I'm a little bit behind on this thread but I got it right away. It's a reference we use around the office from time to time.

Looks like Jonathan Demme has passed away from complications from esophageal cancer. Sad news. He made some great films. http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-39724613?ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbc_breaking&ns_source=twitter&ns_linkname=news_central

Saw her last night opening for (and then playing with) Richard Thompson and she was fantastic. -
Are you going both nights?

Bummed that I'm passing on this. Just sold my tickets to a friend because I'm feeling pretty crappy.

If you like the new album, the show is great. As you may know, for this tour they are playing songs 1-25 of the 50 Song Memoir on the fist night and songs 26-50 on the second night. It feels a little more like a Stephin Merritt solo show than past Magnetic Fields tours in that he has a bigger new band (with only Sam Davol and Shirley Simms as holdovers) and Merritt is more at the center of the stage.
-
I do - but I am a big Merritt fan. It doesn't have the range of styles of something like 69 Love Songs - and he sings all 50 songs - so it can start to blend together if you are listening to it straight through. But it is also autobiographical and more personal than anything else he has done so it is interesting to get that insight into his life.

Ha - yes! Including singing "a ship without a rudder is like a ship without a rudder" in the middle of their first song ...

Tim - do you know who the woman was singing back-up with Dando? It was incredibly awkward for that half-song because she kept asking him if she should stay on stage and he wouldn't answer then he played that Jayhawks song.
