SIA - a review from Fillmore (West) & coming East + SXSW

photos & words by Fresh Bread

Sia

Sia's show at the Fillmore in San Francisco last month was truly great. The house was full of what seemed to be die hard fans; there was an abundance of crowd interaction including three separate gift bag exchanges. A fan would give Sia the gift bag and Sia would open it on stage. Gifts included sparkly suspenders, a funky hat, miscellaneous tsatskes, and a pair of men's AND women's pants. seriously.

Set included tracks from her most recent album "Some People Have Real Problems" - my favorites included "Lentil" and "Academia". She also played an unreleased track from an upcoming animated series called "H Crusader"; the track "Co-Dependent" can be seen here. Encore track of "Sommersault" was really good too.

I missed opener Har Mar Superstar.

The Fillmore West (Sutter & Van Ness) closed in 1971 and is now a Honda dealership - you mean the Fillmore Auditorium (1805 Geary).

Saw her Saturday night in Detroit at the Magic Stick. She's got one of the best voices I've heard in a long time and she knows how to use it. Very impressed!

Oy, vey. According to The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. (2000), the word is spelled c-h-a-c-h-k-a, t-c-h-o-t-c-h-k-e or t-s-a-t-s-k-e.
