which is why he was alone on stage that night.

Glad you enjoyed it! He also played Still Beating and I found a link to it but unfortunately it's behind a paywall
