Feist

I just went to the Feist concert here and it was so amazing - words fail me. Leslie Feist put on one of the best live acts I've ever seen. Her voice is incredible: fluid, flexible, beautiful. She had a terrific band of three guys who knew their music and could sing; even better, she knew when to use them and when to do it herself. I can't believe she can sing that well and play guitar like she does. It's awesome. If anyone gets a chance to go to one of her concerts, do it. If you have to sell your teddy bear to make it happen, do it. It's great.

Note also that this was a second concert opened up when the first one sold out, so it was all-ages and there was no alcohol. It made a huge difference; I wasn't really expecting it to matter that much. She even commmented on the difference between tonight's concert and last night, which was the originally scheduled event. Everyone was really there to listen tonight: the crowd was so quiet when she was on stage, and so loud when we were trying to get her to come back (she did). I loved it.
