1. It's good to read your take on the Sarah Shannon. Copacetic by Velocity
Girl is a shimmering slab of pop and her singing is amazing. Their debut
was pretty good and the follow up was a bit too slick. So maybe this solo
plate will finally be a true follow up to Copacetic.
2. Stewart, if you're ever in Chicago, Patricia Barber performs often in
her hometown. She used to do a regular turn at The Green Mill. The picture
they always used in their ads made her look somewhat like Boy George wearing
librarian glasses (as opposed to Lisa Loeb).
