Has she only ever heard Almost Crimes? That's laughable.

Seriously? I've heard nothing of this.
 
 That's neat if true; Almost Crimes sounds like a Dino Jr. song. [/b]

They did mention something about Mascis last night. Can't remember exactly what they said.
 
 And is it just me, or did that show not feel like it was sold out? There seemed to be more breathing room compared to other sold out shows. [/b]

It was pretty packed up front, that's for sure.  After people started to trail out to catch the Metro, go home so mommy and daddy wouldn't get mad for being out late on a school night, etc., it definitely got less crowded.

Northampton would make more sense. Freakscene.net has no news of this whatsoever. [/b]

That must be it...I didn't think they did two shows in MA.

Something just didn't sit right with me after that show. And after a few restless nights I realized what it is: I hate it when people play air guitar on stage. It was increadibly annoying when the girl from Feist kept doing it. You're in a fucking band. You have real guitarists. Put the Bill and Ted away and put on a show, damnit.

did feist play with a full band?  i saw her opening for british sea power last year, and she played solo with only an electric guitar.  it was my first time ever hearing her and i thought she sounded great, so i bought her album but wasn't as blown away by it as i was her live performance.  i'm planning on seeing her open for bright eyes in november, so i'm just wondering what her usual setup is.  solo or w/ backup band?

I thought it was really cool when she did it.
 
 I was really attracted to her, too.
 
 And just so you know, she IS Feist. She isn't "the girl from Feist." Her name is Leslie Feist, and the band that was playing with her was just her backing band.
