Melissa Ferrick: The Social


Created with Admarket’s flickrSLiDR.

We shouldn’t wait 15 months between Melissa shows. That’s just nuts. We should quit our jobs and travel around the country, following her from show to show. Wait. I’m too old for that. We got home at 2am, I was up at 6:30am and I’m exhausted… and we’re going to do it all over again tonight. Yay us!

Anyway – the show was awesome. The Social tends to have a lot of talkers and a lot of drunk baby dykes, last night – there weren’t too many of either. It helped that the really big dude with the really big microphone was telling chicks to STFU. Heh.

The new songs are excellent. I have some video – it’s not great, the bright red light over Melissa’s head sucked and I needed to step back about 2 feet from the stage but that would have been where Mr Really Big Guy with the Really Big Mic was standing. I’ll try video again tonight – At Cafe Eleven… who knows what I’ll get.

Oh, also, Edie Carey – awesome. We’ve missed her. She was recovering from the flu and not her best but still – awesome, maybe more awesome because she had the flu, ya know? And she did sing Violently, with Melissa. I have video. Michelle is happy about that.

Videos later – after coffee and a shower and maybe a nap. Damn I’m old.
