Always enjoyable! 50 years and still going strong. Iroquois amphitheater is a nice venue.
The sound quality was not good. Very loud but I couldn't hear the vocals very well. I have been to the venue several times and haven't noticed this before. The performance wasn't the problem. Feat did an exemplary job and I liked the way they stretched out several songs. Hopefully I will get to see them again soon.
Little Feat rocked it out. These guys know how to jam. The great songs I remember were just a small part of the night. With all the instruments they had it was like a rock orchestra. Percussion never sounded better than this. Hard to put in the right words to describe how good this concert was. Perfect venue to hear this Band. I don't know who had more fun, them or us. Loved every second of it. They burned the house down. For anyone that has the chance to see Little Feat, they should definitely go see them. Excellent show and even better music. Did I say music? I meant rock and roll Royalty. A real treat I had the honor to be a part of.
The Concert was great. The venue was great. The sound was too loud. We couldn’t make out any of the lyrics which was very disappointing. It was a shame because Little Feet put on a great show and they have great lyrics.
I spent 15 years as an audio engineer for Clair Brothers Audio now known as Clair Global. My last 5 years were with Bob Dylan. Anyway, Little Feat did nor disappoint - the audio system did, My brother who is a full time local musician and I left the show about 7 songs into Feat. We were seated in the center section just below the mix position. I believe we were hearing the same material as the sound mixer - and I don't really put it on him but the system was not clear, almost distorted. It sounded to me like the system could not deliver the required volume and was simply being pushed too hard. Not really knowing all the facts I'm wondering if hanging another array about half or 2/3 back from the existing speakers would help. The existing audio system seems inadequate for crystal clear reproduction at the volume engineers require, The venue is really a great place to SEE a show. Thanks - I'm pretty sure other sound guys would feel similarly.
Unable to attend broke leg night before Purchased insurance unable to submit claim.
Little Feat played a free live show at my college in ‘76 or ‘77. They had that New Orleans funk groove going on then. Now they are just a jam band. Start a song for two minutes, jam for 15 minutes on an unrecognizable progression then make a rough transition back to the song for 30 seconds. Add to that the mix was blaring. It was like a wall of sound where everything was set to 8 and the sound guy left the room. NO DYNAMIC QUALITY AL ALL. I’m not sure if that was the venue’s fault or the band, but I have seen others theee that sounded good.
The two stars was for the night and warm up band Leftover Salmon. As a band Leftover was a 3.5-4 star. Little Feat was terrible! I don't know if it was the extremely poor sound system or the possible poor sound checks but the band sounded awful! People come to hear Little Feat and the songs from their most popular album "Waiting for Columbus"When they played those songs it was well into the song's refrain or hook before you even realized what song it was. Maybe it's the fact that now they are just a tribute band, with only a couple original members. When the lead singer took off his guitar about 30 minutes into their show and walked out the side stage exit door we took it as our cue and left too. Enjoyed seeing Leftover Salmon but their sound was not crisp and clear, so I assume the sound system as Iroquois Amp Theatre needs some much updating.
Enjoyed a great show in a great facility! The Iroquois Amphitheater is fabulous. Little Feat provided a great show even though a couple of my favorite songs didn't make the play list.
Great venue. Vocals not as good as I remember. Fun time
Saw the “Waiting For Columbus” tour in both Columbus and Cincinnati. As a Feat fan since the early 70’s, I didn’t know quite what to expect. Was I pleasantly surprised! I don’t know if they could have found a better person to “Join The Band” than Scott Sherrard. He brought an energy to the band that I haven’t experienced in years. The band was as tight as ever and the horns were the icing on the cake. Both of the shows we attended ranked as two of the best shows I’ve seen in years, and I’ve seen a boatload. Superior musicians, groundbreaking songwriting that has stood the test of time and a style that has influenced bands for decades. This new Feat lineup is amazing and yet it stays true to the sound and groove of the original lineup. These Feat won’t fail you, guaranteed.
Happy to see the remnants of the Feat doing Waiting for Columbus. A favorite band and album. Only saw the original line up in tact at Northern Kentucky University prior to to George passing in mid-seventies. Seen them many times since with adjusted line ups. As much as I love em, I think they looked a little tired (long tour). Not a knock, hell I'm tired too at my age. Still, just felt like it was old friends gettin together which is just what I hoped for. The special effects, while not cutting edge were just right. Oddly, the sound was a bit muddled (not horribly so) which is unusual at the Taft.
My wife asked me to get Little Feat tickets for her Birthday present. We had a great time at a great concert. UPAC is a great venue and we really enjoyed the band. We were blown away by the energy and precision of the band and its arrangements. Everything was great, original members, Midnight Ramble musicians and the stage as well. May well have been the best concert we've ever been to. We can't wait to see them again.
Bill still has it after 50 years and the band was in great form. Amazingly I had never seen them before so when I knew they were coming to Count Basie theatre in Red Bank, I wasn't going to let this show get away (even though we had just spent the entire weekend at the Asbury Park Sea Hear Now fest :) Anyway, Waiting for Columbus was one of my favorite albums and they performed all of those songs - but also left plenty of room for solos, jams, etc. from all of the fantastic band members. Had the crowd on their feet for many songs and really brought it. Even my wife (who really wasn't up for another night seeing a show - and really didn't know Little Feat) was totally impressed. Sooo glad I went to see them.
Great music and wonderful musicians! Transported me back to my college years.
They rocked it. 2 hours of solid high energy music. Happy we went
The band still cranks out that high energy. Moore theater was pretty intimate and I was on lower level. Had great time but after the show, walking to car heard a lot of people on upper level hated the sound system up there.
Where do you even begin-vip sound stage package was really nice! Show was nonstop & just incredible! Love Little Feat & hope to see them again soon!
I sat in the second balcony and it’s a throwback to old days when segregation was a thing. Apparently this part of the theater was BIPOC seating originally and it still has a separate staircase that is a lot like going up a bell tower! It’s worth the climb though; just make sure you have your refreshments before you head up! Little Feat was very good: everything I expected and hoped for! The sound was very good and the band was into the show. I really like that they gave the audience what we came for. I would recommend this show to anyone down the road. Live Nation and STG run a chill atmosphere and I especially liked that I could take a break outside at halftime without any hassles; just scan your ticket out and back in. Thanks for a superb evening to the band, Live Nation, and Seattle Theater Group.
The sound on the first balcony of the Moore Theater in Seattles was awful! So painfully loud! Also Little Feat needs an artistic director to stand back in the audience and hear them. Too much going on all at once most of the time. You can barely make out some of their greatest music due to the cacophony of competing instruments all at the same volume and completely drowning out the vocals. The originals had some superb breaks that gave the music its drive.
