Little Feat

A truly great Little Feat show, outdoors at a beautiful outdoor venue (The Tree House Brewing Company). With the General Admission structure, my Lady and I were able to stand within ten feet of the stage, in a sea of happy, dancing, Little Feat fellow fanatics and soak in an awesome exhibition of Little Feat's genius-level musical virtuosity. The Band rocked and jammed through a long set that hit on almost all of my favorite Little Feat sings. The audience danced, sang, cheered, whistled, and generally rocked out to some of the best music from perhaps the most talented group of musicians ever to grace a stage. I feel privileged to witness such virtuosity live, especially since the average age of the current Little Feat lineup is mid-seventies. I've been a Little Feat fan since I "discovered' their music in 1975 in my freshman year of college, and the Band did themselves proud. They were every bit as good as any of the many shows I have been privileged to attend. I plan to catch as many Little Feat shows as I possibly can while this brilliant group of musicians is still touring, and according to Bill Payne, keyboardist extraordinaire, there is a new Little Feat due out next year. Meantime, I encourage any and all Feat Fans to check out Sam's Place, a new album of the best new music I've heard in years. I thought it was a new Little Feat album when I first heard it on Spotify, but now I suspect it is a Sam Clayton work. Sam Clayton is a long-time member of Little Feat who is a renowned percussionist and blues musician. The album was the best new blues music I've heard in forever.

The venue was amazing although we went to Homestead first by mistake. Meet & greet was a little disappointing. A swag bag with an autographed poster. Could have tossed in a can couzie & some stickers. The VIP tickers were really expensive! The guys were there long enough to take a picture with each person & then bolted. I was lucky enough to get Billy & Fred to autograph my copy of Sam's Place before they got out. Was really hoping to get a picture with Kenny. As a drummer, he is my hero bass player. He & Richie were the best rhythm section ever. Kenny still plays with youthful enthusiasm. The seats were amazing. The band was killer as always! They played "The Fan." I've never heard them do that. Also pulled out, "Easy to Slip." Killer show! Looking forward to seeing them in October in Wheeling, WV! I understand that they are playing a lot of shows & do the meet & greets each night. I'm sure it gets old. lol There were all there with the exception of Sam.

They have a new lead man named Scott sharrad he sang for the Greg Allman band they where outstanding if your a little feet fan get tickets immediately tedesche trucks was fantastic met them at after party with dumpstaphunk at the hard rock in Atlantic City one if the best shows I've ever seen and I've been going to shows for fifty years

The beginning of the show, it was like it was too loud? or overdriven on the speakers. All the tracks were bleeding over into each other. It was hard to make out any harmonies, let alone words to the songs. It sounded terrible. Further into the show, it seems it got fixed a little. It wasn't a good mix, but it was ok. The band themselves were awesome. The theater had issues.

for me the issue with posting a great review, is that it may result in being harder to get good tickets next time a band comes to town; On the other hand these folks are so good & fun in concert that it is better to just let everyone know what this band is all about - they just need to be Experienced. If you want great musicians & songs & want to be energized – these folks will fill the bill As an additional benefit – this band & music has deep & strong roots / so if that is of interest to you – also an unique opportunity. See them any time & any place you can (we do)

(Little Feat played both the Sailin’ Shoes and Dixie Chicken albums in their entirety Monday night due to being forced to cancel the Sunday night show due to an apparent personnel emergency of the venue staff. ) As great as the Little Feat catalogue of songs is, they are and always have been, at their core, a live band. The musicianship continues to be dazzling, but it’s the joy of playing and the enthusiasm they have for playing live that is their calling card. Nothing more to say, except that it was a great show and a fantastic way to end this summer’s The Albums Tour. It was hot, start to finish.

The experience of watching Little Feat perform at the GSR was nothing short of perfection. The combination of this incredible band and the venue's acoustics created a magical atmosphere. It's been a long time coming for me to have the opportunity to see them live, and I couldn't have asked for a better moment. Little Feat's music is timeless, and it never fails to bring enjoyment to those who listen. I decided to invite a friend who wasn't familiar with the band, and they were pleasantly surprised by the outstanding performance. I would undoubtedly give the entire experience a well-deserved 5-star rating, both for the band's talent and the unforgettable playlist they delivered. Overall, it was an exceptional evening filled with fantastic music and cherished memories. Little Feat truly knows how to create an unforgettable live performance, and I feel grateful to have been part of the audience that night.

I love this band and so glad I was able to finally see them live! Been to a lot of concerts and easily one of the best I’ve ever seen! Had a meet n greet before the show and the guys could not have been more down to earth! If you haven’t seen them live I highly recommend it because Little Feat is alive and well!

Artist - opening act was pretty pedestrian musically but nevertheless entertaining warm up and thankfully brief. Their return with Little Feat to do Willin was welcome; however, the addition of the Muddy Waters' cover of Mo Jo Workin was a desperate bar band move that should have been canned -- these guys are Little Feat for God's sake - they have their own classic groove. Little Feat was as good as they could possibly be - incredibly adept at reproducing the classics and adding intricate jams to the same. Billy Payne has not lost a lick of his chops and added more. The replacement drummer and lead guitarist were as professional as a band could ever hope for. While it took three vocalists to sing the inimitable songs of Lowell George they did it very well - especially the vocals of the lead guitarist. Truly enjoyed the show. Venue - Sandler Center is intimate and warm. Security were overkill in terms of chiding people who captured video of the show - that is an impossible thing to undertake and was just a ridiculous distraction akin to Keystone Cops!

Saturday’s concert was awesome. The band was spot on and smoking hot. My third time seeing the Waiting for Columbus tour and this was the best of the best. If you didn’t see it live, it’s still on Mandolin for a bit. I was at the venue but bought and recorded the show, thats how good it was.

I have seen the Feat over 80 times, from the Lowell era, to the various re-incarnations, and three times on this tour. The show was amazing and the band is tighter then ever. The joy that they have for being on stage is so very evident and Scott Sharrod and Tony Leone are amazing additions to the band. If you are one of those who thought Little Feat should have ended when Lowell George died, then you have not seen Scott play and sing. His slide work is incredible and Tony is as close to Richie that you can get. Can't wait to see what the future entails!

My wife and I have listened to Waiting For Columbus for years. Very excited to see Little Feat and hear the music live! We had GREAT seats in the second row. Concert was amazing! Newer players fit in well with the originals. Sound was great. First time to the Clyde Theatre. Very nice. Easy parking. The only knock is that you sit on smaller folding chairs and you are shoulder to shoulder with your neighbor. I am an average size guy and a larger guy sat next to me and we were both cramped. More room please! Concert was great!

I've seen every Little FEAT concert to come to Arizona for the past 30+ years and I'll have to say this one didn't disappoint. I miss Paul Barrier and Richie Hayward but Scott Sharard would have made Paul and Lowell proud. His slide guitar licks are spot on and excellent. While he didn't have Lowell's deep voice that we all identify with some of his signature tunes, he did a great job.. There are still many cities on their Waiting for Columbus tour including Tucson on December 7th. You're missing out on an awesome show if you miss this tour.

Absolutely FANTASTIC Show with Hot Tuna & Little Feat. BEYOND my wildest hopes & dreams! EVERY song & musician rocked the night. The graphics & sound & lights @ The Fox Theater were top notch. Crowd was enthusiastic! Hope they will tour Northern California again SOON. Have great videos & photos. No idea how to share. Contact me @ medleymusic25@gmail.com if you want to see any. Wonderful evening & balcony view was great! Kathleen

“I’m so glad my feats didn’t fail me in bringing me out of SC to GA on a Tuesday evening. It wasn’t an August 1977 in London but it was an April in Augusta, and if you closed your eyes and just listened you could swear it was forty-five years ago at the recording of the ‘Waiting For Columbus’ double live album. Whatever combo of genre’s you place Little Feat, rock, country, R&B, jazz, blues, fusion, jam, they brought it all in one two hour package. Deep into the Spring leg of their tour Little Feat was one fine tuned machine featuring a nine-piece band including horns led by 73 year old founding member Bill Payne and two longstanding members from 1972 his dual copilots. Then there was the 11 minute version of the four minute Dixie Chicken, ‘If you’ll be my Dixie Chicken, I’ll be your Tennessee Lamb’, amazing! There were actually a number of extended jams throughout the evening as they wove through the entirety of album sides one, two, three, four producing a two hour showtime from an hour and eighteen minute record spin. Scott Sharrard’s (2019 to present) guitar work and vocals were right on for ‘Day Or Night’ and ‘Mercenary Territory’ in tandem. Comp seats 9th row center definitely contributed to a great mix of an audio and visual experience. The video graphics were A#1, sometimes psychedelic, sometimes humorous, sometimes historical. I had heard that at a previous performance the volume had been way too loud and the mix muddy, but that was the case at all this evening credit to the the Miller Theater. Of note it was the first time I saw two bands in 5 days that feature chicken songs, the other being Zac Brown’s ‘Chicken Fried’. Oh and I had to purchase the tour shirt with the tomato in the hammock, a timeless and iconic image and undoubtedly there were a couple ‘Weed Whites Wine’ shirts seen amongst the fans. Amy Helm, daughter of Levon opened, admittedly one of the most solid openers I’ve seen in quite a while!” by DAve (Concert #641)

I have been listening to the album for 40+ years. I do not move as well as I did decades ago, and neither do these guys. However, they are all such pros that it was a 5 star show for me. Whenever one can se a living rock legend( Bill Payne) it is a great idea to take advantage. I don’t want to short opening act Amy Helm. Another tight band, true pro. If you like Feat and The Dead, give her a listen.

This is just what the Dr. Ordered! The band was so tight and man the riffs we're non stop. It was so much needed to be a large venue and have everyone up and dancing the entire show. And Hot Tuna was beautiful! Thanks to all the band members and crew and staff for a flawless performance and a night I will never forget!? ♥️✌️♥️🍄🎶

I have been a fan of this band since 1974. I have seen it in all of its iterations on multiple occasions (whenever I get the chance, to be honest), so I am a little prejudiced. The current line-up really excites me. I heard and saw some stuff tonight that made me sit up. "Mellow Down Easy" was one of the highlights for me, although Tony's version of "Old Folks Boogie" also surprised me. Fred's "Honest Man" was a great change of pace, and Scott's version of "Perfect Imperfection" was spot on. The quality of musicianship is as good as it has ever been, Scott and Tony add two very strong voices that will open opportunities to play songs long set aside on the shelf, and everyone is saying they are writing new material. We have been talking about the band being on the cusp of wider recognition for quite some time ... and maybe that no longer is a primary goal ... but with new bands repeatedly choosing to cover Little Feat songs, and with new faces and ideas in the band itself (though still clearly honoring what the band is), I think some long overdue recognition is on its way. Everyone should check them out.

played over 2 hrs of there best tunes the extended songs were very well done of my 5 requests the band played 4 sailing shoes 👠 was missed but they rocked the house new bandmates fit like a glove too bad no horn section but covid i bet played a roll in that will always miss LOWELL GEORGE & PAUL BARRE both R I P Little Feat played a fantastic show
