I got the latest Strokes cd and a Carla Bruni cd - and both are awesome - though quite different from one another!

Kenny Chesney makes me laugh.

He seems to enjoy life.

okay...so am I getting weird or what??
I keep hearing this new group and REALLY like it:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0007QS4KK/bookstorenow55-20/103-0281720-8937436

sort of pop opera. the song I keep hearing is an older tony braxton song (which I never liked too much back then). I think they sing it in italian (my italian isn't that great anymore)

Damn, tell me I am not getting weird.

just saw a free concert in the park at lunchtime

they totally rocked. i'm listening to their CD now.

they play in the capital district all the time and do some shows in VT, MA, NH, and CT.



SIRSY is fronted by the charismatic Melanie Krahmer with a "stunning voice capable of a lion's roar and a floaty whisper"... a girl "with the lungs of a teenage athlete and the growl of a sixty-something blues singer"... a girl who "plays Ian Anderson-esque flute solos", and "drums like a rockstar-- standing up, no less!". Krahmer shares the stage with cowriter, Rich Libutti, a "dynamo on both bass and guitar" with a "stage wit and explosive energy all his own".
Since SIRSY's incarnation in the spring of 2000, they have accrued an enormous list of accomplishments that would seem impossible for an unsigned band.
Playing over 250 shows per year, they've shared the stage with Maroon5, Collective Soul, Cheap Trick, Blues Traveler, and more! Hailed by the Boston Globe, the Village Voice (NYC), and more SIRSY is said to sound "even better live than on their critically acclaimed recordings". "Sirsy's live show is always brimming with enough energy and raw passion to stir the soul". Perhaps this explains their large and devoted cult following...
This IS their day job. Yes, the members of sirsy play their music for their living. Yes, that means they're broke, but it also means they're hungry and passionate and ALWAYS working at their craft. You won't find a more devoted band...
