Amanda Palmer
For those of you from, or familiar with Newcastle… that was filmed upstairs at the Great Northern, right near Newcastle station. The tatty walls fit with the song, I think. I haven’t been in the bar area since uni, how about you?

Amanda Palmer just announced some “sideshows” for the launch of her Aussie themed album, including at the National Gallery of Australia on Feb 1st!
Tickets are on sale on 20th Dec – looks like through Ticketek.
There are other shows around Australia too if you don’t wanna visit the Awesomeness that is Canberra :p

i have to drive
i have my reasons, deer
it’s cold outside
i hate the seasons herei suffer mornings most of all
i feel so powerless and small
by 10 o’clock i’m back in bed
fighting the jury in my head
Amanda Palmer – Have to Drive.
Some mornings are hard, get out of bed, have to shower, evaluate the day. Set about it. It improves, usually, as it goes on, no matter what mood my head or my stomach were in first thing. At times, it doesn’t, so I head back home. Down the hill. Past the pretty flowers. But I don’t drive. Not to work. Unless I have “things” to do. Appointments. That need to be rushed to between clients. Between work. Between the outside world.
(The Who Killed Amanda Palmer videos – do it.)

No photos from the gig, since it was truly awesome and I spent the whole time falling in love with her even more, but got a few outside the Opera House, on the steps ;)
There were so many girls in awesome corsets, petticoats, hats, dresses… didn’t snap any (focussed) shots of them though.
Fairy Bread!

I’ll admit the style or the content o f Amanda Palmer or the Dresden Doll’s music is not for everyone. But I have a thing for upbeat songs which may be able the world ending, depression, suicide… or in the case of Oasis by Amanda Palmer – abortion, date rape and Oasis fangirlism (a href=”http://www.metrolyrics.com/oasis-lyrics-amanda-palmer.html”>lyrics).
So, of course, I’m interested in when she blogs that she can’t get the song played on UK stations and certainly not the film clip – with references to Sarah Palin, and a hot nurse bottle feeding a newborn baby beer. It’s such a bouncy song, and I love a dark sense of humour.
If you haven’t, watch the film clip and perhaps read Amanda’s blog entry. And then never listen to her again if you don’t like it. But I do :)
