what would the community think is her masterpiece. that is the sound of pure fucking desolation, being in a hole

Started listening to this now. Don't know if it will turn out to be Tron or Field Day.

So, she broke?

should i go see her when she comes to philly?

pros: i love her music
cons: chances are good she won't finish the show?

I don't think she's "not finished a show" in years and years.

Based on the show I saw, and what I've read of the others, these are some of the most confounding shows she's ever played. They begin really shaky (so much so that a lot of people leave) and then end triumphantly. At times the juxtaposition between the good and the bad felt deliberate, almost as if she was faking the bad parts. I tossed around some theories about what might have been going on in my review of the show, but really, I have no idea what she was going for.

Anyway, as a fan I'm glad I went, because it was an experience and when she hits her stride it's still really glorious.

looked at a few setlists and found almost nothing from moon pix or wwtct, but a TON of covers. uninterested. love her new hairdo tho

might be worth going just to do a head-count of all different eras of cat power haircuts the audience is miming

maybe like a cat power people's choice awards, researched without having actually talked to anyone
