A Rare set and a Toronto Date

The reviews from Sweet One and Flare's trip to see Sarah play in Buffalo revealed some great information. Sarah's solo and intimate show included many requests and rare live tracks like Somebodys Arms, The Darkroom, Angle, Me and Jerome, etc. Sarah also debuted a new song, "Say I Was Kind", was also noted on playing other new songs during her warm up.

Sweetone's scanned setlist, song reviews, and Flares venue shots are all available here:
Buffalo - October 29, 2005.


Sarah also told them about her plans to play with a quartet for a special show in Toronto this December.
It will be two nights with nothing but a string quartet, she called them "Christmas shows" but mentioned the possibility of High, so I imagine there will be many non-christmas song amongst the mix, and the plan is to have it at Harbourfront Centre. - Sweet One
