Frank Fairfield with Blind Boy Paxton at the Redwood Bar, 10/19/09

A shtick so seamless
That we all became part of
1928.

The Fleet Foxes with Frank Fairfield at the El Rey, 9/22/08

Frank Fairfield

God bless a crowd that
Gives ample love to an ol'
Delta escapee

Fleet Foxes

A comedy hour
Of sorts, paired with harmonies
To moisten the eyes.*


*Note: "Eyes" because "panties" was too many syllables.

The Fleet Foxes with The Duchess and the Duke and Frankie Fairfield at the Echo, 6/28/08

Frankie Fairfield

So authentic that
We swore he was as blind as
Lemon Jefferson

The Duchess and the Duke

Liam Gallagher
And happy couple jangled
With harmonies rich.

Fleet Foxes

Barbershop quartet
From a woodsy thicket like
Crosby, Stills and Nash!
