After seeing Veruca Salt at Lee's Palace last night, I feel compelled to tell everyone that if you get a chance to see VS live on their current tour, do NOT pass it up...this band is Rock with a capital R, they very nearly blew the roof off the dump last night (and I do mean dump, as anyone who's ever been to Lee's can attest). It was my first time seeing the Salts live, and they most definitely didn't disappoint...my only complaint is that they didn't play "One Last Time", but other than that, they put on a fantastic show. I was also pleasantly surprised to discover that my favourite new band Starling were one of the opening acts...I very highly recommend their excellent new CD "Sustainer", which is a perfect pop-rock record, the first great summer album of 2000 in my books. On another note, I'm sure I'm not the only Aimee Mann fan on this list (at least I hope not), so I'd just like to point out that her new album "Bachelor No. 2" is out now and it's awesome (no surprise there). And I also just picked up Beth Orton's "Central Reservation"...I know I'm a bit late on that one, but wow, what an amazing album. ************************************************************ Mike Keast (michael.keast@giffels.com) http://www.geocities.com/dtswd/ ************************************************************ ------------------------------ End of headline-girl-digest V3 #124 ***********************************
