    Yeah I TOTALLY agree w/you on that one! ;)

    <~~ blastin Entertain

    These drums!!! WOOOOO!!!! :D Janet ROCKS SO HARD! :D

    I also looove the break down at the end of this song "(Dont drag me down,
    I'm not falling down)". Incredible! The Woods has so many layers...so many songs sound like they just tranform into completely different songs halfway through...and just when you think that's the case the girls bring back the original song and tie it all together. Amazing! Such kick ass jams and break downs on this album. They really are just getting better and better if ya ask me. :D

    Entertain sure is rockin & catchy as hell!

    I just went on Sleater-kinney.net and our little Carrie is ill, so they had to cancel their European tour b/c her doctors advised her not to travel...GET WELL CARRIE!!

    We love you girl!!:)

    <~~~listening to my "WOMEN WHO ROCK!" playlist on my itunes, and Wilderness just came on...this song kicks ASS!! I swear, by their lyrics, they are SO in love with California :D
    This song, is one of my favorites off of their new album, this one, Entertain, Modern Girl, Night Lights, and What's Mine Is Yours are the highlights for me. KEEP ON ROCKIN' GIRLS!! :D:D:D

    ~WILDERNESS~
    Kenny and Linda on the way to Chelan
    transmission’s shot, no back up plan
    will they hitch a ride?
    or get into a fight?

    moved to the West Coast
    packed up their things
    the winters are gray
    now so are the dreams
    they tried, to make it all right

    all our little wishes have run dry
    made it to the water, waded in the lies
    when we felt the heat
    couldn’t turn it into fire
    too caught up in our own desires

    said “I Do” in the month of May
    said “I Don’t” just the very next day
    will they try again?
    or is it doom for them?

    moved to a city
    where hippies run wild
    everything’s white
    now so are the smiles
    they tried, to fight the good fight

    all our little wishes have run dry
    made it to the water, waded in the lies
    when we felt the heat
    couldn’t turn it into fire
    too caught up in our own desires

    we’re split right in half
    it’s making me crazy
    a two-headed brat
    tied to the other for life

    a family feud
    the Red and the Blue now
    it’s Truth against Truth
    I’ll see you in hell, I don’t mind

    all our little wishes have run dry
    made it to the water, waded in the lies
    when we felt the heat
    couldn’t turn it into fire
    too caught up in our own desires

    We finally got some films developed...

    and we found one picture we took of Carrie and Janet on the street in London.

    :D

    Hubby only took one picture cuz they knew a picture was being taken so we stopped in respond to their body language.

    Here you go:

    That was pretty close to Rockwaters wasn't it. Great shot!

    Yeah, I think so. :)

    It was only two blocks down from the hotel we were staying at... I wonder if they stayed there, too! Darn.

    Thanks, PBM. :D

    Too bad we didn't take more pictures...especially up close! They didn't seem comfortable with that so we didn't.... ahhh.

    I would have never noticed them if Bobby hadn't pointed them out half a block away!

    I don't know how he does that.... he pays attention, I guess. hehe

    There's a story here somewhere.... :D

    Yes we had met Carrie the day before in Kitchener and chatted with her for about 15 minutes in a record store.

    Carrie got us in the Detroit show for free... and we got to chat with her after the show as well. :D

    She remembered us...that was cool. :)

    Janet is really funny! She sniffed on my marker (it was really thick) and acted "high". Hilarious.

    Corin is just...beautiful! Way more than in the pictures. I can't believe how good she looks after having a kid.... :p

    I told them they better come back to Detroit and they said they would next year. :D

    If memory serves, they stayed at the Delta. Does that sound right? I know it was a small hotel compared to where Pearl Jam stayed.

    Who had time to stalk, my ass was worn out in London. I ate $7.00 worth of chips out of the snack maching in the hotel lobby.

    S~K is a great band to see live. I HIGHLY recommend seeing them in smaller venues though :)

    I think there should be MORE love for these girls, hey, if it wasn't for them, we would still have shitty music made by A&R agents. *shudders at the thought of that*

    BUMP FOR S~K LOVE~~~ :D
