I know! She played sooo long. I also had to leave at the last song to catch my (last) bus home! That was the only annoying thing about it. ;D Poor girl got her foot run over after the first show in Ireland. I still tink that is a funny way to start a tour.

A million thanks Saar for have made me discover this amazing songwriter i didn't know her before (just know Dresden Dolls by name, shame on me Her album is so awesome, i bought it immediately and a concert ticket and saw her in Paris the last October 23 in a very small and intimist parisian concert hall (La Boule Noire). My god, what an oustanding concert, by far my best concert in a very long time!!! Fabulous energy on stage, beautiful set-list, pure genius artist. The show was unique and the Danger Ensemble full of fabulous black humor... My favorites are Guitar Hero, Astronaut, Leed United and the extraordinary ballad Blake Says I really adore Amanda Palmer and i'm discovering the fabulous universe of The Dresden Dolls thanks to you. Thanks and thanks again Saar A Radiohead cover this night... fr.youtube.com/watch?v=G-8Mg7Z6zAk

^ Aww YAY that's awesome, Mari!!! Finding new music is just pure bliss! I'll check out the Radiohead cover. I got my signed Amanda Palmer cd today, I got it twice, there was a fuck-up... the send me a signed Amanda Palmer cd and then another one, but it's also signed by Ben Folds (that's the one I should have gotten in the first place)... but now I have the album twice, both signed!

No such luck (oh well, I have no clue who Ben Folds is anyway, I just wanted everything that I paid for).
Anyway, the rest of our shipments should ship on November 21st (grrr...how long do we have to wait for those t-shirts...I'm not going to be able to wear it until next spring).

I'm so happy you had such a good time, Saar! I hope I can see her solo some day, but when I saw the Dolls they were amazing, she was amazing so I can only imagine how wonderful the show was!

^ Thanks doll, I hope you'll see her solo one day as well, EVERYONE should! I'm hoping she's coming back to Europe. Have you guys seen the 'Oasis' video? It's just BRILLIANT! youtube.com/watch?v=mUba4aq8imknauticalnun, aww... mjah I'm no Ben Folds fan, but when I ordered my bundle I got an email saying I had one of the limited signed copies (Amanda and Ben signings). I read on the Dresden Dolls forum that everyone who had the two signed copy, have received two signed copies... what a fuck up!

Am I wrong, or are the only songs without videos "Have to Drive" and "Blake Says"? She needs to make the videos for those already. I just saw Oasis and Leeds United...loved them both

According to her and everyone who I know that went to the show, it was the best show. I started the year with the Dresden Dolls show and it would have been lovely to end it with seeing just Amanda. Can you believe NEIL GAIMAN was at the Chicago show?! He opened her set with a "eulogy".

I just saw Oasis and Leeds United...loved them both I hear ya on the vid front! Have to Drive is probably one of my fav songs off of the album, I hope the video gives me better insight into what the song's about. And I L O V E the vid for Oasis... especially because #1 She dedicated it to Sarah Palin, and #2 Because it's in response to the Catholic Vote 2008. I love a woman who's not afraid to speak (or sing) her mind!!
