'how many strong, kick-ass, pirate bitches are out there tonight?'

's' and i went to the esthero concert tonight and despite the unusually high number of short people (there were so many guys and gals who were shorter than me! i could see the tops of their heads, they weren't midgets but 4'10"-ish people. nouveau-punkies but mini!) i somehow frequently got stuck behind tall men.

all that doesn't really matter though! i finally got to see esthero in concert - live after all these years! she told us that tonight's concert was the first in five years.

she came out wearing a deep purple, poofy petticoat with striped stockings, faux pearls and a black t-shirt w/ a pirate skull on it. she is really hung up on this pirate theme. after introducing us to her 8 piece band and two backup singers, she said, 'and i am esthero lily (something, something) of the (something, something .. sorry i've forgotten!) pirate ship'

man! this girl can sing! she can go soft and girly to loud and diva-y all in one song. she danced and pranced around singing new songs and performed upbeat, latino variations on her old songs.

she ended her 2nd encore with her newest track: we R in need of a musical ReVoLuTion

another very cool canadian chick.

:) Hikki's english releases are horrible but why the hostility?

that's exactly why i'm so disappointed in hikki! she has such talent yet her english releases are all SO bad. not just kinda bad cheezy, but down right baaaad. i don't understand!

i'm glad you are a regular reader! thanks for always stopping by :)

... so when are you going to stop being 'anonymous'?

Oh man I really missed out. I love the rare occasions when I meet people shorter than me :). 4'10" cute girls are the cutest! haha.

Sounds like a good time.
