Neil Finn takes song request from fan holding up an iPad

Neil Finn, whom you may know better as the lead singer of Crowded House, is hands down one of my favourite song writers. He’s also very good live, and is a natural talent when it comes to interacting with the audience.

Anyway, here is a funny little video of a recent show at the Seymour Theatre in Sydney, where someone in the audience requested a song by holding up their iPad. I’m not sure if this is a common thing to happen at concerts these days, but Neil, always the entertainer, took it in stride by making a few humorous comments before performing the song.

FYI: some of the banter is about “Elias” who was a fan in the audience who tried his best (i.e. not a professional musician) with the piano accompaniment in the previous song.
