#6426, 6427 I have her albums, like her work very much. I don't think she has quite the pipes and chops of Joanne Shaw Taylor, but she is very, very good. Checked out some Marc Broussard, and while I dig his music, I just can't see battling Seattle traffic (which is a nightmare for me with the ffakakta vision), paying scalper prices and trying to deal with getting around the University District in Seattle at night by myself when that place was already pretty damned strange when I went to school some 35 years ago. If tickets were still available via box office and I could bring a friend to drive, sure. I hope that one day soon I get a chance to see both of these talented women play.
And after a beautiful day here on Saturday, the weather for the outdoor show I was going to attend tomorrow is officially rain off and on all damned day. Oh well, at least I've gotten to see a few great shows the last couple of years. Health kept me from going for quite a while, but I've figured out some ways to cope for 2-3 hours shows.
Oh, and here's a little JST (I've linked this before, and I like all of her albums, too, but this might be my favorite of hers):: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAkmtOGTX4A
Alright, new Dollskin. 3 out of 4 stars. Gets off to a wobbly start, but the girls punch your mouth pretty good after that.
New Puddle of Mudd. 3.5 stars out of 4. Could use a bit more variation, but couple nice breaks. Currently listening to the 9th track, Kiss it Goodbye, and I swear it sounds as if Nirvana and Alice in Chains (Layne Staley years) had a kid and birthed this song. Seriously. Also, the vid track "Uh-Oh" is fun. 2:17 in was basically how I ended things with the first wife. Well, I was a little more polite.
