best. live performance. ever.

I just got back from a show starring the Indigo Girls, with a special appearance by a band I’d never heard of. The group is called Girlyman, and they are drop-dead fantastic. They knocked us all absolutely dead, and it was obvious that the Indigo Girls, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers, had a great deal of respect for these guys.

Here’s a vid of one of their recent songs, “Young James Dean.” In the live performance, they also had a drummer, JJ Jones, who added a nice kick to their sound. You might want to consider checking them out if they come to a town near you.

    you say: " expecting to be treated with basic human respect can be a risk that's not worth taking. " I say: " Without taking that risk, nothing will ever change. Sticking out like a sore thumb is ok :) - believe me I am talking from experience.Having a selective memory really helps though."

    Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and all. But just imagine if you added some great graphics or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and videos, this site could certainly be one of the most beneficial in its field. Awesome blog!
