Pretty obvious setlist, but still one of my favorite Features shows I've ever seen. It just gave me chills to see my little band grow up. A pretty packed house in New York, and everyone was very into it including the suits that were there and the boys themselves. I've never seen the band as a whole so exciting on stage. Roger is a new man. My internet time is limited, so more later. Woohoo.
I TOTALLY AGREE!


Keith, you are destined to rock. Never forget this.

I really think I am going to cry, and I am not a soft man. I didn't get the memo. next time somebody call me and tell me, or come knock on my door and take me there. . .

I was there... the place was packed and they were AWESOME. They played really energetically and they were so much fun to watch. Great show. The crowd seemed to really like them too. Except I think there were a few hecklers. All in all, fantastic performance.

Sorry Mr. Stacks, but I'm back home now. As for the "hecklers," that was just one of the label dudes giving the band some light-hearted shit, but I'm not sure the band was aware of that until the show was over. Pelham handled it like a champ though:

Label guy: why don't you guys play a good song?
MP: Ok, we'll try
Features: blast into Me and the Skirts without hesitation.

Again, great show that is continuing to test my cynical ways. I am really starting to get optimistic about the features, and I'm not optimistic about anything.
I TOTALLY AGREE!
