Foals and Freelance Whales played at the Firebird on Saturday. The show sold out, making it one of five sellouts we're aware of over the last three days. Jason Stoff was there to shoot the insanity; he had some seriously good things to say about Foals' set. A few highlights, below.

We were lucky to get a band as great as Freelance Whales to play here, but with the crowds poor showing during their set as well as comments like DB's. This will just continue to push the STL to the bottom of music barrel. No wonder Nickleback sells out here.

I think everyone should be happy that the STL music scene is thriving and we now have a venue that can bring in 3 quality acts in one night for less than it costs for 3 gallons of gas. All three acts were great in their own way and the night overall was fantastic!

I agree that Freelance Whales put on a great show. I also agree with DB...they should've gone on first. They may have been the "perfect compliment" before Foals, but they were the perfect buzz-kill after the naked & famous.

DB I guess you just don't know good music. Freelance Whales provided the perfect compliment to the Foals performance. The Whales put on a great show.

Guess you got there late because you failed to mention The Naked & Famous. Which by the way, blew away Freelance Whales. Freelance Whales put the audience to sleep. Horrible choice for a lead-in to the Foals.
