I have such a crush on the singer I saw last night.

Seriously, it's like my peer group got together and designed the sexiest girl they could imagine. A hard drinking Irish girl, with Sioux sense of style and EvilDrEm's size of boobies, who sings the works of Nick Cave and Tom Waites.

I am so very happy I got to see her act, and if she ever plays somewhere obtainable I'll be making everyone go.

She kept apologising that she only had time to do a mere handful of Nick Cave songs and that we deserved more but there was so little time but she'd be getting pissed in the bar later and singing the ones she'd not time to do in her act. *sob*

Her and her band were better than I can imagine being no matter how many years I practiced.

Cave, Waites, Bowie, the country version of "Hurt". Seriously, this was like the band and lead singer from "Chicago" was gotten really really drunk by the Dresdon Dolls and decided to become a goth. (although dammit, Amanda Palmer is playing later in the month after I'm gone!)

Genuinely; I laughed, I cried. I can't find a video of the song she opened with but it appears to be a David Bowie song I didn't know.

I feel privileged! And I wonder if she's single? I'm confident that Caroline would forgive me if I defended my case with a photograph and a setlist.
