OK, so I've been a fan of Susan's for 2 years but had never seen her live before last night's gig at the Freight. Despite her protests that there are more important people to be in awe of, I was awestruck by the performance. I honestly can't remember a performance I've seen recently that matched the energy of that one -- or one that exceeded my already-lofty expectations so much. Now the hard part: waiting until the next time she comes around. - -- - --------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Levy email: alevy@yahoo-inc.com Producer Yahoo! voice: 408.731.3493 3400 Central Expwy. / Suite 201 / Santa Clara, CA / 95051 - --------------------------------------------------------- - -************************************************************************************* - -This has been a posting from the Susan Werner "believers" list - -To unsubscribe send mail to Majordomo@smoe.org with "unsubscribe believers"in the body of the message. - -To post to the list send mail to believers@smoe.org - -To reach a human, send to charlies@voicenet.com - -Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com - -************************************************************************************* ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Jan 1998 10:53:48 -0800 (PST) From: "Erin O'connell" Subject: Can't wait! I've been waiting to catch Susan live for over a year, ever since I picked up LOTGSG after finding it in a listening station at Circuit City (who'd have thought?). The last time she came to Seattle I had to work, so I was thrilled to find out she was coming back, to one of my favorite venues, and on my birthday no less! I'm wondering if anyone can provide any perspective on Suzzy Roche, who is playing tomorrow as well. I've never heard anything by her solo or by The Roches, and I'm wondering what to expect. I visited her website and came away with "eclectic" as the only word to describe her, but not really sure of her sound. I'll be front & center tomorrow, in my corduroy jumper :-) Erin "Oh life is sweet but it sure is short so you better enjoy the ride." -Jonathan Kingham Erin O'Connell Western Washington University n9246677@cc.wwu.edu - -************************************************************************************* - -This has been a posting from the Susan Werner "believers" list - -To unsubscribe send mail to Majordomo@smoe.org with "unsubscribe believers"in the body of the message. - -To post to the list send mail to believers@smoe.org - -To reach a human, send to charlies@voicenet.com - -Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com - -************************************************************************************* ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Jan 1998 11:36:18 -0800 (Pacific Standard Time) From: Sally Charette Subject: Re: Can't wait! Erin-- You're in for a treat! Susan Werner is so dynamic in concert! There's info on Suzzy Roche at http://www.flemtam.com/sr.html, including RealAudio samples. (The text is below) Also more info and WAV files at http://www.nj.com/music/edition1/roche.html "Suzzy Roche's fans always knew she could make it as a solo performer. She's got the voice, the stage presence, the writing and the musical chops. Since the late 70s when The Roches captured our ears, Suzzy has been celebrated. The Roches' superb harmonies, quirky takes on life, and legendary shows made them widely popular. Suzzy was always the front woman,knocking out audiences with her hilarious epiphanies and deadpan humor. As a solo artist, she combines presence and wit with a sense of intimacy to create an exceptionally captivating show. Roche's first solo release, Holy Smokes (Sept. 1997), is an album of unlikely subjects and approaches that highlights her distinctive, agile voice. "Finally inaugurating the solo career she obviously had in her, the youngest Roche sister is sure to be tuneful, impish and very much there on stage." - The Village Voice ****** Sally Charette scharett@library.ucla.edu "Always behave like a duck -- keep calm and unruffled on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath." --Jacob Braude - -************************************************************************************* - -This has been a posting from the Susan Werner "believers" list - -To unsubscribe send mail to Majordomo@smoe.org with "unsubscribe believers"in the body of the message. - -To post to the list send mail to believers@smoe.org - -To reach a human, send to charlies@voicenet.com - -Susan's CD's are available on your desktop at songs.com - -************************************************************************************* ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Jan 1998 17:46:23 EST From: CMarie1423 Subject: Susan's Guitar Is everyone on this list from California? I'm not, I'm from New England . . . but that's not why I'm writing. Thought you all would be interested to know about Susan's new guitar-you know, that red one that's shocked everyone (including me). My dad is friends with a lot of people who work for guitar companies, and a big fan and acquaintance of jazz guitarist Pat Martino, who's also playing one, so he could tell me all about it. It's a Parker Fly. It has dozens of patents for new things, it has two different pickups and can sound like an acoustic or electric, and the coolest part is it only weighs about two and a half pounds. Most electric guitars are much heavier . . .
