Until Tomorrow Then

Over the last week or so I have read several stellar reviews of the recent reissue of Ed Harcourt's 2006 album 'The Beautiful Lie', and still I never got around to checking it out.Then, when I saw that he was opening up for the Gutter Twins show here on July 31, my curiosity got the better of me and I finally took the plunge. A smart move.Heartbreakingly dark lyrics recited over beautiful piano led arrangements abound on this modern classic. I haven't been able to stop listening to these songs for a week now. I catch myself singing his words WAY too often. Just a must listen. Really.

satisfiedmind2 says I know a girl that looks suspiciously like you who used to spend a LOT of time at Mr Dulli's bar...what a coincidence!

ngtivspace says She sounds awesome. How come we never drank there? Were you afraid of us accidentally running into him, and me causing a scene? Come to think of it, that was probably a good call on your part.

ngtivspace says Then again, I braved the Minnie Driver show.

satisfiedmind2 says And by braved you mean fell in love with her too! I was there...and I remember!! Man, the Shortstop is on the LONG, depressing list of places I never got drink at in LA...and you making a scene over Dulli IN his bar would have shot to the top of my LA memories...with a bullet!! I only got to see one quasi-scene for you...and you were upstaged that night by an obliterated Evan Dando!
