tUnE-yArDs concert at the West End Cultural Centre. Whoa. Talented. One of my favourite shows to date (Lenny Kravitz's being the other). I especially loved the intimate venue and down-to-earth performances. She even incorporated the audience's cheering into her looping.
A couple of unexpected highlights:
- A guy yelling to his friend, "How does it sound so GOOD?" in the middle of a simple, one stick drum intro, which made everyone laugh including Merrill Garbus.
- The Winnipeg Whollop, which is the name she gave the encore cheering followed by synchronized stomping that gradually picked up speed until the band came out for one more song.
