WHERE THE HOKEY POKEY "IS" WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

Kristin/Muses/50 Ft Wave

Posted over 2 years ago
If you aren't into this lady's music, maybe you should be. I've been a fan since ..well Throwing Muses - Throwing Muses. But what is really entertaining is reading her tour diaries. Imagine a fairly well established (80's-00's+) indie rocker, add children, dogs, spouse, and band etc.. put them in a bus and tell about it. Ok it sounds kind of played. But the writing is really interesting. One time I was reading it and she talked about pulling into a truck stop and pulling out one of her own teeth that had gone bad.

  2. Girlcrawl says Have long been a Throwing Muses fan, and saw them perform numerous times; their 4AD debut is still one of my favourite albums. Kristen Hirsh is a talent beyond description, and love her solo work as well - it's exceptional. Excellent post!

  3. doombilly says yeah I remember the weather on the day I bought the first TMuses longplayer. I didn't get to see them until the 90's when only she and Dave were left of the orig lineup. But still rocking! The Flaming Lips were the openers. Caught Belly about a month later in the same venue. Good times. Kristin can rock the guitar like Hendrix, write like Patti Smith and spew soul out her lips like no one's bidness.
