Keane - Crystal Ball - Live in Oakland

Keane - Crystal Ball - Oakland, Live Tue. 7-20-10, Fox Theater, 1st row, HD. They always end the show with this song, so I'm not sure why the guy next to me kept calling for it.. :P

The 2 opening acts were Fran Healy from Travis, and Ingrid Michaelson. I caught Ingrid's setlist at the end when it was thrown out into the crowd. Healy had a funny story about how he stole a chord from Radiohead and Michaelson also had a funny discussion about her popping out of her dress every time she bent down during her set.

Standing in front of me were twin Canadian girls who have been to 12 Keane shows each. They arrived from Vancouver to stand in line at 8am so they could get front row center for the 7pm show. I was right behind them and I got there at 6pm. :P

One of the girls was wearing sunglasses throughout much of the show. At the time, I thought was ridiculous, but for many songs, bright white lights were flashed into the front rows to the point where you had to close your eyes.
