Tara has come so, so far. I was thinking about that as I listened to one of her first-ever album songs, "The Clayoquat Song" on the Nomad album today (thanks, J!) *finally*. She's so amazing, though, and a huge inspiration to me and my music. "Hold me Jordan" is really *just* "Jordan", it was a misprint on the CD and it should be corrected on the new runs, maybe... She's been doing it at shows for more than a year now and it keeps getting better. her ne material is *astounding*. I heard the Passenger demo she and Bill are working on as well as another new song while I was in vancouver and they both sounded great, I think she's going to blow peopl eaway w/ this album. I could gush about tara way more, but I've had an awful 2 days and need sleep. take care all, jessica n. weiser http://adam.nettfriends.com/Jess "i've got nothing to say and nothing to do, but hope i heal soon cause death is a new day a new day without you." -emm g. :( ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Sep 1998 00:35:13 -0400 From: Paul Schreiber Subject: Emm's Waterloo show I went to the show at Waterloo on Thursday, at least the Emm part of it :) I left about 10:50 'cause I wanted to be home before midnight, having work and all yesterday morning. I was thinking to myself before the show, we must be like the only 3 people here who've heard of Emm. :) Her name wasn't even on the sign outside, or on the tickets. I recognized her before the show -- "Hey Emm!" and said hello and introduced myself. She was really nice. :) Spirit of the West had a room with a security guy outside, but nothing for poor Emm. I saw SOTW had a notebook ... playing computer games maybe? It was really cool to see how well it went. Emm was great, she worked the crowd really well. Fed Hall looks basically like this: there's a stage, a big floor area in front, and seats on three sides. There are more seats upstairs. So she gets halfway into a song and the four of us decide to grab a spot. (There are like five people on the floor now.) A song later, I turn around, and wow, was it packed! Emm kicks ass! There was of course, the drunk guy or two, but she handled it so well. "Yeah, baby!" Oh yeah, the ubiquitious Kevin Fox :) was on cello. Talked to him after the show. He rembered me & Ed but forgot our names (again). Did seem to remember the name of some pretty girl though... Emm's setlist: ??? (don't know the first song) Wisdom Bus Summerlong Acid Hello Aquarius -- to Dennis (although half the crowd claimed to be aquarian) July After her set, my friend Steve disappeared, mumbling something about going to buy her CD. :) I got this note from my Steve today: >Just wanted to say thanks for inviting me to come along last night. I >wouldn't have gone otherwise & it was a lot of fun. Emm's CD is really >cool too (have been listening to it all day here at work).

Specifically about the Oct 31st [Halloween] show in Toronto at the Phoenix :-) Wanna go, but all my friends hate her!
