Waiting for Columbus is the first live album by the Americanmarker rock band Little Feat, released in 1978. It was recorded during seven performances, four at the Rainbow Theatremarker in Londonmarker 2-4 August 1977, and three at George Washington Universitymarker's Lisner Auditorium in Washington, D.C.marker 8-10 August 1977. Local Washington radio personality Cerphe Colwell can be heard leading the audience in a "F-E-A-T" spellout on the first track of the album.

The band recorded and mixed enough material from these performances for a triple LP, but for marketing reasons kept it to a double album. Three of the unused tracks were included on their 1981 album Hoy-Hoy!. All were eventually released on the 2002 "Deluxe edition" CD.
