I would have to agree that Neko is better on record than live. But I haven't seen her live in a long, long time…

I was just talking to a colleague about the Raveonettes (not the non-sequiter it appears) and realized while talking to him that seeing their live show actually detracts from my appreciation of their music overall now. I can't listen to it without picturing them singing, apparently bored out of their frickin' minds. So now the music sounds even more boring.
I can see pollard's point. And I am not enticed by her fine…whatever. ;)
New Pornographers kick ass, btw. (Like that's news here…)

well not exactly my point, seeing her live did not ruin anything for me, just didn't do anything for me that I could not get from listening to the cd
the point you are making applies to me more with the Dandy Warhols, who I have yet to listen to since their show because it was such a let down, I am sure I will come back to it eventually, the same thing happened to me with the White Stripes, did not listen to them for a year after their last 9:30 show

Actually my memory is coming back to me…. I did get a bit bored at a Neko Case show, but I just put that down to not knowing any of the songs very well. Towards the end she played a couple of covers and the couple of her songs I knew and that was pretty enjoyable.

Didn't mean to imply that the Neko show detracted from your interest in her records – sorry, just meant that I can see a live show not adding anything, and in some cases taking away…
I guess I was agreeing that you don't need to see everything you like…

BTW - the presale for Morrissey @ the Apollo is at 8 am EST, not PST. So that means they're on sale … now.
My girlfriend just got tix for Saturday in the orchestra. :eek:

Wow, 9:30 Club announces a Neil Diamond impersonator show, an Elvis impersonator show, and a male impersonator show all in the space of two weeks.
They really are going all out to pass Iota and Black Cat for best DC club status, aren't they?
