Andrew Bird

[Connemara]

He's touring this summer and fall (June, August, and Oct.). I've really gotten into his music lately, I enjoy it. Good live show?

 

[toothsomesound]

yes, great live show, go. who's supporting?

 

[brlfvr]

Very good. He's really a talent.

 

[gauche.story]

His Pitchfork TV performances are amazing. I saw him open for Ani DiFranco a long time ago.

Great style too.

Free show in Brooklyn June 10, anyone else going?

 

[Joffrey]

Not coming anywhere near me.

 

[SD1]

Not surprising- no Florida shows.

 

[Michigan Planner]

He's great live but he's definitely an artist who doesn't translate well to large venues IMO. He's somebody you really have to see working to appreciate the performance. The closer you can be to the stage, the better... that way you have a good view of all his footwork on the pedals when he's looping certain violin stanzas or his whistling.

Very talented. Masterfade is a song that'll always be an important to me. "when you look up at the sky, all you see are zeroes and ones." I must have made five different girlfriends a CD with that song on it. I dont think any of them quite appreciated it as much as me though.

Yes, a good show. Like anyone, he interacts some shows more than others. Don't know how he would be in a very large venue. I think almost all musicians lose something the bigger the show gets.
