Neko at the Museum

[markjwilder]

So, I went to the Field Museum last night and saw a concert. IT RULED. It was right in the main hall, with fighting bull elephants and Sue the T-rex looking on. The opening act was Trailer Bride (they're playing tonight at The Hideout, but I don't think I'm going). They were a good alt-country band. If you like Neko Case's solo stuff, then I think you'll like this band. I just purchased their album online, so I'll let you know more.... Neko came on, accompianied by just a slide guitar/banjo player and a stand-up bass player (Tom Ray, formerly of Sonic Voodoo). She played a good 15 songs or so, and it was amazing. The museum hall is very echoy and it really highlighted her voice well. Simply great. And I get to see her again tomorrow. Yay for that! I have a small crush on her. I tried to take some pictures with my camera-phone, but they didn't come out very well at all. I'll try again when I see her tomorrow.

Sounds like a precedent. "Your honor, pursuant to the precedent set in the Neko case, I move to have the evidence excluded and the charges dismissed."

"Your honor, I object! He's Foo Fighting the witness!"

I don't know anything about Neko Case's music, but I know Neko is Japanese for cat, and I gotta love that.

I for some odd reason clicked on the wrong one, i actually DON'T know her stuff.

That other Niko chick though... from the 70's... or 80's with the weird voice.. I do know. This one... no.
