Dying to see them live! How funny today I was just surfing youtube for live performances and came up with this gem from a music festival in 2008.. I've already downloaded his last two albums which don't seem to have a weak song on them. Love the music and the lyrics are very uplifting. LOVE the official video of Yell Fire. Great song. Which record is that track from? I'm seriously thinking of making a road trip to Cleveland in November when he plays at the House of Blues. 
You HAVE to see him live sometime! The energy in the audience was amazing. He even made his way up to the isles in the balcony where our seats were and sang and played guitar right in front of us.
Who doesn't in the music biz unless they are stupid! haha! But I love that they seemed to be kindred spirits ( minus the ganja 
)

Got tickets today for the show in Cleveland. I'm gonna take my 10 year old son. He's gonna freak when Michael calls for all kids to come up on stage for the last song Say Hey! We adopted him and he's also Irish, German and African just like Michael was/is. Just so cool! Can't wait!
He was great when we were on the same wavelength.
Michael and his band were on David Letterman last night!!
Michael and band are coming to Seattle December 8th!! I put it out there and the Universe answered me! 
How weird!! I got my wish!!
Love it when that happens!
He came up to the balcony to sing up close and stood right beside me for a minute. But before I could get a high five he was gone I love that he plays for the people in the nose bleed seats at every show.
Ya, if you ever have a chance to see Michael Franti GO! You will not be disappointed! Dare I say the energy was more intense than a U2 show but it was a smaller venue too so that's a fair comparison, but still the vibe was something I will never forget!
Finally saw Franti LIVE in Seattle last week!
The show was fantastic, it was a benefit concert for the Seattle First school, a school for homeless kids. It was amazing! The whole place was shaking the entire show! Even the nose bleeds were up dancing the whole time! I was in the lower balcony because my friends didn't have the energy to do the pit on the floor, wanted seats with more room and a place to sit during the slow moments. There was only 1 slow moment... the beginning of Gloria.
We could see perfectly from above and had room to "shake it" without hurting people!
It was a blast. I love him so much. What an amazing person he is ..such a great human being with a beautiful soul.
He does so much good in the world and treats his fans really well.
Just like another rock star I know!
Power to peaceful y'all!
Here's a youtube video showing my son on stage for Say Hey. He's in the brown shirt. Don't know who that lady was next to him (not me) but she was REALLY into the show.
