I saw Andrew Bird at the Crystal Ballroom on May 4th. Very impressive. He played reworked but recognizable interpretations of his songs using looped violin to fill out the sound and drive the rhythm. Here is a video from the concert of Bird performing "Why?" The crowd attempts to clap along to the lilting rhythm and it just doesn't work. He gets it the second time around. Notice the spinning double gramophone thing in the background. Very cool.
