Stewart, age 83, was seen attending a Godspeed You! Black Emperor concert in Charleston, South Carolina on Saturday, Nov 16, according to a report by Stereogum. 

The popular Canadian post-rock band, which formed in 1994, had been playing at Charleston's Music Farm. There, those in the audience posted about spotting Stewart in the crowd on X the following day.

"Dude Martha Stewart is at the Godspeed you black emperor show wtf," wrote one attendee, who also confirmed she "stayed the whole time." 

Another commented on the sighting: "Martha Stewart hanging out in standing room floor of a small venue in Charleston to see Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Alan Sparhawk was cool."

Although no official confirmation proves Stewart was at the show, there is evidence she would be into Godspeed You! Black Emperor; she was seen at a performance given by Mick Barr (Ocrilim), a similar artist: 

There's also more circumstantial evidence, as Stewart was in Charleston on Saturday to promote her 100th cookbook at the Gallard Center, Stereogum reported. 

Provided she was actually there, Stewart picked a good time to see the band — the Charleston date was their last show for a while, as their remaining tour dates had to be rescheduled because of an illness in the band, as per their record label's Instagram page.
