Brandi Carlile - Dying Day (a new song)

@ House of Blues, LA, CA. 09.12.07

Sorry about the quality, was using a camera phone. I almost went in with my camera, but they were doing body searches.

This song Brandi was like "we're gonna do an acoustic set for you" or something like and went out to the edge of the platform. This exactly reminds me of when I went to see Coldplay @ the Forum last year in Feb and they did this acoustic set also near the edge of the stage. In their case they were still hooked up, as oppose to Brandi, she went all out no mikes, which is why the sound on this clip is somewhat low.

Nonetheless, enjoy!

And the other thing about cameras and security. This venue, the House of Blues in WeHo, is small compared to like, Staples center, which is a bigger venue. When I was there to see Coldplay, there was no body searches or anything. I felt a little gypped that in such a big venue there was practically no security at all, and at the HoB, it was like frickin' "search for bin laden day!"

Sorry, I meant to say the Forum, and not Staples Center. They're about the same size.

Not bad for a camera phone! Geez, I didn't even attempt to use mine that way..house of blues seemed so strict, I barely took but two still photos. I was in about the fourth row, center, in front of brandi, and was in complete awe of how she commanded everyone to silence when she did this song unplugged, feet hanging off the edge of the stage. Amazing lady!

Yeah, that night was so awesome. I think I'm getting withdrawal symptoms. I just want to remember that night forever. And what bugs me the most was that I couldn't bring in my REAL camera, instead of using my camera phone.

yeah this show was incredible, i've seen her 6 times and this was her best show out of all those. yeah i'm a dork, I know :) definitely the tightest security around. but the crowd was great, and so were brandi and the boys!

You just cracked me up on that "search for bin..." reply. I know , I know, I'm experiencing the agony of Brandi withdrawl also. Re-watching on you tube just doesn't cut it....I mean, I'm grateful this exists but c'mon...Brandi live...it's just soooo darn electric. That was my first Brandi show and probably the last time I will see her up soo close in such a small room! Why oh why no cameras for memories?
