And I found more information (for the Toronto show and more) at The Edge's radio website: http://edge.passport.ca They practically *force* you to listen to the station's live feed as you look through the site, but at least you can find information there. It almost looks like there *isn't* an official site! Jill ;D (still looking, though) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Jun 1998 09:02:27 EDT From: Riphug@aol.com Subject: Re: edgefest?

I missed that "Fax" interview clip with Tara on MuchMusic yesterday, but apparently she did mention that she just signed to a major label in the U.S., similar to how Sarah signed to Arista prior to *her* second album. I was just wondering if anyone knew which label she signed to, the terms of the agreement, and anything like that? Perhaps some of the ITW-ers can help out here... :) - - Tab :) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Jun 1998 12:01:21 PDT From: "Tabassum Siddiqui" Subject: OAC: Holly McNarland question Hey, all... I happened to catch a live set by Holly McNarland on CBC Radio on Sunday - - she was performing live outdoors somewhere to help celebrate International Aboriginal Day, but since I tuned in late, I didn't really catch where she was playing or anything like that. Anyhow, the set, although brief, was absolutely amazing, and I was just wondering, for those who have seen her recently, has she added a female backup singer? 'Cause on a couple songs, most notably "Stormy", she was doing this overlapped, layered vocal thing that sounded great, but the background vocals were *exactly* the same as her own, so I think it isn't a backup singer but a tape, or maybe some kind of microphone effect? The two times I've seen her (with her old, previous band), she only had the guys do backup vocals on the choruses or whatever - the songs were done in more of a strightforward arrangement. But it seems that with constant touring, and the new band, that she's experimenting with the songs more live. Anyhow, if anyone has any info, let me know. Also, did anyone else catch this and manage to tape it? By the time I got over the initial shock of stumbling (fumbling? ) upon the concert, I couldn't find a tape in time to tape the whole thing... - - Tab :) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Jun 1998 13:11:55 PDT From: "Shawna Caspi" Subject: A couple of media things Hello everyone! *looks out on the vast number of various listers* Sorry for the multiple posts...but just think, i'm getting 3 copies of this too! :) First of all, thanks to Andy of the Canadian music list, I caught Rapid Fax today! :) (at 3:40) and the Indigo Girls were on, talking a bit about Lilith and their rock club tour (I think that's what they called it) featuring an all women bill as well. there was some footage from the Gorge Lilith featuring IG... I have this extra-sensory feeling that Lilith's gonna be on Fax ALOT in the near future so I better tune in! :) Second of all, in the new issue of Time magazine (Canadian edition) there's a very lengthy article on feminism....I'll just type out the blurb involving Lilith: ....."Bust, which began as a photocopied 'zine, is essentially a product of alternative culture's Riot Grrrl movement, an effort by new female bands in the early '90s to reclaim the brash, bratty sense of self-control that psychologists claim girls lose just before puberty. And in many ways, the movement succeeded, as any fan of Sleater-Kinney and even the Spice Girls will tell you. But even in the world of pop music, with the spirit of girl power behind it, the concept of feminism is often misapplied. Look how the label is tossed about: female singers like Meredith Brooks and Alanis Morissette are installed as icons of woman power (alongside real artist-activists like Tori Amos) simply because they sing about mad moods or boyfriends who have dumped them. In the late '60s, when the label was applied more sparingly, no one thought to call Nancy Sinatra a feminist, and yet if she recorded These Boots Are Made for Walkin' in 1998, she'd probably find herself headlining the Lilith Fair...."
