    I do; and while I still respect her a lot for her art I think Little Plastic Castle was her last great record.

    Also, as mush as her shows can be intense (and at times they are not when all the fucking girls in the audience are screaming and howling at a fucking acoustic show) I think playing 75 minutes is lame.

    Again, I think she put out some great records and she's a brilliant songwriter.

    LOVED the MonkeyWrench broadcast when EV played 'Fuel' before it's official release.
    Trading magic for fact, no tradebacks... So this is what it's like to be an adult...

    I have few records, love them all actually. I've been wanting to get Dilate for some time now. I really want to hear Joyful Girl cos Soulive did a wicked version of it with Dave Matthews.

    But I heard she's taking a break because of wrist pains or something....

    me too! me too!!!!!!:D:D:D:D

    Her newest dvd Trust is unbelievably amazing and Knuckle Down blew me away!! Puddle Dive, Evolve and LPC are also fantastic albums...hell, they all are!

    I saw her live for the first time last April...she put on one of the best shows I've ever witnessed. She played and sang her heart out. And the way she interacted with the crowd...it felt like one huge family in the building at once. I've even been to her headquarters in Buffalo. The people there were so nice, they gave me and my bf a tour of the building and we got to sign a guestbook. They showed us Ani's office (she wasn't in that day :() We got to see her Grammy which was still it the box it came in :D Then before we left they gave us an offical boot and said anyone that drives over 100 miles gets one...how cool is that?! They also gave us a bunch of promotional posters from different tours and such. It was awesome.

    I just love Ani!!!!!! <3

    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way
