Jenny Lewis' instruments look indeed very happy.

So Rilo Kiley played at the Lido yesterday. I haven't been there before, but i love the place now.
It has the perfect size for a band like Rilo Kiley. 

Things I wanted to tell you about the show (other than that it was awesome!):

- Did you notice her outfit? It's adorable!

- Before they started playing 15, Jenny Lewis asked if anyone in the audience was fifteen. One of the very excited first-row-fan-girls standing in front of me screamed "I can be if you want me too!", which Jenny repeated into the microphone. The girl who had screamed this was maybe 16 or 17, and jumping up and down at this point. Cute.

- The new album Under the Blacklight will not come out here until october. So when the played the first song out of it, they recommended downloading it off the net for free.

- The only thing that was a little disappointing: They did not play Papillon or The Frug.


- Thanks to the "burst mode" of my crappy camera i took a ton of pictures (211 to be exact). 

So here are some of them:
