Thank you Leslie & Co
Fantastic show. If you've never been, you really have to see a Feist show to appreciate it. I saw her a few days before at the Metro Centre (Halifax) and although the Halifax show was great the small venue was amazing. The emotion of the band's long run being over was really moving. Hopefully they are back out there soon.
This is a review from a person who never got to see the show but is listening to it right now :) It is a great show and full of the talent and energy each performance a Feist show exhibits!
I live in the USA and have really grown to love Feist's music and voice since I saw her (on TV) about 2 or 3 years ago. Every performance/release I've bought, "found", or seen has been outstanding and I hope the day comes in the near future where she's playing the Dallas/Fort Worth area again.
Anyhow...for those of you who also could not be in the UK for this show, or for those who may have been there and would like a memory of the night, check out this link to download/hear an audience recording of the show:

I hope Feist and her band don't mind the live recordings people make (not for sale, just for fans and for free). These "bootlegs" are what keep an artist alive and in our minds when there is such a strong desires for more from them after purchasing all available LPs, CDs, or whatever. I can just about guarantee people that if someone is looking for the "bootlegs" the band is not missing out on any money as a result of this endeavor. I bet each of you has bought every legitimate Feist release and will continue to do so. The bootlegs are just enough to hold us over until the next tour or release :)
What an inspiring voice and talented band Feist is made up of! And I'm a Journey and Led Zeppelin type of guy too. But it doesn't stop me from recognizing incredible talent and hoping for more to follow soon (i.e. Feist!!!)...

I went to see Bright Eyes, but Feist stole the show. I was amazed by her energy and enthusiasm even though I didn't know any of her music (except for the BeeGees cover). If I remember correctly, she had Conor Oberst come out and sing Mushaboom with her. I left the show with her cd and poster and have been a fan ever since. I can't wait to see her some time soon in Atlanta.
We want ... well I want more shows ... in the Montreal area or in Canada ... come on It was amazing
She had a injured ankle but played through the show like a champ. She is an amazing artist and sounds even better live- which is hard to believe. Will have to see her again sometime!
The sound system did not deliver her voice as clear as it could have been, but it was still a great concert. She has an electric stage presence that can win any crowd. I danced to all the songs and sang along. The girl's got soul.
The best concert of my life! Truly! It was really meaningful.
Thank you so much!
I would love to have you back. Every 2 years isn't it?
I can't wait! ;)
Please come quickly!
Thank you so much to enrich my life with your beautifull music...
I´ve been to cologne in 2007 and i am hoping you´ll make it over again really soon...

I can't believe there has not been a review of this before!!
For m it was amazing as i finshed work in Norwich (3hrs away in my car) and rushed down to London where I would hopefully meet a guy holding my ticket after buying it from ebay for a rather tidy sum, for him, but I had to see the band. Only 4 days earlier I had bought the album but loved it instantly.
It will also be remembered by many for the proposal that was in the show.
So at one point Feist says''this is the part I like to get to know the audience, does anyone play an instament''?
Three girls in the front row scream ''yes yes he does''
Up he comes and it turns out he is a student of music somewhere in London. I remember bright green trousers and some random top but Feist asks if he could play something.
He does and its very nice and we aplaude and all done.
But he asks can he ''read a poem he wrote this night''??
Oh no a tragic Londerer caught up in music and art I thought...
and to be honest the poem was pretty bad until he cut from his tone and finished the poem, which had led to a romantic end and, said ''name will you marry me''?..........
everyone was gobsmacked, and I had to hold back the welling tears!!
It turned out thhat it had all been planned before hand which only paid tribute to Feist who let that happen on HER show. How many other artists would do that. Her comment of ''I don't think I can top that was sweet''.
Theres loads more Ilove about it but excellent gig with great ideas and obvioulsy the music xxx
