AFP rules!

[chloenoire]

Oh my God that was amazing, when she started conducting. So much love for this woman.

[doriankilledsibyl]

I remember the opening of this song - didn't she also yell at a girl and tell a story about Tori Amos freaking out on a girl at a concert? So much energy - what a great show!

[lovesick5000]

HA hahahaha! excellent! I LOVE AFP!!!!

[NWRivergirl]

I would love to hear more of her work fully orchestrated! The strings are lovely

[ifihavetoiguess]

awesome every time I watch it! Bravo!

[Lilypai]

beautiful

[amberdawnstirlingace]

The classical song is the beginning of Sonata Pathetique by Beethoven. I know because I can play it - badly! Amaaaaazing version of an amazing song!

[Hawkeyes711]

Why are you watching this if you don't like her singing? Why would you listen to her more than once?!

[kvngo]

That was awesome!

[icedawg3352]

i love the song but what song is that at the begining that she is playing? i know its some classical song.

[TWIB627]

Ah, this is really amazing! I just wish I'd been into Dresden Dolls earlier, having only discovered them two or three weeks ago...

After seeing this, I'm REALLY kicking myself for not going to this show. I'm an ass. And to think Brian split up the band with a message on You Tube - what a shame.

[krisnicc]

they didn't split up, she talked about it at her show like 4 days ago that they are getting along much better now, and that they are planning a small tour for the new year so look out for it. :)

[Versailles1798]

Hi. I was just wondering what you meant by this. I have not heard of this youtube video. I just assumed Brian and Amanda naturally went their separate ways. Is it still on YT?

[Markeroni]

i was there front row that night. IT WAS AMAZING...SHE WAS AMAZING....

[djaywalker]

awesome!!! love it! ;)

[iriseclipsed]

Your parents must be so proud. :'-)

[suckerpunch728]

lol she's funny. XD

that would've been so fun to be there!

[caoimhin92]

that was amazing. like..i've never seen this song played better. that should be on a dvd or something.

[Leishu]

Excellent video. I truly wish I could have been there. (I also wish I had a studio quality recording of this artist combination. Wow!)

[XshattereddreeamsX]

ahahahaha

amanda: wtf?! xD

[XshattereddreeamsX]

DO IT! DO IT!

lmao

[ColinMeloy91]

DUDE! THAT was sooooooooo fucking funny! I loved it.

[ColinMeloy91]

OMG Holy shit I live right near there why the hell didn't i know about this *sobs* =(

[loyalgirl1]

wow i wish i could have gone

[SMAAMB]

damn amanda looks great in that corset dress.

[Starmongoose1991]

The show looked so amazing.

Is it just me or does the size of the hall take some of the closeness away from seeing amanda play?

[Tibbon]

Not at all. I've seen amanda from 2 feet away and also seen her in larger halls. I was on the first balcony, and the hall size is perfect in there. Honestly, there's no better venue for her. It was an amazing show.

[JaredTLord]

i ended up getting to see both nights. the shows were so incredible. and the after show with the luminescent orchestrii was equally as amazing.

[Sarix35]

her face totally whacked the mic when he shook her. oh that keith!

[heiwalove]

hahaha. amazing. i adore her. wish so much i could've seen these concerts.

[theheadcounters]

i was there the next night... it was an amazing, mindblowing show =D

During that false intro, somebody's phone rang and she stopped, and was like "you know what? i'll just start over."

[PiccolaLosha]

Wish I had been there... Thank you so much for posting this, I love it!
