So, I saw Emm again in London at Fanshawe College.  I'm expecting this bar(The
Outback in the Student Union) to be packed full of Emm's old friends or
something but it wasn't like that at all.  There were a lot of open booths.
The night started out with Little Miss Moffat - very cool.  I really liked her
music and her songs were like little stories.  She's only 23.  She normally
had a band but she was solo today.  I spoke with her after the show and
complimented her on her set. She was a really nice person.  

Emm arrives after Little Miss Moffat's set and says "Hi" to us and says she'll
be out to talk to us in a few, but she didn't come out because she only had
like 30 minutes before she went on.  I'm assuming she was warming up.  

Next, was Shantih... Oh boy, where do I start?  Okay, I'm secure enough in
myself 
to say that she was a very pretty woman.  I was constantly reminded of this
from the 3 guys I came to the concert with!!!  She had a band(guitar, bass,
drums) and she played electric guitar as well.  I just have to say it was
pretty bad.  I mean, the band was good, and she would be good, if she didn't
sing!  And she would talk between songs and was a total ditz - I don't know,
maybe she was nervous.  We talked to her after the show b/c my cousin Marc
wanted her autograph and she sat with us for a while and talked while the guys
drooled.  I asked her where she was from because she had a funky accent and
she was from London, but lived in Holland, and she's Italian, so she had a
Canadian/Dutch/Italian accent - nothing I've ever heard!

FINALLY!!! Emm comes on solo, plays Phonecall 45, Wisdombus, and Your Sort of
Human Being.  Then she tells everyone that we've come all the way from Detroit
and that we've come to quite a few shows and thanks us!  I said, "No, Thank
YOU!"  She laughs and says, "No, thank you!"  Next she plays Death is a New
Day(one I haven't heard live - very cool), and Julia.  Then she asks if there
are any requests from the Detroit table and Marc(the metal head) yells out
Crazy Train, and Alvin and I say Hook Machine.  She played Crazy Train, 89
Days of Alcatraz, Summerlong and Hook Machine- as per our request and said,
"It's all about the table from Detroit!" and asked us how we got across the
border because we were "Crazy Americans"!  She followed with a Clash
song(Straight to Hell?), and ended with Acid.  - 11 songs.

After the show, she came and sat with us and I busted out "the tape" and said
she was really excited to hear it. She complimented me on my song titles!  I
also invited her to one of my upcoming mini-gigs and she said she'd try to
make it.  We talked some more but we had a long drive ahead and Alvin had to
wake up early, so the night ended...

Your sort of detailed post,
Trish
