They've even appeared on "Saturday Night Live," as early as *1984*. Oops, never mind. Well, it was still hilarious....

No major narrative today (seemed like my last one fell on deaf ears, and there isn't much to report anyway), but last night's Amy Correia show was darn wonderful. It was in the *downstairs* room of Lunapark, which only holds about 70 people, so it was the perfect, intimate vibe. Just Amy and her cellist again, but this time she played a full set (as opposed to the short set I saw with the "Girls Room" tour). Amy was jittery before the show, and indeed, she seemed nervous during the first two songs (which are also the first two songs on the album). However, she hit her stride with the third tune and sustained that intensity until the end. There was one song I hadn't heard before -- some old folk-blues worksong with a classic refrain structure. Kind of a "I want me a hussssband..." motif. She sang it a capella, but had the crowd clap on the fourth upbeat of every measure. The audience participation worked beautifully, which is pretty rare. I brought her a copy of the review I wrote of her album, and she was so pleased with it that she embarrassed me by repeatedly making other friends read it, in front of me. ;) Also had a very cute chat with Shannon McNally, whom you might remember as the headliner of the aforementioned "Girls Room." Boy, is she impossibly nice. A real innocent. "It's gotta have a lot of looove," she beamed, describing her tastes in music. I gathered that religion may be the culprit. Footnote: Amy's clunky car is missing a hubcap and a driver's side door-handle. Heh. Meanwhile, her album hits the stores on Tuesday, and the six-song EP (two non-LP tracks) is available now. One Feg has already bought the EP and likes it a lot, but remains incognito for fear of being ridiculed. ;) Went by Rockaway Records prior to this late-starting show (it was about 10:45 pm), and bought very cheap copies of the two-year-old Cornelius album on Matador (chalk up one belated Eb endorsement!) and the new Vic Chesnutt album on Backburner. The latter was even shrinkwrapped (just $5.99). I hope I don't regret passing up cutouts of the new Traffic reissue(s). Oh, and I'm sorry to say that the going secondhand price for Jewels for Sophia has dipped to a pitiful $4.99. Ow. Saw used copies of Perspex, Gravy Deco and Storefront too, but didn't check their tags. (You know, sometimes I think we'd launch a lot of interesting dialogues if people would post more about their musical shopping trips....) Word, Eb PS Did others of you who bought the Vic Chesnutt disc find a strange layout error on the back cover? Instead of listing all 10 songs, my copy lists the first five songs *twice*. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2000 15:50:11 -0500 From: steve Subject: For home recording Fegs http://www.creativemac.com/cgi-bin/getframe.cgi?/HTM/News/09_00/protools51. htm - - Steve ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2000 15:20:27 -0700 (PDT) From: Capuchin Subject: Re: For home recording Fegs http://www.alsa-project.org/applications.php3 Where being free isn't a "bonus", it's part of the design.
