The band played a funky version of Lewis' solo tune 'Rise Up With Fists'. Introducing the track Lewis said: "This is a cover song..." Guitarist and vocalist Blake Sennett told the crowd: "This is only the fourth gig we've played in two years. You're the best crowd so far." Later Lewis said: "The first three (shows) were turds." The four piece were augmented by two extra members who played keyboards, trumpet, guitar and trumpet. They were introduced as Orinda and Kristen. Playing a number of songs from new album 'Under The Blacklight' including a bluegrass version of the title track, Rilo Kiley introduced '15' by saying: "How many 15 year olds are there here tonight? No one? Ok...". Before 'Dejalo' Lewis said: "Does anyone speak Spanish? I don't." Prior to 'Smoke Detector' the singer said: "This song was inspired by a dance. I'm not a very good dancer but I'm happy to demonstrate." Before first encore Lewis was joined by Orinda and Kristen for a version of 'Give A Little Love' by saying : "We've never done this before, so don't kill us if we mess it up." She told this audience: "I wrote that song for Blake- he knows..." Sennett and guitarist Pierre De Reeder played ukulele and mandolin for a version of 'Ripchord'. Ryan Adams cancels Stonehenge gig Ryan Adams' appearance at Stonehenge has been called off. The singer was due to play the historic site as part of the Salisbury International Arts Festival on June 5, but organisers have now axed the date. It was feared that non-ticket holders might try to watch the show from the nearby road, forcing English Heritage to change the venue for public safety reasons. However, a suitable alternative site cannot be found, and Adams is no longer taking part in the festival. "We are very sorry that Ryan Adams will not be able to perform at Stonehenge, but the demand for tickets was both unprecedented and unforeseen, and we have to put public safety first," explained Stonehenge director Peter Carson. He added: "We have worked with Salisbury International Arts Festival to try and identify a suitable alternative, and have offered to make available another English Heritage site, but we appreciate that it would be hard to find an appropriate substitute for such a unique venue." Tickets for the event had not been put on sale. Adams, meanwhile, is due to release new album 'Easy Tiger' on June 25. |
