Hello, I'm looking for live Liz tapes, especially from the current tour. I'm especially interested in DAT audience/FM recordings, and also don't mind analog FM recordings. I have lots of Liz DATs to trade and many other similar artists as well. Please send your list if interested! Thanks! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 6 Oct 1998 22:39:05 -0700 (PDT) From: Matt Schulz Subject: Fave Liz moments OK, the coolest Liz moments -- - -- The opening to whitechocolatespaceegg. Very dreamy. Very cool. - -- Use of the words "almost immediately" in Fuck And Run. Shows that the character feels bad, but not quite bad enough to change. - -- "If you're tired of looking at my face, I guess I already am" Its so sad, it just rips your heart out. - -- The harmonica wail on Baby Got Going - -- The long, drawn out "yeaaahh" before "I liked it" during Johnny Feelgood. The woman just makes me sweat. - -- Then of course, there's the strictly male side of me that loves to hear all of Flower and Supernova. And much, much more... Anyway, that's all. Just wanted to participate... Matt _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

Liz was amazing at the 9:30 Club in DC. She looked great and her voice was spectaclar. I've been trying to figure out why she does all the stretching on stage. She looks so cute when she dances around, which she did do occassionally. She was much more confident than her performance this summer at the Lilith Fair. I know some people were disappointed because her set list has been pretty fixed from city to city, but I personally think it has been a good idea. She is now very comfortable performing those songs and everyone is guaranteed a great show. As far as the MTV thing goes. We could always choose one day when we all want to call/email to request the PB video. Maybe she'll make it onto the top 10. That would be the only time I could watch videos on MTV (other than 120 minutes), as the hip hop, R&B video monopoly really makes me mad.

Anyone else listen to this musician/actress's unique musical stylings? Also- favorite Liz moments: - -the way "Stuck On an Island" just starts out with her voice - -intro and outro to "Divorce Song" - -"Supernova" (which sounds amazing live, by the way) - -the drums in "Whip-Smart" - -keyboard in "Support-System"- very distinctive - -any song she ends in a lower key (like "Polyester Bride") - -"The Tra-La-La Song"- you can't help but feel the fun in this recoding!

(NASDAQ: AMZN), Capitol Records, and many of the world's leading musical artists today unveiled "What's That Song?" an online game that tests fans' knowledge of music while providing revealing insights into many of today's top artists. At Amazon.com, every day from October 6 through November 2, artists will be asked provocative questions about their musical tastes--and fans will guess the answer by identifying brief RealAudio song clips from the artists' responses. Among the artists and the questions they were asked: What is Bonnie Raitt's favorite song from childhood? What song would Radiohead's Colin Greenwood play to make people dance at his party? What is Liz Phair's favorite seduction song?

Among Capitol's participating sister labels are Blue Note, Capitol Nashville, Grand Royal, Matador, and Virgin Records. "What's That Song?" is a great new take on a game we all enjoy playing," said Matador/Capitol recording artist Liz Phair. The questions Amazon.com asked me were a lot of fun to answer, so I know my fans will get a kick out of guessing my response. It's a cool contest that people will really get hooked on." This game is probably as old as music itself. It's been on television and on the radio, and now Amazon.com is bringing it to the Internet--with our own unique twist,"said David Risher, Amazon.com's senior vice president. We're thrilled to collaborate on our first major music event with Capitol Records and its sister companies in the EMI Group, Virgin Records and EMD."

Each day, Amazon.com will randomly select a winner from those entrants who correctly identify the song title and recording artist's name for that day's song clip. Users will need the RealPlayer, available for free download at www.real.com, in order to access the song clips. Daily winners will receive $1,000 plus a prize or prizes related to the artist featured that day. All entries will automatically be entered in the grand-prize drawing. At the end of the event, Amazon.com will randomly select a grand-prize winner from all the entrants. The grand-prize winner will receive $50,000 and a personalized gift from each of the artists.

Please, when posting to the list, make sure that your mailer's preferences are set for plain-text only. - JL] From: tkreusler@columbiaresearch.com Subject: 10/5/98 October 6, 1998 The 9:30 club in Washington, D.C. was the setting and Liz Phair was the sold-out attraction last night: Oct. 5, 1998. Starting around 7:30 PM, people of all ages descended upon this modest venue, with the youngest ones huddled at the front of the stage, impatiently awaiting the star. A slide-show of mostly black-and-white photos of Liz and friends did little to pass the time, and when 9:20 rolled around, the crush on the floor was trembling in anticipation. At 9:30, the club lights dimmed and the stage lights lit up, and Liz became only partially visible as a silhouette behind the stage curtain. As the crowd cheered in unison and surged to the front of the stage, the slow, beautiful chords of "Explain It To Me" drifted out, and Liz was revealed. The Phair One looked absolutely stunning in a long, dark red dress with thin straps draping her shoulders. Liz's sinewy arms held her guitar confidently, and the slow chords of her first song were quickly a memory as she and her band members blasted into another Exile in Guyville favorite, "Six-Foot-One." After a cheery "Cinco De Mayo," Liz greeted the crowd, saying how great it was to be "back." She handed her guitar off to a band-mate and sang another Whip-Smart favorite, "Support System." Liz was smooth in her delivery of "Never Said," and when she announced "Johnny Feelgood" to the audience, everyone started to cheer. Liz smiled while singing the song, visibly pleased that the audience liked it. Liz flubbed the opening chord of her next song, "Johnny Sunshine," and she smiled to the crowd and said, "let's try that again." No mistakes were made in Liz's next songs, "Uncle Alvarez" and the popular "Polyester Bride," with the latter being played at a much faster tempo than the album track. There was a brief lull on the stage, and with some added flair and excitement, Liz and her band started into the 1994 hit "Supernova." The audience cheered loudly, and many people on the floor were dancing and singing along. The band dispersed suddenly, and Liz, standing alone on the left side of the stage, sang her sex-anthem, "Flower." As I looked up across the balconies and crowd, I saw that every person was standing and watching Liz, completely transfixed. Liz got her guitar back but immediately handed it off for her next song, the upbeat "What Makes You Happy," and she started to dance around the stage when she wasn't singing. Wielding a new, purple guitar, Liz sang two huge crowd favorites, "Mesmerizing" and "Divorce Song;" and it was at this point that the entire crowd went into a frenzy. After "Divorce Song" started, I couldn't stand it anymore and forced my way to the front of the stage, trying to get closer to Liz. Using a cigarette as a crowd-breaker, I accomplished my goal in getting extremely close to the front, and Liz went into her latest album's title track, "White Chocolate Space Egg." Liz, stretching her arms out over her head while singing, appeared extremely calm. The stage then went dark, and the audience cheered for Liz. She did not disappoint, and she came back to the stage quickly and sang "Perfect World." Everyone became silent and Liz's voice was beautiful. After the song and more cheering, I yelled "STRATFORD!" up at Liz, and she looked in my direction and smirked. Then my wish was amazingly fulfilled I heard the opening drum beats to "Stratford-On-Guy." I was ecstatic. Most of the fans near the stage knew every word to the song, and it also seemed to be a crowd-favorite. The last song of the encore and the show was "Fuck And Run," and this song drew the biggest cheers of the evening. When the song was finished, Liz Phair left the stage for the last time, leaving only pure gratification in her wake.

I must say that the Boston show was also amazing. Played all my favorites (Divorce Song, Stratford-On-Guy, Support System, and even Dance of the Seven Veils!), and Liz was, well...HOT! I know it's pretty cliche, but she was....unnnnngggg...HOT, when she sang "Flower." The slide show went on for too long (almost 3 cycles). Liz was so animated and self-assured, and didn't sound nervous at all. She seemed very "at home" at Avalon, responding to cat calls and telling the audience that "it means a lot to me that you're here, a lot more than you know." That was sweet. I loved the amped up version of "Fuck and Run." A bass line adds a lot to that song. "What Makes You Happy" rocked out, big time, whith Liz going crazy at the end. All in all it was a wonderful show. I danced my ass off. On a side note: Did anyone notice that if you take the WCSE case apart, underneath the white plastic is a large eye. Creepy. It's been staring at us the whole time, and we never even knew it.

I like it. That cheeky, poppy part in it (the refrain? chorus?) sounds like a nursery rhyme or a campfire song. Sounds like something Liz used to her advantage in some of her "girlysound" songs (Sometimes A Dream, etc). Maybe Courtney's a fan. OK, that was a hell of a stretch. Is the rest of that album any good?

Just wondering because they said that one of her songs was on there and I believe it might be the one that brought me to tears. If you know what song it was, please name the tune! Hmmmmm...I told my Miss Know It All friend about the responses I got about Turning Japanese and told her its about masturbation. She couldn't get the picture. I guess she doesn't pay much attention to the lyrics. Another thing, I know I have the lyrics to Liz's songs printed out from some one's page, but haven't looked at them in ages. I noticed that her lyrics are really complicated and does look like they took time to write because I'm still trying to figure them out myself w/out using the cheat sheet! I was listening to the two different versions of Supernova and only noticed the differences just now. I hate it when they bleep out some words, to me it's kind of pointless because if you know the lyrics to the song, you still hear it coming through the bleepings, or in Supernova's case, through what sounded like extra drummings. Just wanted to give a wave to all those people have been hiding and listen to us talk about Liz. It's cool, just would like to hear a hello from you as well!

I am going to be riding on this one for a long time. Liz was awesome, the venue was awesome and it gets better!!! I was waiting around after the show to see if I could meet her and the security guys were being stupid. Then they started letting people with meet and greet passes backstage, so I asked one of the guys with a pass to bring something back to have her sign for me. Turn out the guy was from EMI and gave my friends and I passes. I swear I died and went to heaven. I met Liz! I talked to her at length! She signed my EIG CD! She was so cool and so sweet. And I made the guy from EMI my new hero. I didn't have a damn camera with me, though. -Sara Mack PS- To all of you who e-mailed me about the broadcast tapes - I got your message and I got the recording, so e-mail me addresses or whatever and well work things out. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Oct 1998 12:11:27 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeffrey Larson Subject: stuff to answer your question MrE, she didn't play stratford-on-guy at the san francisco show, woe is me! and to Jen, Stuck on an Island is on the Whats Up Matador? compilation cd. later jeff "it started off slow but it's picking up speed and it's gaining on me like a carnivore" -Liz Phair ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Oct 1998 16:02:43 EDT From: AngelLieb@aol.com Subject: Liz influences Hey everybody!

I think it's real sly that she played it after Johnny >Feelgood...sort of like a two-part song if you look at it that way. > >Thanks you guys for answering my question. Shoot me in the head for >forgetting the instrumental part of "Shatter" in my original list!!!! If this was in reference to the 9:30 club show, it was Dance of the Seven Veils, not Johnny Sunshine (honest mistake), and it sounded really good :) jason ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 Oct 1998 17:34:05 EDT From: DeadShark@aol.com Subject: 2 Extra Philly tickets Hi everyone, Sorry this is soooooo late but I have 2 extra tickets to the Philly show tonight.

Dave Matthews used to at least have an established frat-boy crowd. it's a good thing DMB doesn't use metal detectors at the door, 'cause most of thier audience's braces would set the fucker off. liz phair was hot and she rocked. an A+ in my book. heck no to techno, rf ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V1 #36 ***********************************
