I'm trying hard to not oversell the spectacle that I witnessed last night, but I'm having a hard time not calling it the greatest live show I've ever been to. I've seen so many great shows, but none had the energy and stamina displayed by Foals last night at the Deluxe here in Indianapolis. At the meet and greet at LUNA, Jack Bevan, the drummer, told me they had a good rest on their day off and expected to have great energy for this show, but what I witnessed was totally unexpected. This show was profound in so many ways, it is hard to describe. The frenetic pace and energy of the band was intoxicating and contagious; if you weren't moving it's because you are a soulless robot. Foals put on the show of a lifetime last night (in my not so humble opinion), I just feel incredibly honored that I was there to witness it. Big thanks to Craig Dodge Lile and all fine folks who had part in bringing MOKB Presents: Foals w/ Surfer Blood & Blondfire here and giving me one of the greatest nights of my life!

The Foals concert was incredible. Blondfire also a great opening act. I had the opportunity to meet Foals earlier that day. A real down to earth bunch of guys still willing to mingle with the fans. Found this band months ago. They will go far with their incredible sound. Don't miss them!

The Foals really put on a great, energetic show. I saw their acoustic set at LUNA Music a few hours before and was super stoked to see their full energy set. They really delivered. Yannis came through the crowd multiple times as well as crowd-surfed for a good bit.

They prepared a great setlist that kept everyone grooving. I was really impressed by their energy and libido for the whole performance! Awesome show!

Ah, Foals. I remember sitting at home watching the video to 'Hummer' and being impressed by the band almost immediately (not just because of the robot dancing), and in each album since I have not been disappointed. I've been to the 'Old National Centre' before, and it's such a wonderful building itself, with intricate and classic designs adorning every area, and I'm always pleased whenever I find that a band I want to see is playing there. I went with my wife, who only know a few songs by Foals, and was kind of on the fence about them to be honest, and I think she was actually more excited to see Surfer Blood (one of the support acts), solely for her love of the song 'Twin Peaks'.
We turned up a bit later than planned, and sadly missed the opening act, Blondfire. We were however lucky enough to be given a free CD of theres, which was greatly appreciated. Surfer Blood came on, opening with 'Twin Peaks', and we made our way into the main hall. Surfer Blood were very impressive overall, although the sound/accoustics didn't always seem to suit them throughout the entire show, but I think the lead singer (John Paul Pitts) sounded better live than on record. They played a few new songs, which have left me excited about the forthcoming album too.
A short wait later, and Foals came on. We were sitting now in the upgraded section by the tables. There was a big build up too, which made me slightly nervous for my wife's opinion on the show - I've seen bands play before with someone who didn't like them, and it really spoiled it for me, hence my trepidation. The sound and accoustics seemed to instantly suit Foals, each guitar interweaving sounding distinct enough to make out without sounding cluttered during the opener, 'Prelude', and it was clear to see that Foals are not a band that need a lot of studio magic to sound good- each bandmate being very accomplished. The band seemed to enjoy themselves too, with little bits of showmanship shining through, which just adds a little bit to any concert really, playing the majority of their singles, and moving between the more upbeat songs (Balloons) to quieter, building and brooding songs (Spanish Sahara) effortlessly. I had a fantastic time, and so did my wife too- Foals have been playing in her car since that night.

Foals was amazing. Their music was already fast and technically made but when they played live they pulled a otis redding at woodstock and double time their speed. I felt like they sounded just like their cd but better because all the music just hit so hard and heavy. I was amazed that the band has such small member count for the type of music that they produce.

I was really excited for this show as their most recent album is great. However, i thought the sound wasn't great. Vocals were light, and just goes to show how produced the record is. Plus the setlist wasn't that great. Was hoping for several songs that they didn't play. They seemed to focus on songs that were from the first record and probably easier to play live. Being a band that's so intricate in their sensibilities, they should be able to construct a live set that lives up to the expectations. Will probably pass on seeing them the next time.

Foals are by far one of the best live bands touring right now. Everything they do feels so inspired and organic. Very tight playing from everyone in the band, especially the groovy solo riffs from Yannis.
