Free Feist show downtown Toronto in an hour (6:30)

[AD]

If you’re tired of Feist simply showing up onstage for the occasional guest appearance these days, you’ll get the chance to see her returning to headlining solo form tonight (November 5) in Toronto. And you’ll get to do that for free.

This evening, the beloved Canadian songstress will be playing at Holt Renfrew in Toronto (50 Bloor St. W.), where she will be helping unveil the shop’s new holiday window display. (Yes, it’s already that time of year.) The show kicks off at 6:30 p.m., and like we said, it’s free.

Feist is filling in for actress/singer Kristen Chenoweth, who cancelled her appearance earlier this week due to illness.

Now, if you’re wondering why Feist might be pairing up with Holt Renfrew, it could have something to do with the store donating a percentage of the evening’s sales to the United Way of Canada. After all, we know how much Feist loves her charity.

Thanks for the heads up... I could make it if I rushed out the door, but I just got home from work. (Already becoming spoiled by the variety of the city once again it seems!)

I'm imagining a motley horde of skanks puffing glass and staring through the window then going in and recreating the smoke-salmon-stashed-in-the beard scene from Trading Places.
