Training season has begun and Leslie is running lamps around her amps, getting ready for this announcement.
Feist will be playing two shows as part of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics celebration in British Columbia. O Canada.
In skiing circles (moguls?), Whistler/Blackcomb is considered one of
the World's top ski resorts. No wonder that it is the host venue for
several 2010 Olympic and Paralympics events. A brand new venue has been
built in Whistler Village, a building called the Whistler Celebration
Plaza, and Feist will be performing a FREE, all ages show on Februrary
16th. This show will be outdoors, so look for an Olympics-sized stage
heater or Feist's head atop a big puffy coat.
On February 17th, a day known to some as Alberta Day, Feist will be
playing The Orpheum. Years ago, some time in Calgary and in the year
1988, thousands of kids were running around a field making beautiful
shapes, like crop circles but Olympic, for the vantage of cameras
above. Little Leslie Allison Feist was one of those runners, and if you
see the photo attached, you might catch just a glimpse of the 1234
video to come years later.
But the good news is that you don't have to practice for months and
months like Leslie did, or jump through six coloured hoops, to see
Feist at the Olympics. You just have to keep reading.
