For those who were at the show last night, around what time did each set start at?

Feist on around 9:16p. Not sure about grizzly.

grizzly at 8pm sharp. Feist at 9:15pm sharp. Town hall is very strict about shows being on time.

Feist was amazing, adorable and her voice sounds like melted sugar!

can't wait for this new realm of BBS music! very exciting!

I'm pretty sure that Kevin Drew is gay, no?.... making him an unlikely candidate to be her boyfriend.

In any case - as lovely as Feist is - I wish he had sung on Lover's Spit.

yeah awesome evening. both bands were incredible. IDEAL SETTING

i was completely mesmerized by the grizzly bear show, they are so good. and fiest was incredible...so basically one of the best shows I have EVER seen. i really wish i could go again tonight.

I was in the first row...amazing show from both Grizzly Bear and Feist...the whistling boy for "The Park" had instant fame.

how much?

Irrelevant, but Mando Diao is shooting a video in NYC:

Looks like Feist made some chick cry last night.

damnit. i missed grizzly bear. my date was late.

feist was really great though. her voice sounds even better live.

They really do love eachother... the way she was tousseling his hair and the way he kissed her forearm after the performance... was too authentic...

Overall the night was REALLY good... highlights were Mushaboom, The Park, The Water, and Let It Die.

Grizzly Bear was ON last night, was my 5th time seeing them, and I agree that it was one of their best performances to date, which leads me to believe they are getting tighter and tighter.

The only gripe I have was the lighting... wtf? Horrible for pics unless you were like 3 feet from the stage.

I recorded Grizzly's set but not Feist since I wanted to enjoy her's as it was my first time. I'm glad I got to enjoy it.

Yeah people, get there early for grizzly. It's a nice warm up to Feist. My one problem with Feist was her set was about just 15 minutes too long. Otherwise, Perfection. I am in love with her and want to marry her but could only do that in Big Love, Utah land since I'm already married.

Tom, how much for seat for tonight's show???

Great Feist performance last night, although the pacing was not unlike a BSS show with some long between-song interludes for chatter and tunings. But she continually involved the audience, coaching the crowd to sing choruses, try multi-part harmonizing and engage in bird-whistling. The song choices were interesting (agree with BV that the new material was strongest) as she played a lot of the quieter pieces (which were lovely) and didn't depend on the more rocking songs to propel the evening along. A wonderful entertainer who is only getting better.

It was really good, but I don't agree that her voice is better live.

anyone have the set list from last night?

i nearly EXPLODED in ecstasy when kevin came out to play. They really do look like they are in love and maybe I'll stop hating Feist so much for stealing my boyfriend? ha.

Where will tix for the McCarren FEIST show be on sale? Have looked at the usual sites and don't see a listing for it yet? Thanks.

tixs go on sale at noon on friday through live nation. think it'll sell out quick? still deciding if i want to see her in a bigger venue. last night's show had such a nice feel to it.

Feist was loveliness personified.

I put up a few vids of hers and a GB one too.

Thanks, BV, for alerting us to that presale months ago. I am so thankful for that front row experience.

Great show - def get there early for Grizzly Bear. first time seeing them live and it was magical. ed droste is a sexy beast. so is BV.

$30 at Irving Plaza box office, don't forget.

McCarren has a capacity of around 5,000. I doubt Feist'll sell out superfast. Both the BTS/CP and SY shows are still available, and they've been on sale for over a month.

I've seen clips of GB but I wasn't blown away. The guitar playing is sorta weak in my opinion, but the flute sounds are pretty cool.

check yourself before you wreck yourself anon.
dan rocks on the guitar.

you have to see it live, shitty videos dont' do it justice.

paul mccartneys apparently playing at highline ballroom tomorrow night... according to fader. crazy.

apparently my friend Jeff got onstage and was doing bird calls with Feist at one part of the show into her looping mic....did anyone see this??

george,

there's something about your friend here: http://www.villagevoice.com/blogs/music/archives/2007/06/live_feist_at_t.php

thanks jc

i have a few pics of jeff onstage with feist. if he wants them, he/you can email me, and i'll email them to you when i get home.

Hey Tom, is there a way to contact you? I am still interested in a ticket for tonight, does 35$ do it for you?

-Jonathan

Jonathan - I'm looking for $45 to cover the ticket and fees. If you're interested, my e-mail is trw75@yahoo.com.

Tom, I am trying to email to the above address but its not working; its saying its undeliverable. Anyway, where should I meet you and when...
my cell is 646-345-1587

Jonathan - Sorry I left out the S. If you could try the address again T R W S 7 5 @yahoo.com (without spaces). I'm not by a phone and don't have cell service where I am.

Check myself before I wreck myself? Okay...I'll be sure to keep that in mind before viewing wimpy indie-bands. :)

Tom, 745 at Town hall? My cell is 646-345-1587. I will have my green packpack with me, if that helps at all.

-Jonathan

jonathan/tom -- get yourself a room already!

ten bucks (or one McCartney ticket) says this guy will be posting mad hate tomorrow after he shows up and no one is there to meet him and his green backpack except a large mixed race feller and his 45.

so how manybv readers have called Jonathan and Tom to screw with them?

Cab ride to Town Hall : $10

Feist / Grizzly Bear tickets: $45

Posting your cell phone # on the internet.......Priceless

yeah, that thing about Leslie and Kevin datingis indeed true. at least, that's according to the new york times. they did a piece in April (Sunday times) about Feist that mentioned her dating Kevin. it was a big piece on the cover of the Sunday Arts. anyone have a link?

did kevin cross-over then, or was he never gay?

Well, he was married to the woman he was making out with in the Lover's Spit video until last year, so I'm gonna say he was prob never really gay.

Just back from tonight's performance. Transcendent. If anyone has the set lists for Feist and GB, please post.

what? jess? kevin? married? before? more info PLEASE!!!!!

Kevin was married for a number of years, until pretty recently I think, to Jo-Ann Goldsmith, who has played trumpet with Broken at various times and is credited as a member on the self-titled album. She also plays in a very fun Toronto band called The Old Soul.

And yeah, that's them in the Lover's Spit video.

Saw Feist tonight (Tues). It was really good, though I think I over-hyped myself a bit. I was really expecting an incredible show, and instead it was just really good. Actually, the soft songs were unbelievably good. Her voice is amazing, and the songs are amazing. But the rocking songs just never took off. I found it a little frutrating, not that they were bad, because they were good, but I was expecting something more. Songs like "my moon, my man" and "I feel it all" just seemed a tad weak to me.

But the slow songs really were amazing. On those songs the backing band was very minimal and it was perfect, because you mostly just wanted that voice. But otherwise I agree with that VV article that the backing band was lacking.

It occurs to me that maybe I've earned my stripes as a BV commentor... criticizing a perfectly good show!

grizzly bear were better but she is still great.

lee part 2?

Grizzly Bear was far better.

Went the 2nd night. Missed most of Grizzly Bear because I spent 10 minutes trying to boot a dude that was in our seats. They sounded real good from the little i heard.

Feist was good but less than what i expected. Way too many slow songs chosen. She had a lot of upbeat songs that she chose to leave out. I was denied "One Evening." I expected it during the encore after she had everyone on their feet during "Sea Lion Woman" but chose "Let it Die" instead leaving everyone standing in silence. She has a great voice but either the vocals were really low during the upbeat songs or she doesnt really put enough energy behind her voice.

I would like to see the set list from the night before just to read what i missed but I cant find it anywhere.

Feist w/ Kevin Drew at McCarren Park on 8/29 presale today at 3pm:
