Hit up Gibson Amphitheater last night with my very special lady friend/notgirlfriend (for now) to check out Feist and Spoon. I’ve now become part of the Crackberry nation through work which means I don’t carry around a celly with a camera anymore, so unfortunately no LouVisions of us having a great time.
Spoon was fun.. Take 1 part Elvis Costello and 1 part Billy Joel and a dash of John Lennon and, well, you’ve got a good party.. or you have Spoon. Their songs tend to sound the same, but they are still pretty enjoyable. It was good tunes to get our first drinks down. Her: Double Vodka Cranberry. Me: Double Tanqueray Rocks, (naturally).
Feist was amazing all around.. From her shadow dancing her way to the first song, to getting us to sing harmony, to orchestrating the complete digital lighting of the theatre with all our cell phones and lighters to the projected backdrop with finger painting or stencils or whatever was going on to my completely losing my shit to the third or fourth song to my UnGirlfriend’s calling out of “I Feel It All” moments before it began to the bottle of Merlot in a huge 7 Eleven type cup we drank to finally getting to rock out a bit to “1,2,3,4″ and “Mushaboom” live.. Just a amazing night all around.
You should’ve seen my face when I suddenly realized it was a Monday night and that instead of staying up late and lounging around my bed all day, we had to get up early and go to work today.. What a shame.
Oh well.. It was worth it.. Great night.
Mahalo,
