Santogold's Goldrush Tour @ Irving Plaza, NYC - pics
Photos by Kyle Dean Reinford
Santogold and the Goldrush tour hit the Fillmore at Irving Plaza in NYC last night (Sept 19, 2008). The place filled up through out the night, ending with a 45 minute (or so) set by Santi to a sold out crowd, (that included Jay-Z and Beyonce). She didn't play "I'm a Lady," but pretty much played the rest of the album and tracks off her Top Ranking mixtape including a song that samples Animal Collective's "Comfy in Nautica"...
"She played a few songs off the mixtape, asking the crowd if they were familiar with it. It didn't seem like a 45 minute set. Plus she only has one album and like 3 or 4 songs on Top Ranking. My only complaint was that there wasn't a full band backing her because I was under the impression that there would be. Other than that it was pretty fun. Her dancers are awesome and she sounded great." [Anonymous]Low vs. Diamond, Plastic Little and Trouble Andrew opened up the marathon of a night. More photos from the whole night, and Santogold's setlist, below...

let's hear the new song!

That song is not new. It was on the Top Ranking mixtape that came out a couple of months ago and it samples "Comfy in Nautica" not "Bros." She played a few songs off the mixtape, asking the crowd if they were familiar with it. It didn't seem like a 45 minute set. Plus she only has one album and like 3 or 4 songs on Top Ranking. My only complaint was that there wasn't a full band backing her because I was under the impression that there would be. Other than that it was pretty fun. Her dancers are awesome and she sounded great.

such a fun show, despite an hour long set up for a 45 minute set.

I liked Santogold a lot, but hate all the opening shit you have to go through in order to see her. Then she only plays for a short time which is laim.
cut out all them hype the crowd dj's that all dull for the most part and just do a shorter show without them invovled.

obviously her short would be set, but I think the complaint is more that we had to wait staring at projected images for an hour while they set up a laptop before she even came on.
the set up for her was longer than her actual set.

She looks like Kool Moe Dee! Not a good look but I guess you have to disguise the age and ugliness somehow. Please can't her 15 minutes be up already. NEXT!

great photos--I especially like the large b/w one of the singer from Trouble Andrew with his fist in the air.

I agree. It was annoying having to wait. Standing up for 5 hours straight was very annoying. But it was still fun :]
