November 21st marked Peter
Bjorn and John's very first rehearsal and the tenth anniversary of that, at
Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, turned into an endless celebration of hits,
b-sides and unreleased songs from their newest hit album, Living Thing (QRO review), as well as Writer's Block.
Guest singers were invited to join the celebration including a full
line-up of the L.A. Ladies' Choir group harmonizing on "Just the Past",
"Nothing to Worry About " and "Amsterdam", with an addition of fellow Swede,
Lykke Li (QRO album review),
singing Victoria Bergsman's (Taken By Trees - QRO album review) part on "Young Folks".
 The non-stop event of active enthusiasm
lead Peter Morén to collapse on the floor, only to get up saying, "Turns out,
we have a lot of time left, so we're just gonna keep playing!" Loud cheers came from the crowd as fans
continued to dance just as they did from the beginning of the show.
Peter, Bjorn and John ended the show with
a bow to all who attended and closed out with "The Object of My
Affection". Peter thanked
everyone for joining on this special day as he announced they were going to
sign autographs after the show. He
jumped off the stage and ran towards the merch booth where a horde of fans
followed. Meeting and greeting the
fans brought the previously engaging show into the hands of fans.
