..misty water colored memories...

so i sent you the link to orphan studios, but i guess i didn't pay close enough attention to all of the pictures. when i read your email, you mentioned brandi, ig, and michelle. so of course i had to go back to the site...and i just saw this picture. it's kind of sweet and sad and now i feel old. i remember the first time i saw these two in a show...ahhh...i was so young. what good times. i still love her voice. you know....the song "losing heart" by brandi, reminds me of michelle malone. that could have been the perfect song for her. hey, maybe mm and bc will collaborate. that would be a musical match made in heaven.

i hope you had a blast at the show tonight. i know i said i hated you, but you know i was just being a very jealous person. although you did flake on sending me those cds. so to make it up to me, you have to send me the first bc cd. deal? good.

post soon!

Bored Be Gone

This is just one of this kid's videos. He's crazy!

Checking in

I've been playing the part of a little blog-absentee lately. But yes, I'm alive and kicking. Can't wait for the weekend. A small show Friday night, wine tasting festival Sat., rest Sunday. All are much needed.

Oh my goodness

So MEP, I took your Brandi Carlile words to heart and decided to check her out...this is what I found:



Oh my god her voice on this song seriously gives me chills. If the rest of her stuff sounds like this, then count me in. PS she reminds me of several different singers all rolled into one: kd lang, patsy cline, and johnette napolitano of concrete blonde. (Can't you hear this girl singing "Joey"?) So you most definitely have to make me a copy of her cd.


Okay, while we're talking about great musicians, you've got to check out this song. I'm in love. Do you remember that weird video I posted a while back where that odd girl kept singing while awkward things were going on with her face? Well, this is the same girl, Sia. I actually just bought her cd "Colour The Small One". Did I say that I am in love?




And lastly, Colbie Caillat. Her video on youtube has been disabled from embedding, but here's a link to the page..

Enjoy.

more pictures of miss mandy

This really does make it look like I was far away, but trust me I could have thrown my shoe at her...although that would have been weird. So nevermind. I was close. You can just trust me on that one.

i'm a loser

So I totally confess that I just saw Mandy Moore tonight at the Roxy. Yes, I'm a loser. I'm a 30something dork who still goes to shows performed by 23 year olds. Of course I had a great time. The kid is amazing. I love it when singers can actually outperform their own voices on their albums because, let's be honest, that happens very rarely anymore. I really was quite impressed at her voice. In all honesty though, I'm hung up on the fact that she wrote about 3/4ths of the album (Wild Hope) with the Weepies and well, I'm obsessed with The Weepies!

Mep, if you're willing to give the cd a chance, I'll make you a copy. That's what kind of friend I am. (you can thank me later.) :)


ps....this girl is gorgeous.
