Thanks for the promote. I just sent an e-mail of Andrew Bird youtube performances I like to a friend; thought I'd share with you in case you hadn't caught some:

"
Here's a song that's much better live than on the record, performed at the Fillmore with a fun audience... fun lyrics, and lyrical presentation:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Buxc-CNfLM

Here he is again on the violin, and also playing guitar and glockenspiel, with a band backing him up:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmKGPyYcf8g

Here's a slower song from a CD coming out Jan. 20th called Noble Beast (that album title is a David Attenborough reference):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYwUVSUd3Ko

Here's a strange one of him walking around Paris singing and playing for a popular French music blog:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsR0uyPxqxI

Here's a song I really like,... he supposedly got the lyrics from a letter he found on the ground (he said the letter started 'Dear Dirty,' and then went on to describe in a simple caveman dialect what it was like being a caveman):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKnjsRvsyGQ

Finally, here he is first playing a song he wrote for a children's show he appeared on, then rolling into an intense performance of a pretty wild song:
