Why I wont go to the Feist concert.

Feist is playing the Brooklyn Bandshell in July, and even though I love both of her albums, I’m wont go see her.

It’s pretty much because of her videos.

 

She’s stiff, and not a good dancer, and the visual presentation doesn’t complement the songs, or at least their feel.

 

Maybe it’s just that she’s a bad dancer and I’m extrapolating unfairly from that alone. And I even concede that her live stuff thats out there is eminently watchable. But, for me there was such an unpleasant disconnect between the way her songs felt when heard and when seen (videos), that however illogical, I’d like to preserve the former feeling without risking it anymore.
