So Tardy .


I am very late in thanking everyone who came out to party with us these last few shows . Here's a recap :

Mississippi . So cool . I was really nervous and super chatty all night , I might have been extra gross at times... but the new songs went over very well , I think . Stink , thanks for representing the absentee boarders , you are one thinky Stink! And I LOVED my roses , I dunno who orchestrated that , I heard Kadee was one culprit , but , they are in my livingroom not being allowed to die . So thank you for them .

Portland Teen Idol . I've performed with Nina Hagen , John Doe , Dave Navarro and Hank III . But getting up to sing after some of those kids ? I was totally self conscious and felt like an ass . THEY WERE SO GOOD! I wish I had had some kind of creative outlet like that when I was 14 , or folks who pushed me and supported me in finding my own voice . What a great thing they are doing for those kids ... you will get to see some of them perform with me again for the Christmas show this year . Prepare to be stunned .

Castcade AIDS benefit . We raised more than $18,000.00 for Aids research by auctioning off a private concert that was held in the Laurence Gallery on Fathers Day . Poor Davey was so tired , but he rallied and came down , as did Steph from Kleveland to donate their skills to the cause . My goodness , I do love the intimate setting for a show .

So now I'm back on my schedule of writing for a few hours in the morning , trying to get some exercise , not drinking and endeavoring to not lose it while the clock ticks down to JAW Festival .

That's it for now , Lovelies .
See you out there .
