Yeah, but I can't imagine listening to _Hips and Makers_ or _Strange Angels_ and thinking it's just another "folk chick with guitar." In fact, I don't care what the interviewer or, for that matter, Hersh herself seems to say; I think _Strange Angels_ is by far the best of the three solo albums, and absolutely crucial to a collection.

I'm still on the road, but I'll be in Baltimore on the 4th. Of course, I still need to get a local internet provider, move into my apartment on the 9th, start working again, stuff like that, so it'll be a bit before I can start participating much. While at Vickie's in Chicago, I ordered my tix for the Tin Angel shows. Jeff W has typically organized a suite (and lost money on it too), and I haven't seen mention of one yet. I'd be willing to help with one, but with all my moving going on, I need someone to do the legwork. I'll front the credit card though :) Jeff usually got a hotel outside of town that was in a chain he used for work. I have no such preferences, and would rather stay more in town. Anyone have any suggestions? Anyone willing to call around a bit and find somewhere that would be suitable? Also, how many people would be interested in getting a suite? Another thing, I'd be willing to go up on Friday and stay two nights, seeing Melissa Ferrick and Beth Sorentino the night before. Any interest in that? One last also... I'll be driving from Baltimore and will have room in my car for others if they want a ride. Let me know if you are interested. Time to put Brad's computer to bed. Tomorrow I'm off to West Virginia for a few days before heading home.

I bought her cd Untogether in Canada early last year. I was kind of disappointed with it because I really liked the type of music she sang more on Forever Knight and didn't find anything stood out much on her own cd. I've never heard of Hanging Garden though is that something perhaps worth purchasing for just her song? Totally unrelated, I saw something mentioned about a Buffy soundtrack for the tv show, but I delated the message. Does anyone know the track listing for it possibly? Thanks.
