Absolutely briliant performance, only slightly spoiled by a combination of a) stupid hecklers and b) a slightly over-reverential audience (e.g. someone shouting out "do you mind if we sing along?" and assorted goons shouting "you're gorgeous"). Gorgeous she ain't, talented she is. Great voice, great guitar playing, great piano playing. Good selection of material from White Chalk, Songs from the City and even some much older stuff - including the only rendition of Sheelagh na Gig that she's done on the tour. Amazing stage presence and just a really special gig to have been at.

Muzak, how about writing a quicker 200-300 word review and submitting it?

Posted By jan on 20 Dec 2007 7:05 AM she's reinvented the metronome! ace gig quite... ...that was one of my highlights when she used that in 'the devil'... other highlights: the white robe... the hip-hoppety section where she boogied on down with the keyboards and gizmo programmer thingamamjig... sheela-na-gig "shall we lynch him?"

Yikes, could have done without that view starbelgrade! Yep was a perfect gig, she was sweet, funny, beautiful, and has more talent than any other female musician in the world if you ask me. Why on earth some knob would think it was funny to shout up "Well its all s**te so far" or something similar just after the most perfect song, I'll never know. Why do hecklers exist?!
