I saw Lisa Hannigan last night! For the first time ever in my concert-going history, there were chairs and no crowds. I walked in two minutes before she got on stage. It was lovely.

I’m going to see her on March 1st and can’t wait!
A note to East Coast readers–her eastern tour mates the Low Anthem are utterly fantastic, too. Thanks for the heads up on the tour, Chelsea! 🙂
Wow… I can’t imagine seeing her live and not having a packed room! That’s a shame!

Thanks for the heads up, Amelia! I am checking out their music now!
Let me know what you think,Jane. The only song I didn’t like was a rendition of The Lady is a Tramp. she had 4 guys playing with her and a few times they weren’t all melding very well together.But overall, I loved it and thought her voice was just wonderful live!
Cheni- I know I thought it would be full! But, selfishly.. I loved not having to push my way through hundreds of sweaty drunk people:)And I loved that I didn’t get their early and still had a fantstic view!
Yeah, I was at the show last night and Lisa was wonderful and SO sweet when she was signing autographs after the show. Oh, and I loved her cover of The Lady is a Tramp plus the Iron & Wine cover she closed with was amazing. Lastly, I find it extremely odd that you’ve never been to a show with seats before … but maybe I’m thinking more about places that already have seats like The Aladdin. Glad you liked the show and too bad you missed her opening act – Gavin Glass – who played guitar in her band. He was really great, too.
Hi JK-
I am sorry I missed the opening act too! I may be exaggerating a bit but most of the shows I go to require me to stand unless I get there super early (plus I love being up close so balconies are usually not an option for me). Been to the Alladin a few times and yes you are right they do have chairs. Yes I agree the Iron & Wine cover was delectable.
I am so jealous! Was it amazing
you forget our concert seeing priscilla ahn! remember that there were only 30 of us? good times.
I love Lisa, although I have to admit I don’t know too much of her solo work, but I adore all the work she’s done with Damien Rice. One of my favourite songs of all time is Your Ghost. Sigh, so pretty!
You are so right Nicole I totally forgot! I loved that show.
MsUnreliable- check out her solo work you’ll love it!
Oh i am very very sour right now. I just bought her album and it’s been delightful company through late nights.
ah gutted! i was just introduced to her by mrs french from bliss and have been in love with her I don’t know song! Awww! Hope Ms Hannigan returns to PDX soon!
For anyone who actually reads this in time and missed Lisa here this week, she’s on the Tonight Show tonight … as in Wednesday. Just so you know —
I’m obsessed with her album – loved her with Damien Rice but I’m glad she went off on her own! I’d love to see her live!
completely kills me that I didn’t go…so happy for you though! xo t
