i heart jenny lewis!!


well, having finally had a spare second to sit down and blog, i can now revel in the beauty that was saturday nite! sweet sigh! jenny lewis was totally, completely, wonderfully amazing!! having reached almost new levels of inner excitement i was on the verge of exploding when, half way thru being served at the bar i heard the opening bars of her first song of the nite coming from the other room!! having marked saturday in my diary for weeks i am please to report she did not disappoint, and i fear i now have a complete female crush, haha! her vocals were rich and warm, she managed to pull off high waisted jeans and a polka dot, swim-suit style top with a hat and chunky red necklace in a way that almost had u rushing out to do the same (i say almost because in real life, there's just no way i could ever make that work!!!), and her stage presence was so captivating!

performing a perfect mix of songs from her latest album Acid Tongue, and some of her older stuff it was one of my favourite gigs, ever!! Under the blacklight was fabulous and a nice wee surprise toward the end! rich and scott were also v excited (on the inside, u could tell!!) but we had a bit of debate over her stage performance! scott felt she didn't really bring much performance wise, but really, when u ooze that much soul there's no need to prance around or whip up some audience interaction! everything about her was totally mesmerizing- she's so confident and even got away with kneeling down and crouching over whilst singing; she drank her water in time with the band, and just sounded wonderful!!! so, i guess i officially love her!!

i also had a wee peek thru the window of her tour bus and saw some very exciting, star- esque items such as, erm, a bowl of fruit, mircowave, kettle and some paper!!! oh yes, it was pretty cool!!
