 FOSTER THE PEOPLE... WHY WE'RE EXCITED: Lucky you - no longer will you have to listen to me whining/screaming/crying about the fact that Foster The People ignored our existence on both of their 2011 Australian tours... and lucky me - I finally get to see songs from one of my favourite debut albums of 2011 live! Click HERE to read our write-up on Foster The People placing at #3 on Best 2011 Albums So Far list. Personnel... MARK FOSTER [ vocals, keyboards, piano, synthesizers, guitar, programming & percussion ] @fosterthepeople  MARK PONTIUS [ drums & extra percussion ] @mrpontwee  CUBBIE FINK [ bass & backing vocals ]  + [touring members] SEAN CIMINO (guitar, keyboard, synthesizer and backing vocals) & ISOM INNIS (keyboard, piano and backing vocals).  Origin: Los Angeles, USA. BFF-SHIP STRATEGY: Lobsters [to eat], porcupines [as pets], and late-night Poker Nights... these are just a few of Foster The People's favourite things. Get creative! DID YOU KNOW? Touring-member Sean Cimino has toured New Zealand previously under the employment of Brooke Fraser as part of her 2010 'Flags' album tour.
